MY BRAIN HURTS

MY BRAIN HURTS

On the door of a comfort room hangs a poster with a picture of somehow angry man ready to attack. Written in bold letters is the caption: My Brain Hurts. Now how can one feel comfortable in any room when one’s brain hurts? So, you begin asking, what is in this room? It doesn’t suggest it is a comfort room and that’s what makes you feel more curious that your urge to open it and find out gets stronger and stronger as time passed-by.

Speaking of time you glance at the wall clock to find out that the time indeed is right but there is something wrong with the clock. It is a mirror image of a clock except that the hands are not at the right position. A little to the right and above the clock hangs a quotation: Live well, Love much, Laugh often… he-he-he!!! It is really interesting...then you are toured around the garden that like Paradise and Gethsemane has no exotic flowers and colorful blooms but trees of different varieties. After the tour you would have finished a 400 step walk that resulted into a double loop that created a crooked figure of eight. You would have encountered countless shrubs and ornamental, each one of them exuding out positive vibrations beneficial to your health. Unknowingly though, you also exuded out carbon dioxide and other by-product of metabolism very much needed by the plants. Then you feel a new vim, a new vigor and a new vitality because after that symbiotic existence with nature for a while, you are actually energized.

While before the simple and interesting exercise your brain actually hurts, now you simply feel great… you entered the “Brain Hurt” room and find it not only a comfort room but as one British Priest exclaimed one time, “Come everyone, this is a museum!”

So, back to the Terrace of Merriment where you can see the Balcony of Reconciliation, this time waiting for a especially prepared brewed coffee. After having seen the Friendship Nook, the Rosary Corner,the Meditation site, the Scream Out Area, The Counseling Corner The owner’s Grave site and the Hut for Amicable Settlement near the Wishing Well you just feel like staying overnight at the jetterrhaus to cherish the genuine sound of nature. Who says my brain hurts? I am in fact fully revitalized and completely rejuvenated. Thank you for my jardin GAUDOM experience one Saturday. -( from a guest)
