Zitat von KingaThanks to Ludy, here is Apple's story again. I hoped that Apple did save it but thankfully Ludy did it. " title="hug" />
Great story and I'm sad that the conversation following the story got deleted.
You're welcome guys!!!! " title="hug" /> Here is the link you can find all Apple's stories from Kimi's time in the WRC: http://www.octetort.com/search/label/St ... 0Appletree
I always post them in my blog because Apple's stories need to be shared " title="hi" /> " title="ty" />
"Tree?, does it hurt much?" I asked quietly and touched the old and wrinkled branch that had suffered in a storm that went by the other day. I had found christmas flowers( altho it had been too warm and the flowers had blossomed ages ago but I have my ways to tempt the flowers to do it again) just for my tree to cheer it up. It had been nervous as the normal way of life had once again been disturbed. It isnt normal for us to have no ice in the lake at this time of year. It isnt normal but not entirely new to have no snow at the ground at this time of the year. "No, but as you know , the trees are all united. One tree is part of the net. Its very comforting to know you have a support of thousands of trees when you have lost something. " "Are you all worried what happens in the world?" " Ofcourse. We are part of this world. And the worlds that has gone by. You never forget the past and the past never forgets you." "How do I get the feeling you are saying words that mean something else?" "Dont I always say? By the way, do I look nice in these flowers?" And the tree filled it branches with the christmas flowers I had put there. "You are the only white thing in here right now! "We just have to wait for january to get ice and something white, and you know I always want to be the first one." Tree raised its nose and I spotted the red apple up there. "Now who is going to get that one?" "You´ll see. Go on , just do the flying thing of yours and I quide you to your destination." "I thought you are the one who puts me to fly" "You have done it by yourself." "And now you say it!! I have walked thru the mud and rocks and dust and god knows what ever( weirdly I thought they really knew what) with my bear foot !" "Does it help if I say you dont have to do it next year?" "No." "There is the memories for you." Tree smiled to me very gently and I just began to fly by the pure joy. The tree has a very nice smile.
Tree made me go thru the whole round . You know what. The rally round. Every rally Kimi had driven..or tried to . I felt the exitement of the first rallies of new born team, Ice One, and also funnily I felt the sweet bitter feeling Kimi had when he was showelling snow around his car..he enjoyed it because it was so different and he felt he is living again. I flew over the desert, saw the people who followed Kimi, firmly hand in hand, and those who never came along, were not forgotten. They lived in memories and stories the people told to each other.
I saw the dust and sand to take new places and hide the tyre marks Kimi had left behind him but the sound and the smells and the pictures will never be swallowed by the sand. I saw the trees and rocks that had gotten their piece of the action and only some that have been watching carefully, know the places and they will never forget, because its part of the important story.
The story itself began to have a shape later in summer.I saw how Kimi was seeking the answers by driving nascar trucks and Le mans car..and I knew he was asking "who am I". He had to do that because the "tree net" around him had changed. Now he had two worlds, the bygone world and the world he will create from ashes he left behind him. Because you cant forget the ashes..they are there and sometimes you can create something beautiful by accepting the thruth and hitting your head to the wall, like Kimi does. And now Kimi is hitting his head to the wall. And we see whats on the other side of it. Because Kimi will break the wall. I flew back to the tree and stayed in the air above the tree for a while. One person, who really earned his apple, was there, talking with tree and shaking its hand and then disappearing behind the unseen curtain of future..I hope, Kaj, someday I hear from you.
