Danas je bio jako čudan dan.

I ovo je jako čudan izražaj.

Hteo je da izadje

iako se moj um protivio.

Zaplesali smo

usidrili se

i um i ja.

Um je otišao na spavanje

a srce se probudilo

i progovorilo.

I bilo nam je prelepo. Svom trojici.

🙂

Za tebe

koji si ceo život trčao oko tudjih kuća

misleći da su tvoje.

Za tebe

koja si počela da gradiš svoju kuću

i znaš kako je jebeno dobar osećaj.

Za vas je ova priča.

Priča nastala u hodu bukvalno i metaforično. Priča koja je i mene samog iznenadila

početkom, sredinom i krajem.

So, I guess this is the start of something new. New to you, but familiar to me. I’ve always had this inate gift, but I never actually put it to use. I am a storyteller. And a peculiar one for that matter. This gift that I have is that I can make a story out of anything. Literally. I found that out in my early twenties. And I put it to the test. I asked somebody to give me one image and I’ll tell him an entire story based on it. And voíla. It turned out to be quiet a good story. Also, I’ve noticed that in this modern world, parents don’t read their kids bedtime stories anymore. Isn’t that sad? It’s a whole world they’re missing on. A world of kings, queens and castles. A world in which children fall asleep with the sound of their parent’s voice. And I want to bring that back. But in a new way. So recently l felt a calling from my soul to share my gift with people. I guess I am ready. And I guess you are also. 🙂

So, from now on, this podcast will have a segment called “Bedtime stories”.

Yey! Isn’t that neat? 🥰

Honestly, I have no idea what they’re gonna be about because I will make them up live, as I’m recording. All I know is they will be made for children, but also for you, the adult children. 🙂And they will be weird, because I’m weird. They will come weekly, not quite sure about the schedule, but I’ll work it out along the way. Some of them will be in english and some in serbian. Don’t quite know how I’ll decide, but I’ll work it out along the way. 🤓

Anyway, enjoy. ❤️

Dragi moji, došlo je vreme da jedan čudesni dar koji mi je poklonjen podelim i sa vama. Dar pripovedanja. Iliti meni draže - storytelling. Uvek sam se osećao kao storyteller, ali nikada nisam i delio to sa ljudima. Bio sam uplašen. Uplašen da se izrazim, da pokažem ko je zapravo Dušan. I to tek sada shvatam. To je jedan od onih strahova koji se ukotvi u luku duše i u mraku stoji godinama dok ga budj i morske alge ne pokriju u potpunosti. Da na kraju i ne znaš da je tu. I tek kad sam od skoro počeo da govorim, ali zaista Govorim svoju istinu, shvatio sam koliko dugo sam ćutao. Ovo je početak jednog novog izražaja na Leonovski podkastu i izuzetno sam srećan što je došlo vreme da ga podelim sa tobom.

Pričaću ti priče za laku noć.

Priče koje će nastati u trenutku.

Priče kojima ni sam ne znam početak, sredinu i kraj.

Možeš ih slušati pred san ili pred dan.

Možeš ih puštati svom detetu, unutrašnjem ili spoljašnjem.

Ne mogu ti reći kakve će biti, jer ni sam ne znam.

Ali, dve stvari znam: biće redovne i biće čudne. Znam i treću stvar: biće na engleskom i srpskom.

Uživaj i neka ti donesu onoliko sreće koliko i meni.

🙂🙏

Usred ovog ne-mira, otišao sam u mir na selo. Fruška Gora, Stara Bingula, mala kuća usred šume. Milina... 🙂

O odmoru koji nam je svima potreban

O prirodnom ritmu prirode

O duši koja je negde izmedju tu noć pred put

O restrikcijama toka na planeti

O smrti komarca uživo

O probijanju vanzemaljskog leda

O mom novom rodjendanu

O Njoj

O prozorima kroz koje se vide oblaci

O oblacima koji se menjaju češće nego ljudi

O čudnom zvuku u mojoj sobi

O putevima kojim niko nije išao

Oh, my...did I enjoy this one. 🙂

And also in the middle of recording, I made some great breakthroughs.

Hehe break-through...

Now, there’s a new baby of the word “break”. Which I talked about actually...along with this thing that we are going through globally. This dis-ease. 🙂

And which words we use when we talk about it. Because words define us. They are a filter of the world in us and around us.

About why words matter

About words spoken and words written

About caterpillars and butterflies

About the situation in USA

About air and breathing

About masks and how I recently started wearing them for the first time

About the planet Earth and how it’s all connected

About how Gaia is helping us

About finding our own voice

About our inner child
