Flight to La Palma. The journey from Gran Canaria takes just 45 minutes, a perfect time for reflection. As we soar over Tenerife, I settle into my seat, enjoying the solitude as no one is beside me to converse with. I recline slightly and manage to close my eyes, lulled by the sounds of takeoff. In this state, like the aircraft, I ascend, ever higher into the clouds. I find myself suspended in a soft, dreamlike realm, where various impressions swirl around me, indistinguishable from one another. It is only when the clouds begin to clear that I am able to grasp a singular thought.
