Logbook of the Stellar Journey – Part I
We find ourselves traveling in search of a star. It is not just any star. It is a star of Light. My name is Love, and I am a ‘Sentiscientive Tale’. We have been preparing for many, many months. Exactly three hundred thirty-three days, about eleven months since this strange adventure began to take shape. My father already warned us. Traveling is like this. It takes time. A lot of time and dedication. And devotion to what you do. It’s not like all those people who say they travel, and who then are nothing more than simple tourists. Tourists who barely end up doing no more than a bunch of photos, but to whom it doesn’t even matter at all where they have been or why.
My father was an explorer since he was very little. He says he was born that way. He taught me to appreciate explorers. The explorer departs and travels without knowing where he is going, and when he arrives, he never knows where he is. And yet, no fear stops him from his purpose. An explorer is essentially someone in love. Because only Love can inspire, move, and excite the soul in that way.
Sometimes I think my father named me that for a reason. He wanted me to be an explorer.
Although I have to confess that I also adore travelers. The traveler is not like the explorer. Not exactly. And it’s not that they have any less merit for that. The traveler knows where they are going. What they don’t know is when they will return. But they don’t care, because the traveler also knows how to love. They are capable of loving with such intensity that they could stay forever wherever they go, and return to recreate a new reality. Such is the power of those who know how to feel.
However, none of this has anything to do with those tourist people who travel and move through the geographical space so quickly that they only have time to absorb and hinder. Yes, that’s precisely it: to absorb and hinder. Because when you move so, so fast, you end up always being in the same place.
Although, well… for me, what matters is our journey. My father insists that I shouldn’t worry about anything because the journey has already begun, even if I haven’t realized it. He tells me, «don’t be nervous, stop worrying; your most important journey is inward, towards your feelings, your essence, and your soul.» And he continues saying, «actually, you are very fortunate; I don’t know anyone who has embarked on a journey in search of their own Light and knows that there is a star waiting for them at the end of the journey.»
I’ll tell you a little about how it all began…
We traveled to meet someone. Her name is Isabella. My father says she is a star. A star of Light. That’s why I know we cannot get lost. It’s true that I don’t know many things, but I know that if a star lights your way, you can never lose your way. Besides, in my family, we all believe in magic, and that is the reason why we can and know how to truly feel it.
This journey was born because one day my father told Isabella that a ‘sentiscientive creation’ implies something proximate in time, close in distance, simple in complexity, and small in size. And it always moves very slowly in the course of its slowness. Thus, it never proliferates and cannot collapse. Therefore, it never extinguishes. A ‘sentiscientive creation’ not only remains but transcends. And when things are like this, they serve to spread love and awareness, revealing their frequency to all those souls who are waiting for it. A ‘sentiscientive creation’ is also a way of living.
And so, the next day Isabella proposed to my father this beautiful journey, based on the kindness and trust in the altruism of all people. Because Kindness, like Beauty, is inherent to the soul that possesses them. And all the souls of this world, by themselves, are utterly beautiful.
So, here we are. In a beautiful journey where we will be able to perceive ‘the sentiscientive’ through your altruistic acts, dear Carrier Person. Because every altruistic act is an investment of the soul. And that is the best investment we will ever make.
But first… our father wrote some brief instructions for the trip.

To all the persons carrying this suitcase.
This is the Tale of Two Books. Yes, it sounds a bit strange, but it makes sense. However, we still can’t tell it. You will see…
It is a story that will narrate a journey, a true adventure. But we cannot do it without your help. Because you are the Bearer of this suitcase, and you are already part of this journey. My name is Roberto, although the spotlight of this journey belongs to my little Love of Sentiscientive Tale and her little sister Soul, along with her beautiful collection of aphorisms.
The journey will lead my little Love and my little Soul from somewhere in the center of the La Mancha, whose name I cannot remember right now, to a beautiful and bright spot in that lovely country which is Italy.
But they do not travel in a straight line. No, no. Instead, they will zigzag as much as necessary. And they will travel with you, going wherever you go and doing whatever you do. Because you are the indispensable character of this Tale.
And that’s why we need your help.
Help us continue our beautiful journey. Carry this suitcase until you find another Carrier Person filled with Beauty and Kindness, who selflessly brings little Love and the little Soul to its final destination: the hands of Isabella.
[EXPERIMENT NOTES]
This journey/experiment involves the suitcase and its contents being passed from hand to hand for as long as necessary, from the origin until they reach their final destination in Italy. And that journey, with its corresponding stops and diversions, ups and downs, comings and goings, and other predictable or unpredictable events, will complete the Story with your participation.
The experiment originated from Isabella as a way to acquire, outside of conventional channels, copies of the works «Cuento Sentisciente» and «203 Anotaciones (caóticas) de un soñador entrenado». However, the proposal seemed so brilliant to me that from the beginning we transformed it into a selfless exchange between both of us, with the firm intention of inspiring the altruistic spirit of all those who wish to participate in this strange yet beautiful story.
If you would like to be part of this Story, whether or not you are a Person Carrying the suitcase, please leave a comment on this post, or contact us through this website.
