Hope fills Israeli Skyes, again | Mesmerised @ Park Absor | Dariana Osnato
Location: Eshkol Regional Council, Israel
This weekend, hot air balloons filled the sky in Israel again.
First time in 3 years.
Balloons need calm. Clear air. No turbulence below.
For three years, none of that existed here.
Watching them rise felt like something bigger than a festival. It felt like proof that things can go up again — slowly, deliberately, when the ground finally holds.
I've spent 26+ years building things that work under pressure. But rebuilding — after real rupture — is different. It's not about pushing harder. It's about waiting for the right air, then rising anyway.
If you're still finding your footing after these years: you're not behind. You're just waiting for your air to clear.
