Multiple Reasons to Live

Going to work today's morning, watching people all around, suddenly I got struck by

the Multiplicity.

The multiplicity of human beings, of their looks, their characters, the ways they walk and talk, the things they have in mind, their dreams, their goals, fears, joy, loves, their life philosophy....

And the only common thing they will always share is their final goal- the Death.

And there are only two ways to live Your life-

to pack it with utter triviality or make it full of sense!

You choose!

No words ...

There's something quieter than sleep

Within this inner room!

It wears a sprig upon its breast --

And will not tell its name.

.

Some touch it, and some kiss it --

Some chafe its idle hand --

It has a simple gravity

I do not understand!

.

I would not weep if I were they --

How rude in one to sob!

Might scare the quiet fairy

Back to her native wood!

.

While simple-hearted neighbors

Chat of the "Early dead" --

We -- prone to periphrasis

Remark that Birds have fled!

.

(Emily Dickinson)

.

.
Jest coś cichszego niźli sen
W tym środkowym pokoju.
Na piersi ma gałązkę -
Przemilcza imię swoje.
.
Niektórzy dotkną, ucałują,
Rozetrą bezwładne dłonie
Tej siły przyciągania
Nie rozumiem, nie pojmę!
.
Nie mogłabym płakać jak oni -
Szloch może być obrazą!
Spłoszą cichą wróżkę i umknie
Do swych rodzinnych lasów.
.
Gdy prostoduszni sąsiedzi
Gawędzą o "zmarłej przedwcześnie",
My - skorzy do peryfrazy -
Mówimy, że ptaki pierzchły.
.

'Tis not that Dying hurts us so --

'Tis Living -- hurts us more --

But Dying -- is a different way --

A Kind behind the Door --

.

The Southern Custom -- of the Bird --

That ere the Frosts are due--

Accepts a better Latitude --

We -- are the Birds -- that stay.

.

The Shrivers round Farmers' doors --

For whose reluctant Crumb --

We stipulate -- till pitying Snows

Persuade our Feathers Home.

.

(Emily Dickinson)

Nie to, że Umieranie boli
Bardziej niż Życie - na pewno
Boli jednak inaczej- to Ból,
Który dzieje się za Drzwiami - na Zewnątrz
.
- To - Obyczaj Popołudniowy - Ptaka,
Który leci ku cieplejszym Rajom
Jeszcze zanim Mróz ściśnie
- gdy my - To te Ptaki, które - zostają
.
-Które drżą pod wrotami Zagrody
I czekają na niechętny Okruch
-Póki Śniegi litościwe - Upierzeniu
-Nie przemówią wreszcie do rozsądku
.

My friend's mum died last night.

No words to convey...

February Indeed

There's an old polish saying "Idzie luty podkuj buty", which in a free translation means that in February you MUST get yourself warm shoes. I thought that in today global-warming-effect- world that folk proverb is simply out of date. I was wrong- it's minus 20 degrees. But on the other hand, there is a beautiful sun on the cloudless sky. Well, You can't have everything.

India Arie

When You're walking to work on such gloomy Tuesday morning, people in their cars rushing without reason, and there's India Arie in Your ears, loud enough to cut You off from the all- around- noise, then there's nothing else You can do.

You simply have to let the music flow and take you to those magical places.

The lyrics give you power for the whole day. "Private party", "There's hope" (from the album Testimony: Vol. 1, Life & Relationship) - notes and tunes of positivity to celebrate Yourself and cherish all You have.

And You know, it's a great and important thing to know how to live the life You have.

I bet india knows it better than many of us.

Go ahead and Enjoy! It's really worth it!

(few quotes from India Arie amazing album)

.

All my life

I've been looking for

Somebody else

To make me whole

But I had to learn the hard way

True love began with me

This is not ego or vanity

I'm just celebrating me

.

Back when I had a little

I thought that I needed a lot

A little was over rated,

but a lot was a little too complicated

You see-Zero didn't satisfy me

A million didn't make me happy

That's when I learned a lesson

That it's all about your perception

Provoking Myself

I dreamt of hugging that made me shiver

I dreamt of sucking that made me blush

I dreamt of licking that made me give her

the whole small prudish world of mine

.

And then I woke up and right beside me

There was she lying stark naked, so pleased

And realised it wasn't just dreaming

And here I go- a totally new Me.

Beat it!

It' foggy, it's gloomy, the snow looks like shit. Feels like London (no offence). The time ticks slowly: two seconds forward, one second back. In such moments I'd love to be overworked!

A Valentine Song

Oh, I wished that Chris Botti played me that song on the Valentine's Day.

Delight.

"In a one horse sleigh..."

A beautiful day today- the sunny weather and simply having fun with friends, riding in a one horse sleigh for the first time, drinking Krupnik (a vodka with honey and spices- sweet), sausages done over the warm fire, beautiful landscapes!

Bathroom Habits

Now, this is something ...... totally ridiculous!

What Your Bathroom Habits Say About You

You are very independent and self-centered. You don't solve other people's problems - and you don't expect them to solve yours. You spend a lot on clothes, and you tend to be a very dresser. However, it's hard for you to throw away trendy clothes when they go out of style. You have the perfect blend of confidence and class. You're proud of who you are - but you don't broadcast it. In relationships, you are practical and realistic. You have a romantic side, but you only let it out when it's appropriate.

Overemotional Me

Sometimes I wake up in the morning with an overemotional attitude towards the life.

It's either bad or good. Of course I like better the last one.

The life seems to be pure satisfaction then.

Subconcious connection with the world.

Good music in my ears

peace in my inner self

balance in my steps

my space!

.

Today I feel great!

Omen

Dr Drink

heals the moment

And as far as I'm concerned

That's not at all good omen
