by Derek Walcott
"The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life."
I found this beautiful poem on the foreword of the novel "The Time Traveller's Wife", written by Audrey Niffenegger. I can't wait to read the book!

Who will you be when the end comes?
The end of the world will come, sooner or later. It's just a matter of time.
If this will occur during your lifetime, you'll have to decide quickly and take a stand. So, who will you be: one of the billions of people fighting for their own survival or one of the few who will sacrifice themselves for a greater good - the survival of mankind?
I am totally certain of whom I'm going to be. For me there is just one possible path. I don't love myself as much as I love all the others. And I'm happy to feel this way. Incredibly happy.
If you settled this issue, there is only one more decision to make: what is the image that you'll have in mind right before the whole world falls apart? I don't know about you guys, but I want to be sure that in front of my eyes will flash only moments of love. There is one picture that I like in particular. It always reminds me of the simple beauty of pure love. I think this is what I choose to have in mind in the last instant of my life:

And he smiled shyly at her
And she smiled back with tears in her eyes
And she smiled back with tears in her eyes
And he held her hand as if he would never let go
And she let him hold her as if nothing will ever tear them apart
PS You should see "2012" on the largest screen that you can find in your town. It's really impressive!

O farama de tinerete
O zi insorita de noiembrie. O alee intr-un parc oarecare. Nu stii cum ai ajuns acolo. Picioarele tale nu mai asculta de mult de tine. Si-au luat lumea in cap. Nu-ti mai amintesti de cand s-a intamplat asta. Te miri cum de este atat de multa liniste cand atatia oameni misuna in jurul tau. Uite, baietelul acela cu par blond deschide larg gura, de parca isi striga sora aflata in leaganul alaturat, dar niciun sunet nu strabate aerul pana la tine. Si de ce se misca atat de incet totul ? Doi indragostiti se fugaresc cu zambetele pana la urechi si abia reusesc sa nu te imbranceasca dar tie ti se pare ca ai putea strabate tot parcul si i-ai gasi abia cu doi pasi mai departe de unde esti acum. « Ce Doamne-iarta-ma se intampla cu mine ? »
Te asezi pe o banca pe care ai mai stat candva cand erai mai tanara si lumea se purta cu tine de parca mergeai in ritm cu ea, nu de una singura. Iti lasi capul pe spate asa cum iti placea mereu s-o faci si privesti crengile de platan de deasupra ta. E frumos, desi nu atat de frumos pe cat era odata. Stii ca ar trebui sa vezi mai multe culori si sa te incante mai mult franturile de cer senin care se intrezaresc printre frunze. Inchizi ochii si apoi ii redeschizi, in speranta ca la a doua tentativa vei vedea mai mult decat nuante de maro si petice de cer de un gri insipid. Dezamagire totala. Nicio schimbare. Iti place ceea ce vezi dar stii ca puteai distinge mult mai multe candva. De la globuletele care atarna de ramuri si nervurile frunzelor de un galben nespus de jucaus pana la nuantele de kaki ale scoartei. « Trebuie sa fie mai mult de atat. »
Indignata, opresti primul trecator care se iveste. E o femeie la vreo patruzeci de ani. «Fiti draguta, vreau sa va intreb ceva. Va rog sa va uitati putin la coroana acestui copac si sa-mi spuneti ce vedeti.» Femeia priveste nedumerita in sus si apoi spune cu un aer total descumpanit : « Niste crengi goale si triste, ce as putea sa vad altceva ? »
Iti dau lacrimile. Nu se poate sa fie doar atat. Tu vezi clar frunzele frumos dantelate si franturile de cer dintre ele, dar stii ca lipseste ceva. Ar trebui sa vezi mai mult, si nu stii cum sa faci sa reusesti asta.
Exact atunci trece pe langa tine un baiat cu par negru si obraji imbujorati. Te uiti in urma lui spunandu-ti ca daca mai erai tanara, ai fi alergat dupa el si l-ai fi sarutat pe acei obraji atat de frumosi. Poate te-ar fi placut si ati fi continuat sa va plimbati impreuna. Dar nu mai e cazul… Ai ajuns la varsta la care nu-ti mai este permisa o astfel de fericire simpla. Apleci trista capul si incepi sa plangi usor. Auzi pasi. Tanarul s-a intors din drum si vine catre tine. Este chiar mai frumos decat ti s-a parut la prima vedere. « Doamne, oare de ce se apropie ? » Tanarul ajunge in dreptul tau si cu cea mai candida voce te intreaba : « Buna, cred ca suntem colegi de liceu. Esti clasa a XII-a la liceul Tudor Vianu ? Ma bucur ca te regasesc aici. De mult am vrut sa-ti vorbesc. » Apoi zambeste timid si isi lasa privirea in pamant.
Nu mai ai cuvinte. Il iei de mana si ii faci semn sa se aseze langa tine pe banca. Va lasati amandoi capul pe spate si priviti spre cer, printre crengile de platan. O explozie de nuante se naste in fata ochilor tai inmarmuriti de uimire. Dintr-o data totul este cum era candva : colorat, zgomotos, parfumat. Iti auzi inima batand tot mai repede. Si de data asta, nu bate singura. Are ecou. Inima baiatului frumos de langa tine care iti strange mana de parca nu ar mai vrea sa ti-o lase niciodata.
~ O farama de tinerete, de atat avem nevoie. Cineva care sa creada in tineretea noastra. ~

The future is unfolding now
If you're out of ideas, check out this inspiring website: www.43things.com
First things that spring to my mind:
- bring a smile on other people's faces;
- find hapiness in being by myself;
- being more focused on my long-term goals;
- becoming more self-confident;
- reading and writing more;
- stop feeling sorry for myself;
- being accepted to a masters programme in the UK.
Well, yes, no love involved I suppose. Too much scars and open wounds for now.
It is said that the most beautiful things in life are free and... unexpected... so... I let my future suprise me. :-)

The piano keeps me alive
The past is dead...
I'm losing myself in memories of the future...
I'm a piano key waiting for the right fingers...

A great pianist
Today I had the rare chance of meeting a very special man. A very talented pianist.
He plays Yann Tiersen's song and he even composed an original song: The Rubicon Song. His interpretation is absolutely impressive and emotional. He really melts my heart.
Please meet a great pianist: Andrei!

The Rubicon Song (his own composition)
Comptine d'un autre été (Yann Tiersen)
Lux Aeterna (Requiem For a Dream movie)
No words could ever describe the beauty of a piano song... I'm speechless.

I can't ever lose control with you
I think it's my favourite love scene ever. There is so much chemical attraction between them and still, he finds the inner strength to control himself, in order not to hurt her.

It'a new dawn, It's a new day, It's a new life for me
Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
blossom in the trees you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you
know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel

Let the cut begin
I can see clearly now and I can wait for love.
Someone shared this song with me today. Thank you, my dear friend. It's very meaningful for me, at this moment of my life. It gives me hope. And hope is all I need right now. Thank you!
Sixpence None the Richer - Love
"You must be the seed. Descend into the earth.
Searching for the union of death, and then rebirth."
But I need love. It is patience, it is kindness.
I need love. It is rain after the dryness.
I need love. Sister Wisdom, help me see
It's the one thing that I need.
The only thing that I need.
"The Harvester is near. His blade is on your skin.
To plant a new beginning." Well then let the cut begin.
But I need love. It is patience, it is kindness.
I need love. It is rain after the dryness.
I need love. Sister Wisdom, help me see

The only thing that I need.

Not entirely hopeless
I think I know the answer to the question in my previous post:
when hope dies, another hope takes its place...
at least that's what I hope
and if I still hope that, it means that I'm not completely hopeless, right?
Someone will reach out for me and grab my hand
One
Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

Stuck in a Moment I Can't Get Out Of
I'm not afraid of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing in my own company
I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you
You gotta stand up straight
Carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere, baby
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along this stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard

Things to do when you're dead...
... and you struggle to be alive again:
- Breathe! (Just keep on breathing!)
- Cry! (It's ok to cry.)
- Allow yourself at least 2 months of grief.
- Don't pretend that you're ok. Be miserable! Be weak! Be annoying! You should be! It's your right! You earned it when you died!
- Breathe! (Just keep on breathing!)
- Breathe! (Just keep on breathing!)
- Cry! (It's ok to cry.)
- Allow yourself at least 2 months of grief.
- Don't pretend that you're ok. Be miserable! Be weak! Be annoying! You should be! It's your right! You earned it when you died!
- Breathe! (Just keep on breathing!)
Mason Jennings - Your New Man
For someone very special to me, who likes this song as much as I do.
My dear, I hope this will bring a smile on your face. :-)

Fara tine - Ana Blandiana
"Fără tine mi-e frig
N-am înţeles niciodată
Cum simte aerul
Că ai plecat.
Universul se strânge
Ca o minge plesnită
Şi-şi lasă pe mine zdrenţele reci.
Câinele negru
Cu burta întinsă duios pe zăpadă
Se scoală şi se îndepărtează
Privindu-mă în ochi,
Refuzând să-şi spună numele.
Începe să fulguie.
Mă ustură pielea
Pe locul de unde te-ai rupt.
Şi mi-e frig,
Când simt cum cade moale,
Odată cu zăpada,
Această rugăciune către nimeni."

There is no escape from here... There is nothing left to live... It's the end.
How long before you tell the truth?
Ooh, baby don't you know I suffer?
Oh, baby can you hear me moan?
You caught me under false pretenses
How long before you let me go?
Ooh, you set my soul alight
Ooh, you set my soul alight
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul alight)
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
(Ooh, you set my soul)
I thought I was a fool for no one
But ooh, baby I'm a fool for you
You're the queen of the superficial
And how long before you tell the truth?
Ooh, you set my soul alight
Ooh, you set my soul alight
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

I will be chasing the starlight
Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
Starlight
I will be chasing the starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive
But I'll never let you go
If you promised not to fade away
Never fade away
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
Starlight
I will be chasing the starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive
But I'll never let you go
If you promised not to fade away
Never fade away
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes and revelations
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold
You in my arms
It's been a long time now...
Well it's been a long time, long time now
Since I've seen you smile
And I'll gamble away my fright
And I'll gamble away my time
And in a year, a year or so
This will slip into the sea
Well it's been a long time, long time now
Since I've seen you smile
Since I've seen you smile
And I'll gamble away my fright
And I'll gamble away my time
And in a year, a year or so
This will slip into the sea
Well it's been a long time, long time now
Since I've seen you smile

Esti liber sa pleci
Nu
Nu am sa primesc acest inel
Intelege-ma: te iubesc prea mult ca sa te leg de mine
Te vreau fluture liber
Te vreau pasare in zbor
Te vreau zambet naiv de copil
Nu
Nu am sa primesc aceasta promisiune
Crede-ma: am sa te iubesc
Fara legaminte
Fara noduri
Fara corzi
Da
Am sa accept iubirea ta doar asa – in libertate:
Liber sa pleci (departe de mine)
Liber sa cauti (altceva)
Liber sa fugi (in alta inima)
Si totusi,
Alegand sa ramai
Pentru ca ochii tai sunt
orbi
fara mine
Pentru ca sangele tau
curge
prin venele mele
Pentru ca tu
nu stii
decat numele meu.

You're my high, baby

Sweet darling
There's nothing in this world
I wouldn't bear for you
For you're my high
Baby
You're my sky
Sweet angel
There's nothing in this world
I wouldn't dream for you
For you're my starry night
Love
You're my shining light
Kiss me, darling
Let the healing begin
Let the spinning never end
And never leave me

Hold me like you can't breathe without me
And never break me
Baby
Never break me

I'll hold your knees and your wrists
I'll hold your sky and your earth
I swear
I'll breathe your air
I'll eat your words
I'll drink your fears
I'll watch your smile rising in the morning
I'll carry your heart in mine
Just never doubt me
Love
Just never doubt me

Just keep on kissing me
Just keep on spinning me
For you're my high

Just keep on kissing me
Just keep on spinning me
For you're my high
Baby
You're my sky
Dying with the speed of light
I'm getting closer to that line
the bright line of the horizon
where all pain dissolves.
I'm the only traveller
flying in this dark cold night
where no hope is left.
I'm getting closer to that point
the vantage point of the galaxy
where all wars come to an end.
I'm heading for this fall alone
swimming through sunken suns
and aching planets.
As I plunge into the pitch-black abyss,
fiery comets start haunting me,
pushing me towards blazing supernovas
and super-massive black holes.
The universe erupts in glaring lights
dazzling my teary eyes.
Everything is illuminated and boiling
yet, blood is freezing in my veins
and my breath turns into icicles.
I'm falling faster and faster now.
Worlds are exploding all around me
as the smell of gunpowder and burnt stardust
fills my lungs with dying wishes.
I scream out my pain
but no one can hear me
and my scream breaks into sharp pieces
echoing back to me
piercing my untouched hips
my cold pale lips
my barren chest.
As I'm dying with the speed of light
I can almost hear the sound of stellar birth
getting louder
and louder.
Come, love, pull the black veil of death
over my fragile shoulders
and smash my bones to the ground.
Split me into millions of fragments
of cosmic dust
and scatter me into
infinity.
the bright line of the horizon
where all pain dissolves.
I'm the only traveller
flying in this dark cold night
where no hope is left.
I'm getting closer to that point
the vantage point of the galaxy
where all wars come to an end.
I'm heading for this fall alone
swimming through sunken suns
and aching planets.
As I plunge into the pitch-black abyss,
fiery comets start haunting me,
pushing me towards blazing supernovas
and super-massive black holes.
The universe erupts in glaring lights
dazzling my teary eyes.
Everything is illuminated and boiling
yet, blood is freezing in my veins
and my breath turns into icicles.
I'm falling faster and faster now.
Worlds are exploding all around me
as the smell of gunpowder and burnt stardust
fills my lungs with dying wishes.
I scream out my pain
but no one can hear me
and my scream breaks into sharp pieces
echoing back to me
piercing my untouched hips
my cold pale lips
my barren chest.
As I'm dying with the speed of light
I can almost hear the sound of stellar birth
getting louder
and louder.
Come, love, pull the black veil of death
over my fragile shoulders
and smash my bones to the ground.
Split me into millions of fragments
of cosmic dust
and scatter me into
infinity.
