when i was growing up in romania and my dad was gone on month long or so business trips, my mom and i would start counting down a couple of weeks before he came back. she would put 14 matches in a match box and each day we would burn one. waiting for him. waiting...

i have been listening to Beethoven's 9th symphony. it is the most incredible piece of classical music ever written. i have had the CD for half of my life and never truly LISTENED. it is helping a great deal during this week.

Air - You Make It Easy

"Never been here - How about you?"
You smile at my answer
You've given me the chance
To be held and understood

You leave me laughing without crying
There's no use denying
For many times I've tried
Love has never felt as good

Be it downtown or way up in the air
When your heart's pounding
You know that I'm aware

You make it easy to watch the world with love
You make it easy to let the past be done
You make it easy

How'd you do it? How'd you find me?
How did I find you?
How can this be true?
To be held and understood

Keep it coming - no one's running
The lesson I'm learning
Cause blessings are deserved
By the trust that always could

Be it downtown or way up in the air
When your heart's pounding
You know that I'm aware

You make it easy to watch the world with love
You make it easy to let the past be done
You make it easy

You make it easy to watch the world with love
You make it easy to let the past be done
You make it easy

3 days and a few hours. Bestimmt, eine ganz grosse Überraschung. Ich glaube wir beide sind entspannt, nicht nur ich. Es ist einzigartig, jemandem zu treffen mit dem du ein Echo hast. Und obwohl ich shade bin das er weg geht, ich fühle mich auch froh das ich ihm getroffen habe. Ich fühle mich ganz calm and habe kein Angst, oder vielleicht nur ein kleines kleines bißchen, und das hat mehr zu tun mit ein Meteor auf die Erde fallen. Alles ist anders für mich gewesen, ich hab kein Mappe zu folgen. Und das ist prima, den ich bin nicht so gut mit Mappen.

from one of my best girlfriends: "about relationships and how we meet, and timing... its a sort of buddhist approach: You have no control whether he is supposed to be in your life. If he is, then he will be. You have no control if he is not supposed to be in your life. If he is not, then he won't be. hope, liberation, accepting things just as they are and appreciating the moment."

Life changes fast.

Life changes in the instant.

You sit down to dinner and life as you know it ends.

The question of self-pity.
