What do you think you're supposed to learn in this lifetime?

I think - nothing.
Perhaps we aren't supposed to do anything.
And perhaps that is the basic freedom we are born with.

Maybe it's like a park here, and you could do anything you want or even nothing at all.

But what we could learn? The possibilities are probably infinite, or atleast of a very large number.

And we keep learning.. ;)

I don't know

Lisa Hannigan - Splishy Splashy


LYRICS:
Surface slowly at your own speed
Waiting for some sky.
We're all laughing, we're all faking
Just to see you smile.

She waits her turn
she waits her time,
And all her love
it sings it shines

Have your coffee, splishy splashy
Frozen up the stairs.
Hollow but so normal
When she needs a piece of care.

She waits her turn
she waits her time,
And all her love
It sings it shines.


I didn't want to start again on writing sad things.I'm sort of moving in and out of it. But I don't really know what to say today. It's like nothing mattered for a while. Maybe somethings never change and after a while, you begin to live with it, even though you may not be able to take it. Everything can't be picked, and somethings are thrown at you, and you just have to take care of that. However tired you are, or how much you can't take it any longer. It's harder to be lonely in crowds, than be all by yourself.

Now, all I can do is smile. Not because I'm happy, or I'm sad. I really don't know why. Everybody has their own problems and big or small is just relative.

It's like looking at everything and asking ....."Is that all you've got?"

And suddenly I feel me again.

What have you learned about love?

All I know is love is one of the two most wonderful places to be in. Maybe I'm just an extremely slow learner, and love seems like a beautiful mystery.
I don't know if everything or a lot can be loved. Maybe be fond of or like or adore. I think I'm lazy when it comes to love. I probably don't take efforts to love something. But love finds it's way perhaps. And one lovely day, you see someone so beautiful, that loving them feels the easiest way. And not being in love seems impossible, or atleast extremely hard. :)

I could say loving is like breathing, but I can hold my breath.;)

Lisa Hannigan-Ocean And A Rock





Ocean And A Rock
- Lisa Hannigan

What you at my gentle spoken friend
I lack a frame to put you in
When you're an ocean and a rock away

I feel you in the pocket of my overcoat
My fingers wrap around your words
And take the shape of games we play

I feed your words through my buttonholes
I bring them to my fingerless gloves
They're green and prone to fraying

Thoughts of you warm my bones
I'm on the way, I'm on the phone
Let's get lost, me and you
An ocean and a rock is nothing to me

I am far away from where you lay
Awake the day while you fall to sleep
An ocean and a rock away

I keep you in the pockets of my dresses
And the bristles of my brushes
Spin you into my curls today

I spoon you into my coffee cup
Spin you through a delicate wash
I wear you all day
I wear you all day

Thoughts of you warm my bones
I'm on the way, I'm on the phone
Let's get lost, me and you
And ocean and rock is nothing to me

Thoughts of you, you warm my bones
I'm on the way, I'm nearly home
Let's get lost, me and you
An ocean and a rock is nothing to me

Being.

Something I haven't been doing lately.

What is one thing that there are no words for?

Posted on Feb 20th, 2009 by Desafinada : Insanity in a nutshell Desafinada
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 20, 2009:

And that is the problem with me......
I can't find words for more than half the things I feel.

I could tell you what they are if I had a word or more.

Where is your favorite place to hide?

Posted on Feb 22nd, 2009 by Desafinada : Insanity in a nutshell Desafinada
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 22, 2009:

It's actually strange and I don't know if it even qualifies.

But whatever I might feel....
My ideal 'place' for hiding is running a long distance in the rain.

Too bad it isn't always available.
