The Miracle of Love

Know how you can listen to a song everyday and then one day, for reasons unknown, the melody just echoes in your soul..and it turns your insides upside down!
My soul found this song today..

The Miracle of Love – Eurythmics



How many sorrows
Do you try to hide
In a world of illusions
That's covering your mind?
I'll show you something good
Oh I'll show you something good.
When you open your mind
You'll discover the sign
That there's something
You're longing to find...

The miracle of love
Will take away your pain
When the miracle of love
Comes your way again.

Cruel is the night
That covers up your fears.
Tender is the one
Who wipes away your tears.
There must be a bitter breeze
To make you sting so viciously-
They say the greatest cowards
Can hurt the most ferociously.
But I'll show you something good
Oh I'll show you something good.
If you open your heart
You can make a new start
When your crumbling world falls apart.

Life is too short.

Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets.
So, love the people who treat you right,
forget about the ones who don't,
and believe that everything happens for a reason.
Know a good thing when you see it,
and don't let it slip away.
If you get a chance, take it.
If it changes your life, let it.
Nobody said it would be easy,
they just said it would be worth it!
Thank you Liezel for that one..

FEAR...

This logo I saw on the clothes that are sold at the place where we went to Bungy. Isn't it just so true..I would rather live with fear than regret, because fear usually is just temporary...well fear associated with adrenaline sports is.
Now that I have made the mental shift of fear being temporary, I face the
possibility of making a career change, moving to another town and uprooting out of my comfort zone with anticipation.. We'll see what the future holds in store.

WuZZuP

My brother moved into a new place the weekend, and while they were unpacking, his girlfriend produced a photo of a cat that made me think of this picture:

Thanks bro for the music and hope you enjoy your new place.

To all you other people..

Hope you had a great weekend..

Happy Valentine's Day!!

I hope that in the near future I get the opportunity to change my opinion, that..

Love is just different degrees of mutual dependence...
(that's dark hey!)
It is fun however to get sucked up in the hype of the day...

BUT I still wear black just to clearly state my opinion..

Hope you have a good one!

Jeff Dunham's Peanut and José

This is BRILLIANT!



You have seen Achmed the Dead Terrorist also done by Jeff? I have referred to Achmed, but you really should look for yourself.

Crazy

This song strikes a chord! :-)

Gnarls Barkley – Crazy



I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions have an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Probably [Possibly (radio version)]

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice

Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,

Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I wanna be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

But Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

Uh, uh

High's and Low's


What an adventure! 216 meters..the highest in the world.. Every moment was fun..

And then the next morning I woke up with a song in my head...a song that's been in my life for some time, but I never REALLY listened...and then, it's like a puzzle clicking into place..clarity regarding the relationship with my "partner in adventure"

So the low settles in and has been overwhelming my emotions for the past three days. .flashing memories only emphasizing the hurt.

But first listen to the song in my head:



Delerium - After All Lyrics

She knows the voices in her mind
They tell her
To leave

She's tired of smiling madly
Until silence becomes very silently
A noise in her mind

After all she has nothing inside
No good to give
No meaning to live
The mist engulfed tonight
Every single star

After all they shared
How could he simply say no
After all they shared
He turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry
That was really just a lie

She knows the noises in her mind
Nothing's left but
Screaming silence

After all she feels numbness inside
The feeling's gone
She's upside down
The pictures behind her closed eyes
This time you went too far

After all they shared
How could he simply say no
After all they shared
He turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry
That was really just a lie

After all they shared
How could he simply say no
After all they shared
He turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry
That was really just a lie

After all she has nothing inside
No good to give
No meaning to live
The mist engulfed tonight
Every single star

After all they shared
How could he simply say no
After all they shared
He turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry
That was really just a lie

After all they shared
How could he simply say no (simply say no)
After all they shared
He turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry
That was really just a lie

After all they shared
How could he simply say no (simply say no)
After all they shared
He turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry
That was really just a lie

After all they shared
How could he simply say no (how could he simply say no)
After all they shared (after all)
He turned away from her to go (he just turned away)
She said she wouldn't cry
That was really just a lie

Realising that I have been in this position before, I paged through my journal and came across the following..Ironic that 3 years later I have not learnt my lesson.

A moment of clarity.

'n Oomblik van helderheid..

Jy was 'n tydsverdryf, 'n
verbeeldingsvlug, 'n fantasie op voete.
Om energie aan jou te spandeer sal wees soos
om 'n droe put met 'n drupper te probeer opvul.


Maybe the biggest part of the hurt is the dissappointment with myself that I keep on making the same mistakes..what will it take to finally let the lesson sink in??

Ever slip reality for a while to go on an awesome adventure??
The Universe was right..every thought can become reality.

Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love

First heard this song as part of a mix made by my friend DJ Cake. Only later heard the full song and then this morning I read the lyrics. That first paragraph...mmm..
But back to DJ Cake. He makes these mixes himself as a hobby. They are available for free at this stage on his site and you only need to register with the site to be able to download them. Read his profile too, he loves his music and has been doing the DJ thing from the age of 14..
Raccoon...this one is for you, always think of you when I hear this song!

Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love Lyrics

Closed off from love
I didn’t need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you’re frozen

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone’s looking round
Thinking I’m going crazy

But I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothing’s greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I’m going crazy, maybe, maybe

But I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I....

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

And it’s draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I’ll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

I don’t care what they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I....

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I....

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
