It's good to know...

that what I have felt has been captured in words. Someone else has felt this too.

Adele- Somone Like You 

 I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and your married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things, I didn't give to you

Old friend
Why are you so shy
It ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the lie

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah

You'd know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summery haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over yet

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah

Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regret's and mistakes they're memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg, I remembered you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg, I remembered you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah, yeah

Is it the full moon yet?

After a long while, I got some time last night when I did not have much work from office. So I looked at the moon; it was beautiful. There are things that come to your mind when you see something beautiful like that. New ideas germinate. Beauty is indeed a gift from the gods.

It also reminded me of those words - "When you remember me, look at the moon - and I will look at it too, and we will know we are both close to each other". And in the blink of an eye we were 4000 miles apart...

I had not looked at the moon in a while. It's beautiful.

I don't have a writers' block

What I have are timing issues. While doing the most mundane things, my mind keeps going back to the the events of my life. All the moments when I have been happy. And all the (many more) moments when I have been sad. And I think of all the things that I would write, if I had a pen paper at that moment.


But then life catches up and I focus back to the job at hand. And all those beautiful things vanish from the mind. So I don't have a writer's block. I have timing issues.


Take for instance, the events in Norway from a month or two ago. I wonder what Anders is thinking about right now. I have had time to analyse it and there are so many (questions and answers) that came to mind. Perhaps I should write about it someday. But the sea of political correctness and liberalism is nauseating. Being an immigrant, it might even be detrimental.


Do you think Anders knows that there are people out there who understand his point of view? Even if they may not agree with the actions he took. His must be a loneliness. I can connect with that...
