“And the only thing that is of value is something that you develop yourself through your life experiences, through maybe some hard times where you learn how to seduce.
You learn how to compromise.
You learn how to be in a relationship and how to love.
And then once you have that skill or whatever you want to call it, then nobody can take it away from you and you have power and you have freedom and a degree of happiness”

Es gibt Dinge, die man nicht versteht.
Momente, in denen einem alles egal ist.
Träume, die man vergisst.
Worte, die einen verletzen.
Lieder, die man nicht mehr hören will.
Orte, an die man zurückkehren möchte.
Menschen, die man sehr vermisst.
Erinnerungen, die einem das Herz brechen.
Gefühle, die man nicht steuern kann.
Tränen, die unweigerlich kommen.
Augenblicke, die einem nicht mehr aus dem Kopf gehen.
Einiges, dass man hätte besser machen können.
Tage, an denen man nicht mehr weiter weiß.
Stunden, in denen man sich allein gelassen fühlt.
Minuten, in denen man begreift, was einem wirklich fehlt.
Sekunden, in denen man verzweifelt ist…
Es gibt Momente im Leben eines jeden Menschen, da hört die Erde für einen Moment auf, sich zu drehen… und wenn sie sich dann wieder dreht, wird nichts mehr sein wie vorher.
Man sagt, die Zeit heilt alle Wunden, das ist falsch.
Man lernt nur damit zu leben.

“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… and they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.
It turns what we have into enough, and more.
It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity.
It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home. a stranger into a friend.

‎”Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one’s who don’t. Believe things happen for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.”

You will achieve grand dream, a day at a time, so set goals for each day / not long and difficult projects, but chores that will take you, step by step, toward your rainbow.

Write them down, if you must, but limit your list so that you won’t have to drag today’s undone matters into tomorrow. Remember that you cannot build your pyramid in twenty-four hours.

Be patient. Never allow your day to become so cluttered that you neglect your most important goal / to do the best you can, enjoy this day, and rest satisfied with what you have accomplished.

Everybody seeks for happiness, and there’s a safe way to find it. It consists on controlling our thoughts. Happiness doesn’t depend on external conditions, it depends on internal ones.

“La educación es la capacidad para afrontar la capacidad para afrontar las situaciones que plantea la vida”

“El gran objetivo de la educación no es el conocimiento, si no la acción”

“Es mucho más facil criticar y censurar que tratar de comprender el punto de vista del prójimo. Es más facil encontrar defectos que pronunciar elogios.”

“Es más natural hablar de lo que uno quiere, que de lo que quieren los demás”

“Piense antes de hacer lo costumbrado, lo humano, lo impulsivo (…). La crítica es inutil porque pone a la otra persona a la defensiva, y por lo común hace que trate de justificarse. La crítica es peligrosa porque lastima, hiere el precioso orgullo de la persona, daña su sentido de la importancia y despierta su resentimiento.”

“Por miedo de la crítica nunca provocamos cambios duraderos, y con frecuencia creamos resentimiento.”

“El malhechor culpa a todos menos a si mismo. La persona a quien queremos corregir y censurar probablemente tratará de justificarse y censurarnos a su vez”

The thing was that he wasn’t in love as I thought. What I try to tell you is that I understand what means feel as the smaller, most insignificant and pathetic of the human being, and what means feel pain in parts of your body that you didn’t know them exist either.

And doesn’t matter how many times you’ll go to the hairdresser, or to how many Gyms you’ll go, or how many Chardonay glasses you’ll take with your friends because always you’ll fall asleep asleep, every night, studying all the details or asking yourself what you did wrong or what thing you could misanderstood and how in that instant you could think that you were happy.

Sometimes you can convince yourself that he’ll see the light in your door… and after all, and even if the situation keeps going for long time, then you go to that new place and you meet new people that makes you retake the love for yourself and you start gathering together the pieces of your soul and all this years that you wasted, start to vanish.

Sun, 22 May 2011 18:04:57 -0400

E quella volta, una domenica di ottobre, già l’autunno ci moriva addosso e io fumavo sigarette amare, e tu come uno specchio rotto riflettevi quell’immagine sbiadita del ricordo del frammento del brandello del profumo di quell’angolo d’estate e mi dicesti: “Voglio vivere la vita come un alito di vento che, inseguito dall’aurora, già racchiude le speranze di un domani tutto mio che mi appartenga, e come donna accarezzare nuovi scampoli d’assenza”, io dicevo “Sì capisco, vuoi gli scampoli d’assenza” ma pensavo: “Puttana”.

Così pensasti, decidesti e mi annunciasti: “Quest’estate vado in Grecia con Giovanna, mi preparo a accarezzare nuovi scampoli d’assenza”, io ti dissi: “Scusa cara, cosa cazzo ti prepari per l’estate, siamo a ottobre, è quanto meno prematuro”; tu piangesti tutta notte e al mattino ti svegliasti, gli occhi pesti, ripiangesti e mi dicesti: “Siamo onesti, vuoi che resti per tarpare le mie ali ed impedirmi di volare, e come donna accarezzare nuovi scampoli di assenza”, io ti dissi: “No, prudenza, non potrei vederti senza quei tuoi scampoli di assenza”, questo dissi ma pensavo dentro me che tu e Giovanna in Grecia ci andavate solo per sentirvi… puttana.

Poi sei tornata dalla Grecia io fingevo che non mi importava niente, ti chiedevo le notizie più banali, tipo: “Chissà quanta gente avrai incontrato, che bordello di turisti”, tu negavi ed affermavi: “No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no, eravamo solamente io e Giovanna sopra un’isola deserta tipo c’hai presente due chilometri di spiaggia vuota, dormivamo in un capanno in riva al mare e alla sera i pescatori ci portavano del pesce, facevamo le grigliate sulla spiaggia e cantavamo a squarciagola le canzoni di Battisti fino all’alba, tanto l’isola è deserta”, tu dicevi e io pensavo: “Ma che cazzo, tutti quelli che ritornan dalla Grecia sono stati sopra un’isola deserta tipo c’hai presente due chilometri di spiaggia vuota, ma contando tutti quelli che mi dicono ‘sta cosa io mi chiedo quante cazzo di isolacce deve averci questa merda di una Grecia, poi ‘sti pescatori greci non potrebbero pescare in altomare e impiccarsi con le reti senza andare a importunare le ragazze come te che normalmente sono brave ma travolte dagli eventi non disdegnano di fare la puttana?”.

E adesso tu mi chiedi come mai son così pallido e patito mentre tu sei tanto sana. La risposta è tra le righe di quest’aria che ti canto, che nel mentre che tu stavi sopra l’isola deserta strafogandoti di cozze con Giovanna e i pescatori, io da solo chiuso in casa non potevo fare a meno di pensare a te lontana già da qualche settimana e comporti una canzana praticando una gimkana che mi ha fatto alfin capire che tu sei, saresti stata, eri, fosti, sarai sempre e dillo pure anche a Giovanna… il mio amore, sì il mio amore, nonostante qualche dissapore. Come una libellula selvaggia io sorvolerei, però dimmi cosa hai fatto con il greco sulla spiaggia. Senza fiato, senza bronco, tu sei ritornata ma ti stronco; se ti lascio in faccia i segni del saldatore so che capirai: io non ti porterò rancore.
