Stardust



Deze krachten gaan ons voorstellingsvermogen voorbij. Het maakt duidelijk wie wij zijn en dat wij sterrenstof zijn, gevangen in één van de sterrenstelsels van de kosmos. Vóór wij werden geboren waren wij sterrenstof en wanneer wij sterven keren wij weer terug als sterrenstof. Op die manier blijven wij altijd bestaan, waar en in welke vorm dat ook zal zijn.

These powers go beyond our imagination. It makes clear who we are and that we exist of stardust, caught in one of the many galaxies in the cosmos. Before our birth we were stardust and when we die our body becomes stardust again. In this way we will always exist, wherever and in what shape that will be.

Thank You Stars - Katie Melua





"Thank You, Stars (New Version)"


Some call it faith, some call it love.
Some call it guidance from above.
You are the reason we found ours,
So thank you stars.

Some people think it's far away,
Some know it's with them everyday.
You are the reason we found ours,
So thank you stars.

There are no winds that can blow it away on the air,
When they try to blow it away 's when you know it will always be there.

To some it's the strength to be apart,
To some it's a feeling in the heart.
And when you're out there on your own, it's the way back home.

There are no winds that can blow it away on the air,
When they try to blow it away 's when you know it will always be there.
Some call it faith, some call it love.
Some call it guidance from above.
You are the reason we found ours,
So thank you stars.
Thank you stars,
Thank you stars,
Thank you stars

First Signs.... ?



Voor de tweede dag op rij schijnt de zon en ik voelde deze mooie ochtend de zonnewarmte op mijn gezicht. Gisteren ontdekte ik voor het eerst de vroege tekenen van de Lente. Ik zag de eerste sneeuwklokjes, die opdiverse plaatsen uit de grond sproten, onder bomen en zelfs tussen de tegels van het voetpad. Vanochtend nam ik mijn camera mee om een foto voor mijn blog te maken. Ik hoop dat de Lente nu gauw komt, ik verlang naar de warmte van de Lente. Ik wil naar buiten gaan, me vrij voelen en leuke dingen doen. Nou Lente waar wacht je op?


It is the second day in a row that the sun is shining and I felt this morning the warmth on my face. Yesterday I discovered for the first time the early signs of Spring. I saw the first snow drops, growing in various places, under trees and even between tiles on hidden pedestrian paths. This morning took I my camera with me to shoot a photo for this blog. I hope that Spring arrives soon, I'm longing for the warmth of Spring. I want to go outside, to feel free and do pleasant things . So Spring what are you waiting for?

My Favorite Song


K.D. Lang sings Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah"


Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Baby I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light
In every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though
It all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah
