Is this the way Life's meant to be?

Although it's only a day since I was taken away

And left standing here looking in wonder

The ground at my feet, maybe it's just the old street

But everything that I know lies under [...]

And I wonder, yes, I wonder, is this

The way life's meant to be.

“In the existence of our lives,

there is a single coincidence that brings us together

and for a moment, our hearts beat as one.”

Compilation of the Heart - Giornata di mille Cuori

"Oh look, a heart."

"It's a yarrow."

"Yeah, I know, but see... it's a heart."

"It's a yarrow!"

"Yes, but look the shape... it's a heart!"

"It's a yarrow." ...
Some people just don't see them...

~

The other hearts I found today I'll keep for later.
...never know when bad times hit. 

But for these other kind of days: things fall right into place by themselves... And as in science you don't shout "Eureka!" rather than "Oh, that's funny.", and you have actually advanced a step.

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairy tales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly, my friends
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on) yeah yeah
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on)
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On, with the show
Queen - The show must go on

Love is so short, forgetting is so long. (Pablo Neruda)

It ain't easy giving up your Heart... No, it's really f*cking hard.

I just can't help it, the song is perfect:

If life didn't make me laugh every once in a while, it just wouldn't be funny anymore.

"Won't take nothing for my journey now, keep your eyes on the prize, hold on" - to love.

Compilation of the Heart - “I am here. I am not going anywhere.” said the River in April.

but then, I didn't know where 'here' was

I close my eyes and imagine:

"I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long

I could teach my feet to fly”

Joni Mitchell

Stufen

Stufen

Wie jede Blüte welkt und jede Jugend

Dem Alter weicht, blüht jede Lebensstufe,

Blüht jede Weisheit auch und jede Tugend

Zu ihrer Zeit und darf nicht ewig dauern.

Es muß das Herz bei jedem Lebensrufe

Bereit zum Abschied sein und Neubeginne,

Um sich in Tapferkeit und ohne Trauern

In andre, neue Bindungen zu geben.

Und jedem Anfang wohnt ein Zauber inne,

Der uns beschützt und der uns hilft, zu leben.

Wir sollen heiter Raum um Raum durchschreiten,

An keinem wie an einer Heimat hängen,

Der Weltgeist will nicht fesseln uns und engen,

Er will uns Stuf' um Stufe heben, weiten.

Kaum sind wir heimisch einem Lebenskreise

Und traulich eingewohnt, so droht Erschlaffen,

Nur wer bereit zu Aufbruch ist und Reise,

Mag lähmender Gewöhnung sich entraffen.

Es wird vielleicht auch noch die Todesstunde


Uns neuen Räumen jung entgegen senden,

Des Lebens Ruf an uns wird niemals enden...

Wohlan denn, Herz, nimm Abschied und gesunde!

Hermann Hesse

There is Freedom of Speech, and there is the Right to remain Silent.

Some things don’t have a natural opposite, there can only be a lack of it, which is a relation, gaining meaning only by somebody actually noticing it.
