The very same moon

Night after night, I look to the stars

Wondering where you might be

And I've thought to myself, is that very same moon

Shining on you, like it's shining on me

Keep on walking

I have a long road ahead of me

It's cloudy and dark it's hard to see

Will I ever get through to the end?

Been down this sling so many times before

And I told myself I would do it no more

Now I'm back on the same road again

I was aiming for the sky,

ended up flat on the ground

But once again the sun is rising,

I better keep on walking

-Salem Al Fakir-

Do you know?

Another autumn day

has come and gone

I walk alone through the park

I walk along so I can feel my breath

Without distraction, without no relief

You are always om my mind

and I miss you so much...

Do you know?

Sinnsro

-Gi meg styrke til å forandre det jeg kan,

 sinnsro til å akseptere det jeg ikke kan forandre,

 og visdom til å se forskjellen-

 

Skywatch

Mot ukjente landskap

Denne uro e ein vind

som rive i seilet,

- et sting i søvnig sinn,

Denne uro e ein sti

Mot ukjente landskap,

mot alt som kan gå meg forbi.

Så min uro må bli.

Denne uro e ein gnist

som tenne opp bålet

og blir ein brann te sist.

Denne uro e ein del

av liv eg har levd i.

For den som sette alt på spel,

har ein uro i sjel.

Må min uro holda stand

som vind, som bål og brann.

I alt eg har av tilmålt tid:

La min uro forbli.

-Vamp-

Sacrifice

A wise man once said you can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it.
 What he meant is nothing comes without a price.
 So before you go into battle, you better decide how much you're willing to lose.
 Too often, going after what feels good means letting go of what you know is right,
 and letting someone in means abandoning the walls you've spent a lifetime building.

 Of course, the toughest sacrifices are the ones we don't see coming,
 when we don't have time to come up with a strategy to pick a side or to measure the potential loss.

 When that happens, when the battle chooses us and not the other way around,
 that's when the sacrifice can turn out to be more than we can bear.



You can bet your life

      Yes, all that you’ve give me, I know

      But all you’ve cost me, you know

      Sums up to nothing much you know,

      nothing much at all

      

Sorry for not being what you needed

For not possessing what you

Think you want

Don’t know about anyone who does

By the way, is that why

you’re still you?

Still within yourself

Tell me which part I loved

And which one I hate the most?

Did it get you ready for later

Did the others fade out, like me?

well...

I won’t come near you again

You can bet your life

I don’t think I

Even want to see you

Ever again

-Unni Wilhelmsen-



Freedom

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera.

-Lewis Hine-

 



Hope

No one can take away

my hopes and dreams

of a

new start

and a

new beginning



Autumn

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.

-Albert Camus-



Elsewhere



I love the time and in between

the calm inside me

in the space where I can breathe

I believe there is a

distance I have wandered

to touch upon the years of

reaching out and reaching in

holding out holding in

I believe

this is heaven to no one else but me

and I'll defend it as long as I can be

left here to linger in silence

Have patience

Please don't push me,

I need to walk these stairs on my own

If you want to go faster, that`s alright.

I can`t go faster than I am able to.

Please don't push me!

I need to stay here for a while

Rest a little, reflect a little, weep a little...

go back one step, feel if I`m ready to move on

Please don't push me!

It hurts to trip over...

Maybe I`ll trip over anyway,

but at least I`ll do it my way

It`s safer that way.

Don`t try to convince me

the next step is easier

just because you`ve walked these roads before

I feel safe when you`re waiting here with me.

It is safe with you around,

I need someone to hold on to,

someone who knows the next step.

It's hard to take all these steps alone...

I'm heading on...have patience

Please don`t push me!

 

 

Autumn leaves

The falling leaves drift by my window

The falling leaves of red and gold

I see your lips, the summer kisses

The sunburned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long

And soon I'll hear old winter's song

But I miss you most of all, my darling

When autumn leaves start to fall



Courage

-Courage doesn't always roar.

Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow"-

Dagene som kom og gikk



Det kan være man oppsøker "gamle stier"
 når man føler seg ensom og alene

Man gjør det fordi det er godt å være der
la tankene vandre der...

 la tårene komme

slippe ut vonde følelser..

Sette seg ned...

 la minnene strømme på

de gode minnene

de gode minnene man ikke trodde fantes

minnene om en tid som er forbi

Det var en av de dagen som kom og gikk...

Humiliation

The last humiliation

The future

 We spend our whole lives worrying about the future,

 planning for the future,

 trying to predict the future,

 as if figuring it out will cushion the blow.

 But the future is always changing.

 The future is the home of our deepest fears and wildest hopes.

 But one thing is certain when it finally reveals itself.

 The future is never the way we imagined it.

People come into your life for a reason

People come into your life for a reason. The negative people usually are there to teach you what you don’t want to become, treat you how you don’t want to be treated, and to show you what you don’t deserve. Learn from it, let them teach you, and then let them go...





Sometimes the scars won't seem to heal, cause it`s too much to erase.

But eventually the memories will fade...

Moving on

Life is about making the right decisions

and moving on.

 

The road

Det finnes veier som er så smale at man må gå dem alene...
