Response/Ability

the game we play
is let's pretend
and pretend
we're not
pretending

we choose to
forget
who we are
and then forget
that we’ve
forgotten

who are we really?

the center
that watches
and runs the show
that can choose
which way
it will go

the I AM
consciousness
that powerful
loving perfect
reflection
of the cosmos

but in our attempt
to cope with
early situations
we chose or were
hypnotized into
a passive position

to avoid
punishment
or the loss of love
we chose to deny
our
response/ability
pretending that

things just
happened
or that we were
being controlled
taken over

we put ourselves
down
and have become
used to this
masochistic
posture
this weakness
this indecisiveness

but we are
in reality
free
a center
of cosmic energy

your will
is your power

don’t pretend
you don’t have it

or you won’t

Bernard Gunther

BIRIBI WO SORO

"Say"

Take all of your wasted honor

Every little past frustration
Take all of your so-called problems,
Better put 'em in quotations

Say what you need to say

Walking like a one man army
Fighting with the shadows in your head
Living out the same old moment
Knowing you'd be better off instead,
If you could only . . .

Say what you need to say

Have no fear for giving in
Have no fear for giving over
You'd better know that in the end
Its better to say too much
Then never say what you need to say again

Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open

Say what you need to say

John Mayer - Say

Time is fleeting ... Seize every opportunity ...
Fight for what you want!

How?

ring/my dice?

while we were hanging out with some polish friends, they asked us to show them some typical slovene music ... after all the folk music and similar (well, that is typically slovene, right? :D), we moved on to some of the more favourite slovene bands, and one of them was siddharta ... i used to listen to it a lot, but they just sort of fell off my radar in the recent years ... well anyway, one of the friends really liked them and just told me today, that he listens to siddharta almost every day now, which made me think about the good old days when i was quite a fan, so i just had to listen to them today ... and here's one of my all time favourites ...



Če bi imel ves denar,
in doma zlato,
se bojim da bi naenkrat vse izginilo,
še nedolžen smeh,
spremenim v jok,
in na Zemlji priredim velik vihar tegob.

Če bi bil vladar,
in imel to moč,
nenamerno bi ugasnil dan naredu noč,
se le meni zdi,
da mi te stvari,
sledijo kot vohun ki me ne izpusti.

A ne vidiš da samo,
a ne vidiš da samo.

Dajem ti strup v čaj,
zdaj vem kaj je razlog da te ni nazaj,
nimam izgovorov,
jaz samo ne bi rad na koncu sam ostal.

Če bi imela denar,
in vse zlato,
ti bi znala narediti iz tega pravljico,
in nedolžen jok,
spremeniš v smeh,
in na Zemlji prirediš vsem nepozaben ples.

Če si ti vladar,
bi imela moč,
vsi ljudje bi se zabavali vsako noč,
a le meni to,
ni nikoli šlo,
moja ladja še na suhem potonila bo.

A ne vidiš da samo,
a ne vidiš da samo.

Dajem ti strup v čaj,
zdaj vem kaj je razlog da te ni nazaj,
nimam izgovorov,
jaz samo ne bi rad na koncu sam ostal.

A Thought

"It's weird.
I always used to assume, that I would meet someone
and fall in love and be happy
and that all that was just a given.

But lately it's like
what if it's not.

Do you ever have that feeling?"

"No …
Yeah,
all the time,
constantly.

It's terrifying."
