I have a dream

Christmas time is near my dear readers, what does this mean to you?

Will you hide or run away, fly or travel away...?

Or will you do nothing but rest yourself or once again blame yourself being on a place you don't want to be?

Do we have to be religious to celebrate Christmas, to like it? Are Christians the only one to be allowed to only celebrate the time? Well I come from a country where most people where not religious at all. Only 20% where part of a religious family. But the most of us did celebrate Christmas and knew the reason why there was this celebration.

............................................................of course we loved the presents, the Christmas tree and all the songs. To eat good and come together with the family or parts of them. To not work or go to school. But at least, it always was a time to stop our running in everyday live..... It always was a time to think about the year which is to start to come to end. We always where talkin' about family stuff and politics and the job and what we've been through and learned and what we've earned and what we wish for next year.

To talk with your family about the year, I think is very important. And yes, no matter how your family looks like, these people are those who you trust and after all they often give you the best advises.

.......I know there are people who don't celebrate Christmas.
I know some do it, because they are just and simple alone. Others don't like Christmas of different reasons. And then we have all those who don't celebrate this time because the religious they are part of don't have this in content. But I invite them all to use this time to think, to dream, to talk, to meet... to love and laugh. Don't try to stay home alone if you can, this is so sad and you can always find someone to share your time with. But this means to look out and see to find the right people. Not the first best is the best man. But maybe the second one you meet.
Oh, and remember... there is no need for stressing :-)
.......I love to decorate my flat like you can see on my pics. Every year a bit different. I always do it for me--myself--and I...

:-) yes, I think to many still have in mind..."Oh the the neighbors what they might think. Everyone should see how good we have it. We're better than you, look here. I say.... let's lose our fear and trust in us, ourself!

.....Every year my feeling for Christmas starts at a another time. Sometimes it depends on the snow, sometimes on the work, sometimes on the music I hear. But always when the time is right I start to see, to look and reflect. ............................................................ and so do comes my wishes, my dreams.....

I have a dream

I have a dream of a world

finally living in peace

the dream of people waking up and realize

with love they can make peace

stop fighting agains all those scrap

start being the better man

I have the dream of people

respecting each other

no matter where you're from

loving each other

no matter how old or young

my dreams contains that we

cherish each other

look out for another

that we

will be nice to the nature again

and see we have all we need

to live in peace

to make this world a better place

and break the power of some people

who only want us to be stupid

to be slaves of money

I have a dream

that we all remember that we are one

one system of energy

one system of life

one

that we always remember

all bad you do is bad for all

all hurting you do

is hurting you

all suffer you bring

is suffering the world

brings unhappy times

bringing crime and lies

and so I have a dream of you and me

playing games on the streets

without fear and doubt

that we love each other no matter what

in all the ways we can love one another

that we can enjoy the sun

every flower on the way we walk

every child which is born

every old man who gives us wise advises

that mankind rises

I have a dream

that we

respect

every step we go

and every drop of water

we get and drink and wash with

every life

each type

I have a dream

LOVE & LIGHT

how romantic are we?

This is an answer to a blog of a friend... he ask about the fact...are we to romantic or pragmatic? Kinda like this.

Well we all saw and see the movies with all the lovely times in it, all the big love stories and romances...

My friend thinks films doesn't show the reality like wakin' up and smelling the workin' day comin' to you instead of smelling a fresh cup of coffee or the dear perfume of your loved ones...

He writes about hunting to get the bus in the mornin' and missing the romance in the daily live..

When do we really have the opportunity to experience the big romance like in the movies?

But I remember a few movies from nowadays which shows part of the reality we all know very well from everyday... Sure, a film used to be around 90 min long and so no wonder it can't show all the long discussions and fighting and searching and wakin' up in a hurry every day... but they do show a peace of it already. Bu I also remember some movies, old and nice who show these things too... of course all fits in the drama... or storyline... But would we like to watch these things so much?

Yes sometimes people which to have the same passion for romance like in the movies. Well it is maybe just a question of how you look on it. You think there is no romance in your life or just a bit to less to be real? Well then let's take a look...

Do we wish flowers from time to time from our beloved one... a massage or coffee to bring in the mornin' then maybe you have to talk about this, say what you would like to have, what you dream of and... most important do these things too do these things by yourself too, I mean bring the coffee, bring the rose to your beloved one...

Oh you are startin' now tellin' me the real live does have to much too less time and energy left to do such...

then... folks let's just remember... these little romantic things are easy to do... it's just to think of them, remember them and do it.

Is it that easy? Yes my dear friends it is, but we like to forget and have so many reasons just to do other way 'round...

Still there's a way to come back to the point where you started your time with your loved once, the time full of love and joy and ... a lot of free time...

How? Romance has to do with love and an open mind, open eyes and ears.... So open them again, see the little things around you... the lovely sunshine, the spring startin', the smell of the first cup of coffee, the warm bed, the way home, the nice flower on the table next to you.........

See them and smile and feel yourself happy, be grateful... seeing those little things, can make you start create little lovely and romantic moments, like to light a candle in the afternoon...

Be yourself worth it and give romance to yourself... because romance has less to do with two people loving each other.. it's more loving yourself in a positive way and to refer this to someone or just to you...

My friends when you come home tired after work and just lay down in the armchair and having your cat beside you and you feel powerless.. remember.. in a film, this is a romantic scene! You and your cat.. what a lovely pic!

So change your point of view...! Your live has a lot of little romantic pieces.. !

But then you ask me again.. What are with the big and passionated romantic moments...??? Well if you want them YOU have to create them, try to take your time for them... again... you once did it.... so you can do it again... still I think movies maybe are also a medium to remind us not to forget that romantic moments are able to liv in your life, no matter if you're single, a couple or whatever...

I know it seems to be a common thought out there that romance passed away after a little time when you are together with someone... well, that's untrue... it just depends on you!

LOVE LETTERS

Love letters of great man and women...

...is a book I found not long ago, but heard of a year or two ago...

A book with letters from different people of different times...

Starin' with great man some lived around 1980 and finished in the year 1918... and then goes on with great women of time from 1399 till 1917...

All letters have an introduction of the man or the women, who wrote a letter or two we are aloud to read. We have great names like King Henry the eight... or Richard Steele, Laurence Sterne or W, Amadeus Mozart, Napoleon and Gustave Flaubert, but also Katherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn or Queen Victoria and Emily Dickinson and many more names. Names you maybe never heard before or just have somewhere in the back of your mind. But it's not so much about the names, it' s the letter you get...

No matter if Oscar Wilde is writing, you read it too- not only the one who was mentioned.

Reading all those letters is reading something special, but also something we never really got an idea of... these letters are neither full of drama or only with painful worths in our eyes... No, these letters have passion inside, drama as well, but also description of love feelings, of how love gets them feeling and how they come through a day without the beloved once... you feel kind of warmth.. Many wrote to the love affair and others to a friend they fell in love with. Some got an answer, others never got the love replied. But all letters are a little peace of hope and kind of joy...

Reading them gives you a touch of feeling a warm breeze and then I think these letters are god to read at an open fire place or next to candlelight, but as I do... also god to read in the underground.. well god for fall and wintertimes... the letters are like short stories.. simple pleasure of reading and yes you might ask yourself, why is this not something we do today.. Above all internet, above all computers, mobiles and things like this.. why not just write your loved one a letter like this... some romance is never to late and it's not about to get a thank you or even an answer... it's just the joy of sitting and enjoying someone with lovely worths... afraid of stereotype? Why not.. those man and woman didn't choose them often but had sometimes big self-confidence... but never where afraid of using words....

Yes a smile can say more than words, but when you're not at home... why not writing.. it's never to late to start... don't tell me about no having no time, or nobody will read it.. no excuses...no more...

LOVE & LIGHT
