At some point in their life, I think everyone gets to a point where they reflect on their past experiences and decide what more there is to be done in life. I have done something like that today. But because I feel I have so much to say about these, I am going to do several posts (don’t know how many yet, we’ll see) about what I want to do in life. And I am going to write about one or two things per post, depending on how much I have to say about them. Hope you enjoy reading these, and maybe find some things that you too want to do. Or maybe you have done some of these already! If you have, I would love for you to comment about it. Okay here we go!

Get married
I think for those of you who have bared with me a while longer, this is something rather obvious, and it has been that way for me too. True love, for which I miraculously still have faith for, to me demands marriage. But of course, marriage itself as a goal would be stupid. There’s no point in marrying someone just to get married. So that’s why I need an other goal.

Fall in love
That’s probably even more obvious to you :D But it’s true. I don’t feel the need to present much argument for this. I’ve never met a person who hasn’t wanted to fall in love. Sure we all have moments when we think, fuck love, but sooner or later we’ll still end up wanting to feel it. I’m really not that into rap music, but this Finnish rap song really has a cute take on love. The artists are Leijonamieli and Putkimiehet (Literally The lion mind and the plumbers) and the song is called “Laulu sadepäivän varalle” (A song for in case of a rainy day) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rr4Jca-V9s. Enjoy the sound of Finnish C:
Here are the lyrics in English, translated by me:
Sometimes it rains, sometimes it shines, this is my song for in case of a rainy day.
CHORUS:
This is my song for in case of a rainy day
I know I won’t stay alone
Something great was missing
The direction of the wind of my life changed
I can see the sun already
What is the thing for which sake you have resorted to desperate acts
The thing for which sake there has been war and murder
But without it one is so very frustrated
What is the thing who cuddles you and to whom you unload your sorrows
The thing that makes you think “what the f**k”
since because of it both your eyes and jaw drop.
Many people have to search it from deep down
To ask it from the above in their nightly prayers
Young people search for it, it supports in the midst of worry
It brings out the most sensitive side in the toughest of men
Everybody searches it, some will never find it
It puts down the arrogant, and raises up the humble
It is thrown away in anger
It gets you to collect seven flowers under your pillow on midsummer night
When I look at it I see so many d*mn good things
that to describe it I need Dave’s big pen
CHORUS
Now she sleeps next to me, burrowed in my armpit
At her most beautiful with the shape of the pillow pressed on her cheek
It’s the feeling of togetherness on dark nights
when both my soul and body tingle under her touch
when she came to visit me for the first time
she gave coloured pencils to my black and white world
causing a never-ending beating of my heart
forcing me to seek an answer to the question
Why me
Why did it choose me, a man who has shards of glass in his heart
Why me
Why did it choose me, a man who yesterday painted a devil to a wall
The answer:
It doesn’t ask us time or place
It gets our priorities straight, it renews us
It was lost, but has now come back
It’s the worlds greatest feeling -being in love!
CHORUS
This is probobly my favourite part
For so long the sun rose black
you’re heart starts to hurt when you walk alone in the darkness for long enough
thinking, won’t these days give me any light at all
That’s when I saw a flash from the sun under the gray sky
I want to believe in faith and build it with you
In the middle of the storm you stood, at the end of a rainbow
S**t piles up but that too I can all carry
When I’ve got someone next to me, with whom to divide the burden
CHORUS x2
Phew, that was it. And this is one of the reasons why I normally don’t like rap music. The lyrics are soooo long. Hope someone had the patience to read those through, because there are many great points in it about love.
