Love


"Because the world is round it turns me on
Because the wind is high it blows my mind

Love is all, love is new
Love is all, love is you

Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry
Because the sky is blue. "
 

from Because by Beatles

Just came across the blog of two people in love.

I knew her as a "little sister" of a classmate" in my early 20s and there she was a collegue in my mid 30s. Elegant, moderate, graceful.. She became the image of model female in me. A charming young woman,  no more a little sister.

I knew him as a manager at work. Serious, a hidden fun, creative, solid. He was very helpful, gave me generous  advices in my next job. A bright young man.

He wrote on their first date " I am 14 years older. Do I really want a relationship again?.. What if I get hurt again?.."

I found in his words, Love that was mine once with my older lover.

Oh Love.. Love.. We inhabit you. We are you. We were you and we will be you.

Oh Love, I will be you again.

But for now they are Love. So inspiring, so bright, so fearful, so right.

  1. When I first saw you, I took you in my heart. Like family, like a sister (they say doubt most the ones call you sister, but not me). May be it was an age where boys and girls were able to be friends. Just friends. Life took us into separate ways but I kept you in my heart.
    One day, our roads crossed again. I was very happy to find you back. But we went on a trip together in the past. I stopped at the edge of a cliff. And you said, "Jump! You can fly". It's not your fault that I have wrecked my life. But friends tell each other the truth. You should have told me that I can't jump of that cliff. That makes you no friend to me.
    Although, it deeply saddens me, and I can't stop loving you, we won't be friends anymore.

  2. Dear Anonymous,

    I am unable to guess who you are.
    I am sorry that you see your life as a wrekedge at the moment. I am mostly sorry that you are anonymous and do not have a name here.
    There were and still times where I felt/feel that I screwed up and never felt/feel that I wrecked my life. If I have a regret I go back and I apologise.

    And jump off the cliffs because that is MY decision and not someone else's.

    I jump off the cliffs if I believe to do so.

    And I fly.

    And never accuse myself of having jumped off of a cliff. And am so proud I do what I believe in.

    Hope you this pride.

    And hope that you'll remember your name again.

    Love,
    b
