Thank You for 2009

You magnify my happiness
When I am feeling glad;
You help to heal my injured heart
Whenever I am sad.You’re such a pleasure in my life;
I hope that you can see
How meaningful your friendship is;
You’re a total joy to me.

Winter Solstice

Winter Solstice

The birthday of the Sun and of the year. We experience the greatest darkness, the hours of darkness are so much greater than the hours of daylight. And yet, it is within this time of greatest darkness that the Light of the World is reborn, for now the hours of daylight will begin to grow and the hours of darkness will lessen.

JACKPOT!!!

A JACKPOT




Lost in Translation?

I am sometimes very frustrated when I lack all the tools
needed to express myself in English, and I can only imagine
the trouble You have seen ... when trying to understand me.
I want to thank You Blogspotters for having great patience
with me, myself and I.

The Innocence of Snow Revised

Mute Monday: The Star(s)

Teach Me Tiger!

Stars are best described as massive luminous balls.
Some Stars think they had a great ball.
Stars are what You see when You are hit and hurt.


Lesson Learned:
Don't mess with a Swedish Woman.

Lucy in the Sky

The celebration of St Lucy spread over all of Europe. But the place where she is most beloved is Scandinavia, where light is especially welcome in the long hours of winter darkness. On her day, the eldest (or youngest) daughter rises before dawn and fixes a breakfast of special pastries and coffee for her family. She appears in their bedrooms, dressed in a white dress belted with a red sash, and wearing a wreath of greens and four (or seven or nine) lighted candles. Sometimes the wreath is made of green rue and decorated with red ribbons. She serves traditional pastries called lussekatter (or Lucy cats), x-shaped pastries, sometimes flavored with saffron. Other traditional foods served in her honor include saffron buns, ginger biscuits and glogg, a hot spiced wine with aquavit.

With this post I throw some thoughts and light upon my friends living in the Northern hemisphere and those of You that see darkness around You, despite the presence of the Sun. I hope there will be light falling upon us all, but most of all - You are the Light of my Life!

Have a lovely light season,

Who Knows?

WINTER LIGHT

Hearts call
Hearts fall
Swallowed in the rain

Who knows
Life grows
Hollow and so vain


Wandering in the winter light
The wicked and the sane
Bear witness to salvation
And life starts over again


Now the clear sky is all around you
Aah aah
Love's shadow will surround you
All through the night


Star glowing in the twilight
Tell me true
Hope whispers and I will follow
'Till you love me too


Ah ah ah


Now the clear sky is all around you
Aah aah
Love's shadow will surround you
All through the night


Star glowing in the twilight
Tell me true
Hope whispers and I will follow
'Till you love me too


Ah ah ah

UNITE for CLIMATE Result - So far

Your vote will be presented to world leaders at the COP15 UN climate summit in Copenhagen, telling them to seal a fair and effective climate deal.

http://www.showyourvote.org/vote?skin=mini

This is how the engagement looks (so far):

1. 1127481 Asian votes
2. 37149 African votes
3. 26154 European votes
4. 17924 Oceanic votes
5. 12885 South American votes
6. 7495 North American votes
7. 16 Antarctic votes

Of course, the voting has to be related to Internet access and population, but, even so, it can by an ocular survey give a pretty fare picture of the citizens engagement in saving our planet. IF you have a hint of population and Internet access, and even electricity distribution.

Shame on us!

Mute Monday: Visual Perception in The Computer Age

BB-ASCII Art

Beuna Note:
This Zebra is not created by me, but I intend to learn this ASCII Art Code.
Some say ASCII Art is stone-dead, but on Internet reincarnation works ;-)

NaiveGate!?!

In our enlightened time
is time our lacking prime
we miss colourful nuances,
indicators in the wave dance
and become castaway
and lost, far, far away


Have a Lovely Weekend,

Ohhh BAM! ahhh

President Barack Obama was surprised and humbled to win the Nobel Peace Prize of 2009 and would accept it as a "call to action" to work with other nations to solve the problems of the 21st century. (The White House)

Obama said it is still in America's vital national interest to "dismantle and destroy" al-Qaida terrorists and extremist allies. "I intend to finish the job," he said. (West Point)

Please, explain to me ....

Thinking of You

Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed

You said move on
Where do I go
I guess second best
Is all I will know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes

You're like an Indian summer
In the middle of winter
Like a hard candy
With a surprise center
How do I get better
Once I've had the best
You said there's
Tons of fish in the water
So the waters I will test

He kissed my lips
I taste your mouth
He pulled me in
I was disgusted with myself

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into...

You're the best
And yes I do regret
How I could let myself
Let you go
Now the lesson's learned
I touched it I was burned
Oh I think you should know

Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
Oh won't you walk through
And bust in the door
And take me away
Oh no more mistakes
Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay...
stay....
