Letzter Eintrag 2004

Jetzt ist es also an der Zeit Bilanz zu ziehen. Wieder ein Jahr vorbei. Und ein neues beginnt.

Ich gehöre nicht zu den Menschen, die Listen von guten Vorsätzen führen, die sie dann brechen. Also kann ich jetzt hier auch nicht auflisten, was ich alles nicht geschafft habe.

2004 war ein eigenartiges Jahr. Ein Jahr mit vielen wirren Gefühlen. Ein Jahr der Ungewissheit und des Zweifels. Alles in Frage gestellt, keine Antworten gefunden.

Über eines bin ich froh: Ich bin meiner Mutter gefühlsmässig ein Stück näher gekommen und fange an zu verstehen.

I am what I am ...

... and what I am needs no excuses.

by Gloria Gaynor

Habe gerade ein paar Monate zurückgedacht, und dabei festgestellt, dass der allererste Impuls wohl der Richtige war. Ich hätte gar nicht erst anfangen sollen zu denken und zu reden. Gar nicht erst zuhören und versuchen zu verstehen. Letztendlich weiss der eigene Bauch immer am besten, was gut für Dich ist.

2003 Juli (20)

I'm catchin' this south bound train
I've had enough of the pouring rain
Chilled to the bone
I have to go.

Love was never a friend of mine
the only friend that I have is time
It's down the track
Ain't looking back.

Mexico, o Mexico
I long to see your border town
Mexico, o Mexico
Adios mi corazon.

The cars are clickin' the night along
But all I hear is a heartbreak song
Haunting me
Relentlessly.

Come the morning and I will stand
On the banks of the Rio Grande
A brand new day
Wash those tears away.

Mexico, o Mexico
I long to see your border town
Mexico, o Mexico
Adios mi corazon.

There's nothin' like the feel
Of the steel against the steel
And you can't forget
The crying of the rail.

There's nothin' like the sight
Of a moonlit desert night
To heal a broken heart
That was so frail.

Mexico, o Mexico
I long to see your border town
Mexico, o Mexico
Adios mi corazon.

O Mexico. mhm...

You say you want to be friends
Thats a newly sharpened blade
That's a dagger to the heart
Of the promises we made
That's a chapter full of pain
A season full of rain
A dark and stormy night
Spent all alone

Friends
Get scattered by the wind
Tossed upon the waves
Lost for years on end
Friends
Slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you
Now and Then
But you wanna be
Just friends

You say you love me very much
And you'll always hold me dear
Those are the sweetest words
I never want to hear
What's a love without desire
A flame without a fire
Can't warm me late at night
When I need you most

Friends
Get scattered by the wind
Tossed upon the waves
Lost for years on end
Friends
Slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you
Now and Then
But you wanna be
Just friends

Friends
Slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you now and then

Darling can't you see
This is killing me
We could never be
Just Friends

Never wanted this

Manchmal muss man Dinge tun, die man nie tun wollte, weil man sonst eingeht... Und trotzdem hat man dabei das Gefühl zu sterben.

When your heart is all alone
Every second seems so long
When it's just you, you can't see through
Those ol' clouds that rain so blue

But when somebody loves you
There's nothing you can't do
When somebody loves you
It's easy to get through
When somebody loves you
The way I love you

When it's late, the sun hangs low
By yourself, nowhere to go
Sing a song, you dance alone
Play solitaire and stare at the phone

But when somebody loves you
There's nothing you can't do
When somebody loves you
It's easy to get through
When somebody loves you
The way I love you

So let's put aside our foolish pride
And let our hearts say hello
We both agree we're just no good
At bein' on our own

'Cause when somebody loves you
There's nothing you can't do
When somebody loves you
It's easy to get through
When somebody loves you
The way I love you

The way I love you
The way I love you

I made the worst mistake
One fool could ever make
Tell me it’s not to late
What can I do

If I could hold you tight
I’d have the world tonight
Everything would be alright
If I had you

Job für eine Freundin

Eine Freundin von mir hat dieses Jahr ihren Job verloren, weil die Firma in eine andere Stadt umgezogen ist. Sie wohnt in Mexiko Stadt in eher ärmlichen Verhältnissen mit ihrem kleinen Sohn bei ihrer Mutter. Ihr Einkommen hat sozusagen die kleine Familie ernährt.

Jetzt sucht sie seit einigen Monaten einen neuen Job, und ich überlege gerade, wie ich ihr dabei helfen könnte. Sie hat keinen Schulabschluss, schreibt so wie sie redet (grammatikalisch nicht allzu korrekt) und kann auch sonst nicht allzu viele Qualifikationen vorweisen.

No one can make me cry, make me laugh
Make me smile or drive me mad like she does
It's like the curse that is the cure
Better or worse one thing's for sure
It's real love
And I don't know what I'd do
If I lost it.

...
Please tell me you will remember
No matter how much I do wrong
That I had the best of intentions all along

...
And if you could read my heart
Then you'd know without exception
It was all with the best of intentions

So here I am asking forgiveness
And praying that you'll understand
Don't think I take you for granted
I know just how lucky I am
Though you deserve so much better
You won't find devotion more true
Cause I've had the best of intentions

Hey baby I love you
Hey baby I need you
Hey baby you ain't got to prove to me
Your some kind of macho man
You wasted so much of your life running through the dark nights
Let me shine a little love light down on the blues man

you say you're heart's been broken
and you just can't win
you say that you'll never find love again
let me tell you friend

you can't give up on love
that's the one thing we've got to keep going
cause it don't come easy and it's so hard to hold
but you can't give up on love

looked out my window and what did I see?
it's another broken family
the kids are stayin' with mama at home
daddy's livin in a house all alone

you can't give up on love
that's the one thing we've got to keep going
cause it don't come easy and it's so hard to hold
but you can't give up on love

troubled times make it hard to stay
so many lovers take the easy way
but don't go crazy and jump ship too soon
cause everday can't be a honeymoon

you can't give up on love
that's the one thing we've got to keep going
cause it don't come easy and it's so hard to hold
but you can't give up on love

no you can't give up on love
oh you can't give up on love

I Made a promise to myself
Locked it way deep down inside
Told my heart we'd wait it out
Swore we'd never compromise

Oh I'd rather be alone
Like I am tonight
Than settle for the kind of love
That fades before the morning light

Silence stared me in the face
And I finally heard its voice
It seemed to softly say
That in love you have no choice

Today I got the answer
And there's a world of truth behind it
Love is out there waiting somewhere
You just have to go and find it

I believe in love
I believe in love
Love that's real
Love that's strong
Love that lives
On and on
Yes I believe in love

Some people have it
Some people don't
Some people never will
Sometimes its hard to know when you got it
Sometimes its perfectly clear
Well I know it's out there
I've seen it happen
I know the way it should feel
'Cause there's no mistakin
That good kind of achin
Of once in a lifetime

Once in a lifetime love
Love like we've all dreamed of
it may go disguised
right before you very eyes
once in a lifetime love

So if you think you've got it
You feel it inside ya
Don't let it slip away
You may not ever
Find what you never
Thought you had anyway
You've always had it
Just realize it
You know how lucky you are
To wake up beside
What some never find
A Once in a lifetime love

Once in a lifetime love
Love like we've all dreamed of
It may go disguised
Right before your eyes
A Once in a lifetime love

It may go disguised
Right before your eyes
A Once in a lifetime love

Ordinary ... no
Really don't think so
Not a love this true
Common Destiny
We were meant to be
me & you

Like a perfect scene
From a movie screen
We're a dream come true
Suited perfectly
For eternity
me & you

Everyday, I need you even more
And the night time too
Theres no way I could ever let you go, even if I wanted to

Everyday I live
Try my best to give
All I have to you
Thank the stars above, that we share this love
me & you

Everyday, I need you even more
And the night time too
Theres no way I could ever let you go, even if I wanted to

Ordinary, no
Really don't think so
Just a precious few
ever make it last
get as lucky as
me & you

X-Mas Shopping

Heute hatte ich Gelegenheit, die Vorteile des derzeit eher schwachen Dollars zu nutzen. Innerhalb von ca. drei Stunden habe ich die Hälfte aller meiner Weihnachtsgeschenke eingekauft. Und zwar dort: Woodfield Mall

Normalerweise werden solche kurzfristigen Geschenk-Einkauf-Aktionen immer teuer, weil ich mir da nicht die Zeit nehme, nach günstigeren Alternativen zu suchen. Heute hatte irgendendwie alles was mir gut gefallen hat auch den passenden Preis. ;-)

Forgive me if I'm keeping you apart from better conversation
Hung up on all my doubt trying to sort the whole thing out
Tell me that I'm smart enough to deal with all the information
Spinning inside my head every word he ever said

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home

Deep in the night
And by the light of day
It always looks the same
True love always does
Here by your side or a million miles away
Nothin' is ever gonna change the way I feel
The way it is, is the way that it was

When I said I do, I meant that I will
Til' the end of all time
Be faithful and true, devoted to you
That's what I had in mind, when I said I do.

Übersee

Flüge, die länger als 7 Stunden dauern sind echt eine Qual! Nach über 9 Stunden bin ich heute vollkommen kaputt in Chicago angekommen. 17h Nachmittags Ortszeit. Super, viel zu früh um schon schlafen zu gehen! Aber jetzt kann ich so langsam ist ja schon viertel nach neun...

Hab mich ein bißchen geärgert, dass ich nicht Business Class fliegen durfte. Aber dieser Shuttle Service hat dann doch ein wenig dafür entschädigt:

And the only thing
That keeps me sane, is comin home
When the sun goes down
You know how to set things right
Let's put the day behind us
And bring on the night

Bring on the night
And pull down the shades
Lock the world outside
And throw the key away
And turn on the feelings
And turn out the lights
Lets call it a day
And bring on the night

There's so many things I didn't say
And even though it may be too late
I want you to know I still love you so
...

When I close my eyes you're all I see
In the dark of night you're in my dreams
Throughout the day you're easy to find
You're always there when I close my eyes.

In my mind I know you're far away
But here in my heart nothing has changed
I'm still holding you like I used to

Well I never thought I'd be
lying here without you by my side.
It seems unreal to me,
that the life you promised was a lie.
You made it look so easy,
making love into memories.
I guess you got what you wanted,
but what about me? 'cause

Without you I'm not okay,
And without you I've lost my way.
My heart's stuck in second place.
ooh ,Without you.

Somebody tell my head to try to tell my heart,
That I'm better off without you.

And that's why God mad Mexico
A place where we can lay low
Where the Cuervo goes down nice and slow
And the warms winds blow
That's why God made Mexico

Life is sweet in a border town
You learn to let your hair down
And you don't make trouble
You learn to dance the fandango

You change your name and you change your face
Get used to beans and chili paste
And you learn to live and love life in the slow lane
