London: A message for you :)

Dear friends,

I wanted to let you all know that I'll just have a few days off now...but this doesn't mean I won't be wandering around London with my camera...day and night...well, more day than night, actually...
Anyway, I thank you all for visiting my blog, for supporting me and for giving me feedback regarding my posts. I've been trying to share my positive thoughts, the songs I love, the lyrics that inspired me, and relate them somehow with a personal perspective of the world...I hope it helped some of you to realize that life is fantastic, that everything around us is full of beauty (you just need time to see it)...or at least how wonderful is the macro world :)

A big hug for each and single one of you and anytime you need a friend, or just someone to talk to over a coffee, e-mail me: ciobanu.cati@gmail.com. Don't worry about my availability. I don't have a job :)

See you on the 4th of January!

P.S. And do try to make your dreams come true. It might not be easy, but it's so worth it, trust me on this one!

Bronchitis

London: Red guitar...

"I heard he sang a good song
  I heard he had a style
  and so I came to see him
  and listen for a while

  And there he was this young boy,
  A stranger to my eyes
  Strumming my pain with his fingers
  Singing my life with his words
  killing me softy with his song

killing me softly with his song
telling my whole life
with his words
killing me softly with his song

I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters
and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
but he just kept right on...

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
killing me softy with his song.
He sang as if he knew me
In all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me
As if I wasn't there
And he kept on singing
Singing clear and loud

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softy with his song"
(Roberta Flack, Killing me softly
