The Girl on the Road

I wanted to write about my favorite scene in my favorite film PS I Love you . I don't want to go to details about the plot itself, just the thoughts that this scene wakes in me. Here is a clip from that scene but its much longer than that so please watch the film itself <3 She can be her goofy self and he doesn't understand what shes talking about but he starts to love her just for that, for being herself. Through a letter that he wrote before he past away, he tells her about the thoughts he had and the thoughts that stayed with him from that moment. He takes her back to where they started. In the end of the letter he tells her that he doesn't worry about her remembering him, but its that girl on the road she keeps forgetting. I used to link this scene and the feelings it wakes in me to the thought that what if I meet that someone like that, on a road somewhere, in a foreign country, or on the countryside ? You know, in a romantic situation.. But as I started t

All by myself

I had the most wonderful thing happen to me, it was love, just like out of a film.. actually, it was in a film. And I was sitting on the couch, by myself, just me, eating left over chocolates from Christmas (okey left over may sound kind of crappy, they where after all Belgian.. <3 )... And it was so romantic that I even clipped my toenails on the same table.. okey that's not romantic at all... but I'm by myself, so I can do whatever I want and soon I'm going to be living in and sharing a house with 4 other people for the next 6 months and maybe longer after that, so I'm taking everything out from these last few days as a lonesome. Well, anyway, the point wasn't to write about my single living alone behaviour or how I almost stumble in to my suitcases lying on the floor (and covering most of it actually).  I guess the point was more to write about love (Again .. :D) but what I meant was that feeling you get when you watch a film like that, by yourself, with n

To take it easy (learning to do 1 thing not 10)

Do you stress ? I stress a lot.  The past days I've been kind of busy with making sure that all the forms/document for my exchange and moving are correct, and the truth is, there hasn't really been that much that needed to be done (since I started fixing everything many many months ago), just some small things that are easily fixed, so why do I get so stressed about them? I always do that, I panic and I make things a bigger deal than they probably actually are, just because what if it turns out that its a big deal, than I have to do everything, and I mean everything to try to fix it, sometimes it feel like I almost search for the problems just so that I will have a solution for it if it decides to  suddenly run into me. But the thing is, I should just do what I can and then relax because I've already done what I can do for now. Over thinking doesn't usually mean that you came up with anything smart, or at least in my head it sound more like a stressed out parrot wh

How do you know - healthy love

It's not easy knowing whether what you found is right, is this love real ? Is this love safe ? How do I truly feel ? It can be difficult to be honest with ourselves. I usually (or well, those few times I get this far) try to ask myself these 3 following questions, and I hope they can help you too; 1.   If all you had was an empty white room, could you sit there with just them, as they are, and would they sit there with you ? Do you love them for them, or for the things that come with ? Do we love them for a hobby that they have. their family or friends, their social status, A high position at a fancy company or the ability to treat us with luxuries ? And how about them, what is it that they love about You, is it You they love ? Would they be enough as they are, would you love them even without all those things? And how about them ? Sometimes there might even be things that come with that we find annoying or that we don't like, or in worst case makes us feel unsafe
