A iubi

"A iubi inseamna a ierta; a iubi inseamna a mantui pe celalalt in sufletul tau; a iubi inseamna a dori mantuirea celuilalt; intr-un anumit fel toti dorim schimbarea ceilulalt in bine - fara a putea forta insa dorinta libera a nimanui. "

l-am citat pe cumnatul meu, Victor Alexandrescu, un inginer electronist la Los Angeles, plecat de 15 ani ("rapit" de fapt), care are 6 copii. Cu trei a plecat din tara, a mai facut doua gemene in LA, si ultimul (ca si primul) este un baiat. Sunt atat de frumosi cu totii...Iar el, este exact opusul fratelui sau, sotul meu, este un ortodox model., cum rar intalnesti printre barbati. Al meu, in schimb, nu a reusit sa depaseasca dorinta de senzatii, si cred ca mi s-a urat sa tot lupt cu dorinta lui "libera". Am fost o luptatoare toata viata mea. Am obosit intrucatva, fiindca am imbatranit. Batrana nu ma simt, dar neputintele, uneori ne doboara la propriu. Se cuvine sa iau o pauza, vorba aia, take a break, take a breath of fresh air ...uneori, a iubi inseamna mai degraba sa renunti la cel pe care-l iubesti, daca el nu se poate desprinde de o idee rasarita in creier, o idee ca o dorinta, ori chiar ca o pre-judecata. Mai cunosc un caz...e nevindecabil de pre-judecatile cu care s-a infratit, mai ceva decat cu oamenii....

These are the days of the endless summer
These are the days, the time is now
There is no past, there's only future
There's only here, there's only now

Oh your smiling face, your gracious presence
The fires of spring are kindling bright
Oh the radiant heart and the song of glory
Crying freedom in the night

These are the days by the sparkling river
His timely grace and our treasured find
This is the love of the one magician
Turned the water into wine

These are the days of the endless dancing and the
Long walks on the summer night
These are the days of the true romancing
When I'm holding you oh, so tight

These are the days by the sparkling river
His timely grace and our treasured find
This is the love of the one great magician
Turned the water into wine

These are the days now that we must savor
And we must enjoy as we can
These are the days that will last forever
You've got to hold them in your heart.
