<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Once I stopped looking for it, I saw your face, <br />
Never knew what this would turn into.<br />
One night, some cards, and a hallway made me see you in a new way.<br />
I never knew how badly I would be wanting to stay.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />
<!--[endif]--><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">It didn’t start
off perfectly, we jumped in too fast. <br />
One week and you asked us to last.<br />
I told you, there's no way, you smiled and made it feel so right.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br />
Two weeks down the line, we are laying on the grass.<br />
I hold your head in my hands.<br />And you're telling me none of what I asked.<br />
We’re rolling on the floor at 11 pm, crippling, crumbling and crying.<br />The end. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br />
I go to bed, I wake up, I’ve never felt like this before.<br />
Like somethings missing, like I got robbed of my most precious thing.<br />
Days go by, I see you smile.<br />I shed so many tears, sit outside the club, see nothing but dark. <br />I cry myself to sleep, I walk myself at night.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Then we talk.<br />You open up once more. <br />
Good communication that’s all we need. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br />We try and try and I say that I can't do
this no more.<br />
You try to make it work, its fucking with your mind.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">I come to
try and comfort you and then we find ourselves hand in hand,
heart to heart, like it’s the only thing we need. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">We give it
another shot, no point in acting like a fool, once its broken, no way to reconnect.<br />
Man was I wrong.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">As if that
is exactly what we needed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">It all
leads to more nights in the basement, Closer than ever before.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">We go away, drive hundreds of miles, learn to laugh, learn to smile, I give my all, you give me more.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">We curse and laugh, we cry and talk, we fight and hide, we joke all night.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

You were the light in my life, the yellow to my green. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Ich weiss nicht mehr weiter. Ich wünschte alles würde sich nur noch taub anfühlen. Ich kann den Schmerz nicht mehr ertragen, immer und immer wieder. Enttäuschung ist ein konstantes Gefühl geworden. Tag ein, Tag aus. Was auch immer ich versuche, nichts kommt an. Nichts wird geschätzt. Ich öffne mich, mein Herz, lass alles raus... Doch nie, nie bekomme ich die Chance mein wahres Ich jemandem zu offenbaren. Wieso kann das Glücl mich nie finden. Ich kann einfach nicht aufgeben. Nicht aufhören dannach zu suchen. Egal was ich versuche, es wird nur noch schlimmer. Ich wünschte mir es würde aufhören. Der Schmerz, die Tränen, die Gefühle. Wieso ende ich immer in einer Sackgasse. Niemand da. Niemand da für mich. Niemand der mich auffängt. Niemand der auf mich wartet. Allein. Immer allein. Konnte nie lieben. Meine Liebe will niemand. Ich verstehe es nicht. Wieso ist es immer das selbe. Deine Nähe tut mir weh. Ich brauche sie. Deine Worte schneiden mich wie Glasscherben. Aber mein Körper schreit nach diesem Schmerz. Wieso. Wieso kann ich nicht glücklich sein. Ich dachte diesmal wäre es anders. Dachte diesmal bedeute ich jemandem was. Dachte diesmal ist es soweit. Dachte jemand wäre für mich da. Dachte ich wäre was besonderes. Wunschdenken. Nichts ist wie es scheint. Es tut einfach nur so unglaublich weh. </div>

<br />
<br />
"I've finally come to terms with the fact that it is better to let you go.<br />
I'm slowly starting to realise that the only reason I couldn't let go of you for over 2 years now is the fact that you were never actually here. <br />
As hard as it is to physically let go of people, I feel like it is even harder to let go of memories; Of the certain image we have in mind of someone.<br />
This image that has been with me for such a long time now, that has always given me hope that someday i will be back in your arms, back to where I was the happiest I have ever been.<br />
<br />
If we are around people, they slowly begin to live in our hearts.<br />
But if we are apart from someone and all we have left are memories? These memories do live in our souls. And it is so incredibly difficult to let go of th<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
is.<br />
How do we let go of something that has never really been here?"<br />
<br />
<br />
//<br />
<br />
"Isn't it funny how everyone slowly begins to find they're 'missing piece', or think they did. I actually don't believe in the concept of feeling incomplete without someone else.. but still:<br />
I wonder what happens to those who have been broken so many times on their way trying to find the missing piece, that no other piece seems to fit anymore? What happens to the lost souls that are only existing, not living anymore?"<br />

<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">I'm laying bed
feeling nothing but the warmth of your body pressed closed to mine. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">A very comforting feeling actually.</span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Until I realize that you’re not here.</span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> It were only my thoughts desperately longing
for you presence. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">My thoughts trick me, they trick me all the time. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">They make
me believe you are so close. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">
The thought of you takes me away. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Your words take me to a different place. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">They
take away the loneliness even if it’s just for a second and as soon as that
moments passes it hurts so much. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">
Bittersweet. <br />Needing you. <br />Nothing but you. </span><br /><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">And then I find
myself, contemplating, fearing that I might not feel the same way when I wake
up.</span></span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Have my thoughts tricked me again? </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Ruthless, unpredictable, going strong
and stronger. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Not stopping for anything or anyone. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Not letting anyone else
close to my heart. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">All my mind wants is you. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">You and me, in the place where we
left off. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Far away, in a space were nothing else mattered.</span><br /><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Is it only
the melancholy driving my feelings? </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Putting me in this head space? <br />Is it real? </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> </span><br /><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">May I find
myself here again, night after night.</span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Days just keep on passing by;<br /> but the
nights give me something. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">They give me you. </span><br /><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Even if it’s just for a fond little

Or have I?<br />
<br />
I would remember your favorite song and listen to it on repeat<br />
until the words were engraved onto my soul.<br />
I would watch you sleep and see the dark skies turn blue, while this peaceful breathing of yours took my dreams away.<br />
I would count the freckles on your face and darling, the way your eyes wrinkle when you smile,<br />
I still know them by heart.<br />
If the thought of you had a smell to it, it would smell like old lemonwood and pages of a book that haven't been touched in a very long time.<br />
<br />
But oh well,<br />
I have never truly loved I guess."<br />

I recently had a conversation with a really close friend of mine. A special someone that I unfortunately never get to see anymore due to the fact that theres a giant ocean inbetween, seperating us. However when we get to talk, our conversations usually end up in these late night/early in the morning 4 hours long talks.<br />
We talk about everything. He's just one out of a million; one of the few people you'll meet in life that will just easily captivate you with every single word they say. It's hard to believe but every conversation gives me so much, he's already taught me so much about life, the people in it and myself.<br />
When we were talking the other day, we touched on the topic of what we want our lives to be like in the future. And a few questions crossed our minds-<br />
Ever since people grow up they're taught to go to school, study hard, to then end up in a job that gives them nothing but pay their rent. I mean isn't there more to life?<br />
Why is it so weird to others, not knowing what you want? <br />
Why do people give you confused looks when you tell them, you don't want your life to be planned out from the start? <br />
People
associate being lost as something bad. Confusion is bad. Fear is bad.
What if these things arent bad at all? <br />
Why do we always, always have to know whats gonna happen next? <br />
I feel like people need to start to learn that it might sometimes be the right thing to just let go of their fixed plans; let go of their ideas of what should happen tomorrow, next week, next year or even in 3 years. <br />
Life has, and always will, turn out differently anyways. The tricky part is to understand that exactly this is the blessing we have in life<i> </i>and what we should be thankful for every day.<br />
<br />
So now I feel like I should end this post with some words of my friend, that have stuck with me ever since<i>: "Life is to precious to not do what you love. What else will you have to look back on in the future?"</i> <br />

<span class="pr">I'm feeling extra nostalgic today, so I thought why not write a blogpost on this bittersweet feeling I constantly find myself in. <br /><br /><i>Nostalgia is the</i> <i>pleasure and sadness that is caused by remembering something from the past and wishing that you could experience it again. </i></span></div>
<div class="social_media_container">
<span class="pr"><i><br /></i>Let's begin. No matter how cheesy this may sound but, I like to divide my life and myself into two parts:<b> before </b>my travels and <b>after </b>my travels.<br /> So, <i>before </i>I never really knew or experienced the true feeling of nostalgia. Of course I would feel sad after returning home from a nice trip, but that feeling would usually go away pretty quick, within the next few days. I never truly expected that only a few years later I would be finding myself in an excessive feeling of bittersweetness that sometimes would even become literal ache the longer I'd think about it. </span></div>
<div class="social_media_container">
</div>
<div class="social_media_container">
<span class="pr">On my travels I would sometimes, not often, think about how different life and all the people around me would possibly be when I return home. Will everything and everyone be the same? No, I definitely did not believe that this would be the case. <br />But when I came home I realized it: I had changed but home hadn't. It was almost as if time had been frozen here and I weirdly did not fit in anymore. </span></div>
<div class="social_media_container">
<span class="pr">But Isn't that somewhat understandable? After months and months of incredible adventures, mindblowing scenery, laughters, tears, despair, joy and endless happiness how could one possibly be the same person anymore? </span></div>
<div class="social_media_container">
<span class="pr">It is true: coming home is way harder than leaving home. Post-travel-depression is real! </span></div>
<div class="social_media_container">
<span class="pr">I found my true home when I was travelling, and surprisingly it isn't a destination.<br /> It is the unknown.<br /> It is the fear of where Im gonna be sleeping tonight. It is the joy of sitting in a crowded bar surrounded by people I met 5 minutes ago. It is the relieving feeling of checking in into a dirty 10 bed dorm after a long exhausting day. It is the smiling new faces I got to meet each and every day. It is the feeling of waking up in the morning and knowing there is a beautiful, foreign world outside there waiting for no one else but me.</span><br />

As for me, I fairly enjoy being alone in general, but a thing that helps me forget about the rushing world outside even more, is as simple as putting on some gentle tunes by Sam Beam. <br /><br />
To me there's nothing like listening to an artist with a soothing voice managing to calm me down each and every night. <br />

<br />
I recently discovered the instagram page of @wearealluncool which is a project with the goal to unite in our differences in order to make social media more genuine & realistic.<br />
<br />
I think living in the world we live in today, makes it sometimes hard not comparing yourself or your life to the lives of others. A huge contribution to this are of course the things we see on social media. People, including myself, tend to only post and present the good parts of their lives, happy days, laughters. We might even sometimes feel the need to present a certain facade on social media.<br />
And many times this can lead to a fake or wrong impression. <br />
Even the lives of the people we look up to aren't always full of sunshine and rainbows. We need to remember that the grass is and will always be greener on the
other side... unless we manage to fully focus on our goals and blessings in
life.<br />
<br />
However I wanted to get on board this awesome project of #wearealluncool. It's totally okay to embrace yourself, your flaws and what makes you YOU.<br />
So, here are a few of the things that make me not cool:<br />
<br />
<br />
1. My whole life I have never been scared of the dark until recently. I don't know why but I got so extremely scared of it and I hate it.<br />
<br />
2. I enjoy arguing.<br />
<br />
3. I cry over boys while listening to love songs and pretend I'm starring in a movie.<br />
<br />
4. I am terrible at giving advice. And I wish I was better at it, everytime someone comes up to me with their problems I am just kind of..there..not knowing what to say.<br />
<br />
5. I am extremely anxious and shy around people I don't know. <br />

<br />
So as I was just casually re-reading a bunch of conversations from 4 years ago it literally hit me in the face how much has changed. How much I have changed. The way I talk. What I say. And most importantely: The way I think.<br />
And I thought it was time to share some of my thoughts.<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>Dear 16 year old me,</i><br />
<br />
<i>If I would tell you where you are right now in life at the age of 20, you probably wouldnt believe a word I'd say.<br /> If I would tell you what you were able to experience during the last 2 years you would believe me even less. Those are things you can certainly look forward to. You you will have the time of your life.</i><br />
<br />
<i>However certain things concerning yourself have come to my attention. Right now you're torn between two guys, I guess. Let me tell you this: they're both not worth your time.<br />Honestly if you would know how much you'll laugh about this in 4 years time, man...</i><br />
<i>Anyways I know you're struggling right now so I'd rather give you some advice on how to handle the situation better (As I know you're not willing to turn any of them down at the moment, Oh dear.) </i><br />
<i>So here are my words to you:</i><br />
<i>Don't let these anyone fool you.</i><br />
<i>You are too nice. </i><br />
<i>Stop being so nice. </i><br />
<i>If someone treats you like crap then they are not worth your time. </i><br />
<i>Feelings will fade. </i><br />
<i>The pain will stop and will leave you with nothing but little scars, maybe. </i><br />
<i>But also don't waste your time hating anyone.</i><br />
<i>Focus on the bright sides of life, your life is awesome. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Love, </i><br />
<i>Your future self.</i><br />
<br />
<br />
Alright. I wonder if in 3 or 4 years time Im gonna look back at my 20 year olf self and feel the same way Im feeling towards my 16 year old self right now.<br />
I hope I won't stop making mistakes in the future because mistakes help me grow. <br />
I hope I won't stop changing because change is good.<br />
<br />
<i>Future I'm coming for you.</i><br />
<i>-Your 20 year old self.</i><br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">While many people try to destroy the dreamers desires with their negative minds and ungrounded doubts dreamers will stand behind you with their endless hopes cheering you towards your future.<br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Life will
become a colorful mosaic of hidden pathways, unexpected beauties, and
spontaneous transitions. </span></span><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Being in the current 'dreamer state' I'm in, I'm floating around between having the perfect future in mind and not knowing how exactly to get there. Which leads me to my next point: <br />Dreaming also includes feeling lost at times. <br />Sadly, people
associate being lost as something bad. Confusion is bad. Fear is bad.
What if these things arent bad at all? These things are life. And life is a Dream. <br />"People always focus on how to get somewhere they’re not right now. What’s wrong with the step youre on?"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Live the moment, give a lot and appreciate what you got right now. And most importantly don't forget to dream. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span><br />

I know I wouldnt be where I am today, if it wasnt for Him. I know I wouldn't have had the chance to experience the things I did, if it wasnt for God.<br />
Each day is a test of our ability
to move beyond the trials and tribulations no matter how hard or
difficult they may be. Life challenges us and makes us grow, always with the help of god.<br />
I haven’t always been so passionate about a
higher power.<br />
However my spiritual awakening keeps growing each and everyday, and I am so thankful to be able to go through such enlightement. Even though there are days when it's hard for me to keep going, I try to find my focus and I remind myself that everything happens for a reason. Where I am in life right now is excactly whre I am supposed to be. <br />
<br />
I know that I am blessed, and that life keeps blessing me every day. Thats also the reason I started trying to be grateful for every little thing like being able to hear the birdies whisteling in the early morning, seeing flowers begin to bloom, having light, having food, not having to wear a scarf to keep me warm for the first time this year, sun, moon, stars, tea, music, the smile this girl gave me the other day,.. this list could go on and on. <br />
<br />
However the point is, that my belief has made me grow stronger. Everyone is free to choose what they want to believe in or not. I know that my belief has given me something to lean onto, and I still try to find<span class="postbody"> and seek this guidance each and every day.</span><br />

Das könnte ganz interessant werden, weil ich immer auf der ständgen Jagd nach neuen Künstlern und Inspirationen bin. Diese sind dann meistens recht unbekannt aber dafür umso toller. <br />
<br />
Da dies mein erster Post in dieser Reihe ist, kann es hier einfach um keinen anderen gehen als meinen FAVORITE (of all time btw) : <b>James Bay.</b><br />
<br />
Wo fange ich an?<br />
Erstmals zu unserer Vorgeschichte: <br />
Das erste mal entdeckt habe ich ihn im Dezember 2013. Es war ein sonniger Nachmittag in Queenstown, Neuseeland. Ich hatte meine tägliche 10,5h Schicht bei Devil Burger noch vor mir, saß auf meinem Hochbett in Zimmer 3 der Alpine Lodge und scrollte durch Youtube.<br />
<br />
<br />
Das erste Lied auf das ich hierbei gestossen bin war <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UliIfbSyhjQ" target="_blank">Let it Go</a>.<br />
An seiner Stimme, und an der ganzen Art wie er singt war etwas, dass mich auf Anhieb gefesselt hat. Insbesondere die Atmosphäre genau dieser Gondola Sessions unterstützt das ganze nochmal.<br />
Mein Interesse war also geweckt und ich hörte mir mehr seiner Lieder an. Es war wirklich keins dabei welches ich nicht unglaublich schön fand!<br />
Seine Stimme ist so sanft, man spürt total wie er Herzblut in seine Musik steckt.<br />
Die drei meiner liebsten Lieder zu der Zeit waren: Move together, Let it Go und Need the Sun To Break. (Dies waren damals auch die Einzigen die es auf Youtube von ihm gab.) <br />
Ich finde es immer so unglaublich wie allein das Anhören eines dieser Lieder mich so in diese Zeit zurückversetzten kann..<br />
<br />
Es vergeht glaube ich kein Tag an dem ich nicht mindestens ein James Bay Lied höre.<br />
Mittlerweile ist "Hold Back The River" das wohl bekannteste von ihm.<br />
"Running" und "Scars" gehören auch beide zu meinen absoluten Favoriten.<br />
Ich bin so froh, dass es wirklich immernoch Künstler gibt die mit ihrer Musik Menschen, wie mich, bewegen und so viele Emotionen und Glücksgefühle wecken könne.<br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> Ich denke, jeder von uns leidet manchmal an einer Blindheit. Eine Blindheit, die von tief Innen kommt. Woher sie rührt, kann verschiedene Gründe haben: <br />Vielleicht wollen wir die Welt um uns nicht wahrnehmen, vielleicht wurden wir zu oft von ihr enttäuscht, vielleicht liegt es aber auch schlicht und ergreifend daran, dass wir nicht wissen was uns entgeht. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Jeder von uns befindet sich auf einer Reise. Eine Reise hin zum Schönen, zum Optimalen, hin zum Sorglosen. Auf diesem Weg allerdings scheitern wir so oft. <br /><i>"Even the best fall down sometimes [...] "</i><span style="font-family: inherit;">(C<span style="font-family: inherit;">ollide - Howie Day )</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Doch ist es im endeffekt denn nicht </span></span>genau dieses ständige Versuchen und Scheitern was letztendlich der Schlüssel zum Augen Öffnen ist<span style="font-family: inherit;">?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Wenn man es schafft Ja zum Spontanen zu sagen, Ja zum Abenteuerlichen zu sagen, Ja zum Ungewissen zu sagen gelingt es vielleicht die Welt um uns herum nicht nur in anderen Augen zu sehen, sondern <i>wir lernen anders zu sehen</i>. </span><br />

Dieses Thema liegt mir besonders am Herzen. Ganz einfach deshalb, weil ich so viele Emotionen, Gedanken und Gefühle damit verbinde und es besonders schwer ist all diese in Worte zu fassen.<br />
<i><br /></i>
Was ist ein Gap Year?<br />
Nun, ein <i>"Gap Year [...] bezeichnet den
Zeitraum zwischen zwei wichtigen Lebensabschnitten junger Menschen." </i><br />
Ich selber schätze mich extrem glücklich, diese Erfahrung gemacht zu haben. 18.354 km entfernt von hier.<br />
Es gibt so viele Gründe, wieso ich der Meinung bin, dass es die einzig richtige Entscheidung ist sich diese Auszeit zu nehmen. Und so lang wie nur möglich auszunutzen.<br />
<br />
Während so einer Zeit, in der man auf sich allein gestellt ist, lernt man so unglaublich viel über sich selbst und über die Menschen denen man auf dem Weg begegnet. <br />
Im Nachhinein ist es so unglaublich für mich persönlich zu sehen wie ich mich während dieser Zeit verändert habe, wie ich an all den Aufgaben gewachsen bin.<br />
Ich fand es früher immer ein bisschen sehr weit ausgeholt, zu sagen man würde auf so einer Reise "zu sich selbst finden" und sich von Grund auf komplett verändern, dennoch versteh ich mittlerweile so gut warum es vielen Menschen so geht.<br />
Um aber nochmal auf die Reise zurückzukommen, egal ob man nun 4 Monate, 6 Monate, ein Jahr oder 3 Jahre in der Weltgeschichte unterwegs ist, man wird in jedem Fall an seine Grenzen kommen, sei es psychisch, physisch oder auf sonst eine Weise. Und genau diese Grenzerfahrungen sind es schliesslich, die eine solche Zeit so unglaublich und unvergesslich machen.<br />
All die Menschen denen man begegnet, prägen die Zeit so unglaublich. Es ist so schwer all die Gefühle in Worte zu packen.<br />
<br />
Hier deshalb ein paar Worte die ich unterwegs aufgeschrieben habe und die meine Situation ein bsischen besser erklärten.<br />
<i>Wars das?<br />Was nimmt man mit? Eine Reise ohne Ziel, doch mit so
vielen Erfolgen, Bereicherungen. Menschen die das Leben lebenswerter
machten, die dir zeigten dass sich am Ende alles gelohnt hat, dir so
viel schöne Momente bescherten. Schwer loszulassen, unmöglich zu
vergessen.<br />Ich vermisse die Tage an denen wir mit unsere Herzen spielten, ohne Schmerz, nichts tat weh.</i><br />
<i>
</i><i>Vielleicht waren wir einfach zu verrückt für diese Welt.</i><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
