I was just watching Så som i Himmelen. It reminded me that I am exactly who I am and I should make the most out of it. This is my chance to live and maybe I shouldn't be wasting life on having lazy Sundays lying on the couch. Or maybe that's exactly how one should spend one's life: in relaxation, drinking coffee and watching Swedish movies. Why waste it on stress? What is the waste here?
That's probably the point. You're only wasting if you feel like you are wasting. Today was not wasted away, despite the fact that the freshest of air that I got was when I opened the window. I'm still wearing pyjamas. And I did get some work done. If washing one's clothes is concidered work.
Gabriella sang, in the movie, that she wanted to feel like she's lived her life. I think I probably have, uptil now, done so, and I certainly hope that I'll be carry on doing so. But sometimes someone needs to pinch you and say: "Fucking hell! Enjoy what you're doing! You'll only do that exact thing once!"
On a lighter note, (A 440 Hz to be specific, I just bought a tuning fork), the only things that inhabit our mailbox are bills from eneco, advertisements for crappy electronics and a thick phone book.
Feel free to change that. I accept post cards, letters, fake-anthrax, love-letters, boxes of chocolate, roses or tulips, lava-rocks or wedding rings.
The address is
Inga Audbjorg
William Boothlaan 7c
3012 vg Rotterdam
the Netherlands
(Post Scriptum:
I just listened to our, our as in Iceland's, tribute to the Eurovision Song Contest in Serbia later this year. It seems to have the exact same theme as this blog and thus Gabriella's Song in As it is in Heaven. Coincidence?)
