Dear Bloggers,
Sometimes there are moments in life where shivers
run down your spine. This may be of emotion, love, fun moments on television
because you're sick, happy or maybe sad or filled with
grief. Outside these emotions or feelings, there are many other causes
consisting of emotion and chills. When I look up to the sky, I see the
beautiful white clouds floating and an airplane flies over with a leaving a
beautiful white trail behind on its way towards the sun. Sitting at the
computer at home I hear the music on the radio as an emotional tone makes my
thoughts play.
Listening to Glennis Grace a great Dutch artist
singing “Dat is mijn wens,” translated “That is my wish,”I remember most of the
beautiful things in my life. The life which today includes also anxiety, panic,
stress and aggression. My mind changed after I fell down the stairs some years
ago and I never found the old me back. kicking people to death has become
nearly normal in today's society, or shooting people for no reason as well.
It also became normal to insult others or abuse
persons in a public job has become one of the most normal things in life. The
word "respect" that everyone knows has become totally meaningless.
You may try it but it seems to be an impossible task to correct people their
behavior. People live in fear of "something might trigger them." And
the only way to pay for it is my life. It is scandalous.
I think everyone who reads this, has a fun moment in his life and can bring
forward something from his or her childhood. Moments from the highest classes
of elementry school that you were at camp and you were dating and later saw
that she was the cutest or ugliest girl or boy of the class. Children like my
daughter Danique, who is dancing to music of K3, slip into the thought that
they are playing outside going of the slide, and sleep under a blanket of
Winnie the Pooh.
Often I wish applicable to the number Glennis
Grace, that people could be that child again. Rather than the age, gaming or
the leisure. But the variation of thoughts that children have, never have to
worry and especially that they are having no real stress or feelings of anxiety
or other "common evils". No they rather looking on the bright side of
life.
Children are enjoying small things like a cup of
tea, a glass of lemonade or a delicious candy. They can enjoy nature, that
birds are singing, playing tag or hide and seek behind a thin tree where a
parent is actually too thick for it. Nowadays the life about of care and
concern. Take care of your immediate family, friends or other very important
people in your life. Take care of your family, wife and / or child (ren).
Of
course sometimes it's just not easy, and of course "sometimes"
something like that can take years. Life does not go hand in hand with everyday
joy, love and romance. Sometimes years go by illness, accident or "it's
not today" moment. Sometimes we have to say goodbye to people close to us
or someone we should support in his mind as the sun doesn’t shine, but you
rather see clouds, and that there are a lot of them that go past you.
Support people, help people or give people the help that they need. As relatives, friends or family grab each other's hand and go happily through this life. When we see children on the news or in the newspapers that carry a gun or tell them while playing tag their brother could be lost because he stepped on a mine, then I'm happy with my wife and daughters, so I doubly enjoy those little things that makes life in the Netherlands not that bad.
Because what can beat the thought of walking arm in arm on the beach, under
a sun that slowly goes down in the North Sea. My daughters running in front of
us finding one after the other shell, that looks like a win for their
collection! one family, one thought, one feeling to make a desirable family
complete. That is my wish...........
The Old Sailor,
