Best things in life are…

Sunday, April 17th, 2005

..free… you might have suspected me to say that when you read the headline, didn’t you? I think I got you. But the sad side is: nothing is really free.perhaps theres something we did for getting something we want any time we get something. Sometimes I have that feeling. But thats not what I wanted to talk about.

Its a call to everyone to whom it matters how people feel. Its a call to save their souls, the lost ones, the sad ones, the lonely ones and so on. I suspect our society to overlook most problems of other people on purpose and after that complain about the consequences. If we all would just care a bit more about those people around us, there were so many smiles more in this world…. but never mind. Best things in life are gone because noone cares… but we can still get them back!

In those times, when I am thinking a lot about my friends and fellows, I realize, that I’ve gotten more dependant on some people than I thought. The person, I depend on most once said to me “If you want me to give a good advice to you, don’t get too close to people, cause this might hurt you and them more than you might want!”. Actually she was right, but sometime it seems like one has to be hurt to see, that one is still living and theres still life! Even though its very ironic, that I was depending on her more than she might have realized in that monent already, when she told me so.

I believe there is some kind of people, which I call usually “Seelenmensch” (“Human with a soul” translated literally). Those people are easily hurt and broken, if life judges them wrong. Sometimes I think I am one of those, too and sometimes again, I think it can be much worse. I feel sad when I recall that it are always the good ones to be hurt and broken. It are always those who can’t beare more than they already carry and those who can’t let go of their old precious feelings. Those who know me a bit longer might have notices that I am much like that, too. I am unable to let go. This is what keeps me from advancing and what keeps me from being happy, but it also keeps me alive. I often realize that I am not alone with that feelings, and even if it might hurt me to be like that, I am happy I am, because this helps me to help others.

Have a good night and wake up with a happy and confident face :)

Saying goodbye

Sunday, April 17th, 2005

For those who carefully read the last things I wrote, there’ll be no difficulties in understanding what I’ll be writing now. Some things change very quick hand hasty and so I now know when the day approaches, that i fear most. Theres still time I have to manage some things, but, as i said to a good friend of mine, “whats a year besides the fear of loosing someone important”. There are several thoughts on my mind, about leaving the country after studium and work in a country far away. I’ve already started learning their scripture and language will follow very soon.
Theres one thing on my mind that keeps me living right now and makes me willing to survive. You can only reach wour aims, if you start walking. Just waiting won’t get you anywhere. So I’m still walking, if i stumble, it will all be over.

Apart from that, perhaps, i’m currently learning to say “no”. Its just a question of being rude, thats not very familiar to me. But some people are just consider help as a certain thing. But be sure, I won’t start being ignorant, but perhaps just a bit more certain about my freetime.

Today I’m creating Katakana vowel signs and stick them all over my place. Its easyer to learn the meanings of those unfamiliar signs, if you get familiar to them. Its a bit difficult and I wish i had started earlier with that, but I consider it just as a matter of keeping moving ;) .

When talking about moving, there are some more things on my mind. Plans about moving away have grown a bit in the last hours. Perhaps, today, a friend of mine is coming along with a form to fill out for getting a flat. This matches the topic again, because its saying goodbye (I’m accidently typing “goodbyte” all the time, so i NEED A VACATION!) to my old surroundings. Everyday, if I do a new design installation in my room, hanging some pictures on the wall or stuff like that its just a strange feeling that asks me “Does this still make sense? You’re moving away soon! Don’t overdo it with making this place feel comfortable!”. Its perhaps redicolous, but a bit scary, too. If I was younger, everytime, I was picturing myself in the furure, for example in a job or somethig, it was my room or another familiar place I saw myself in. Its strange that we humans are so terribly unflexible, like sticking in our old places!

But let this be enough talk for today!

Sorry for being late.

Friday, April 15th, 2005

These days, I’m heavily overloaded with things, so excuse that I’ve not written anything since over a week! Its likely to be like that when I promise to do something regulary, I’ll totaly mess up everything. I’m not the kind of guy, who likes regularity. Sad story though.

But I’m not only late with the blog, I’m late with everything, especially with getting some things clear with myself. Some things are still on my mind, like saying goodbye to the person I like most in this screwed up life. I’m not even sure if i have to, but things are getting worse in my head even if I think of having to. Its the old story with love and not getting it, everyone experieces somtimes in life. But I’m maybe attracting this feelings a bit. It ends up there everytime I fall in love. Its likely to believe, that I might have gotten experience with handling those situations, but its a fault to think that you can be experienced in dealing with love. Its like everytime you get here again its a different situation, but the same feeling, nowhere to go, nothing to do but just suffer. Its over a year now i’m in this state and I don’t know how to get out of here. So you see, I’m very late.

Work currently does 3 things to me: First one, keeping me active and apart from being depressed. Second one, keeping me from meeting new people, cause the customers are all the same, not very kind and not someone you want to meet regulary. Third one: prooving me, being late. Its like I delay every job I get at minimum a day. I dont know how long my chef’s will watch that. Its a bit difficult. I’m so tired of these things and I’m feeling a bit depressed about the fact, that I cant advance in social meanings, but still step on the same place as before because of this job. I’m working 12:00 to 21:00 there and its Monday to Friday. On the weekends people still bother me with computer things and I have no more time for the things important to me, whis is my friends and even the thing we talked about before, called love and not getting it… not mentioned my own situation and organisation of life! Do you believe me that its quite depressing for me to realize that some people take my work as just natural, even if I show up private at a customer after 22:00 to fix his broken PC or such because he has some MAJOR IMPORTANT work to do (like watching pr0n pictures or whatever) and I get NOTHING in return?! Its not the money i’m after, its a warm word like “Thank you that you’re doing that.” or “Can i do something in return?”. People don’t look after each other that much. THATS what makes me sad. Its sad, too that i’m only “the guy who fixes computers” to most people I know. Why!? I think I’m so much more than that! If you want, get to know me and I’ll try to proove you. But please be patient, because i’m hurt by the fact I have to talk about computers all the day… so it might take a while till I get used to you.

The last thing I’m late with is saying I’m sorry to my friends, who are in a hard time right now. Its not like I’m a guy who puts work before friends… its just my disability to say “no” if someone asks me a favour (Caro, if you might read that, its not you I talk about here, if you have problems with your PC or anything else, whatever it is, please feel free to ask me at any time.). Time will pass by and I’ll be there for you. I’m really sorry, and i’ll work on that.
I’m late with saing thank you, too, so I’m triing to put it this way: Thank You, all the people who support me, my good friends, you are keeping me alive right now with your presence and with showing me that you are there. I hope you’ll always be (i’m crying right now, sorry for that). Please don’t leave, cause you’re everything left for me.

I promise, i’ll change! Till then
