#72



"It isn't possible to love and to part. You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that poets are right: love is eternal."



On friday I received a wonderfull little pack from England with this book and a dvd full of music and yes, it's sunday and I'm still happy with that. My computer in every fifteen days looses a function and now I'm reaching the point where I can't download anything. Literally. Photos, videos, attachments, files, office documents... what a mess! So, when someone from the island remembers to share some music - and in a dvd fits a lot of music =) - we feel really good. It's like to receive the "all pack": the book in english and hours of good songs. Those two things and the image of my couch... it sounds so nice!

Yesterday I went to a friend's wedding and, in the middle of that party-and-hapiness-environment, I stood a little bit thoughtfull. It's a friend that I really thought that would never get married (at least formally, on that traditional wedding idea) and that makes my mind think in how people are always surprising us. At 2 a.m., when half of the guests had already gone out, I still was looking for her and thinking "She really got married". On their wedding rings ("Titanium rings" - as they said to everyone!!) is carved "We must never be apart", a little piece from a song lyric. And how I wish that they never get apart.

After a few weddings we start to think in which ones are those that are going to be the exception. The ones that will get through all problems, the ones that I'm going to look to them after 15 years and say to myself "Yes, they are still in love". Probabilities theories devastate my romantic expectations. And I don't like that.


Finally, how can a friend that is working at Dubai for about ten months can help us with our crazy lists?
Answer: This week the friend said that he's going to buy a motorbike when he comes back to Portugal. And I have now company for #49 =)
