Today a Jim Croce song came to my mind as I walked across the village and thought about Sveta, Boza, my family in America and the Russian Village…
Time in a Bottle; It was 1973 and when young, we live forever in our minds and Jim Croce died in a plane crash. Jim Croce was most likely my most favorite song writer I have ever known and his death kinda bothered me back in those days. His death still does hang with me, for his songs are timeless and powerful. At least to me they were…
“Time In A Bottle”
The first thing that I’d like to do
Is to save every day till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I’d save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with youBut there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I’ve looked around enough to know
That you’re the one I want to go through time withIf I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty, except for the memory of how
They were answered by you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I’ve looked around enough to know
That you’re the one I want to go through time with
Sometimes we have to make decisions that not everyone will like and I have had to choose between Russia, Sveta and Boza against the U.S. and my family that acts like 95% of all Americans…
How could you pass up the most wonderful girl in the world, even if it was just a few short years, it is all worth giving up the past…
For I have read Osho and have his writings, much of what he says is so true and I believe strongly in what he talks as facts about women…
The Woman Should Be Given Every Freedom;
“If all over the world the woman is allowed freedom to grow to her potential, there will be many, many women enlightened; many, many women mystics, poets, painters. And they will enhance not only the woman’s part of the world – because the world is one – they will enhance the whole world. They will give man also new dimensions because their ways of seeing things are different. Man looks at things in one way; the woman looks from a different perspective. Life will become richer.
“It is for the betterment of both man and woman, that the woman should be given every freedom and equal opportunity for her individuality. Then there will be a sense of humor. And the woman can laugh more gracefully than man, she has every potential for it – but it is repressed, condemned, criticized. She has lived a life of such misery that you cannot hope that she will show some sense of humor.
“But the day is not far away…then the whole earth will be full of laughter. Instead of talks about war, instead of politicians giving speeches all around the world, instead of the sermons of stupid priests who know nothing, it will be far better that every man and every woman is able to see the hilarious side of life and to enjoy it.”
Osho, The New Dawn, Talk #31
It would be nice to see the above quote to come true, for that is how my life is with Sveta. Now we need to let the world be full of Sveta’s…
Today I was thinking about; Immortality and the wish to have more time…
