I skipped from posting an interesting "anger management" fact of life ....will keep it as one of my next posts, as seem to be inappropriate to publish it at the beginning of the so-called "Woman's month" :)
For those of you who do not know, in Romania we celebrate woman's day on 8 March, so the week of 1-8 March is full of presents, flowers and lucky -charmes called "Martisoare" which men give to women as a sign of appreciation .
The pictures attached are from my mother-in-law garden,I've took them a few weeks back, these are "Ghiocei" , the first flowers of the year , whenever they appear you will know spring is near :)
And for this wonderful day of spring,let's hear a nice song :
Well well.....back after a month of silence. :) with fresh ideas and things to share.
Was really really busy with work lately but I must admit we should live a little besides work too.
So, here it goes, a new year, we all have new hopes and new wishes.I hope all of them will come true for everyone.
In the last week i have been followed closely the evolution of my freesias and i have some really nice pictures I am anxious to share with you all . Yes, freesias in the middle of the winter :) I do not know where they were brought actually but I am really glad to have them .
Perfect for the first post this year, next song is a great bunch of positive feelings and special experiences.
Yes ..it is Christmas :) Like every year, everyone is busy buying lots of gifts for all the dear ones, singing carols, baking cookies and traditional food...well...it is a wonderful period, and most of all....we have snow :)
Hope and dreams....these are all we got when things go rough between day and night, when sun seems to fade away even if we see it more bright then ever, when we cannot see the moon even if it is right in front of us . Because life was not made to be fare, to be nice or easy...life was made to teach us something and give us all a purpose...we are all on this planet with a well defined aim.
We always hope for better and wish to succeed, to be the best, to climb the highest steps....well....
Finally December, my favorite month .Some say it may be because of the holidays, some because of the sence you get when wondering around the street ,seeing lots and lots of sparkling lights and decorated trees.
I say this because , it is only 3rd December and I am allready so Happy :)
Yes, this must be it. Happiness has different formes and shapes, you may be happy from small or big reasons , you may seek happiness where you never thought before and also find it everywhere when you least expect. I found the hapiness this week since the first hour of this morning :)
As many people do not know where to search for happiness, some have too much and cannot apreciate the important things in life. Yeah, back to the Utopia of life :) Neverending circle.
Still waiting for the snow, but the holiday spirit is allready here.Listening to Lana Del Rey - Serial Killer , and drinking a hot chocolate .... and the happiness ? well....it is here... cannot ask for more right now
It's been a while since my last post ... it is true.
Well, I have been very busy with work and Home improvements ... But because I am really happy today that my new dressing closet has arrived :) , will share with you some of my Autumn thoughts.
Autumn is actually the beginning of the end ....of the summer of cource. It gets colder and colder, trees loose their leaves, everything is chaotic. I love this season for its colors, yellow and red colors everywhere.Some people get depressed during autumn because of the changes . I actually do not have time to think anymore :) I belive there is something that is sucking up all my thoughts lately.... which is not a bad thing, but anyway...this weather takes my thoughts at a poem I wrote last year, starting like this :
"A flight above the world to see,
Beyond my biggest fears to be
I stay down...on my knees...and pray
To never let you go away"
It is actually my favorite poem I wrote so far... with many verses , a nice romance in the shadows as some may say called "Just Strangers " . But as I had good critics for it and because it is so important for me , I cannot share it on blogger :)
Anyway, holiday season is near :) I heard this sentence more that 10 times this week.But I am anxious for that great period to come.
Bellow you have a nice song remembering of the summer, "Vara Rece" ("Cold Summer").Any season may be, good thoughts should always follow us.
We sometimes feel the past among our present, we don't want it, but we cope with it, we have to let go to be able to move on, but we cannot .It is like the air, being indispensable,everything hurts without it. I guess maturity means sometimes to learn how to deal with life without letting go of the past completely, considering it part of what made us become who we are today.No matter how bad, or good, or how many regrets there are, it was there and it will always remain somewhere deep in the history of our existence.
Tonight I am sad...and besides this, I am sick, I have fever and do not feel well...but this is life, all the bad things come together to make us feel worst. And all in between, we need to keep the head up and smile.Life will be better tomorrow.

Bellow you have one of my favorite songs of all times.
When I was 7 years old I received for my birthday a "Queen Greatest Hits" Audio tape from my parents.....and I have been a fan ever since, so the bellow song will always in my heart, because I love it for almost 20 years now, and I am not sure how, but anything I do in life, I always find myself in these lyrics:
After a nice day spent outside, walking in the park ,as it would have been a pitty to waste it lying in bed all day when there were 23 Degrees Celsius outside , I decided to prepare a great recipe that reminds me of my childhood ... "Knedle" as it is called in my home town.
I came across a very nice movie a few days ago , and the following phrase got stuck in my mind:
"Things will be alright in the end, and if they are not alright yet, then it is not the end"
It is a true fact in all possible ways, and we cannot argue about this. I have no statement against it, and yet, I am wondering....how can things be right in the end , having no exceptions.....It is like wanting something that you know it is less than 1% chance you will ever achieve it, and yet....believing that things will be alright will bring a different end to it than it is already planned? I got confused, because leaving my optimism behind, we are realistic persons...and some things cannot be achieved, it is impossible, no matter how bad we want....(yes, there goes my optimism). There comes a time when we wake up from the dream and realize that... if the statement is completely true, then we will have no end to some very important facts in our life.
But yet, beyond this, I remember a dear friend that said something like this : "trust God if you don't trust yourself and you will succeed" (I do not remember exactly all the words in the phrase, but aprox)
Well, I guess he was right, I think we are debating too much about hypothetical quotes; because in the end, things will be as they have to be.... yes, we want things, we pray for things to be, to happen, sometimes they do, sometimes they don't...it is not the end of the world. We should stick to the faith....this is the only way to be able to say "Things will be alright in the end"
Leaving the "Fall Astenia" thoughts behind, I am sure you're all excited as the weekend just started. Looking forward to the recipe I will prepare and post this Sunday :) It will be a premiere ;)
Just a normal Sunday afternoon,too bad it is raining a lot, but it is the middle of October so, we just have to get used to this. So, I've put on my glasses and decided to share with you all a small part of the experience I had this weekend with the Indian Festival in Bucharest (IV edition).
The post today should have been about „Chocolate mousse”, a
really easy and tasty recipe I’ve done today. Easy to do but I guess you can
find the recipe all over the internet in different sizes or shapes, so, instead
posting the „Sunday’s recipe” I started
to wonder about myself . When do we still have time to contemplate over us alone when
this life is so crazy and the days pass so fast, we’re too busy with work and other
daily problems that we sometimes forget about us....as entities.
...you were born ...and start growing up, you are happy because you do not know the difficulties of life yet, you go to school and make friends, later you graduate an important university , yet you have more friends who are always there for you ,you have a great family who supports you, you meet a nice woman/men always ready to give anything for you , you get married , you buy a nice house , you drive a fancy car, you have a great job,you become the best in your field, you have money,you have enough time to spend with friends, you have fame, some envy you for what you are, maybe you are very talented and you show it to everyone, you have the posibility to see the whole world ,you have/can have kids and live a happy life... you can be whatever you want and whenever you want ....and yet....there is that something....that you really want,from the bottom of your heart... that you would give anything you have in the present to get it, but nobody understands you, because you have a free spirit, and think different than others; because something needs to change and yet you have no ideea how to achieve more...maybe your aspirations are too high ...what is important in life? having it all? what if being happy means something else, go to an island, live close to the nature, learn to swim...meet new people, learn new things, return to the basics...what if things were different....why does this seem impossible sometimes and yet....how come everytime we have something we really want, life gives us new opportunities and ,like always, we want more and more.
The answer is...follow your heart. Think about what you want and how you can achieve it without hurting the ones around you. Be free but in a carefull way. Some cross the line to be happy, and they succeed, some don't , as they care more about others that they are putting themselves on the second place,wodering for the rest of their lives "what if..."
True is, this is the utopia of life, it is a round circle, neverending story, you want something, you have it, and then you want more, because you know you can , because you are strong and because you deserve it.
The song bellow doesn't have anything to do with the utopia of life :) but I remembered it this week, so I am sharing it with you all as it has a nice message:
