Goede vaart, Adieu


Paps, het is goed zo.
Ik zal je ontzettend missen, maar ben ook onbeschrijflijk blij met de laatste paar dagen die we met elkaar hebben gehad. Ik houd van je.
Goede vaart.

Leontine

Translation:
Your death did not come sudden, but bit by bit each day
All of the bits accompanied by a tear and by a smile
You said "I still want to, but my body is so tired"
And then, still so unexpected, the last bit found its way.

Tu n'es pas parti subitement, mais un petit peu chaque jour
Chaque peu accompagné d'une larme et d'un sourire
Tu as dit "Je veux toujours, mais mon corps est tellement fatigué"
Et puis, tout à fait inattendue, le dernier petit peu t'a trouvé.

Together we're invincible

Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be alright

'Cause there's no one
Like you in the universe

Don't be afraid
What your mind consumes
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe

And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

During the struggle, they will pull us down
But please, please, let's use this chance to turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

Do it on your own
It makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be

And whatever they say
Your soul's unbreakable

During the struggle, they will pull us down
But please, please, let's use this chance to turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible, together we're invincible

During the struggle, they will pull us down
But please, please, let's use this chance to turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible, together we're invincible

There is one constant in life: everything changes.
There is one certainty in life: there are no certainties.
There is one thing certain when you are born: you will die.

Paradoxes? Perhaps.
Truths? Yes.



It may not be fair, but who ever said that life is fair?
It's life...

questions

Why oh why is it so easy to stand up for someone else, but so hard to stand up for yourself?

Why is it so easy to give advice to others, but so hard to follow that same advice yourself?

Why is it so easy to see the paths that others could follow, but impossible to find your own?

Why? Why not?

Does anyone know?
