We lose
Yet we want to spare the feelings of those we love
Don’t cry
We’ve all lied
But there is always room for forgiveness my friend
So don’t treat me bad just be glad I am strong
I know where I belong
And soon you will see we are blessed and complete
There’s a place here for you with me
Shine
You’re fine
See I [...]

My post on Yoon Mi Rae probably gets the most hits on this blog (which is great, since it means more and more people are searching her out :)). I thought I’d post up a translation of the lyrics of 잊었니 (Did you forget) for anyone looking out for it. Its pretty much a tearful, sorrowful, break-up [...]

I have no words to describe my disgust, sadness, and anger. What can you say about such a cruel, inhumane, horrible act? Except that it is shameful and absolutely terrifying that the bastards who did this are part of the human race. Is my blood really the same [...]

perfect world.
[Arco]
sorry I didn’t like your point of view
didn’t mean to upset you or hurt you
find it hard to tell those sweet little lies
always finding fault when i could compromise
i just want a perfect world
sorry i don’t see life the way you do
if i could i’d be just the same as you
every day parade [...]

Sometimes life just doesn’t go your way. Or it feels that way…all the time. Sometimes its more blows that you can take, or more blows that you’re anticipating. You’re scared of whats around the corner. What’ll it be next. What’ll bring you down for another long stretch. What’ll finally be the last straw.
I’m negative, miserable, frightened, bitter, [...]

As I often do, especially each time I come to this blog (see quote under title), I was thinking about one of my favorite songs: Slipping through your fingers, by the British-Indo band Trickbaby. In America, Trickbaby has probably not been heard of (a big loss, in my opinion, and drives me crazy because I [...]

Kabhi Yun Bhi To Ho….

Yeh Baadal Aisa Toot Ke Barse,

Kabhi Yun Bhi To Ho….
Tanhayee Ho Dil Ho, Boonden Ho, Barsaat Ho,
Aur Tum Aao….
Kabhi Yun Bhi To Ho….
Dariya Ka Sahil Ho, Poore Chand Ki Raat [...]

So I am sufficiently satisfied with my PS right now (emphasis on sufficiently, I could never, ever be completely satisfied in a billion years), to take it a little easy on myself (emphasis on little, the 31st is too close). Easy as in I thought I’d hover on to my blog and write something nice [...]

To my incredible, amazing mother.
To all my aunts who have nurtured me and cared for me at different points of my life.
To my late grandmother, who I miss so very much today. I love you Nani.
To all the mothers, and mother-like men and women of the world
Thank you for everything. This song, by [...]
