Dreams are the touchstones of our character.

- Henry David Thoreau

being a dreamer.

recently i've also been thinking a lot about what to do if i succesfully get my bachelor in january 2013. never know what can happen. but if yeaaaah then i've been dreaming about traveling for a period before going to athens deaflympics in the summer of 2013. this time as a tourist, and not as an athlete. i've had enouff of staying in da hotel n missing out social times with international people. ofc it was also amazing to be there as an athlete. but twice is enough. melbourne and taiwan is enough. now i want athens to be my first deaflympics as a tourist. want some time for greek islands and ouzooo.

yes, it is two years from now on till it's january 2013.

what am i dreaming of?

traveling for around 4-5 months. it depends on economy and which countries to go.

if someone of you also have the same dream, just let me know and probably we can travel together a little before separating for other countries on our dream list.

i have some countries in my mind. am exciting to make this dream come true someday.

it's good to start little by little. and i'll do it.

wish me luck. and i wish you luck with your dreams too.

‎"1/3 van je hersenen veroorzaken een rusteloze stroom van gedachten en waarnemingen, de rest sust en lijdt de chaos in goede banen. dat verklaart ons rusteloos verlangen naar rake momenten.

waarin alles ineens helder en duidelijk is. even maar. dan stort de algemene duisternis er zich weer over.... als het gebeurt dan weet je dat je er onafgebroken naar zoekt en verlangt. de sublieme momenten." -Kees Hin.

translated to english (via google, so don't expect perfection);

"1 / 3 of your brains cause a restless flow of thoughts and perceptions, the rest soothes and suffer the chaos on track. this explains our restless desire to rake moments. where everything seemed bright and clear. a minute. then collapsed overall there is darkness .... if it happens again then you know that you are constantly looking for and desire. the sublime moments. "

changed.

it's been 10 days since receiving the message that changed my life.
been at a really beautiful and yet very very emotional funeral last weekend.
10 days with pain and lots of reflections. remembering the memories again.

it's still unbelieveable. but we have to accept it. our life is in the hands of fate.
there's still things to do. so probably won't be visible this month. priorities has been changed.

but i'm looking forward to a new start of my life as we always have to look on the bright side of life.

already so many things to look forward ->

volley tournament, andré & benjamin's crazy birthday party, the visit of my 2 friends from washington d.c, ddu general assembly, christina & kristine's 25years birthday party, berlin trip with wonderful people and of course the springtime.

take care.

my loss.

4th february 2011 was the day i learned to know that my mother is gone.

it was an shocking experience but also a little relief.
my mother had been through so much in all her life and in recent years.
now you're free from all the pain.

i'll never forget you, mom and i'll always love you not matter what.
it is unbelievable that i won't be seeing you again.

rest in peace..

"everywhere i got

every smile i see
i know you are there
smilin back at me
dancin in moonlight
i know you are free
cuz i can see your star
shinin down on me"

- janet jackson "together again".

ciao.
