The birds they sang
at the break of day
Start again
I heard them say
Don't dwell on what
has passed away
or what is yet to be.

Ah the wars they will
be fought again
The holy dove
She will be caught again
bought and sold
and bought again
the dove is never free.

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.

We asked for signs
the signs were sent:
the birth betrayed
the marriage spent
Yeah the widowhood
of every government --
signs for all to see.

I can't run no more
with that lawless crowd
while the killers in high places
say their prayers out loud.
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
a thundercloud
and they're going to hear from me.

Ring the bells that still can ring ...

You can add up the parts
but you won't have the sum
You can strike up the march,
there is no drum
Every heart, every heart
to love will come
but like a refugee.

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
That's how the light gets in.
That's how the light gets in.

Anthem, Leonard Cohen

THe man with the velvety voice ... ohh la la . " Repent ....... charlie Manson ....gimme gimme ...I've seen the future it is murder " lol sometimes he paints a bleak picture , but it doesn't matter , cos you wonder what he meant !

Then all of a sudden he puts his seductive voice on and you forget all the black and bleak stuff.

All of a sudden you are in the land of miracles , empathy and soul .. compassion and mysterious allusions .
LOve it !

Isn't it mardi gras tod ay ? Fettisdag in Swedish ? Pancake day ?

This must be the beginning of Lent. Have fun now , as for 40 days ye have to absain from all pleasurable things. Snippets I remember from C of E primary school . The things I remember . Yep .. that bottle of wine will have to be opened , tonight !

After all Desperate Housewives is on .. AND .. Gilmore Girls. If I had a " bag- in - box " as it's called here , I wouldn't hesitate , but I crack open a bottle of red now , I'll have to have some tomorrow too.

Wine is fattening too , isn't it ? All sugar ? hmmmm

If you don't know where you are going,
any road will get you there.
-- Lewis Carroll

I like this . All roads lead to Rome anyway .

"What a distressing contrast there is
between the radiant intelligence of the child
and the feeble mentality of the average adult."
-- Sigmund Freud

work keeps me busy sometimes and away from blogging. Such is life. But I complain not , as things are flowing nicely.

Had to go down to the library to use their printer as mine is still , sadly , still Kaput or needs a new cartridge. I'm not sure , because before it stopped printing it covered pages with blank ink. Naughty . Very naughty.

Made an appointment to have my hair cut tomorrow . Hope it's an auspicious day for haircuts. I wonder what cutting hair by the phases of the moon calender says. Can't find it.The moon is still waning. Hmmmm

Session with new client worked well. She was so much happier this time.

Yet again she'd had to wait outside the outside door as she couldn't get the code to work ! This happened last time too. Someone told her that the code had been changed that very day ( flippin lie ) and then let her in. Well , it hadn't and armed with the correct code she still couldn't get the door to open. Today we both went down to try - and it worked. Will be interesting to see if she can get it to work next time .

Intrrducing the book - or Norwegian computer course .
