The Polar Express-2

Image
A very soft song  from Aphex Twin   for the beginning. 26/09/20 Vedersoe/Denmark 04.10.20 As you can see, Denmark is mostly cloudy. This weather was not usual for me until I started to live here. Coming from a Mediterranean country (moreover from the West!), I sometimes miss the sunshine. I think I will get used to it in time.  These days, I fully feel the autumn; fallen leaves, mizzling rain, circulating warm wind around, and Halloween time coming soon... Nature is yawning and completing the last preparations to sleep. Denmark is a super silent country, let's say ''peaceful'' -if you can feel it this way-. I guess it will be more silent in wintertime. People will spend their time at home with their families. Sounds pretty. :) Maybe one day, I will be able to do so in Denmark too. Who knows?.. It is a totally cosy portrait for me. Come to mention cosy, I would like to talk about ''hygge''. It is the most popular habit in Denmark culture. Danes love i...

That's What People Say

3/9/20 Vorupoer/Denmark A song   from  Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds People always say that “People hurt”, “People are bad, rude and unreliable (and more)”. But as far as I see, people saying this can do it without any hesitation when it's their turn. Is this revenge??!  We will probably be all dead in 60 years and while we are getting older, from time to time we will feel like a stranger in this world because time will grab our beloved ones from us. A nd this feeling will give us a bitter grief. When we look from this perspective, there is no  meaning to wasting life. Of course, wasting life has different meanings for each person. Then, what is my meaning? It is a big question and probably I cannot answer it properly.  Anyway, I can still try... T his result has been created by too many reasons coming together, no doubt about it, but I don't want to get lost in details.  When you have a partner, a wife, or a husband who loves you dearly, to cheat this pers...

About Patience

Image
Here is a song from Hümeyra for the be ginning.   Not to rush about love has been perfectly expressed in her words: ''Bir köşede durup dinlenir gibi acelesiz ve rahat sevmeyi N asıl anlatsam?''     eng.   How can I best explain to love somebody in a leisurely and undisturbed mode as if  you are resting in some corner?   After so many years I am learning to be patient about lots of things. Having gone through countless events, I became a more mature and patient person. There should be a meaning to bitter experiences, shouldn’t there? My experiences taught me to wait -if you can- because generally this process brings valuable and much better results than your expectations. There is something magical in this. I said generally, because cosmic system doesn't always work in a good way :). Still, at least trying to be resilient and patient, when bad things happen or wait for something good to happen, is a wise attitude. It makes you a contender and ...

The Polar Express-1

25/08/2020    Skive/Denmark    22.08 My first week in Denmark is almost finished, and I am so happy to be here. I am (contrary to   the   song ) 1,676 miles away   from home. I keep this sentence in my mind, it sounds special to me: ''Home is where you make it''. Totally true!.. In my opinion, starting to create a life from scratch is something more powerful and important for one's personal development. In the following sections, I am going to tell you why I think like this. In the book, which I am currently reading,  Women  Who Run With the Wolves ,  the writer tells about the feeling of belonging somewhere in the sixth chapter and she gives an advice about a necessity: Try to explore new places to feel that you belonged there. That's why I am here... To feel free, resilient and contented. Actually, all I want is self-discovery and self-fulfillment.  25.08 Another day... W hile it's raining,  I am current...

Yolculuk Anıları-2

Image
Tarihsiz kalmış bir not. Eşlik etsin diye b ir güzel müzik bırakıyorum. .. Freiburg İstasyonu'na sabaha karşı 4 buçukta ulaştım. Uzun bir yolculuğun ardından soğuk bir Almanya sabahı karşılamıştı beni ve beklemem gereken 5 saat vardı. Gelecek trenle bir yıldır gitmeyi istediğim çiftliğe nihayet kavuşacaktım. Tüm Almanya maceramın ruhumda yarattığı yorgunluğu din-len-direcek bir fırsattı. Öyle görüyordum. Bir çeşit inziva haftası olacak; doğa, farklı insanlar, çiftlik hayatı bana iyi gelecekti. Umut ettiğim buydu. Zihnimde tüm bu düşüncelerle yarı uykulu, istasyonda beklemeye başladım. Öyle yorgundum ki, trene kadarki vaktimi Freiburg'u gezerek değerlendirmeye hiç niyetim yoktu. İstasyonda volta atmaya başladım; çevre civarı geziyor, biraz kestirmek için uygun bir yer arıyordum. İstasyonun iç kısmındaki bekleme koltuklarından birinde bir süre uyumuşum. Ardından bir iki, cafeler açılmaya başladı. Ben de birine girip bir kahve aldım -kahve neredeyse her zaman, neredeyse h...
