Can you think of anything that you resent and are thankful for at the same time? If you don’t want to name it, you can just answer “yes”.

Yes. The fact I didn’t pass my finals the first time and went to this institution of adult education. I was very sad, and frustrated that my parents didn’t let me take a step down when the option was there. My friends all went studying, they went off to different parts of the country, and to different countries even, and I was still stuck in my last year of school. I felt like a downright failure. I could have been in my last year of this study, had I passed the first time. Had I stepped a level down the year before, I could’ve even been done with university already!

The other side of it is that I got a job where I could earn something, and where I made friends. I also made great friends in that adult education thing and had a very fun and easy year. Through those friends I made other friends as well, and I’m going to Budapest with 6 of them not this next Monday, but the one after that! I think some things are just meant to be. And when I finally started my education at the university of applied sciences 2 years back, I got into this class with great people, of which some have really become close friends too. And I’m actually one of the best students of my class, and it feels great to be able to say that now! I think some things are just meant to be.

Why  the life is soo complicated? 

Why there’s a complicated heart?

Why the problems are too complicated?

Because people want it that way

And heart complex because it has to pump blood

I honestly don’t know; but there is a great sense of satisfaction when you overcome the complications.

Is there?

How long after overcoming the complications does it come?

And why does it take so long for the tangles to be straightened?

If anyone wants to put their own to the side and sort out mine feel free.

Sometimes

How long after overcoming the complications does it come?

Depends on the complication

And why does it take so long for the tangles to be straightened?

Because your fingers are too big

I would don a sweater as I would be in the southern hemisphere and therefore it would be winter and quite chilly.

Do you believe age begins of 40? Or life begins at forty?

No. Age begins before you are even born. But if you mean old age, no. Old age begins whenever you want it to. I mean, look at Paul! a-hard-days-night-john-6

How do you Beatles? 

In the shower? On the road? Over headphones? From a record? In the morning? At night? While bashing along on your instrument of choice?

In the shower.

While mowing the lawn…loud through headphones.

In this car

While walking with the dog.

And any other time I want to.

The answer to all three questions: If it was easy, it would be boring.

In countless ways.

If life begins at 40, you’ve started 39 years too late.

I’d be pissed because I’d have to learn history all over again as well as a new language. Where did Columbus finally end up? Where did the Pilgrims land? Since some Pilgrims are my ancestors, where the Hell do I live and what language am I supposed to speak? Nope – not a happy camper would I be.

To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

On any alternate Earth, Columbo would obviously land on the shores of Vespucci in his battered old ship, and then make a nuisance of himself while solving that week’s murder.
