free as a bird

So here I am, still in the Dolomites. It has been quite a nice stay so far but I start to get bored! I am wondering what to do: maybe travel somewhere nearby, like Trento or Treviso and then come back here next week. I could also come back to Mantova but ahhh...don't really want to!

I almost never talk about my working life since I've started my...holidays...hehehehhee...but I am still writing for the paper and doing some recruiting work via the Internet. I also think I never mentioned that I am writing a book....it is very green yet, but I have wrote a few stories and as I soon as I have the courage I will post some in here. It is all about travel and the feelings that can develop between people whilst travelling. I am enjoying a lot, yea, my head is flying 90% of the time so that means I also get inspired to write very often! :)) Reading and writing are my main activities here, it stops me from getting insane.



I am very free, but many times I get to the point where I don't know what to do with all this freedom. It sounds silly but it gets a bit overwhelming. Wander around the mountains?  Travel somewhere else? Stay here? Go back to Mantova? Do nothing? Get completely crazy and just hop on a train with no destination?

For some people, I guess it is good to have a routine, a stable lifestyle you can stick to. Obligations, things you have to do. Preferably, lots. Lots of things to get busy with.

In Italy I still got a few things to do, mostly related to my job, but I do them in my own pace...I don't have a routine or stability, and I have to be here but at the same time its is like, tomorrow I will be gone...

I need some stimulation, some incentive, some pressure. Dynamism, not relaxation. I have actually had enough relaxation. Now I am restless.

Two Step

Say, my love, I came to you
With best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what
I’m seeking
Love, you drive me to distraction

Hey my love do you believe that we
Might last a thousand years
Or more if not for this?
Our flesh and blood it ties
You and me right up
Tie me down

Celebrate we will
Because life is short but sweet for certain
We’re climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue,
These things we cannot change

Hey, my love, you came to me like
Wine comes to this mouth
Grown tired of water all the time
You quench my heart and you
Quench my mind

Celebrate we will
Because life is short but sweet for certain
We’re climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue,
The things we cannot

Celebrate, you and me, climbing
Two by two, to be sure
These days continue, things we cannot change

Oh, my love, I came to you
With best intentions
You laid down and gave to me just what
I’m seeking

Celebrate we will
Because life is short but sweet for certain
We’re climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue,
Things we cannot change...

I am waiting to hear something, but the other end is still silent.
