'Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you that YOU can't keep loving ME with half of YOUR heart.'

seems like heaven ain't far away...

Não teve, e nem vai ter, licão maior nessa viagem: nada é perfeito, mas tudo pode ser incrível AINDA ASSIM. Muitas coisas aqui não têm sido fáceis... convivência, aprendizado, cultura, adaptação... mas tudo é incrivelmente bom!
Eu realmente tô considerando cada um que cruza meu caminho como professor. E, guess what?!, me descubro como professora também. Ensinando coisas que eu nem sabia que sabia, apenas sendo quem eu sou e deixando isso transparecer! O melhor é ver o sentimento de gratidão das pessoas, pessoas que nem sabem se comunicar direito nessa língua, mas tentam e conseguem me deixar FELIZ!
Realizei demais... quero parar de procurar a perfeição. O que a gente precisa é ver além... e seguir sendo o que somos. Sempre. Melhor solução. MELHOR SENSAÇÃO. EVER!

no other way...

When your mind is a mess, so is mine
I cant sleep
Cause it hurts when I think
My thoughts aren't at peace
With the plans that we make, chances we take
They're not yours and not mine
There's waves that can break
All the words that we said and the words that we mean
Words can fall short, can't see the unseen
Cause the world is awake, for somebody's sake,
Now, please close your eyes, woman
Please get some sleep

And know that if I knew,
knew all the answers I would not hold them from you'd
Know all of the things that i'd know
We told each other
There is no other way.

Well, too much silence can be misleading
You're drifting I can hear it in the way that your breathing
We don't really need to find reason
Cause out the same door that it came well it's leaving, it's leaving
Leaving like a day that's done and part of a season
Resolve is just a concept that's as dead as the leaves
But at least we can sleep, it's all that we need
When we wake we will find
Our minds will be free to go to sleep.

- Jack Johnson

Só esse lugar mesmo, pra me deixar tão em paz quando eu tenho tanta coisa pra pensar... pra ponderar.

'I'M A NEW SOUL
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take.'

'Well my heart, it doesn't beat, it doesn't beat the way it used to
And my eyes, they don't see you no more
And my lips, they don't kiss, they don't kiss the way they used to
And my eyes don't recognize you no more

For reasons unknown'

(the killers)

"Ver e sentir as coisas como elas são: passageiras."

... after.

Sit down, give me your hand
I'm gonna tell you the future
I see you, living happily
With somebody who really suits ya
Someone like me

Stand still
Breath in
Are you listening?

You don't know
Somebody's aching
Keeping it all in
Somebody won't let go
Of his heart but the truth is
It's painless
Letting your love show

Break down. Give me some time
I don't want the fear to confuse ya
Right now, it's so wrong
But maybe it's all in the future with
Someone like you
