Fillippa Berg Goes to India
Fillippa Berg is a Swedish blogger. Here is a blog revue that I did of her blog previously.
I guess she and her friend took a trip to India.
All photos are from her blog.
Enjoy!
A crazy night
I had to memorialize this immortal night.
Well, feeling rock bottom, I somehow miraculously forced myself out of the house and to a saturday night meetup. It was an 80s and 90s dance party. I thought only, Burns would tell me to do this… he would approve.
I forced myself to go, scared though I was. I thought I can always just leave immediately if it is lame. I have money to spare—...
Vortongo
BB: What made you want to be an author?
PT: I think it was probably the Narnia books that set me off. When I was very small, I told my classmates I was writing a book about a magical land called Vortongo. I think I wrote a few sentences and drew a unicorn. I dare say I had a pop at doing the map that would go inside the front cover.
Then another boy casually informed us that he was writing a...

I found this poem called:
“Upon discovering my entire solution to the attainment of immortality erased from the blackboard except for the word save”
ha. this is exactly how i feel. just change blackboard and save to computer and ctrl s.
I also feel like the guy in avatar, at the moment he is brought back to reality, returning from his awesome life with the NAVI people to that tank...
Poem for Fanny, his wife, by Robert Louis...
My Wife
by Robert Louis Stevenson Trusty, dusky, vivid, true,
With eyes of gold and bramble-dew,
Steel-true and blade-straight,
The great artificer
Made my mate.
Honour, anger, valour, fire;
A love that life could never tire,
Death quench or evil stir,
The mighty master
Gave to her.
Teacher, tender, comrade, wife,
A fellow-farer true through life,
Heart-whole and soul-free...
this blog was once a love poem
This Was Once a Love Poem by Jane Hirshfield This was once a love poem,
before its haunches thickened, its breath grew short,
before it found itself sitting,
perplexed and a little embarrassed,
on the fender of a parked car,
while many people passed by without turning their heads.
It remembers itself dressing as if for a great engagement.
It remembers choosing these shoes,
this scarf or...
Jack and Kate
The god abandons Antony When suddenly, at midnight, you hear an invisible procession going by with exquisite music, voices, don’t mourn your luck that’s failing now, work gone wrong, your plans all proving deceptive—don’t mourn them uselessly. As one long prepared, and graced with courage, say goodbye to her, the Alexandria that is leaving. Above all, don’t fool yourself, don’t say it...
come find me!
love of my life, come find me!!

Make You Feel My Love by Bob Dylan
When the rain is blowin’ in your face And the whole world is on your case I could offer you a warm embrace To make you feel my love. When the evening shadows and the stars appear And there is no one there to dry your tears I could hold you for a million years To make you feel my love. I know you haven’t made your mind up yet But I would...

Last Night As I Was Sleeping by Antonio Machado
Last night as I was sleeping, I dreamt—marvelous error!— that a spring was breaking out in my heart. I said: Along which secret aqueduct, Oh water, are you coming to me, water of a new life that I have never drunk? Last night as I was sleeping, I dreamt—marvelous error!— that I had a beehive here inside my heart. And the golden bees were making...

A Dangerous Fall, The nature of Fear, and a trip...
Today I took a “spill”.
Tom was helping me carry my christmas tree down the small steep slippery stairwell in my old apartment building. And I somehow slipped and fell. That was crazy.
It is almost a blur now, but I remember how while I was falling, things were moving in slo-mo. I knew that this was going to be the dangerous kind of fall, but I was quite calm. I don’t know...
Happy Beautiful Spring Birthday to me
A vegetarian shoe company
If I had a shoe company.
We would sell shoes like this:

and
bags like this

And we would have our own factory in America. So that everything could be made in one week. and it could be the first totally vegetarian shoe and bag factory.

you can’t help smiling seeing this. this pic of my bro was sent to me in an email titled “joy” from my mom. I can only wonder what he was doing in this photo. Looks like it was starting to snow.
