SO SAID (3)

Music is music.

Dino, Albanian musician in Ljubjlana: “I am a shepherd of Albanian music.“

Willem, shepherd in Ghent: “My sheepdog only understands Albanian commands.“

In music there are many artists (1)
Django Reinhardt & Stéphane Grappelli (1939)

Why people fail to debate (old skool)
“The water was too deep. The mountain too high. The desert too hot. The bridge too far.”

Why people fail to debate (update)
“I had no network. My battery was only 5%. My GPS found no satellites. Don’t you have WhatsApp then?”

What the hell is the use of wasps?
From mosquitoes?
Or from human beings?

This bar closes on Saturday evening, really?
Maybe it should reconsider its business plan?
No, it’s not closed, it’s locked!

Already most searched for on this trip: “my glasses?” And always found.

On this trip I have already been able to tick one item off my bucket list!

Remco Campert, the poet.

“Resistance doesn’t start with big words but with small deeds †
…
ask yourself a question that’s how resistance begins
and then ask that question to someone else.”

“Bucket list”, the movie.
“The gods who guarded the gates of heaven only asked two questions.
Have you find joy in your life?
Has your life has brought joy to others?”

The source of the melancholy?
There is a music school around the corner.
Maybe that’s a good place to search?

In music there are many artists. (2)
Eric Clapton

ZO GEZEGD (3)

Music is music.

Dino, Albanees muzikant in Ljubjlana: “Ik ben een herder van de Albanese muziek.”

Willem, herder in Gent: “Mijn herdershond verstaat alleen Albanese commando’s.”

In de muziek zijn er veel artiesten (1)
Django Reinhardt & Stéphane Grappelli (1939)

Waarom mensen er niet in slagen om te overleggen (old skool)
“Het water was te diep. De berg te hoog. De woestijn te warm. De brug te ver.”

Waarom mensen er niet in slagen om te overleggen (update)
“Ik had geen netwerk. Mijn batterij was nog maar 5%. Mijn GPS vond geen satellieten. Heb jij dan geen WhatsApp??”

Wat is in hemelsnaam het nut van wespen?
Van muggen? Of van mensen?

This bar closes on Saturday evening, really?
Maybe it should reconsider its business plan?
No, it’s not closed, it’s locked!

Al meest gezocht op deze trip: “my glasses?” En telkens gevonden.

Op deze reis heb ik al een puntje van mijn bucket list kunnen aanvinken!

Remco Campert, de dichter.
“Verzet begint niet met grote woorden
maar met kleine daden
…
jezelf een vraag stellen
daarmee begint verzet
en dan die vraag aan een ander stellen.”

“Bucket list”, de film.
“The gods who guarded the gates of heaven only asked two questions.
Have you find joy in your life? Has your life has brought joy to others?”

De bron van de melancholie?
Hier is een muziekschool om de hoek. Misschien is dat een goede plek om te beginnen met die zoektocht?

In de muziek zijn er veel artiesten. (2)
Eric Clapton
