My message in a bottle

All Things Must Pass

,



After Big Bang
just interplanetary gas

After day comes night
all things must pass

After rain comes sun
nothing will last

After being a child, now adult
goes so fast

After life, come death
in my age class

Tomorrow it´ll be me.......

Wow, the photo is amazing! And I love the poem.

Intimations of death, there, Allan. Sobering stuff! Just reminds me that we need to live the moment to its fullest extent.

:insane: Hey, hey! What's going on here?
Opera's most uplifting blog is turning into a Goth cult club?

Well the poem and the photo are great (several metal groups would like the copyrights), yet I don't like the meaning at all. I mean, it doesn't sound like Alan. So in case you are in a all-we-are-is-dust-in-the-wind phase then go on reading.

Do you think that by saying all this about the inevitable you'll have to write less? Oh, no, no dear Alan. Not at all. You have readers to take care of, millions of lines to write, many 4x4 cars to test, a lot of contributions to Denmark (do you think that a zero debt is enough? ha ha), many acts to promote world peace, a great educational idea that awaits around the corner, thousands of great photos to shoot (shooting a photo reminds me of Lucky Look but it may be to some destroyed brain neurons inside my head) and find the solution to the greatest problems of all - where is the damned switch that make cars fly out of traffic jams.

So, I'll just note this as a writter crisis due to counting years and fine you with just the obligation to shoot one of these happy thriving with life photos of yours and hitting my page over 10 times tomorrow (it will elevate my blogs shares).

HYS (Come on man, smile a bit, I've tried hard...yes...YES :yes: )

PS 1: A great Greek rock singer, Vasilis Papakonstantinou, always starts his concerts by something like "we will never die fucken grave-digger".
PS 2: Sabrina's addition would seem great to V. Papakonstantinou.

Thanks all for the contributions and comments.

One additional comment from me to ZeroG, though. Now, let granddaddy tell you something.

No, seriously, at some point in your life - if you´re lucky enough to live that long - you´ll inevitably say to yourself: "Hey, now I´m probably half way through my life!" And if you haven´t realised it before, then is the time to get the drift; you´re mortal.

At some later stage - if you´re still lucky - you´ll have to become friendly with your death. Otherwise death will be your enemy. Me adressing my death has nothing whatever to do with any goth-thing or any other style. It´s a necessity of life.

You know what? There is something very, very comforting about the thought that "All Things Must Pass"

Well, enough of this elderly man rambling - and by the way, ZeroG - do you by any chance happen to know the phone number to any of those metal bands wanting the copyright? It´s okay if they are stinking rich!

Unless you have an incurable disease, I can't see why you wouldn't live on from tomorrow :wink:
Great photo, I presume it's of your own making?

Allan 5. April 2006, 06:55

Yes, the photograph is of my own making. Otherwise I would have credited the maker. Sometimes I google a picture and use it as an illustration - but then I´m not tagging the post with the word "photography"

I will indeed live on from tomarrow - as I have done every day of my life. As a fellow blogger once said - I hope to leave this world with a beer in one hand, a bag of strawberries in the other, yelling "Wo - hooo, what a ride!!"

But I will have to die anyhow.

Thank you for the comment, bEnnOx

good poem~I can understand without a dictionary!I feel good~
Good photo,too~

zeroG 5. April 2006, 17:47

I was just joking about the goth-style (which -provided its honest and not let's-make-money - I like very very much but I'm not fanatic enough to have those phone numbers :smile: ).

And you're right about the way you confront the inevitability of us all. I was just afraid that the idea got you under it's wheels and thought of giving you an uplifting push with that weird humor of zero gravity (and importance).

Thanks Jan..


And ZeroG, that´s perfectly all right
