my favorite word is Wyrd… look it up. some say it means “fate”… others – “life.”  i believe we make our own paths in life, our own fate. i am traveler… a student of life, with its pitfalls and its curses… the blessings & hopes – these keep me going as i try to make sense of my world and my existence.

one of my favorite pieces of poetry… maybe you’ve heard of enya’s version?

From The Bohemian Girl
 

The Gipsy Girl’s Dream*

I dreamt that I dwelt in marble halls,
With vassals and serfs at my side,
And of all who assembled within those walls,
That I was the hope and the pride.

I had riches too great to count, could boast
Of a high ancestral name;
But I also dreamt, which pleased me most,
That you lov’d me still the same…

That you lov’d me, you lov’d me still the same,
That you lov’d me, you lov’d me still the same.

I dreamt that suitors sought my hand;
That knights upon bended knee,
And with vows no maiden heart could withstand,
They pledg’d their faith to me;

And I dreamt that one of that noble host
Came forth my hand to claim.
But I also dreamt, which charmed me most,
That you lov’d me still the same…

That you lov’d me, you lov’d me still the same,
That you lov’d me, you lov’d me still the same.
