Double life 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mijn slaap vol boze dromen
Elke nacht was veel te lang
Maar al mijn geesten en demonen
maken mij niet langer bang

Monsters slapen nooit
Dus ik ga gewoon naar bed
Monsters slapen nooit
Ik heb de wekker niet gezet
want ze maken mij wel wakker

 

 

Dit is het land waar ik thuis kom na vakantie

 

 

Run to the bedroom,
in the suitcase on the left
you'll find my favorite axe.

 

When did we decide campgrounds needed laundromats? When the car stalled,whose bright idea was it to reach for a cell phone instead of a tool?

There was a time when the words "quick" and "fix" were never found together in the same sentence. When our homes needed to be built, we grabbed brothers, fathers and hammers, not a mouse that clicked on Mr. On-line Contractor. Our nation's great accomplishments were a testament to hard work, sweat and ingenuity. After all, we not only put a man on the moon, but built him a rover to drive while he was up there.

What will we achieve today?

Can we turn our cheek to the enemy known as convenience before it makes us helpless? Do we have what it takes to depend solely on ourselves?

 

 

Ik heb nooit "teringleijer" gezegd.

En als ik het al gezegd heb, dan bedoelde ik het in de meest positieve zin van het woord.

 

 

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more.

Lord Byron
