Aleks is such a gifted writer like so many other Atopers. Her post made me cry as it captures how I feel every day specially when I turn the lights off. This paragraph has touched me deeply more than anything. How I miss my beloved DH! Thanks Aleks (hope you still lurk here) for your beautiful essay. And a big YES to the video - love it even though it makes me cry. I guess crying is good for the soul sometimes.
"Speaking of, there is a word in Portuguese which has no English or Serbian equivalent, and which I accidentally picked up on my hunt for beautiful and rare words – ‘’saudade’’. It describes a deep, emotional state of nostalgia, a profound feeling of melancholic longing after someone or something that is no longer there and may never return. Saudade is not about undefined emptiness beside you, and it is not about blank spaces, devoid of images, smells and memories; it is about love you still feel, see and smell even though they are not physically there. It is so much more than loneliness - your awareness of what you had is vastly overpowering. The ghost of your love torments you more than your current state of solitude, the feeling of absence of someone you still love and terribly miss so acute. I believe the winds from the Andes Adam rode on his way to Vegas brought a gust of Saudade with him, enveloping ‘’Another Lonely Night’’ with those sonorous fruits grown for overripe hearts."
Mayumi, I felt the same way reading her words. She expresses so well just what I am feeling, truly gifted with words. |

Oh Oh!! When I was watching the vid again, I noticed that on one side of his jacket it says *Far Out* !! LMAO!! I'm sure someone will figure out what all the sayings are on the jacket, but I thought this one was funny/cool! It's a saying we used to use when I was young...and that was a long time ago! HA!!
