We are so sorry for losing some freedom
You and I are so much of the same breed
Yes, we are too much alike
So, we are bound to be chosen
For the roles of completely casual passers-by
And I’m screaming – stop shooting a film
This film I’ve seen before
Hey, director finish that shooting
But he just mocks in his lens like a target.
(specially translated for you from Russian)
Brainstorm, “Wind”
P.S. When thinking over the words of this song I felt like crying. I guess you would never find a person who didn’t happen to experience the same feelings. We have so much in common and look so much alike, but we are chosen for different roles of accidental passers-by. I just recollect the film plot of my love experience and the people who used to be the main characters... We used to be the reflection of each other, sometimes it seems we are of the same nature and breed… We look absolutely like-minded and have the same bright ideas for the single undivided future. And why does it happen that we can’t be together when it comes to rewards? I’ve been thinking about it a lot, but once I heard this song, I couldn’t help writing this article. That was not me who was writing these words, it was the words that were writing a simple life story being created by someone for us. We consider ourselves to be the creators of our relations and common being. We believe with awe that we can save those dearest feelings and relations, building our characters. Sometimes we are cheating ourselves… Someone - a life director - is shooting another successful film with a different and surprising end for us. Time passes by and you get a clear understanding that you were leading actors and actresses for two different films. There was a period you were to be together to share your experience, life skills and knowledge for brilliant playing the leading role of your life.
When looking at the very beginning of my film, I smile and my soul is getting warmer of those sweet memories. This is the life with its take-off and landing…
But still can’t get it: why do like-minded people happen to be apart?
Many thanks to my mysterious sister Alina for inspiring me and bringing this article to you!
Zdrasti Vika, Zdrasti Alina, This is beautiful, this is life and some of the paradoxes and parallels and I believe opportunities and choices put before us and these are all a part of life's lessons. Clearly, we are the sum total of all of our experiences, good or bad and that coupled with whatever our innate makeup might be and add to that geographical and cultural environment and still have such a connection with someone is to me miraculous in it's self and then we ponder the "why". "They"say that there are no coincidences and yet there is an infinite variety of outcomes based on every little choice we make, and most if we are human, don't always make the correct choices for ourselves. To have this kind of profound connection and attraction is at the very least, a gift, it can also be torment if you are afraid or cannot act on it. Fear can hold us back from what we want or can achieve, just like love can bring those same things closer, and every choice you make will effect everyone you know and everything you do into infinity. I try to listen to my heart and to intuition. Most people seem to deny both and go purely with what they see or what they are told. This article really hits home for me because for the most part these are the same questions I have been asking myself for about a month now. I don't know, if following our hearts means any kind of wreckage for anyone else, do we suffer and deny ourselves of what could be? What if every one would be better off? If there is such a "connection, I can almost guarantee the other person probably feels the same way.
