It can be tough to find peace and solace in a city that never stops moving, but with the right attitude it is possible.
“Solitude is not the absence of company, but the moment when our soul is free to speak to us and help us decide what to do with our life.”
– Paulo Coelho –
“It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson –
“Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self.”
– May Sarton –

City Dove
By Laleh
I don’t know what it’s all about
But every time I look around
All I see is how we’re holding on
Don’t ask me what’s wrong or right
I don’t even know the time
All I know is I’m holding on
I haven’t figured anything out
I haven’t figured anything, anything, anything out
I haven’t figured anything out
I haven’t figured anything, anything, anything out
City dove
Fly between the buildings and fences
Soft inside but rough on the edges
Waiting here for something to come
It just holding on, it just holding on
City dove
Fly between the stars and the headlights
Passing by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there’s something to come
It just holding on, it just holding on
It just holding on
I don’t really know my fate
I just know I’m on my way
There will be mistakes, movin’ on
I try to get to the heart of it
Fly low but looking for heaven
Oh, I know, I know I’m holding on
I won’t figure everything out
I’ll never figure everything out
You’ll never figure everything out
No, no, no, no
I won’t figure everything out
I’ll never figure everything, everything, everything out
City dove
Fly between the buildings and fences
Soft inside but rough on the edges
Waiting here for something to come
You just holding on, you just holding
City dove
Fly between the stars and the headlights
Passing by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there’s something to come
You just holding on, you just holding on
City dove
Fly between the buildings and fences
Soft inside but rough on the edges
Waiting here for something to come
You just holding on (You just holding on), you just holding
City dove
Fly between the stars and the headlights
Passing by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there’s something to come
You just holding on, you just holding on
You’ll never figure everything out

As we bid adieu to the warmth of summer's embrace, we find ourselves on the precipice of autumn's arrival. The world transforms into a canvas of vivid hues, a tapestry of crimson and gold, where every leaf tells a story of change. It's a season that invites introspection, a time when nature itself seems to pause and take a deep breath. As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, we're reminded of the beauty that resides in letting go, in the graceful dance of transition. So, as autumn approaches, let us embrace this chapter of transformation with open hearts, for it's a reminder that change can be as beautiful as the falling leaves.

There's a famous song that uses bridges as a metaphor for friends helping each other over the 'troubled waters' of life. The things is, bridges are not just meant for troubled waters, but for all waters, for every twist and turn life may throw our way. We can be the bridges for each other when the waters get deep. We span the gaps, offer a steady hand, and provide a pathway when the currents of life become challenging to navigate. It's about more than just crossing a river; it's about connecting hearts, souls, and dreams. In the river of existence, we're all travelers, and sometimes, all it takes is being a bridge for someone else, helping them cross to the other side. So let us build bridges not just over the troubled waters, but over every water we encounter, connecting our journeys and supporting each other through the depths of life's currents.
Ouch, I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah, I think that I might break
Lost myself again and I feel unsafe
Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small and needy
Warm me up

Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I
Ever change things that I feel?
If I could
Baby I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me?
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it another lonely day
You can go your own way
