Three Years of Blogging
I started Words of a Broken Mirror three years ago! I can hardly believe so much time has passed since then. I wrote a couple of posts in Romanian, then switched to English. It was a good way to practice and allowed more people to interract with me. And this was a great choice. Cause I met the most amazing people from all over the world. You can meet them too, just browse through my blogroll!
Last year in May, my wonderfull friend and sister by choice Trisi got a .com domain as a present on my name's day and I built a new home for WOBM over there. But as this blogger page was home to my ideas, torments, songs playing in my mind, to my happyness and sorrows, to my friends' comments for so long, I kept it going long after it went out of page rank (let's all thank Google again for their nice little algorythm).
It is however time to move on. It's impossible to keep both blogs running and provide meaningful and frequent content given my generally crazy schedule which apparently is going to stay busy for ever. I won't delete the posts or restrict visits in any way. This is where my blogger identity was born and it still is a great place to look through forgotten little thoughts and happenings.
I will keep posting on my photoblog, I won't transfer anywhere for now. So keep going back to see the Views of a Broken Mirror posted daily (at least that's what I want to achieve there).
I hope this change won't turn you into strangers and that you'll continue to drop by and see what's new on WOBM. I know I'll keep meeting amazing people over there and continue the amazing experience I've started three years ago in the blogosphere. See you all around!
P.S. On this bloggiversary, I give you one of my favorite songs: Depeche Mode, Precious. Enjoy!
Precious and fragile things Need special handling My God what have we done to You?
We always try to share The tenderest of care Now look what we have put You through...
Things get damaged Things get broken I thought we'd manage But words left unspoken Left us so brittle There was so little left to give
Angels with silver wings Shouldn't know suffering I wish I could take the pain for You
If God has a master plan That only He understands I hope it's Your eyes He's seeing through
Things get damaged Things get broken I thought we'd manage But words left unspoken Left us so brittle There was so little left to give
I pray You learn to trust Have faith in both of us And keep room in Your heart for two
Things get damaged Things get broken I thought we'd manage But words left unspoken Left us so brittle There was so little left to give
Sarah Brightman & Andrea Bocelli: Time to say goodbye
Given a certain decision I've made late last night, this song comes to my mind. It seems the best way to start saying goodbye to a virtual little place that's been my home for so long.
Sarah:
Quando sono sola sogno all'orizzonte e mancan le parole, si lo so che non c'è luce in una stanza quando manca il sole, se non ci sei tu con me, con me. Su le finestre mostra a tutti il mio cuore che hai accesso, chiudi dentro me la luce che hai incontrato per strada.
Time to say goodbye. -- Con te partirò. Paesi che non ho mai veduto e vissuto con te, adesso sì li vivrò. Con te partirò su navi per mari che, io lo so, no, no, non esistono più, it's time to say goodbye. -- con te io li vivrò.
Andrea:
Quando sei lontana sogno all'orizzonte e mancan le parole, e io si lo so che sei con me, con me, tu mia luna tu sei qui con me, mio sole tu sei qui con me, con me, con me, con me.
Time to say goodbye. -- Con te partirò. Paesi che non ho mai veduto e vissuto con te, adesso sì li vivrò. Con te partirò su navi per mari che, io lo so, no, no, non esistono più,
Both:
con te io li rivivrò. Con te partirò su navi per mari che, io lo so, no, no, non esistono più, con te io li rivivrò. Con te partirò
This song of the day is inspired by Sarah. Thank you :)
I want the world to wake I want to give you peace I want to vindicate You need to be released
Don't want to hurt you I need to make you see If I desert you Its just to make you see
That I'm a man that's weak And I'm a man that's lost I give it all away To complicate the cost
Don't want to hurt you I need to make you see If I desert you Its just to make you see I'm not going to hurt you now I need to make you see If I desert you now Its just to make you see
I want you to be free I want you to be free from me
Learn a Few Things about Where You Place Your Bets
I have never been a big fan of gambling. Still I cannot ignore it is a hobby for a lot of people and a serious illness for some. The truth of the matter is there are people jumping on planes on Friday and traveling to a country where gambling is legal and spending Saturday and Sunday indulging themselves.
So, if people gamble, the should choose where they gamble wisely. So why spend money getting there (by car, taxi or something else) when you could try playing your favorite game online? And as I believe in informed decisions, the best place to start is a site providing information on any online casino you might think of. You can then safely evaluate your options and afterwards forget about everything and just enjoy yourself.
Why would a specialized site be needed to get online casino reviews? Well, there are over 3000 such casinos out there, each with pros and cons. Reviewing them all personally would actually be a huge waste of time. So my advice, if you really want to gamble, play wisely!
