18 år!

Medan eg har hatt ein liten datapause så har vi gjort unna ein liten svipptur til Kristiansand, handla kajakk og feira 18 års brullupsdag!

6.7 var den store dagen, men så råflott feiring lar vi andre ta seg av, så pizza i Arendal med alle fire var i grunnen veldig bra.

I fjor trakk eg fram “dagane” med Odd Nordstoga. I år vil eg gjerne dele ein god Joni Mitchell tekst som aldri vert gamal. Den skildrar kanskje ikkje mitt og Eivind sitt ekteskap på ein prikk, men teksta er likevel ein av mine absolutte favorittar, der den kanskje skildrar at verda ikkje alltid er det den ser ut til i fyrste omgong….. Eg gler meg til kvar dag med Eivind, og syns det er ganske fantastisk å stadig oppdage nye sider ved kvarandre og nye retningar vi kan gå… saman.

PS. Fekk du veldig lyst til å høyre denne no, så anbefalar eg 2000-versjonen veldig…..

Both sides now

Rows and Flows of angel hair
ice cream castles in the air
feather canyons everywhere
I’ve looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way

I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It’s cloud illusions I recall
I really don’t know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I’ve looked at love that way

But now it’s just another show
You leave ‘em laughing when you go
And if you care, don’t let them know
Don’t give yourself away

I’ve looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It’s love’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say “I love you” right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I’ve looked at life that way

Oh but now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they tell me that I’ve changed
Well something’s lost but something’s gained
In living every day

I’ve looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It’s life’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know life at all

I’ve looked at life from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It’s life’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know life at all
