Wonderful thread Tory
Thank you so much for starting it. Some of you may remember my thread about two brothers - Uwe and myself- who planed for years to travel to Italy with all my family so that he can relax in the sunshine enjoying the marvellous landscape, the great culture and splendid food.

He simply was not allowed to leave to even see and hug his nieces once. Just recently we travelled to that area in Italy where we and Uwe wanted to spent our hollidays then. It is a place like paradise and we both felt that Uwe was with us in our hearts and watched us from above shining his love into our souls. If you are one of my friends on facebook you can watch some pictures of our journey.
In the following link you will find an Italian song about love and life - about what in my opinion is important in life:

Here are the English lyrics to that song:
Le Rondini - Swallows
I would like to get inside the wires of a radio
And to fly over the rooftops of a city
To encounter dialectal expressions
To blend with the smell of a coffee
View attachment 5042View attachment 5043View attachment 5044
To stop on the nose of old people while they are reading newspapers
And with the powder of dreams...to fly and fly
In the coolness of the stars...even beyond
Chorus:
Dream, dream in the sea of dreams
I would like to twirl in the sky as the swallows
And every so often I stop here and there
To have a nest under the roofs, in the coolness of porches
And like them, to close my eyes with easiness in the evening
I want to follow every beat of my heart
To understand what is going on inside
And what moves it
Where comes every so often this strange sorrow
In short, I want to understand what love is
Where it takes you, where it gives you
Chorus:
Dream, dream, in the sky of dreams
Love
Markus
for being here, sharing, caring.
Just thinking of your love, and how horrific that was what they did to him.
