July 12 for my russian friends - column about Essaouiraзабавный ритуал образовался в моей жизни! независимо от того, собираюсь я или у меня вообще паспорт еще не готов - в конце июня я открываю глаза и слышу мяуканье чаек за окном... Все ясно - фестиваль в Эссувейре начинается сегодня! Надо бы зайти в кафе Де Франс, обнять всех старых и расцеловать новых друзей, а также поинтересоваться - нашелся ли в Касабланке мой багаж? Оно конечно весело - путешествовать налегке, но там зарядник и батарейки к фотоаппарату! Все остальное шмотье меня мало волнует. Да и Густаво беспокоится, нашла я жилье или спала на улице... За неделю до фестиваля все отели мне отказали, но я особо не переживала - язык до ручки доведет! Утром я завтракала на крыше, в гостинице нашлось место на одну ночь, техники уже сновали по площади Мулай Хассан, город просыпается так рано лишь в дни фестиваля... Джалал увидав меня, открыл рот и похоже забыл закрыть. В кафе Де Франс сидела кучка американских студентов под опекой моих друзей из Рабата, как и год и два назад... Посидев часика полтора, я извинилась и пошла прокладывать маршрут по медине с целью найти жилье на время фестиваля. Сюрприз вполне удался. Адиль-спаситель выдал мне запасные сланцы, свои ноги я стерла - а носки тоже остались в багаже! Густаво я нашла в Риад Аль Мадина, он завтракал с певицей из Лондона Евой, чей бойфренд где-то потерялся в дороге, так мы на два голоса уговаривали её остаться на фестиваль - незачем себе душу травить, лучше повеселиться вволю! Подумать только, всего 4 часа беготни по городу и шикарный номер с огромной кроватью (редкость!) добыт честным путем. Сказался опыт прогулок без карты по Рабату и Касабланке, а также попытка прогулки по медине Феса (мы с Ленкой вернулись туда, откуда пришли, сделав замысловатый крюк)... Теперь только душ и массаж с аргантовым маслом! Хорошая идея была! Маалем Абделькадер Амлил из Рабата (родня Джалала и Адиля) играл в Шез Кибир за деньги, я разрекламировала это дело двум бельгийцам. Разрываясь между желанием побеситься со всей честной компанией и фанатической приверженностью Маалему, я все-таки заняла место в первом ряду, что оказалось рисково - аргентинские мальчики Фермин-Нельсон так шустрили своими прыгалками в экстатическом фьюжне, что даже сами гнава-музыканты жались к стенам, отступая от микрофонов. Жаркая вечеринка! это Абделькадер Амлил в прошлом году, в Шез Кибир сьемки запретили. На моем этаже квартируется канадский бас-гитарист (к фестивалю отношения не имеет), о котором я весь день заботилась как родная мать, пока он не попросил поцеловать его (!) в 4 часа утра, когда я едва живая вернулась с площади Мулай Хассан. Закария, хозяин дома, избавил меня от необходимости отвечать - радушно пригласив всех курить траву и пить виски в патио... Я заперла дверь и легла спать... После концерта Кимани Марлея мы договорились встретиться на площади, где наш друг Юсеф играл концерт в группе Маалема Махмуда Гинея, мы его практически не видели: он днями-ночами пропадал на репетициях. Зато увидав его на сцене все бросились скандировать "ЮСЕФ! ЮСЕФ! САХА КОЙО!!!" КИМАНИ МАРЛЕЙ маалем Махмуд Гиния в прошлом году на фестивале юных талантов с детишками
Площадок у фестиваля более десятка, но площадь Мулай Хассан - моя любимая. Это бывший рынок чернокожих рабов, рядом дышит океан, а над сценой мечутся чайки. Здесь я успеваю позавтракать до трех раз за утро, прислушиваясь к дневным репетициям, второпях полдничая сибасом или лобстером в точке общепита. По ночам все танцуют и обнимаются - дети, старики, иностранцы и туареги, прибывшие на верблюдах из недр Сахары. Тут же дамочки пачками впадают в транс, удерживать их бесполезно - само пройдет через десять минут, как только гембри Маалема закончит ворковать свое "Мимуна Мимуна"... Не найдя свой народец в условленной точке я растерялась. Во-первых, какой-то воришка пытался выдрать мой мобильник прямо из рук, чуть не упал, бедняжка. А во-вторых даже если я позвоню, вся команда в экстазе, а телефон на концерте просто не слышно. Передо мной вырос Рашид, полисмен из Рабата, с высоты своих двух метров он пожалуй найдет Адиля и компанию! Однако с высоты своего роста он так и не услышал, что я от него хочу... Позднее он присоединился к нам, громогласно пел и плясал, топча пластиковые бутылки, цепко держал меня за шиворот, пока я колбасилась до потери пульса... За три дня фестиваля Москва совершенно выветривается из памяти, а попытка Мартина заговорить со мной по-сербски чуть не потерпела фиаско... Словарь Эссавейры - это смесь арабского, французского и английского, приправленная горячими ритмами гнава - настоящее взаимопонимание вне языков и кастовых понятий. p.s.: продолжение следует...
April 13 few months passed as one day...Dear FRIENDS!
I am deeply sorry for my absence on these pages. I got so much to do!
At last I have seriously fallen in love with my work! Here I'm not speaking about practice of yoga - I mean exactly teaching and healing.
I am really blessed with such a demonised phenomenon - Return of Saturn (You can learn about it more from astrologic web-site or book)
I can't travel until June for they make my new passport (long story with both passports this year) by this "compelled stop" in many situations and cases I have been needed to choose to take the responsibility or not so I DID! I'm also trying to start classes at time and to finish when needed (still unsuccessfull) but then I started to leave my stuff in a cafeteria, then I can miss ticket somethere (related to return of Saturn)... One hole you will stop up - there is another hehe
We already finished the very first organized Pranayam-course in our centre. We are Inna, Lena and I. I was writing sequences for each class but we hardly followed half of them completely - the reality transform any fixed plan. Now three of us definetely need rest for next few months...
I am not quiet sure that it should look like this but anyway it was deep enough for those who prefer asana-practice and practical enough for others who prefer to fly in a dream-world (Vikalpa hehehe)
I got my own therapeutics to conduct (hsshhhhh!!!) and I look forward with a lot of optimism.
It is a hard work but it teaches me best how to deal with both - students and assistants.
I do promise to visit internet as soon as possible and to visit all the pages I wanted!
blessings for EVERYBODY!
February 10 an open letter for Xenia :)Dear Xenia!  Just came back from 1/8 of Davis Cup... Russia-Serbia. I missed friday and saturday matches for I was working but the last day is "a must"
 I meet there my nephew Aleksandar as we hoped to see Novak Djzokovic and enjoy first class tennis.
We both supported Djokovic (not me only !)
 Serbian team lost its chance but even weak and influenzed Djokovic brilliantly got 2 sets against Davydenko!
After Djokovic unexpected denial to play(!) my nephew gone so I moved a bit forward to watch the last battle accompanied by few serbian pressmen.
Viktor Troicky is a real newcomer in serbian team, he got russian grandparents and speaks russian as well... To find himself in Russia must be very touching and strange to play "against russians"
That's why some russian girlz yelled "VITYA DAVAY" for they really simpatized that guy
 So it was quiet interesting to watch him "gaining revenge"( for his friday defeat ) by boarding the serving cliff - Dima Tursunov ... and HE WON! HAPPY BIRTHDAY VIKTOR! KEEP DOING!
I'm not quiet sure that You are interested in sport especially in tennis as I am ( since I'm ex-player or still good player hehe) ...
anyway it's part of life and has dramatic moments, there are details http://www.daviscup.com/news/matchreport.asp?articleid=14522

November 28 Pune TIMES: Iyengars and translations...BLESSINGS TO EVERYBODY!
I hope that You are doing good, since I don't have time even to watch over your blogs briefly... but anyway - HUGS!
This month is almost finished, translations are on the way to get finished... my braincells are somehow changed into more homebound mood. I decided to stay in Pune for 1 more week in December to get an opportunity to "grow up" in standing postures. I like this house of Iyengars, the whole family and the way Guruji speaks and corrects, he do not pretend as if he is living god, his mortality could be seen well and indeed it makes us aware about time we don't have too much even if very small things are needed to get changed inside and outside...
I'm trying to change my life-style so I found a lot of fun cooking different dishes for my friends who are often my guests for the lunch or dinner! "Kesari Coco-milk pumpkin"(pumpkin, carrots, cashaws, coconut-milk) (For that dish You need Kesari Milk Masala but from my point of view - not so hard to make it yourself!) KMM: ground almonds, cashaws, pistachioes + cardamom&saffron powdered Cut pumpkin and carrots to big pieces, put everything to the pan, add a bit water and cashaws whole nuts as a "meat" in dish in 5-6 minuts turn everything and strew the stuff with KMM-mixture when there is almost no water - add coconut-milk from tetrapac, or at least a bit of cream also good
good luck, I'm in hurry!
HUGS&KISSES from PUNE, INDIA November 08 experiencing solitude...Blessings to everybody!
There is a holiday called Dewali in India and I occasionally enjoy loneliness these few days!
It is good for my translations anyway hehehe
During last 2 weeks I was spending a lot of time in the holy city of Rishikesh, Ramjhula river-bank... Lena and I went out for our trekking to Jamuna-source, the temple of Jamunotri. It was hard trekking because I can't take easy these himalayan serpantines and then I didn't sleep good in Jankichatti 'cause of high-sickness. But anyway we reached successfully temple and the hot-source, got our bathes and puja-prasad.
I dropped one coin to water and wished to come back there and conquer the very source of Jamuna-river on the glacier... Himalayas I found very similar to Russia and high mountains are inspiring themselves!
We also experienced Reiki-1 together, got initiated by our friend Yugesh, I will practice it on my friend Masha here in Pune where I am for my yoga-studies in R.I.M.Y.I.- the only genuine reason of my Indian trip thes year
On my birthday 3rd of November Yugesh helped to organize great puja Mahamrityunjay Mantra chanting - unique devotion dedicated to my Return of Saturn age (I got it!!!) It has started at 8-30 in the morning when I enjoyed my personal solar meditation astrologically needed this moment) and I didn't expect but it continued until sunset started at 16-00. I liked our priests Suraj, Kiraj and Vivek who were so patient with us during that all-day-long involved treatment of "karma-washing"
I hope to share some videos and photos next time with everybody, I just passed by cyber-cafe and decided to check e-mail!
Stay strong and blessed my dear friends!
You can try with SMS on my indian number +919890396751 October 14 packing my stuff...Hugs to everybody from Russia!
Today I planned to go to the intensive exercises as usual but... I didn't sleep well and when I woke up finally I realized that it's SNOWING outside!!! I though I won't see the snow before my departure but the Mother Nature decided to show me what should I expect in the mountains!
I won't give up! I'm going to wear the winter clothes I took in Extrim-store yesterday that's how I will test it for our trekking in Himalayas hehehe
My flight is on 21th of October and I hope to get connected again in the beginning of November when I will be in Pune, India for my yoga-studies. So - see You then!
Yesterday I met my friends from the yoga-seminar 2 Lenas and Marina, so I got some new pictures from Marina and couple of videos for Youtube. You are welcome to look at the seashore I adore - the Becici-beach in Montenegro!
</DIV > September 30 the hard work!Blessings to the whole party!
We did it!!! Lena&I... Our first montenegrian seminar is over (Iyengar Yoga we practice), we came back home and already think about the next trip hehehe
It was harder than we supposed in the beginning to deal with people we know very briefly for to create the working atmosphere in the class and to make them all ONE. Oneness is a great think if You get it for the right movement!!! It was common lesson for disciples and for us - teachers, we learned from each other a lot. We know now that we should be prepared to fight for the time of our own exercises and silence not to be teared to pieces by questions and friends...
I'm coming back to my translations without any hope to finish it on time heheheh
HUGS!!!
p.s.: all the pictures made by Bykova Elena
p.p.s.: is that now OK with the color? hehehe September 15 gnawa, essaouira, rabat... August 2007the faces here isn't hard to recognize on my photos from this year, unfortunatelly the sound of guembri is too low to be recorded by video-cam, but the atmosphere You can easily get! ENJOY! September 07 just came back and fly away soon...Dear friends! I'm happy that You visited my page even if I wasn't here to post someting new. it's important for me.
Last month I only translated that chapter about Gnawa-culture to russian, nothing more for the web. Except 6th of August of course, I'm happy to cooperate with Ron!
I went to Morocco once again to visit the festival of young talents of Gnawa and to see my friends there (mostly A.B. hehehe)
It was very funny and "Deja-vu" for me sometimes to see Essaouira and Rabat again, I gave my videos for remastering and hope to post something finally to youtube so You could enjoy music of Maalem Aziz Bakbou family and Maalem Mokhtar Guinea family from Essaouira. And of course the great LILA GNAWA in Rabat I visited the night before my flight back. His record-video from TV You can watch below.
I liked the beach "Nation" between Sale and Kenitra - long one and waves are high enough and funny, exactly for jumping. Jahmill-brother, You would shurely like it!
I'm extremally busy with my serbian translations before my trip to Montenegro next week. My friend Lena and I organized the yoga-seminar for our people there. Actually, I will take all these poems with me because there is more possibility to get the explanations of the poetical meaning from montenegrian people for whom serbian language seem to be mother tongue (still!)
HUGS AND BLESSINGS FROM MOSCOW! July 14 GNAWA-stories: о традиции ГНАВА по-русски
перевод и адаптация - Анастасия Семенова (с)
Где-то в Марокко…Эссавейра...
Оказаться в шесть утра в городе, похожем на сон?
Эссавейра...Остров Могадор...Утро.... Чайки... Дворники...
Ушные раковины впитывают ветер Эссавейры. Эссавейра - это ветренный город.
Между африканским шаманизмом и исламом, между примитивными традициями и современностью, на перекрестках глобализации Вы обнаружите ГНАВА – мистических музыкальных лекарей из Марокко. Традиция, уходящая корнями в маргинальную субкультуру, выросшая за последнюю декаду в официально представляющую свою страну, Гнава открылась любителям музыки по всему миру.
В дальнейшем: Гнава (с заглавной буквы) – культурное явление
гнава (строчное) – народность, представители субкультуры
Термин «Гнава» имеет сегодня в Марокко 2 значения. Одно из них обозначает этническое меньшинство, ведущее происхождение от чернокожих рабов и солдат, приведенных из Южной Сахары более 5 веков назад. Люди, называющие себя «гнава», также относятся к небольшой группе, внутри этого меньшинства, проводящей Лила Дардеба – музыкальный ритуал вызова духов. Члены этого сообщества в количестве менее 300 человек, сохраняли свои традиции в веках, истории о своем порабощении, выживании и адаптации.
Гнава известны как потомки чернокожих африканских рабов, приводимых в Марокко в течение нескольких веков военных походов и работорговых экспедиций. Падение царства Тимбукту в 1591 году от рук берберских войск султана Аль Мансура, обозначило массовый приток рабов в Марокко. Тимбукту с его мечетями и религиозными школами был самым влиятельным городом мусульманской культуры в Африке. В 1591 году большинство населения западной Африки исповедуя Ислам смотрело на мир мягким взглядом суфизма. Под либеральным влиянием суфизма многие популярные религиозные практики вызова духов, танцы, пение, хождение по углям вошли в исламскую традицию. Эффект популяризации Ислама через компромисс с существующими верованиями находит свое отражение в субкультуре Гнава. Гнава являет собой живой исторический процесс ассимиляции.
За столиком в кафе четверо. Тебя неминуемо к ним притянет, потому что в шесть утра другие кафе еще не работают, а там как раз один стул совершенно одинок... Все собрались и ждут именно тебя, обсуждать пока нечего, оживленное предвкушение выветрилось, осталась тишина ожидания внутри. РИТУАЛЫ
Лила Дардеба – ритуал вызова духов, лежит в самом сердце движения Гнава. Быть «гнава» означает принимать активное участие в таких ритуалах. Литургия уходит корнями в мистический ислам и африканский шаманизм (культ Вуду) и преследует 2 цели – излечение и посвящение.
Лила – церемония, длящаяся всю ночь, объединяет в себе музыку, акробатические танцы, яркие наряды и воскурения.
Сложный рисунок литургии призван вовлечь присутствующих в экстатический танец, лишь тогда они смогут отринуть личное Я и объединиться со своим Мастером-Духом (Мелк, множ. Млук), мощной духовной сутью бытия.
Воскурения, проводимые до и во время Лила-церемонии очищают и благословляют инструменты (гембри, кракебы и табал), ритуальные предметы и участников, а также служат дверью, через которую входят духи. Каждому Мастеру-Духу принадлежат различные комбинации ритуальных трав.
Кульминацией жизни людей гнава является «Барака» , благословение Аллаха. «Барака» - это жизненная сила, ее невозможно заполучить - она может быть только дарована свыше. «Барака» дает Маалему (мастеру церемонии) силу быть посредником духов и позволяет Мокадемма (жрица Гнава) исцелять людей. Для многих гнава гораздо важнее получить благословение в земной жизни, чем довольствоваться им на небесах.
Эссавейра. Декорации площади Мулай Хассан призывают не играть, но жить! Хамму – Красный Дух. Мастер животных жертвоприношений.
Лала Мира – Желтый Дух, женская сущность, любящая громкий смех.
Мимун (Мимуна – жен.) – Черный Дух из Южной Сахары.
Мусса (Моисей) – Голубой Дух пантеона Гнава
Абделкаддер Джилани – популярный исламский святой, похороненный в Багдаде. Дух Белых.
Многое в сакральной культуре Гнава еще не описано. Люди гнава получают информацию о жизни преимущественно интуитивным путем, их время не измеряется часами и календарем. Их жизнь в настоящем, они ищут непосредственной связи с божественной пищей традиции Гнава...
July 03 I PASSED MY EXAM!I'm so proud! It wasn't useless to make our practice every morning in Morocco. And it was hard to keep touch with yoga when so much things happens at the same time all around!
My level of yoga-teaching is now Introductory-2! It's only beginning of the long journey of course... but really important step forward!
I realized that I need to spend more time with books and to learn Pranayama more to get into touch with higher state of mind and body as like as to get prepared for the next level in 2 years...
These days I celebrate, learn to dance gnawa and try to play Guembri in the forest!
8-10 of July I go to Montenegro to pay for the house we are going to rent in September and to enjoy concert of Rolling Stones with my friends
I WISH EVERYBODY STAY STRONG AND BLESSED FROM ABOVE! June 27 finally at home... OH!!!Well... it's hard to describe how I feel after such an amazing trip! Morocco is a country really blessed by God!
Actually we didn't go to Sahara after Fez, after 2-3 days of rest in Rabat my moroccan brother Omar, my ivoirien brother Jahmill, russian sister Lena and I - went to Ouzoud. Les cascades d'Ouzoud...
After Fez-festival we really needed some relax in peaceful atmosphere and so we got on waterfalls, without any electricity in camping place hehehe I took it easy cause I have old-fashioned photocam wich works without batteries, tomorrow after getting negative film from Photo-LAB I will actually know if I have some nice pictures of morning in Ouzoud or not! So, wait a bit, my dear friends!
Essaouira... Sawira... the place to be
Actually it's useless to describe how funny it was, such a friendly winds of hope and love are blowing there... enjoy pictures!
p.s.: pictures from Fez and Rabat I will put aside in photo-folder - don't miss them!!!
June 06 hallo from Fes!Here I am! We came just few days ago but I already forgot about my home, my city and work, about everything. It took about 24 hours to get the place from Moscow. We had to change 2 airplanes and 3 trains from Casa-airport.
It was funny adventure as we slept on the metal bench in turns until sun started to rise. Sunrise was unbelievable but the windows were too dirty to make good pictures. We took a train from airport to the station of Casa, but one old woman just pushed us both back into carriage on Casa-voyageur and we missed our point of change trains so... strange story. We suppose that she just liked to ride with us one more station? hehehe
We are in Fes until 10th of June...
This festival of sacred music is much more interesting than I though in the beginning!
See this web-site to find out more about this -
In the air You can nearly smell unbelievable mixture of cultures and spiritual movements of any kind.
People came here from all around the world (australia, england, USA, India, Pakistan, Syria and from Russia only Elena and I)
We visited 6 concerts in previous 2 days as we didn't want to miss anything. Masters of Qawwali music from Lachore were great last night, kept the public in charge all the time. I think it's better to let public dance on such perfomances. For those who are able to pay the tickets - there is no freedom in movements! Why so? As if rich people are less free than poor ones. That's it hehehe Every night Elena, Imad (guy from art-exgibition) and I both go to evening concerts on Bab Makina square and then to the party of Soufis in Dar pasha Tazi. Soufic nights are prayer sessions, every night different brotherhoods perform their music of awakening mind and soul, we wonderfully got places in front of the stage so we are able to see every wrinkle on the face of Scheikh - the teacher who leads and preach trough his singing. We also saw Dhikhr - a traditional soufic practice from Turkey, the famous "rotating dervishes" school...
I will try to make few pictures smaller to let You know how it looks like!
God bless EVERYBODY
ONA MOVE!
May 30 ... somethere near Mumbai - hot summer in Moscow :)I passed my preview! Thank You Xenia!
ASTROLOGY: I would like to advise those who follow horoscopes not to begin new business from 15 june until 11 july. Mercury wents into retrogradation - that's the reason. it's right time to get clear of debts of any sort, to work with deep analizys, reading documents and for different investigations. take care over there :)
I'm pretty tired from everything here and this "moscow summer" I feel it's worse even than hot in Sahara! I remember the summer like this when I slept partly on the window-still and half on the work-table covered with wet bedsheets and been gazing the stars above...
I called my friend Natalia (from montenegro trip) to walk together in the forest today, so we walked and then I finished translating of Lipovac letters to His Magesty at her home, old-fashioned text with lots of lyrical digressions. My part in this project is over...
hope to write more from Fes! May 19 just came back and gonna MOVE!Dear friends!
I just came back from Tula and Montenegro. In Montenegro it was great experience for me to take a part in historical investigation with my friend Natalia. After all we done she must write a good book about this character - general Lipovac from Gradjani.
I will write about him after I come back from Morocco
In Tula I liked Indian party in night-club after the first day has been done. Those guys from Rajastan made atmosphere great in a moment. I jumped all the time taking my part in common joy and happiness. The serbians had lots of troubles to get their stuff from our custom service so we were extremally happy after perfomance had been done and everybody drunk of course... except who? of course ME :)

an old poem of mine
September storyby: Anastassia O SemenovaI know: Love underlay it - BE CONTINUOUS, STRONG AND BLESSED HERE AND NOW! April 20 music from present Russia and USSRRon woke me up about russian music actually, so I would like to share with all of You some results of my research, everybody are welcome to post coments
The first one is world-famous HUUN HUUR TU-group from Tuva-land, part of Russia. Tuva-people came from Mongolia ages ago and they speak one branch of turkish-languages.
The second one is compilation of russian folk-songs dedicated to Maslennica - pancake-holiday which been celebrated ages before Russia was christened as a "Winter's death day"
The third one is actually funny music-video made in 70-ties by soviet television.
Song from movie "Violent romance" (singing last words dedicated to love which ruined her to death)
One of my favorits - PELAGEYA performing song of Vladimir Vysocky
Vladimir Vysotsky pefroming his song "Ballade about Love" (from movie of early 70-ties) with lyrics above translated to english, I LOVE THIS SONG! (2 versions!)
Vladimir Vysocky (1938-1980) the most popular songwriter in Russia until nowdays…
Ballad about love - translated by Jouravel
When, after all, the Great Deluge was over, The seas came back within their coastal lines, Out of the foam of the receding water The love came out softly to the land. And, for some time, it faded in the air, And lasted for an eon and some then.
And some eccentrics that still do exist Inhale with their full lungs that crazy mix, Expecting neither scolding nor reward, And thinking they are free to breath it in They realize one day that they fit in Somebody else's intermittent breathing.
But remember: a feeling's like a boat It's afloat until you realize: That the words "I love" mean simply that "I can breathe" and "I am still alive".
There will be plenty of despair and roaming. The land of love is the most noble land. The knights of love will have to go through testing With ever higher standards and demands. They will be separated by a distance, Devoid of leisure, sleep without rest.
But nothing in the world can turn them back. Those madmen do agree to pay it back, Pay any price, their lives won't be excepted In order to preserve and to protect Some indiscernible and magic thread Which love between them now has extended.
Wind and snow swept them off their feet, Made them drunk and raised them from the dead. 'Cause remember you have neither lived, Nor have breathed, if you have never loved.
And most of them have choked with love forever. They can't be reached no matter what you do. They are accounted by idle talk and rumor, And that account is laced with pure blood. But we will light up candles in the memory Of those who died from the unprecedented love.
Their souls, among the flowers, will run And their voices will blend and sound as one. They will inhale eternity together. And somewhere, on a fragile river cross, A narrow bridge across the universe Holding their breath, then they will meet each other.
I will open fields to those who love! Let them sing awake and in their rest. I do breathe and that means - I'm in love! I'm in love and that means - I exist!
April 06 I was asking "heaven" for my destinyInteresting person I found on youtube - Pierre Grim. I watched almost all videos about meditation and other points...
I asked for my predestination while I was meditating by night... and very soon after I got 2 more proposals of translation from serbian (and 1 I already have from earlier!) and one is connected with theatre! I like theatre so much... So I decided that translation and work with text is my fate? Let us see... hehehe
I will come back to blog as soon as possible.
Have a nice EASTER my friends!
STAY STRONG AND BLESSED FOREVER April 01 Last weekend I was nicely busy with my teen-brother Pasha from St-Peterburg, we took lots of walks around. I'd like to share some pictures with You, because I still don't have good program for making short-video on PC from my new DVD-camera. I've downloaded one but it doesn't work properly. The old one puts no sound into video ... so until then - let me show You photographs I made a week ago!
p.s.: I still dream about my 50 years old photo-camera to get film for it and make some old-fashioned pictures March 28 another translated poemCablegram
Friendship, my dear, causes healing
