Hopefully you enjoy my thoughts and want to walk with me on the freakin' way of life, faith and all that! I am told I'm a freak and the works of my grey cells are way too freaky to be taken serious, so beware :-D

Friends are friends for ever...

Once upon a time...
... there were friends that sang a song and recorded it with the whole band.

Some time later, I got a CD from some dear friends.

Now there are words resonating in my mind. "Where we are in a year from now."
Once in a while it's driving tears to my eyes. I miss those dear friends. And with that, I think of all the dear friends I had and that moved away, or just live on the other side of the world.

They are still in my heart and mind and prayers.
And I always think of what it would be if we speak or see each other again, one day. And one day, maybe we can "shake each other's hands" and "share each other's land", again.
"Maybe I'll be there".
Because friends will be friends, right 'till the end.

facebook badge...

Isn't it cool: I just added a facebook badge for my profile and it says: "status: none".

Well, there. I'm back on Earth. And I'm not even an 'asylum seeker without a status' (as we have some of, in The Netherlands), I just don't have any status. Or maybe I see it blurred... I have the status 'none'. YEY!

What's 'none'? Something to choose, or something to be given, or something to earn?? Who decides? Who knows...

I know I do have a status at home, and according to my dogs. But maybe facebook doesn't follow the consensus. What status does facebook have? According to me, that is. Or is a status something that is to be formed by the community? Facebook can have the status 'addiction'. Some should go cold turkey with it. Some should go cold turkey with the whole typing thing... or anything with screens...
Facebook connects people. Status 'connector'. And so non-selfish it is! It knows everything from everybody, although it is not sharing all the information. Status 'secret service'.
There's a add that tells you how old you look on your profile picture... who decides?! I'll get me another profile pic, my 2 dogs or so, from behind.

The profile picture isn't 'an profil' at all, by theway. Giving away no profile. Fits to the 'none' status.

I have a brainwave!
"Status: none" is only applicable when not having anybody around. So when you are just you. Where you can FINALLY be yourself. Alone. No status because there is nobody to compare with. No community. Facebook is no community. It's just you. A lone statue on an own pedestal. I know some people who think they are. And I know some people who are sure they should be. And some people who think they are not, but are wrong.


Or isstatussomething you are, not in comparison to others? Then the world of statuses would be easy, and everybody would agree. Because it's a status quo. No status none.
So what's all the fuss with hierarchy then?! No change of status possible, so no change of status allowed.

I'll always stay status none. According to Facebook.

I love me.
Finally...
