... to friends, to relatives, to family; gone, past and still here today. i'm not coming back yet, i'm taking stock. call this a good, old plain interlude. below is where i come from. {i'll admit, there're gaps}. where to... who knows. .. you could put this on in another window.
no words spent, no hovering this time. sentimental days are here in these digitalized {perhaps even unwanted} exposures, consider my enthusiasm a wayward tweet. {if you find yourself on a photo below, and you don't want it, send me a note.}
gewoonweg schitterend ... memories
ReplyDeleteLovely, amazing, beautiful, funny... life... I like your "break"

Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMuch love, Carole
no worries, i'm not in there :) but you know, i think you look a lot like me - honestly!
ReplyDeletebeautiful, and I want to know more about you, in photos or words.
lieve Nadine
ReplyDeletewat een prachtig, persoonlijk en roerende post
emotioneel en hier en daar zo herkenbaar
je raakt me hermee diep in mijn hart
en ik vind het heel fijn dat we elkaar
hebben ontmoet, waardoor ik je ook
pratend en bewegend in mijn hoofd erbij zie
dikke kus!
met armen (zoals onze jongste vroeger zei)

lieve, ik kon niet meteen reageren toen ik je post gisteren zag,
ReplyDeletenogal indrukwekkend op één of andere manier of aangrijpend is misschien een beter woord
jaren in foto's, veel beweging en warmte, het opgroeien van je zoon
en die ogen van dat meisje dat jij was en bent, mooi
veel liefs xx
WONDERFUL. I really love it and it perfectly resonates to my this years 365 days collage Project (365 ways of memories) - sisters in mind.
ReplyDeleteI've been sick, so like to apologize for me beeing to quite and say a quick BIG TANK You and a letter will follow soon.
Stay well, Barbara
what a wonderful ode, dear nadine! I love the both portraits of you, you look happy! :)) mano
ReplyDeleteWonderful
ReplyDeleteI played the song and felt the rawness of emotion with your story unfolding before me........it is also comforting to see that it is okay to open up to unfold to reveal even here.
There is a liberation and I hope it was for you Miss Nadine
Thanks for sharing

Jeetje Nadine, om dit zo te zien...zo persoonlijk. Mij roert het ook om zo een stukje van je leven te zien. Vind het dapper en tegelijkertijd doet het je misschien ook goed. Mooi...dit is ook breekbaar :-))
ReplyDeleteHet is fijn dat ik je heb ontmoet...dat is van nu.
Heel veel liefs van mij xxx Ingrid
What an amazing interlude...seems you took us, took me!, by the hand and on a journey through your life, from past into present. Always an adventure to see people changing and staying themselves at the same time. And funny to look at some of your pictures and somehow recognise myself, my own stages of growing in them!! Strange thing! Of course I love the black-and-white ones from the beginning - far away times - and it was such a surprise to suddenly look into your child face! Thanks for taking me along! I'm not in the pictures, but it would be a pleasure!
ReplyDeleteA great tribute to life, change and flowing of time, your story, our story, with goods and bads, with loved ones, with memories. It's all there, it's all here in our hearts, it's ready to go forward, toward the future, holding surprises, and those little sparkles that are brief but are all what this journey is about. Hope you are fine, sending hugs. G ;-)
ReplyDeletehello little woolf! lots of lovely sharing! your life has just passed before my eyes! (love the 80's bananarama look!)

And it helps that you are expressing it.
Your healing is our healing.
And ours is yours.
