This leap ahead


Picture by Ale Perez

"When nothing else subsists from the past, after the people are dead, after the things are broken and scattered· the smell and taste of things remain poised a long time, like souls· bearing resiliently, on tiny and almost impalpable drops of their essence, the immense edifice of memory" -Marcel Proust "The Remembrance of Things Past"

Evoking powerful memories. For some it is pictures, or sounds, or smells. For me it is a combination of all those things. We all have something that triggers the snapshots that exist in our head. Moments in time that we may love.
"What seems to happen is that a piece of familiar music serves as a soundtrack for a mental movie that starts playing in our head."

I heard this song yesterday and it took me back when I was so excited of this new love I was feeling, like a child that is having her first platonic love, all the rush of blood in your heart, all the emotion of seeing that person once again. That man made me mad in love. <3

So here is the song that was part of the soundtrack of those days, we'll New Order was the soundtrack of those days.
Who is this man
that follows me
this blue eyed boy
who wants to be
This worthy cause
of human kind
this pawn set up by time
Like a bright light on the horizon
shining so bright, he'll get you flying
he'll drive you away, he'll drive you insane
but then he'll remove all of your pain
Like a bright light on the horizon
shining so bright, he'll get you flying
he'll get you flying, he'll get you flying
he'll get you flying, flying, flying
This open book
yet to be read
this second look
this leap ahead
The hope i held inside
with you, was kept alive
Like a bright light on the horizon
shining so bright, he'll get you flying
he'll drive you away, he'll drive you insane
but then he'll remove all of your pain
Like a bright light on the horizon
shining so bright, he'll get you flying
he'll get you flying, he'll get you flying
he'll get you flying, flying, flying
We're here to stay
we're here to stay
