If you leave me....

Honestly, i had no idea who sang this song till today when google worked its magic for me...whoever heard of Emilia Rydberg??!!But that's not the point....she sings it so beautifully u can't help but bring that someone back to your thoughts and you miss them even more.
I can actually feel the words in her voice,...what i don't get is why she says its not a big big thing if she's left"its not a big big thing if you leave me" ????
Then i started thinking of just somehow and sometimes we try so hard to convince ourselves  of how some things can't affect how we feel when in reality we are doing just the opposite...for example with this song,why would she sing about missing someone with THE most heartfelt voice if it  "didn't matter"? But don't get me wrong,some feelings are best well kept hidden lest they bring you more misery...but for others don't try to cheat yourself out of them .Dealing with what's inside can be the biggest hurdle in life.Just a thought i had to share.Have a listen to the song maybe,just maybe you won't try to convince yourself  of how unimportant some things can be...
PS:Everytime i listen to this song,as much as it gets me all emotional,it reminds me why am so proud to be born in the 90's,when music was still music and it really was food to the soul...
Lyrics by Emilia
 I'm a big, big girl in a big, big worldIt's not a big, big thing if you leave meBut I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you muchMiss you much

I can see the first leaf fallingIt's all yellow and niceIt's so very cold outsideLike the way I'm feeling inside

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big worldIt's not a big, big thing if you leave meBut I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you muchMiss you much

Outside it's now rainingAnd tears are falling from my eyesWhy did it have to happenWhy did it all have to end

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big worldIt's not a big, big thing if you leave meBut I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you muchMiss you much

I have your arms around meWarm like fireBut when I open my eyesYou're gone

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big worldIt's not a big, big thing if you leave meBut I do, do feel that I do, do will miss you muchMiss you much

I'm a big, big girl in a big, big worldIt's not a big, big thing if you leave meBut I do feel I will miss you muchMiss you much

The Man That Made Me Believe In Impossibilities

How do I write about a man whose loud presence can’t be ignored? How do I begin to describe a man whose life should be written down in volumes of books, a man whose battles and achievements could literally make you wonder why you have never tried out that daredevil in you? A man whose blind faith and roaring spirit will leave you believing that anything is possible, as long as you just do it! I have never written down anything much about my father, mostly because words won’t do him justice and because you need to experience him to actually know who he is. He is tough, he is loud, he is sharp and witty, he never gives up and he is simply my papa. I know I will never get it right when it comes to the adjectives that could describe papa, mostly because he is more than words. He’s the man who’s taught me to live in the moment, because we can’t really trust the future. A man who’s taught me to be witty, because sometimes you have to outdo the book smarts to survive. A man who’s ta...

Big Girls Don't Cry

Nothing kills me more softly than saying goodbye. There's  nothing good in goodbye, and there never will be. It's my humble request to revise this English word. It's easy to say goodbye but the feeling that comes with it is a like a slow blow to the heart. I may  be exaggerating the description, but truth be told, saying goodbye is hard for me. Case in point, 8 years ago, I began a tradition that I thought would make this heart of mine  tough enough to withstand the pains of goodbye. I could never stand the thought of saying goodbye to my sister at the airport. I was always the one person left behind at home while everyone else escorted her. The sight  of seeing her climb up the boarding stairs made the goodbye more real!! She was leaving me!!! In retrospect, my actions didn't  make sense because I still said my  goodbye at home. Lucky for me, no one bothered with my decision to stay. BooHoo!! I'm all grown up now and I wish I  had been there ti...

It don't matter if you're black or white...

" I AM NOT MY HAIR" ...."It DON'T MATTER IF YOU'RE BLACK OR WHITE" these are the words to two songs that have been replaying in my head since last week's The Trend Show with Larry Madowo.Social media was a buzz with Vera's interview and her confident proclamation of her body being her business ( makes you think what she really meant by 'business') In all honesty, am no fan of hers, but the interview and all the comments made online about it, gave me a lot to reflect on which led to an interesting conversation with Rodney Onyango.His take on the matter gave me new perspective and i admit, it kept me from being too judgemental.For more of his ideas, check out his link The Spectator Someone must really hate being black.50million! I could think of 50 million ways to spend that cash other than changing the colour of my skin.Anyway, who am i to judge when it's clear that we have different priorities, needs, wants and skin preference...
