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 good,the bad the ugly…the beautiful years of my life!

Happy new year!!!Two weeks down the line, and I still can’t predict how my 2013 will go down. I bet that’s the exciting part about new years( except from the annoying fact that I still   keep writing down the dates as 2012). Took me a while to write my first 2013 post,mostly cause I   had a cliché   idea of writing something about fresh starts,but I won’t take that turn.New year means a lot of things not just new beginnings, it’s also about rolling with the days as they come even when everything seems to stay the same, year in year out. Above all I can’t deny the fact that am alive, who knows what could have happened and nothing makes my heart more grateful   to my God for that blessing. So my first post this year is a lyrical piece written and   dedicated to my 2012 memories and 2013 ‘s unpredictable events. Two decades,that’s how long    I waited for you… If I could wait this long,then what could   possibly go wrong? I knew so...

19 years later..

The past three weeks of my life have been a dream come true...not because i have stumbled into a load of cash or become a celebrity overnight. I have done nothing that seems out of the ordinary, but this event has and will forever  change my life.I have  no idea how to put it all in writing cause sometimes it still feels unreal. That dream came when i arrived in the land of a thousand hills,my home country Rwanda! I packed my bags so fast(still in shock).I got  on a bus(still in shock)n i saw my home country..still in shock!! It happened so fast and time has gone so fast..after 19 years of being away from a country i can hardly call home,i finally got to see where i was from,its like knowing a part of yourself that you didn't get a chance to live out. I won't deny that i  missed home,sometimes it felt( and still does) like i was a foreigner in my own home,everyone speaks the same language that am  able to speak but when i try to speak,it sounds so foreign!I...

A million tears in a thousand hills

It's hard to forget something that turns your life upside down ,it's harder still  not to wonder how life would have been like growing up in the land of a thousand hills..Sometimes am grateful that i was too young to know the evil that was happening during the Rwandan Genocide..then at other times i keep picturing the lives torn apart and destroyed by the wave of tribal hate. Its during such  times that i realize that the impact of such an atrocity is far greater than remembering every single act committed. My memories for the 1994 Rwandan Genocide are like a blank page slowly being filled by the stories  am told..endless accounts of nights of terror and days of struggle.Some lived to tell their stories while others had nothing but a corpse to re-tell their 100 days of horror.The one thing that  has always disturbed my conscious was the question why?Why shed the blood?Why let innocent lives get tortured ?Why kill another just like you? It's like a story of t...
