Journey

Hello, I'm feeling mellow for some unknown (or ignored) reasons.
Have you ever tried repeating one suicidal-ballad song for like a... whole week?
Well, it finally took its toll on me :|

I've been listening intensively of Lambsey's song "Dear Friend" ever since... I had a nostalgic route to my memory lane.
Lambsey is a Japanese duo group I encounter while watching a random Japanese TV commercial. It's sickly good, yet frustratingly hard to find a reliable download link :|
If you're interested, I suggest you search Lambsey or ラムジ. Do I sound like I promote them? Well, they should be recognize more, so yes I am promoting them.

Well, then, I finally able to download their album 好きだから or Suki Dakara (Because I love you).
"Dear Friend" is a coupling song in this album.
FYI, I love beautiful lyrics. Solely because I am fascinated by words.
I'm more a lyric-type rather than a melody-type of person. Did I mention I love the movie "Music and Lyrics"? Well, now you know :)

Back to Lambsey, "Dear Friend" have a excruciating stuck-my-heart-with-lightning lyrics.
Not like I experiencing the exact lyrical situation, no. But some, yeah sorta.

I'll quote some of those lyrics I found at JPOP ASIA with my amateur translation:

元気に過ごしてるかな? 仕事頑張ってるかな?
I wonder if you're living well? I wonder if you work hard at your work?
あなたは今どんな人に 愛されてるかな?
I wonder what kind of person loved you right now?

誰が悪い訳でもなく 別れは運命の仕業でした
どの道を… 選んでも…
It's not anyone's fault, separation is the work of Fate.
No matter which path we choose.

心から想うよ あなたを愛していたかった
From my heart, I had loved you sincerely.
Hello, dear my best 悔んでも
あなたはわたしの道程なんだね
Hello, dear my best, though I hate to admit it
you are my journey.

......okay, I know. It's quite.... mellow.
But it is beautiful.
The sense of acceptance and a step to move on. It's not an easy thing to do.
'A journey' or maybe 'a part of my journey' maybe what makes me feel.... refresh.
Not to be held back on some part of the road, but to think that all the pain was not wasted. Its a necessary trip toward somewhere, a journey.

It reminds me of my favourite children book about the 'journey', maybe I'll write about it later.
In the end, we have to keep moving forward, says Mr. Robinson in Disney's 'Meet the Robinsons' :)

Well, then, tomorrow is Ramadhan! A fasting Holy month! :)
Be grateful, be wise, explore your journey in life! :)
