Why?

med_cat: (Hourglass)
We can never know.
He answered me like the stillness of a star
That silences us asking.
No, Sarah, no:
We are and that is all our answer.
We are and what we can is suffer.
But...
         what suffers loves.
                                         And love
Will live its suffering again,
Risk its own defeat again,
Endure the loss of everything again
And yet again and yet again
In doubt, in dread, in ignorance, unanswered,
Over and over, with the dark before,
The dark behind it...and still live....still love.

(From Archibald MacLeish's J.B.)

Автор: Юлия Рублёва Из выпуска от 18-02-2010 рассылки «Очаровательные новости журнала "ЛюбимаЯ"» --original author is Julia Rubleva.

Дорогое Мироздание!

Пишет тебе Маша Ц. из г. Москва. Я очень-очень хочу быть счастливой! Дай мне, пожалуйста, мужа любимого и любящего, и ребенка от него, мальчика, а я, так уж и быть, тогда не перейду на новую работу, где больше платят и удобнее ездить. с ув., Маша.

 

Dear Providence!

 

My name is Masha C. from Moscow and I am writing to you.  I want to be happy very very much! Please grant me a loving and beloved husband, and a child from him, a boy, and then, I’ll make a concession too—I won’t accept a new job which is better paid and an easier commute.

Respectfully yours,

Masha

Дорогая Маша! Честно говоря, я почесало в затылке, когда увидело строчки про работу. Даже не знаю, что сказать. Маша, ты вполне можешь переходить на новую работу, а я пока поищу для тебя мужа. Удачи! Твое Мрзд.

 

Dear Masha! Frankly, I scratched my head when I saw what you wrote about your job.  Don’t even know what to say. Masha, you can accept the new job and I’ll look for a husband for you in the meanwhile.  Best of luck! Yours, Providence.
