long time no see
Hi there. It's been a loooong while since I haven't done any blog posting. But I've been thinking here and then I should restart doing so, and most probably in English as then more people could read what's going on. It'll probably take some time until I create a style and manner to keep the posts more exciting than usual daily life stories.

Well.. what I've been recently thinking about and especially the last few hours.. What is the role of machine dance in my life? Since I injured my back in middle August, I haven't really been able to play seriously (though I tried here and then, but moved disks don't heal as easy, at least they didn't for me) so it was a scary 6 month break during which I also did not follow the new custom songs, new records or anything. I played about 2 weeks ago and hopefully I have the time to go again this weekend.

But when I played.. and today I put some songs on PC.. To others it is a random song that I step to, but to me.. GOD! Like I said, I don't follow any of the new songs, so all the customs I have are from last summer. And each song I take reminds of a particular moment, day, event, person or thought that I have had while playing this song. And it is so great to have such a reminder for the most amazing summer I have had so far, but then on the other side it made me sad, because I realize it is passed and over and will never be the same.

How long will the community last? How long will the events be held? How long will I be able to stay in touch with all of the players? When we come together it is such a fun time, but it's impossible to repeat it, because it's unreal to meet up with all of you again. Yes, Europe isn't as big as we sometimes think, but no matter how much we would want it, we can't stay in past, we have to move on. And this is the balance that I am trying to find - being connected with the best moments from the past, yet living for today and tomorrow and being open for new impressions over and over.

But again, the role of machine dance in my life.. I started playing when I was 8 years old. In summer that's going to be 10 years... I've met so many people during this period of time and been through so many events while still playing.. It's just crazy to realize......

There's so much to tell, but it's hard to pull out the main idea what I want to share, because it's all so related to my life.. perhaps this story is to be continued.
If you've made it this far, thanks for reading and let me know if it made any sense and let me know what's missing ;)
