O Lord of the Universe
listen to this missing son
who lost the thread and does not know where
and who can not even talk to You anymore.
I have a Christ that hangs above my pillow
and a serene Buddha on the bedside table
I know by heart the Canticle of the Creatures
great respect for the many suras
of the Koran; I’ve got also a talisman
who gave it to me my African brother
and I know you from somewhere reveal yourself
you’re not only behind the closed skies
and human representations about You
sometimes I see You in everything there
and around the world through my ups and downs
like Tom Thumb and leave behind some stones on my feet
not to forget the road I have traveled up to here
and now where do you go now
It leaves for another city.
I want to go home THE HOUSE WHERE IS?
The house where I can stay
I want to go home THE HOUSE WHERE IS?
The house where I can rest in peace with You.
O Lord of travelers
listen to this child immersed in the colors
who believes that the light is always one
relaxing on things and paint
red to blue to yellow life
shades of endless variety
listen me, save me
and the path after dark enlighten
I’m here around the city
and I try hard to interpret reality
looking on the bright side of things
looking for you in dangerous areas
on the edge of what’s Convention
of what is conformism every moralism yeahhh
and the world looks like me in its contradictions
I mirror in situations
and then I ask you to reveal more in what I see
I know you hear me even though sometimes do not believe it
I want to go home THE HOUSE WHERE IS?
The house where I can stay
I want to go home THE HOUSE WHERE IS?
The house where I can rest in peace with you.
O Lord of the morning knocking on the eyelids when I wake up
I turn and I turn over my couch
and then I let the world inside me
and into the world by up to night
barriers boundaries fears locks
Customs gates and dark faces
I arrived here through a thousand crossings
the men of women of eyes and voices
the cock crowing and the city wakes up
and a thought flies down to my family
and then spreads to the whole world
and then flies high into the sky
the sun the moon and Mars and Jupiter
Saturn with its rings and then the stars new
and elderly full memory
that with their light made history
glory to all the energy that’s in the air
This is my home HOME WHERE IS?
the house where I can bring peace
I want to go home the HOME WHERE IS?
This is my home HOME WHERE IS?
the house where I can be at peace with You…

Help us!!! L’estenuante ricerca di casa!! The exhausting search for a new home!

Saturday 6th of February

 

Ok gente, cercare una casa DECENTE e comoda sta diventando un’impresa titanica!!

La ricerca e’ continuata e sta continuando ininterrottamente! E’, o sembra sia, un’impresa proprio ardua! Ci sono case…ma i prezzi del rent settimanale sono altini per una casa decente che non sia in condivisione con almeno altre 3-4-5 persone!

Tante, troppe case di quelle che abbiamo visto per carita’ le piu’ economiche, non voglio dire che siano tutte cosi! sono al limite della decenza!! Moquette di 30 anni (penso con annessi cadaveri di animali) sporca, cucine allucinanti, ieri in una ti sollevava un pezzo di pavimento…

Io, noi ci chiediamo come case potenzialmente carine se non belle possano essere tenute in quelle condizioni e poi ti chiedono $350-400 a settimana! Ma porca miseria…! Siamo esigenti ok, perche’ cerchiamo casa vicino alle stazioni e ai supermercati (non avendo la macchina) e vogliamo almeno un balcone, una cucina degna di questo nome e…no non ci basta una kitchenette!

Abbiamo provato a guardare anche quelli che loro chiamano “Studio” che forse corrispondono ai nostri monolocali ma…1 fornello e mezzo lavandino in camera non ci possono bastare XD

Cosi’ cerchiamo ancora…abbiamo ovviamente alzato il nostro budget settimanale per avere qualcosa di discreto…e abbiamo visto che la situazione cambia..che dai $400 in su…ci sono anche case piu’ che decenti e “belle case”…appartamenti ovviamente, unit, case a forma di casa ovviamente non abbiamo neanche provato a cercarle 😀

Ne abbiamo adocchiate un paio che ci piacciono, parlando con l’agente ci ha detto che dobbiamo consegnare tutta la documentazione che richiedono e aspettare l’ok dell’owner…speriamo bene! non avendo un lavoro fisso puo’ essere complicato…confidiamo sulle referenze di Rahim, il proprietario della casa dove viviamo adesso, e sugli altri documenti che possiamo proporre….incrociamo le dita! E incrociatele anche voi per noi, please    

 

P.s.

Abbiamo iniziato un corso di inglese fatto da alcuni volontari di una chiesa anglicana, bella gente! Simpatica e gentile, molto alla mano e protesa verso l’altro..personalmente spero di continuare anche se e’ un po’ lontano da qui…potra’ essere una bella esperienza..interessante e divertente :)

P.p.s.

In questi giorni c’e’ il capodanno cinese!!!! E pare che qui sia molto sentito, ho letto di un saaaacco di eventi!! Andremo sicuramente a dare un’occhiata…intanto oggi mentre eravamo a Parramatta a fare due passi intorno casa abbiamo visto uno di quei leoni danzanti tipici con al seguito un sacco di gente che suonava..carino!!

Vi faremo sapere!!!
