The Cuckoo Clocks: Before The Dawn
Published by Ekaterina
I was born in Moscow but since then lived in 3 other countries, in two of them twice (Belgium and The Netherlands) and speak 4 languages fluently. French, Russian, English and Dutch. I did my studies in Brussels, and then in Amsterdam where I also worked as a financial analyst of banks and portfolio manager. It was in Amsterdam that I experienced magic in its absolutely amazing manifestations. I moved later to Brussels again, where I worked as a recruiter, before moving to the UK where I obtained a PhD bursary. I teach media studies, and I write, and currently I live in Leeuwarden, in the Netherlands. I love books, nature, interesting cafes, cats, nice wine, theater and dancing, and looking at manifestations of weirdness around me, which sometimes amazes me, but more often, makes me sad because it is stigmatised. Different cultures and ways of life appeal to me. I am also a seeker, a seeker of the spiritual truth where I often struggled with my Christian faith, but always come back to it, feeling the presence of God with all my heart, and having an absolute love for Jesus, our Lord and Savior. My blog is dedicated to exploring magic, madness, Russia and the unknown, with the ultimate goal to empower beautiful souls. I was diagnosed as bipolar at some point, and had experience in psychiatric hospitals, and my ultimate goal is to show others that beautiful life is possible, despite the damaging diagnosis, the label, the stigma.

This is a deep lyric and an interesting video.
If you don’t know the band, the video is confusing at first; who are these people?
Which part of the lyric felt most important to you?
For me it was: Give me the strength to be myself again!
This is a fundamental message from from my teacher.

It’s a Sheffield based band and I was at their concert, it’s even more amazing life!
I agree with your choice of most powerful lyrics from this song.
For me, it’s also just Sheffield and what I miss in the old days gone by.
But past is the past. Their music helps me though in the difficult times.
All these people come from Sheffield.

Oh thank you! … Attachments to old places… we all deal with such issues.
I am reading a new book by Dena Merriam that deals extensively with old attachments to people. Past life attachments. This dynamic is very interesting to me. It reminds me of some friendships I made this lifetime. Very powerful emotions there!
