Çay ve Aşk #cay #aşk #tea #love #cayveask #tea&love


ÇAY VE AŞK


Şuan çok utanıyorum..Şimdi ben size uykularımı kaçıran,başım ağrıdığında bile onun varlığına sığındığım,ellerimden tutunca sıcaklığını bırakmak istemediğim,içime dolunca yüreğimi ısıtan,en vefalı ve yıllardır beni hiç terk etmeyen sevgilimi onunla olan maceralarımı nasıl anlatayım?
Çay ve ben..Biz çok eski,çocukluk aşkıyız onunla..Bazen düşünüyorum bu aşkın aramızda nasıl doğduğunu.. Dedemler Dersim in heybetli Munzur dağları eteğinde, dağdan köpük köpük akan Munzur suyunun kenarında ki masal köyü denilebilecek bir doğanın içinde yaşıyorlar. Dönüp-dolaşıp Köy Ensitülü dedemin anneannemle her akşam törensel olarak hazırladıkları kekli-börekli ya da hafif köy kahvaltılı bazı akşamlar Munzur suyu kenarında bazen de köyün tam ortasındaki evlerinin balkonunda demliklerce içilen 5 çayları benim çayla olan bu aşkımın sebebi diye düşünüyorum..Eğer çaylar evdeki balkonda içiliyorsa sofraya her zaman iki- üç bardak fazla konur..Evin önünden tarladan ya da hayvanları otlatmaktan gelen köylülerin evimizin önünde beş on dakika durup soluklandıklarında bir çay molası verdikleri ve günün kritiğini yaptıkları köy kahvesi,köy odası alanıdır adeta burası…Artık buradaki sohbetlerde,bir demlik çay biter,bir daha demlenir,o da biter tekrar demlenir derken bir bakarız ki gün batmış ve saatler akıp gitmiştir..
Yok eğer 5 çayı evin balkonunda değil de bu kez de Munzur suyu kenarında içilecekse; dedem bir kolunun altına şezlongunu diğerine de piknik sepetini alır; Anneannem de 5 şişle elinde desenli çoraplar örerek yürüyüş halinde oturacağımız su kenarındaki ağaçların altına gideriz..Burada dedem gençlik anılarını anlatır,bir yandan piknik tüpünde kaynayan demlenmiş çay Munzur suyunun insanı hipnotize eden sesi ve serinliğinde çaylar yudumlanırdı…
Bir de çay benim köyümde zengin olmayan yemek kültürü ve ekonomik sıkıntının kurtarıcısı ve can simididir..Her öğünde ve misafir geldiğinde mutlak çay ve kahvaltı vardır..Bunları düşününce belki de çaya yakınlığımın sebebi oldu bu etkenler diyorum..

Ünlü ozanımız Aşık Veysel Şatıroğlu sevdiğine diyor ya;
“Benim sana verebileceğim çok bir şeyim yok aslında..
Yol var gidersen,
Ben var seversen,
Çay var içersen.”

Çayla buluşmak için hiç randevulaşmayız.. Çünkü gün içinde,duruma göre her an her yerde buluşma yerimiz ve belli bir saatimiz yoktur bizim..Canımız ne zaman isterse,beynen konuşuruz ve o an buluşuruz zaten..Bunun için birbirimize buluşma randevusu vermeyiz..
Sabahları kahvaltımın vazgeçilmezi, iş yerimde masamın vazgeçilmezi çay fincanım,yemek üzerine içtiğim rahatlatıcı kas gevşeticim,arkadaşlarımla buluşmamdaki doyumsuz sohbetlerin kahramanı,soğuk kış günlerinde üşüyerek eve geldiğimde içimi ısıtan vefalı dost,vapurda İstanbul a ve Adalara giderken Simit,peynir ve çay la İstanbul tablosudur benim için…Eğer o gün ki telaşta akşam 5 çayı içmediysem ya da kahvaltıda çay yerine başka bir içecek tercih etmişsem,baş ağrımın nedenidir çaysızlık ve o an ki ilacımdır çay…
Vel hasılı,Çay kırk yıllık yaşımda beni hiç terk etmeyen en vefalı arkadaşım,dostum,sevgilim ve yol arkadaşımdır…

Comment by Özlem Gündoğan:

"Bu gece ilginçtir arkadaşlarım sırayla Çay a olan sevgilerini anlatan paylaşımlar yapınca bende bu kervana; Mario Levi hocamın Yaratıcı Yazarlık dersinde AA ortalamayla aldığım ders notlarımdan birini dedemle köyümüzde CAY üzerine yazmıştım..Biraz uzun olmakla beraber paylaşmak istedim..Bu da benim şuan hayatta olmayan,her yıl köye gittiğimde dedeme olan hasretimle yaşadığım hatıralarım ve Çay a olan aşkımdır..!"


  • Ozlem Gundogan Onurlandırdın beni..Her zaman ki gibi çok incesin Berkay cım..Bu yazıyı yazarken o günlerimin içine girdim adeta bir de sınıfta okurken gözyaşlarına boğuldum...Dedemin vefatından sonra her köye gidişimde önce köyün girişindeki mezarlığa onun ziyaretine gidiyorum artık,sonra köye giriyorum.. Sanki önce onu görmeden köye girersem ona haksızlık ya da ihmal ederim hissine kapılıyorum. O çay saatleri,suyun kenarında oturup yaptıgımız sohbetler aklıma gelince,çok kötü oluyorum,öksüz kalmış gibi hissediyorum... Mario hoca da Çay üzerine bir şeyler anlatın deyince bu yazı çıktı ortaya....

    Berkay Erden Çok güzel bir yazı olmuş. Öylece unutmak istemedim.

    Berkay Erden Onlar sevgiyi, saygıyla ve şafkatle yaşamasını bilmişler. Onların birbirlerine sevgilerini göstermesi için kendi sözlerinden, kendi el emeklerinden ve birbirlerine olan saygılarından başka hiçbir şeye ihtiyaçları yokmuş.

    Ozlem Gundogan O kadar doğru dedin ki ...! Ben bu yaşıma kadar gördüğüm TEK örnek evlilik dedem ve nenemin ki ( Anneannemin ) Dedem çok hastalık yasadı ama nenem onu hiç bırakmadı..Dedemin eğitmenliğinin ilk yıllarında çok yokluk çekmişler o günün koşullarına çok zıt bir şey yapıp nenem Erzincan merkezde bir şehir otelinde temizlik görevlisi olarak çalışıp emekli oldu..Bir kez olsun birbirlerini incitecek bir söz duymadım ağızlarından....Bu çay sohbetlerini anlatmaya günler yetmez Berkay,çok özlüyorum çoook....

    Berkay Erden Neden üzülüyorsun ki. Harika anılar bırakmışlar geride ve hala yaşıyorlar senle. İnsan böyle güzel anlar yaşayınca hayatın güzelliklerini, lezzetini anlıyor ancak. Bu lezzet ağzında, yüreğinde olmadan sevgi olur mu? Bu lezzeti sana veren insanlar ölmezler. İşte sen güzel sözlerinle onları ölümsüz yaptın. Belki yarın ufak bir hikayeyle, ufak bir kitapla onlara olan saygını daha da ileri bir noktaya taşıyacaksın.

    Ozlem Gundogan Benim ki hasret,tıpkı adımı da koyan dedemin bende yarattığı Özlem sadece.. Haklısın..



Özgür Bacaksız
yani öyle zaman oluyordu ki küçük bir ekmeği bile üç, dört parçaya bölüyorduk, ekmeğin keyfi ve tadı öyle daha çok çıkıyordu... büyük parçalar tatmin etmezdi bizi.. anne elinin değdiği her şey kudretliydi, candı, emekti... ekmeği öyle bir paylaştırırdı ki annem mübarek sanki cetvelle ölçüp koparıyordu, herkese eşit parça düşüyordu, hak geçmezdi kimseye. şimdi her şeyin tek kişiliği var, tek kişilik hayatlar, parçalar.. hayatı parçalara ayırmayı unuttuk, tadı da kaçtı tüm lezzetlerin... büyük parçaların altındayız, eziliyoruz... bana o üçe böldüğümüz ekmekli günlerin tadını verecek lezzet-i ikram yok, ahey...


Ozlem Gundogan Ama yine de şanslıyız ki; o 3 e bölünmüş ekmekli günleri yaşayabildik..Yoksa biz de bu tadın farkını ve ayrıcalığını hiç bilmeyecektik..! İyi ki yaşamısız bunları...

Berkay Erden At arabalı, parke caddelerimiz vardı. Gece sokak aralarından çocuk sesleri, bizim seslerimiz yükselirdi. Tüm mahalle oynardık her oyunu. Saklanan kız, erkek çocuklar bir abisi, ablası üst üste dizili 9 taş devrilsinde oyunu kazanmış olsunlar diye beklerlerdi. Ali'nin annesi seslense. Pelin'de burada diye hep bir ağızdan bağırırdık. O zamanlar rüzgar sıcak eserdi. Saklandığımız tek şey saklambaç'taki ebeydi.

‪#‎chinesenewyear‬ ‪#‎新年快樂‬ !!

‪#‎chinesenewyear‬ ‪#‎新年快樂‬ !!




"This year is the Year of the Horse, which is said to bring prosperity and wealth. Chinese New Year is celebrated on the first day of the Chinese calendar, and this year it will fall on 31 January.
The doodle features an image of a girl on a rocking horse and a boy holding fire crackers and Chinese lanterns.
Celebrations usually begin on Chinese New Year's Eve, signalling the end of the Year of the Snake. The lunar calendar is based upon the cycles of the moon and has 12 animals, one to represent each year of the lunisolar cycle.
At Chinese New Year people traditionally wear red clothes and give children "lucky money" contained in red envelopes. The colour red symbolises fire to drive away bad luck.
To mark the holiday families typically reunite and gather at each other's homes to celebrate and eat together. It is also tradition for households to thoroughly cleanse the house to sweep away ill fortune and make way for good luck, to decorate windows and doors with red paper-cuts and to light firecrackers.
Festivities often continue until the Lantern Festival, held on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Red paper lanterns are hung across houses and in streets. The highlight of this festival is often considered to be the dragon dance. The dragon is typically made of silk, paper, and bambooand is held aloft as people take it through the streets.
The holiday is centuries old and is celebrated across mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and other Asian countries.
Those born in the Year of the Horse are believed to be cheerful, skillful with money, perceptive and witty. Famous people born in this year include actress Halle Berry, Rembrandt and singer Aretha Franklin."

Here's what you need to know:

What is Chinese New Year?
New Year is one of China's oldest festivals. It marks the beginning of a new year and a new agricultural season, and is considered a time for loved ones to reunite and take part in traditions designed to bring good fortune for the next 12 months.
The noise and colour come from one of the legends associated with the celebrations - that of the beast Nian, a monster which would appear at the end of every year and attack people. Villagers worked out that loud noise, bright lights and the colour red kept Nian at bay, and so the seeds of Chinese New Year celebrations were sown.

Which animal represents 2014?

The Chinese year is linked directly to the Chinese Zodiac – a list of 12 animals representing different years and 2014 will be the year of the horse. It is believed that someone born in a particular year will share similar attributes to the animal with which that year is associated.

In China, the familiar Gregorian calendar is used for day-to-day life. But Chinese calendardates continue to be used to mark traditional holidays such as the new year and the fall moon festival. It’s also used astrologically to select favorable dates for weddings and other special events.
The Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar, in other words, a combination of solar and lunar calendars. It has a long history spanning several Chinese dynastic rules from as far back as the Shang Dynasty around fourteenth century B.C.. There are several different symbolic cycles within the calendar, used in Chinese astrology, that make it an intricate and complex measure of time.
A month in the Chinese calendar spans a single lunar cycle. The first day of the month begins during the new moon, when no sunlight falls on the lunar hemisphere that faces the Earth. A lunar cycle, on average, lasts 29.5 days, so a lunar month can last 29 or 30 days. Usually, there are 12 lunar months in a Chinese calendar year. In order to catch up with the solar calendar, which averages 365.25 days in a year, an extra month is added to the Chinese calendar every two or three years. As a result, Chinese New Year falls on different dates each year (in the Gregorian calendar) between January 21 and February 21.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Walter Mitty, Ben Stiller, Shirley Maclaine, Sean Penn, Conan O'Brien, Andy Richter

Walter Mitty

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Mitty
"Walter Mitty is a fictional character in James Thurber's short story "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", first published in The New Yorkeron March 18, 1939, and in book form in My World and Welcome to It in 1942. Thurber loosely based the character on his friend, Walter Mithoff.[1] It was made into a film in 1947, with a remake directed by and starring Ben Stiller released in 2013."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Life_of_Walter_Mitty
""The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" (1939) is a short story by James Thurber. The most famous of Thurber's stories,[1] it first appeared in The New Yorker on March 18, 1939, and was first collected in his book My World and Welcome to It (Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1942).[2] It has since been reprinted in James Thurber: Writings and Drawings (The Library of America, 1996, ISBN 1-883011-22-1), and is one of the most frequently anthologized short stories in American literature.[3] The story is considered one of Thurber's "acknowledged masterpieces".[4] It was made into a 1947 movie of the same name, with Danny Kaye in the title role, though the movie is very different from the original story. It was also adapted into a 2013 film, which is again very different from the original.
The name Walter Mitty and the derivative word "Mittyesque"[5] have entered the English language, denoting an ineffectual person who spends more time in heroic daydreams than paying attention to the real world, or more seriously, one who intentionally attempts to mislead or convince others that he is something that he is not. In military circles, this usually refers to people who try to fake an impressive career.[6]" more

"Walter Mitty (Ben Stiller) is a negative assets manager (photographs) at Life magazine who frequently daydreams of fantastic adventures, and has a crush on his coworker Cheryl (Kristen Wiig). Photojournalist Sean O'Connell (Sean Penn), who works closely with Mitty concerning his submissions, has sent him a package containing his latest negatives and a wallet as a gift in appreciation of Walter's excellent work. Furthermore, that package contains a special photograph, negative 25, that he says in writing captures the "Quintessence" of Life and that it should be used for the cover of the magazine's final print issue as it converts to online status. Unfortunately, that specific negative is missing from the package and Mitty is forced to stall the obnoxious corporate transition manager Ted Hendricks (Adam Scott) handling the downsizing. Using the other negatives as clues, Mitty figures out that O'Connell is in Greenland and flies there to try and find him."

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is not a comedy, it’s a tearjerker sappy dramedy and it’s a bad idea because drama is clearly not Stiller’s forte. The second film adaptation of the short story of the same name and hitting screens after decades of development hell, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is visually spectacular, but it doesn’t have a heart or a brain in its script to turn it into a memorable film. Stiller casts himself in the role of Mitty, an employee of Life magazine who frequently blacks out and daydreams about all kinds of stuff. On that front the movie is fun — the cutaways from reality to dream are seamless and moderately funny. It’s when the film tries to sentimentalize Mitty’s ‘problem’ and tries to make a statement about ‘quitting your job and living the dream’ that it fails to find footing. - See more at: http://www.mid-day.com/articles/movie-review-the-secret-life-of-walter-mitty/15013018#sthash.iuFvW1cg.dpuf

Buzkashi or Kokpar is the Central Asian sport in which horse-mounted players attempt to drag a goat carcass toward a goal. Traditionally, games could last for several days, but in its more regulated tournament version also has a limited match time.

Warlords

"Alas, the film itself packs all the emotional wallop of a schmaltzy Hallmark card, whereas it conveys its message - to embrace new experiences - with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer. The only genuinely affecting relationship is between Mitty and his mother (Shirley Maclaine), whose cake, in one particularly contrived scene, he offers to a group of Afghan warlords." more

Uzun süredir izlediğim en etkileyici filmlerden bir tanesiydi. Özellikle Sean Penn in "Kar Leoparı"nı fotoğrafladığı sahne çok etkileyiciydi.
Fotoğraf çekmekteki amaç ardı sıra kareleri çekmek değildir. Sean Penn, fotoğrafı çekmedi. O anı yaşadı. İzleyince daha iyi anlayacaksınız.
O sahne her fotoğraf kursuna başlayanın ezberinde tutması gereken bölüm.
ayrıca filmin müzikleri çok iyi.

Not: Filmdeki bazı hatalar filmin anlatımının önüne geçerse şunları fark edeceksiniz.
Walter parası olmadığı için annesinin pianosunu satıyor. Fakat Nerdeyse dünyanın yarısını dolaşıyor. Filmin başında da zaten parasını zor denkleştirdiğini gösteren ödemelerini görüyoruz.
Bunun gibi birçok ayrıntıyı göz ardı ederseniz güzel, dingin bir film izlemiş olursunuz.

Eyjafjallajokull - Active Iceland Volcano #waltermitty

Eyjafjallajokull - Active Iceland Volcano:



'via Blog this'



#waltermitty

"Eyjafjallajokull (63°38′N 19°36′W; Area 100 km2 /40 sq mi, Summit Elevation: 1666 m 5,466 feet; Volcano Type: Stratovolcano; location: Southern Iceland) (also known as Eyjafjöll) is located west of Katla volcano. Eyjafjallajökull consists of an E-W-trending, elongated ice-covered stratovolcano with a 2.5-km-wide summit caldera. Fissure-fed lava flows occur on both the eastern and western flanks of the volcano, but are more prominent on the western side. Although the 1666-m-high volcano has erupted during historical time, it has been less active than other volcanoes of Iceland's eastern volcanic zone, and relatively few Holocene lava flows are known. An intrusion beneath the south flank from July-December 1999 was accompanied by increased seismic activity and was constrained by tilt measurements, GPS-geodesy and InSAR. The last historical eruption of Eyjafjallajökull prior to an eruption in 2010 produced intermediate-to-silicic tephra from the central caldera during December 1821 to January 1823." for more

Nejat İşler #nejatisler

Nejat İşler

Türkiye de ölmek lazım övülmek için. Hayatınızda duymadığınız güzel sözlerin size söylenmesi için. Nejat İşler'in dizilerden atılmasını isteyenler. Şimdi sevgi kelebeği olmuşlar. Nejat İşler'e alkolik diyenler şimdi onu melek gibi anlatıyorlar. Nejat İşler'e kadın düşmanı diyenler. Has erkek diye yazıyor şimdi. [(Politika=Sahtekarlık=Toplum) olmuş :D] Ben sarhoşken de oyunculuğunu severdim. Kadın dövdüğünde de oyunculuğunu severdim. Sevgili değiştirdiğinde de oyunculuğunu severdim. Bir işi iyi yapmak önemlidir. İşi iyi yapanı kötülemek için umutsuz yollara baş vurmaksa sadece kıskançlıktır. Keşke her birinin suratına çarpacak kapılar olsa yalan yere ağıt yakanların.

The Book Thief review: Read between the lines

"The book by Australian writer Markus Zusak has sold 8 million copies. The writer's parents came to Australia as German migrants in the 1950s. Zusak's mother, Lisa, is German; his father, Helmut, Austrian. The heroine of this book is Liesel, who is 10 in 1939, as the book opens. Zusak, now 38, wrote the book in his late 20s. He has said his parents were very young during the war, but it is clear that the book is both a tribute to, and a reflection of, their experiences and memories, however richly reimagined. A labour of love, in fact."

The Book Thief: Movie Review
"The Book Thief is an emotionally flat piece, despite the deliberately emotive ideas and the potential for manipulation. Yet, despite Nelisse's beautifully fragile yet confident tone, it never fires on any real level, leaving you lamenting how empty the pay off is as the horror hits home.

It's a shame because the attention to period detail is impressive and initially oppressive, but the maudlin tones of the film never really lift or give you the push to connect and care about these characters as childhood innocence and naivete are shattered asunder in an entirely bloodless Nazi Germany."

The Book Thief: Geoffrey Rush chats about his new film’s German setting
"Movie execs made the decision to shoot the Brian Percival directed film in the same location that Roman Polanski shot The Pianist and Quentin Tarantino filmed Inglourious Basterds – at the Babelsberg Film Studio in Germany. The area of Potsdam contains the oldest large-scale film studio in the world, and has been producing films since 1912. With directors such as Fritz Lang and Alfred Hitchcock on the books, the place holds great prestige. It’s also a good pull for tourists, who can take a behind the scenes look at the sets, make up studios and props department."

we seek joy: about

we seek joy: about: "Hello! I'm N'tima! I am a twenty-one year old wife and new mama. Here I document my journey through motherhood, embracing the magic mess of it all. I wear my new sleepy eyes, and overgrown heart with pride.

I met my husband, the giant force behind my optimism, when we were kids living in Okinawa, Japan. Since then, I graduated Culinary School, he joined the air force, we wed in snowy Salt Lake City, started our life together in the rolling Northern California hills, created a tiny beauty, and are preparing to trek across the world this year to live, again, in our beloved Japan.

I believe in God, family, soul food, good people, seeking the joy in the every day, and in the power of self love.

Thank you for reading along!
