To Alexei Romanov (1904-1918)
The good may die young, but their courage never dies

(*** share your thoughts with me :) ****)

Playing in the background is "Star" by the Russian singer Vitas, the lyrics translates as follows:

So many times I asked myself
Why I was born into this world and grew up
And why the clouds float and rains pour
You shouldn't expect anything for yourself in this world

I would fly up to the clouds but I have no wings
That starlight lures me from afar
But it's hard to reach the star though the goal is close at hand
And I don't know if I'll have enough strength for the throw


I'll wait just a little bit more
And then will get ready for my journey
Towards the Dream and Hope
Dont burn out my star, just wait!

How many paths do I have to go by?
How many peaks should I conquer to find my own self?
How long should I keep falling from the cliff?
How many times should I start from the beginning and is there any sense to it?

I'll wait just a little bit more
And then will get ready for my journey
Towards the Dream and Hope
Dont burn out my star, just wait!
