Alone
I am sitting in a cafe with a book in my hand.
I see everything, and I can do everything
But no one taught me to know you.
Perhaps that is why I am crying alone.

The unconfessed confusion of the Book-learned
Один
Я сижу в кафе книга в руке.
Я вижу все, я все умею,
А никто же меня не учил знать тебя.
Возможно, поэтому я плачу один.

Sam
Siedzę w kawiarni z książką w ręku.
Widzę wszystko, mogę wszystko
Ale nikt mnie nie nauczył poznać ciebie.
Być może dlatego płaczę sam.

So much said, in so few words. Well done!
I see the “you” as speaking of God. Until we know Him, it doesn’t matter what else we can do, our lives are going to have a God-shaped void.

An unrelated question – does Finnish bear some resemblance to Russian in characters and words? Long long time back in school we learnt some basic Russian for a few weeks. Though I really don’t remember much now, your characters seem somewhat familiar.

Thank you for commenting.
Finnish belongs to the Finno-Ugric family of languages. It is not even a member of Indo-European languages, like Russian and English. We have Latin letters.
Finns or Finnish people (Finnish: suomalaiset) are a Finnic ethnic group native to Finland.
Finns are traditionally divided into smaller regional groups that span several countries adjacent to Finland, both those who are native to these countries as well as those who have resettled. Also, some of these may be classified as separate ethnic groups, rather than subgroups of Finns. These include the Kvens and Forest Finns in Norway, the Tornedalians in Sweden, and the Ingrian Finns in Russia.
I hope this gives you the idea. My family comes from Karelia since 1945 belonged to Russian. Read more about Karelia, the heart of historic Finland.

Lovely blog visit with you today and impressive in several languages. My husband and I visited Helsinki last month and loved the experience. We now enjoy sea buckthorn juice each morning and lingonberries. All the boats on the water were beautiful. Thanks.

Thank you for visiting and commenting. I see that you have studied Germany and taught it as well. So it is not a surprise that you mentioned languages. Yes, Finland is rich in berries. I keep house 750 kilometers north of Helsinki where I lived 25 years before moved here in Southern Lapland. Here we have a lot of cloudberries.
All the best to you and your loved ones 🙂 🐻 ❤ 🐻 🙂

Bloggers teach me something new daily. Cloudberries sound tasty. We are trying to grow a few of the different ones we tried in Finland. I love languages and cultures and Lapland sounds lovely as well. Yes, I have Ph.D. in German and taught almost 50 years including as a Fulbright teacher twice in Germany. Travel is the best way to educate a person. Learning languages, countries and cultures helps us become more tolerant individuals. How much daylight do you get in winter? Two hours or less? We average about 7 months of winter with almost 2 meters of snow in Upstate New York. It makes me wonder if we might be able to try cloudberries in a garden area which seems constantly wet. I joke all the time that it is our rice paddy. Thank you for the visit and comment and come visit again!

Thank you for the information on your life and country.
The Polar Night in Finland starts a bit before Sodankylä. Here in Tornio, our shortest day lasts 2 hours and 55 minutes (21.12.19).
I wish all the best to you and your loved ones.

How fascinating. Do you still do sports outdoors during the dark winters or sit inside before a fireplace and play board games or read? And your longest day lasts? Best to you and yours.

I ordered some cloudberry preserves and some cloudberry powder to get a taste. Preserves are tasty and sweeter than I thought. They were made in Sweden and shipped via Amazon. Imagine what can be done today with technology. The world has become smaller. Thank you for telling me about those berries. Maybe I can actually taste some fresh!
