EDEN

Sometimes it pays off to make a spring cleaning in your life. After one of those cleanings and some lifestyle changes, a new white chair arrived in my cute little town home, just like I had been dreaming of for a long time. The product name happened to be Eden… and it felt like I had arrived in the Garden of Eden.

Eeden

Vahel ikka tasub elus inventuuri teha. Pärast ühte sellist kevadist suurpuhastust ja mõningaid elukorralduslikke muudatusi saabus mu nunnusse väikelinnakoju valge ripptool, milletaolisest olin ammu unistanud. Juhtumisi oli selle tootenimi Eden… ja tunne oligi, nagu oleks Eedeni aeda jõudnud.

DON'T WANT YOUR LIFE

For years, I sometimes saw a pink sticker with the text “Huiabella Fantastika does not want your life” on the wall near my home. The name had always fascinated me, probably because it sounded so original.

When I encountered it again one beautiful sunny spring morning, I realized that it was a sweet sign: although some of the exes of my exes have thought that I wanted their lives for myself, surprise-surprise - I didn't want your life at all, because my own is about a million times more fantastic, fierce, joyful, brighter, happier.

Ei taha teie elu

Juba aastaid ilutses mu pealinna kodu lähedal elektrikapil roosa kleeps tekstiga “Huiabella Fantastika ei taha teie elu”. See nimi oli mind alati võlunud, küllap seetõttu, et see kõlas nii ufolt, et tundsin sellega teatavat hingesugulust.

Ühel kaunil päikeselisel kevadhommikul sellega jälle kohtudes taipasin, et see ongi üks armas märk: ehkki mõne mu mehe eksnaine on arvanud, et ma tahtsin nende elu endale, siis üllatus-üllatus - ei tahtnud teie elu, üldse, sest mu enda oma on umbes miljon korda fantastilisem, ägedam, rõõmuküllasem, säravam, õnnelikum.
