February 19 l`art de vivreUne copine rigolait en disant on bossait sur les 3 As cette annees, hmm, jai ouble quand je lui ai parle des 3 As, mais apres la grippe si grave du dernier jour qui me frappe pour la 2eme fois dans la vie, je me suis posee une question, pourkoi il manque la sante dans les 3As? sans la bonne sante, rien ne garantie... et jai recemment tombe sur un article simple,mais il me plait enormement. La vie est en reel si simple que ca.
L`art de vivre
L`art de vivre se resume a savoir quand s`accrocher et quand lacher prise. La vie, en effet, est un phenomene paradoxal: elle nous force a nous attacher a tous ses dons, et dans le meme temps, elle en organise l`abandon final. Les rabbins de la vieille ecole vous le diront<< L`homme vient au monde les poings serres, mais il meurt la main ouverte.>>
C`est vrai qu`il faut s`accrocher, car la vie est quelque chose de merveilleux; sa beaute eclaire tout sur cette terre. Nous le savons bien, mais trop souvent nous ne prenons conscience de cette verite que losque nous nous tournons vers le passe et realisons tout a coup que ce qui a ete ne sera jamais plus.
Nous nous rappelons la beaute quand elle s`est fanee, l`amour quand il s`est eteint. Mais plus douloureux encore est le souvenir de la beaute que nous n`avons pas su voir en fleur, de l`amour que nous avons ignore lorsque`il etait offert.
Cette verite, je l`ai reapprise recemment. A la suite d`une crise cardiaque, j`ai ete hospitalise plusieurs jours dans un service de soins intensifs, un endroit pas bien gai. Un matin ou je devais subir des examens a l`autre bout de l`hopital, on m`a fait traverser la cour sur un brancard. Au sortir du batiment, la lumiere du soleil m`a frappe, tout simplement. Juste la lumiere du soleil. Mais elle etait si belle, si rechauffante, si eclatante!
J`ai regarde autour de moi pour voir si d`autre gens goutaient comme moi cette clarte doree, mais tout le monde vaquait a ses occupations, les yeux rives au sol. Alors j`ai compris que, moi aussi, j`etais reste bien souvent indifferent a la magnificence des jours, l`esprit trop occupe par de menus soucis, des preoccupations mesquines, pour etre a meme d`en apprecier la splendeur.
-----------Alexander M. Schindler. January 21 home-going seasonChinese new yr is round the corner, people are going home every day. its going to be my turn in a few days.
Looking back the yr 2008, i do like some of the things in life:
1. Renew friendship with a friend who i lost contact for 5 years and she remains a very good business partner.
2. Get to know a friend who has lots of things in common, maybe its easier for gemini to relate to each other.
3. My guess about Obama would be the president of the US has proven correct.
4. Finally visited vietenam which is only a few hundred kms from my home town.
5. The launch of DIY product was sucessful but ``interlectual property`` was stolen and copied by rivals.
6. Enjoy hiking and enjoy being one of the best hikers among amateurs, lol
7. Met 2 friends with who i really had a good time, cos of the fact that i did not like them from the very begining but i did feel the real me with them.
8. Watched some really good movies.
9. ....you name it.

August 11 poem favoriLa distance la plus éloignée du monde La distance la plus éloignée du monde Ce n’est pas entre la lune et la terre, Mais c’est entre toi et moi : Je me trouve juste devant toi Et tu ne sais pas que je t’aime ! La distance la plus éloignée du monde Ce n’est pas que je me trouve juste devant toi et Tu ne sais pas que je t’aime. Mais c’est que tu sais parfaitement que je t’aime , mais Tu fais semblant de t’en foutre ! La distance la plus éloignée du monde Ce n’est pas que tu sais parfaitement que je t’aime et Tu fais semblant de t’en foutre. Mais c’est que tu m’aimes aussi très clairement et Tu n’as pas le courage d’accepter que tu m’aimes ! La distance la plus éloignée du monde Ce n’est pas que tu m’aimes aussi très clairement et Tu n’as pas le courage d’accepter que tu m’aimes. Mais c’est que tu sais très bien que je t’aime et tu m’aimes aussi, mais Tu quand même construis exprès un abime entre toi et moi Avec ton coeur froid et dure ! April 21 Julie is leaving France tomorrow...Time flies ~ suddenly it`s mid-April now. Julie is going back tomorrow morning as she told me 2 months ago. so sad.... She is such a special girl, one of those charactor girls i have ever met.
If it had not been her, i should have spent some dull and boring time in the summer last yr.
G O O D L U C K TO HER. April 15 14/04/2007 got robbed for the 2nd time in France8h15 pm at Montparnasse, 5 around 16-yr-olds (one black and 4 arabians ) were waiting at the top of escalator to metro 12. I felt sth wrong when stepping onto the escalator, but there was no way back. I became prey. The black one quickly + skillfully grabbed my wallet out of my handbag and dashed downwards, leaving me and his buddies there. Strangely i have never kept so calm in such a situation, i told them frankly there was not a single cent in my wallet, just some student cards. I required my cards back. His friend did not believed what i said but nicely shouted to the other end of the escalator for me `` leave the cards to her``. After a while, the black guy, failing to get sth valuable, came back with my wallet and returned everything to me. I said thank you then headed for the metro. The train came and they got on it. I got on the same wagon deliberately and standed an arm`s length away from them. The one who had taken my wallet was kinda embarrassed while his friend said to me that it was a joke...I dont know if i will be lucky enouth to meet robbers with such sympathy, but they were not born to be robbers, they are delinquent with good soul. The fact they gave me back what seemed to be important to me did deserve some rewards.
I thought of giving them some money, however i did not because
a> I had only around 4 euros on me and had planned to get some hankie from the supermarket on the way home.
b> Money are so hard to earn, imaging standing whole day as shop assistant for a hand-to-mouth existence there days, even myself spend it wisely, let alone doing charity.
c> I did have some 20 euros in the inner pocket of my handbag, but i could not give it to anybody as it was red envelope money.
Lesson of the day: keep cool like Michael Scofield in dangerous and unexpected situation, and you will win psychologically your enemy.
- This is written to see if i will reason the same way in the future, say 3 or 5 yrs` time -
