LIGHT

Hi everybody!

I hope you had a great week! Imagine if we could reach the moon that easily, it would be amazing, don't you think? 

I've always been wonderstruck by everything that was capable to spread light, especially by stars. I don't know why but there is something magical about that. 

Besides, I think that stars are actually the only reasons why everybody is in love with the night (maybe it's because of Romeo's face, I'm not sure) or why the night is a lot more inspiring than the day.

 However, I believe that we can't really concentrate if there is too much light because it's decentralizing, we need less light to focus on what we're really looking for, just like in the movie "Now you see me", that I definitely adored by the way, the more we think we see, the less we actually notice (that's also why I prefer the night). We need to take distance to realize what it is all about. I can't really define what "it" refers to because it depends on what you're searching for, but if it's inspiration then don't sleep at night! Plus, have you ever noticed that night rhymes with light? And that's exactly what I am saying, there is nothing more enlightening than night even if it sounds contradictory! 

And tonight it is all about the LIGHT! I should write a song about it!

Plus, I think this picture beautifully represents the current connection of our world thanks to or because of globalization... Let's think about it!

We're not cows !

Hi everybody!

I hope everything is going great for you! Yesterday, I realized how a little bit of power can make you feel unconcerned of rules. I bet you want to know what happened, but it's definitely not the matter. I could give you dozens of examples of people loosing their mind because of the power they think they have. Hitler is actually the best example.
Anyway, I think it's quite funny. No matter if you are an officer, a school director (now you can guess what I am talking about), or a company director, the fact that you think that you are able to direct anything in this life is hilarious, because if there is something that you can absolutely not control it's LIFE! So, how did it happen? Why is it so easy to feel invincible? How is it possible that we sincerely believe we have the keys to manage this world?
The title of this post is "we're not cows", sure, we're human beings and sometimes I'm not sure it is better. I'm laughing, if we were cows we won't even know what's Chinese food and that would be so horrible ! Sorry, I was just saying that if we think the way we think it's because of our nature, that's simply the way we were build I guess. Even if Human nature is so contradictory sometimes, (we make wars to preserve peace, that's really weird) we're not cows anymore and that's already a step to be conscious of our acts, I just hope that some people could understand that power doesn't mean you have to act stupidly !

Those two pictures were taken in the MET museum in New York city where I had the chance to go this summer!

Back to basics

Hi everybody!

Yesterday, my philosophy teacher asked us to answer the question: "Who are you?". I realized that I never wondered who I am. I'm always trying to find a meaning of our lives, to find out why our world was created or the reason why everything happens in a certain way but I never even asked myself who I am. It's just crazy that something as simple as my own identity can make me feel so lost! 

My first reaction to answer this question was, of course, to give him my first name, surname, even nickname and date of birth. But how can a civil status define what's within a human being? 

So, I started to think maybe I should give examples of what I like and what I don't like in general, or maybe by "who are you?" he meant what can differentiates you from other people, but that would be a way to admit that there is a universal norm which I definitely think is false because I believe that we are all completely different (which is a great thing); if we all try to stick to a certain norm it's because of society's force, that's all. But that don't help me in the process of finding who I am...

So, I understand that I didn't even know who I really was. Who would have thought that I'll be my biggest mystery! 

Then I became paranoiac: If I don't know myself how can what I'm thinking about other people be something else than an illusion? OK, maybe I am going too far, and that's what those 2 pictures are all about mystery and trust! 

GOOD WEEKEND ;)

Sorry I forgot this one:

COLOOOUUURS

Hi everybody!

 This time I just wanted something colorful (I know you're tired with my obsession with black and white), funny and playful. This time, no need to think (which is great because I just started school)! I won't write an essay about how I imagine life, death, life post-death etc... I would just like you to enjoy some funny pictures so you could maybe lapse into a second childhood... I'm obviously still a kid, here's the proof:
