The last Desire

Before the rain comes to water the garden, I chop some wood and light a good fire… I peel and cut vegetables—potatoes, carrots, turnips, leeks, tomatoes, peppers, onions—and on the fire, my soup simmers, gently releasing fragrant bubbles of joy… I prepare some hot wine, sweet and rich with spices (cinnamon, star anise, cloves), which I sip slowly to prolong my pleasure… Between two sips, while watching the flames dance and the embers glow red, I reply to my emails and to the kind comments left by thoughtful artists, with a smile that lingers on my lips.

I realize that lately, every task I take on has been done easily, and with great delight, because I am completely immersed in the present moment… Yet, the thought comes to me that if, in this life, I’ve managed to erase all my desires, there remains one over which I have absolutely no power…

The desire to one day share with you all these little moments of everyday happiness…

Passive acceptance. Resignation. The other becomes a fixture in our lives, like a piece of furniture… until fatigue and reflection creep in. We begin analyzing everything, qu...

Shatter the walls where you have locked her up all these years, thinking you were protecting her! Nowadays, the little girl you once were is much stronger than you. Her heart is the hotline to your soul. Her intense joy of living and her light will save you… You will be reborn.

In The Aura Of Our Laughter

When people ask me about my feelings, I struggle to contain the silent, powerful, and burning secret that has inhabited me for so many years... Inside me, the light accumulates and painfully pushes against every square inch of my skin, yearning to find its way out. As for you, finally free from the prison of lies that you and yours had built, you repair yourself and prepare... Soon, on the summer swing, in the aura of our laughter, I will push you towards the sun to feel in your shouts all the magic of a child with lungs swollen with joy and freedom...
