Show must go on..

In the German Vogue  from February 2007 I read an interview with Carla Bruni who said (I quote): ,,Marriage is like a prison for me, so I won't get married". And at  an other point asked if she could imagine to shoot a movie with her sister she answered: ,, I could compose a soundtrack for her any time, but I do not want to be hired as an actress'' .  Well,  never say never.. But she was absolutely right. There are situations in life, you just can't say no .. And there is absolutely no reason you should..

Trust in your desire..

After some days of calmness, I needed some big city's life impression which I have found in Wroclaw. Shopping, great restaurant's, discovering new places, a saturday party in the new club '' Bed ", a sunday play in the theater, followed by a Chopin and Liszt concert. A variety of experiences. To feel alive, one need to change the stage even if the best stories happen always backstage, don't they? Meanwhile, I read the book of Marilyn Monroe: '' Fragments: Poems, Intimate Notes, Letters'', edited by Stanley Buchthal and Bernard Comment. A great work that underlined the difference between who Marilyn really was and how the world wanted to see and finally saw her. A radically difference.

In search of your soul..

There is nothing like an evening with good friends when you laugh about the past and look forward to the future. There is nothing like spending time when the factor ''time'' doesn't exist. There is nothing like swimming in the pool by night while listening to wonderful Buddah Bar chill out music, drinking champagne and being just surrounded by the moon and the stars. But after all there is nothing, nothing, nothing like Paris. I was reading a book about Lady Diana yesterday, a courageous women who fought very hard for being herself, who listened to her heart and not her head, who was captured by illusions. Illusions are wonderful as long as they exist. When they cease to exist, it becomes dangerous. But it is worth to live with that danger. ,, Live dangerously and you live right'', said Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe. I agree.

Last train to the sky..

Even if time is money, the real luxury is to have them both. Chilling out carefree and living passions constantly, because t here is no point in living if you can't feel alive. But luxury is the most subjective word existing in this univers, because everybody has his own life vision and his own univers. I love people who are able to skip from one to another, those who are open-minded, those with a cosmopolitan attitude.. But in our world full of people only some want to fly.. (Seal)

Breeze of surrealism..

I was talking with friends about Salvador Dali last week. In an old Vogue that I read this morning while drinking my morning coffee at the terrace of the Palace in Antonin I found another article about him and I felt in love with his egocentric lifestyle. I liked when he said: Modesty is not exactly my speciality. Why should it be..? In the afternoon I had an extraordinary ride with my cousin on his motor bike to the Sokolnik Palace. It was the second ride this week and I loved both so much. The speed is amazing, the feeling is pure excitement, pure pleasure.. Life fulfilled with pleasure is all I want. Overdose of pleasure is all I have.

Life is a theatre..

Last year I admired the play  A Doll's House  written by the Norvegian playwright Henrik Ibsen in the Théâtre de la Madeleine in Paris where Audrey Tautou performed the role of Nora, a women who found the courage to quit the life she was pushed into by the tradition and social expectation. The play was first published in 1879 and it was very controversial because it criticised the 19th century marriage norms . The play shows the need of every individual to find out the kind of person he or she really is and to strive to become that person. Today, at the Puppet Theatre in Wroclaw I was wondering how many people know the art of being themselves. Being free from restraint, duty, schematic lifestyle.. Playing with life.. Enjoying it.. Profiting from extraordinary moments even in an apparently ordinary day..

Over the top..

Silence.. A pleasure for senses.. A feast for my mind.. People in love have the strong desire to spend time together and that's why I love so much spending time with myself. I am sorry for those who aren't able to be alone. And I don't like people who I feel sorry for. Life is strange. Life is fun. Life is unpredictable. While watching a great movie : ,,Buddenbrooks: The Decline of a family " it became even more clear that life can't be taken too seriously. Oscar Wilde said as well that life is too important to be taken seriously. Thus the only thing that counts for me is living my dreams and my expectations aren't high: I just want the best.
