Turning Tables - Adele

There is no need for marketing.

A voice, a melody, good lyrics and a pianist...

That's ALL you need :)

Start doing things you love ...

I have just found this inspirational photo. 
It provides us with strength, simplicity, tolerance, creativity, action and hope.
And believe me, hope is what we really need today.

It don't know the copyright. But found this pic on mymodernmet.com
 
Don't forget that you are the only one who live your life. 
So live it the way you want, decide what is best for you and try to do your best not to have regrets.

''If you don't like your job quit''
... 
I do not totally agree with the sentence
This is not that easy, specially in countries where the unemployment rate is extremely high.
Of course you can quit...
But...
How will you live ?
How can you be sure to find another job soon ?

Instead I would have written :
"If you don't like your job, send THOUSANDS of CVs to change." 
This the only way to find another one within the near future.

Here, the message is :
Act so that the wheel can turn the right way soon. 

Have a good week

I won't tell you...

Today it's Thursday and it's been so many days since I wrote here. 

And...

I won't tell you...
that I am not proud of me (for not writing).
that many things have changed over those last 5 months.
that the sun shines again.
that I just needed time.

I won't tell you...
that I don't want to comment the news.
that it is not a political blog.
that many things may change soon here.
that change is good, but knowing what to do / where to go is better.
that in this crazy world daily happiness makes me feel confident.
that turning off your tv may be the key...

I won't tell you...
that I have missed you.
that spring is back in Paris, and hope too.
that I have recently met many extraordinary people.
that I have so much positive energy.

I won't tell you...
that I have listened to Ellie Goulding's CD thousands of times.
that "Video Games" is worth being listened to.
that I started making new pics of Paris again.
that I started to walk for hours in the streets again.
that I almost finished a very important creative project.
that being a tourist for 3 days here confirmed me that this city was amazing.

I won't tell you...
to go to the cinema and theaters more often,
to watch classical, famous movies,
to read interesting or non-marketed books and journals,
to listen to classical music or songs with real lyrics,
to look for positive initiatives,
to think by yourself and to forget glitters.

I won't tell you...
that "after the rain, the sun shines" (French proverb)
that life is worth being lived
that difficult moment don't last forever
that good people, willing to help you, are just around the corner, waiting to meet you.

I won't tell you...
to have dreams and goals
to believe in them and in you
to try, again, again and again.
to go running, walking, dancing, football-ing, rugby-ing, tennis-ing or swimming
to say F**K to those who keep critizing you / your goals / your situation without suggesting solutions.

I won't tell you...
that everything is only a question of timing,
and that the wheel eventually turns the right way.

Take care of you,

CARPE DIEM,

"Nuovo" - Gianmaria Testa

I heard that song (plus a long interview) by chance on a French radio yesterday evening.

Nuovo is the new song by the Italian singer Gianmaria Testa, from his new album "VitàMia".
Listen to it, this song is so relaxing and melodious !

Plus, with the clip, you'd like to travel to beautiful Italian landscapes !

Enjoy...

Lyrics "Nuovo"

Nuovo come un giorno che non c'era
Come la sera quando arriva già

Nuovo com'è nuova la stagione
E nuovo il nome che la chiamerà

Nuovo di promessa mantenuta
Nuova la voce sconosciuta
Che la tiene e la terrà

Nuova questa mano che ti tocca
Nuova la bocca che ti parlerà

Nuovo da lasciare un gusto in gola
Nuovo come una parola che non so
Nuovo che se chiamo e non rispondi
Molto forte, molto più forte
Ti chiamerò

Nuovo come un'altra volta ancora
Per chi non c'era e non sapeva già

Nuovo com'è nuova la canzone
Per ogni voce che la canterà

Nuovo che ti lascia un gusto in gola
Nuovo come la parola che non so
Nuovo che se chiamo e non rispondi
Molto forte, sempre più forte
Ti chiamerò
