LAST QUESTION

It’s probably a particular moment of wanting to give the “right response who survived” in front of what others will think of.

Real answers depend on what we are capable to imagine and one question is enough.

What is important?

The question I ask myself from time to time in silence.

Yes, this is me.

In different moments of my life I had other responses. In my childhood I was definitely influenced by other members of my family. What I was hearing back then was mostly religious, politics, history, mathematics subjects. I thought this is important….what “grown ups” talk about or tell me I should do in life when I’ll be older.

Seek yourself and make good things happen. We are all so different and beautiful. It would have been so sad and boring if we were all looking and acting the same.

Love, be thankful, create, protect yourself, preserve the nature, defend those who can’t by themselves, believe in something good, laugh, help and enjoy every morning when you wake up!

This life is our only gift. This one gift is important. Look in the mirror.

Gioroc sau pe toc?

Lidi:

Povestea de care îmi amintesc cu nostalgie se întâmpla la începutul anilor ’90, imediat după revoluție. Am visat să-mi ofer o pereche de pantofi cu toc, făcuți pe comandă într-un atelier, nu departe de biserica Kretzulescu. “Toc” este un cuvânt puternic, chiar întărește feminitatea, spre deosebire de englezescul și temperatul “high heels”. Venise vara și plecasem ca de obicei la țară, la Gioroc, să mă recreez după Bacalaureat. Odată ajunsă acolo, verii mei mi-au spus că se organizează o horă mare în sat și toți tinerii sunt invitați.

Socoteam horele grozave , dar nu participam la ele. Cel mai mult îmi plăceau babele și moșii aflați la margine. Nu făceau decât să pălăvrăgească întruna și ne spionau cu ochi de vultur. Civilizația s-a învârtit în jurul bârfei, probabil că așa am evoluat, din curiozitate. Acum se numește “schimb de informație” sau “chit-chat”.

Eh, uite așa m-am urcat pe tocurile noi-nouțe și am plecat ca un arlechino spre horă. Uitasem de aspectul drumului pentru că era nisipos până la biserică. Am ajuns epuizată de atâta defileu, dar nu conta, eu pluteam în lumea feminității absolute. Aceasta a fost prima mea plimbare pe tocuri, prin nisip, la Gioroc.

De atunci multe s-au schimbat…

Nu am mai purtat tocuri, nu mai este nisip la Gioroc, iar horele au dispărut.

Aleg Giorocul, totuși. Deși timpul a trecut pe nesimțite, atunci cand mă întorc acolo, mă înalț visând cu aproximativ 8 cm deasupra ierbii.

Favourite weather?

Helen:

After 53 years of memories and gratitude, let me tell you I prefer the morning dew. What can be more magic than that? The purity of a new day while sitting on my chair.

The silk flows between my hands while watching my joy with curly hair.

The fulfillment captures my eyes and gently embroids the story of a new dress.

My table has an elegant history, I often say she has character. It took her a lot of strenght to be that still.

To love once more?

Polixenia:

To love all the time, to love everyhthing on your path.

To love once more like it’s for the first time.

I make sure to be dressed everytime in my kind of material, respecting the right proportions. Happiness will be responsable to conture another dress for me and what else is more suitable than to look in the mirror and see a huge amount of love in it?

Why do you want to be the best?

Marius: For me? To be important.

Even if it’s about a ping-pong game, taking risks on financial markets, planting a flower or creating in this world of computers a self-conscious code, good things happen when you really focus on it.

Everything flows and evolves in this small circle where is only you and your dream.

I always think like that: Why a person can do incredible things and I can’t do them?

I still remember one piece of advice my neighbour gave me since I was 10 years old: “There is no I can’t, it’s in fact I don’t want!”

We can be important. As long as we live once, why not?

NEIGHBOUR OF THE HEART

In our first post https://www.mijournali.com/its-you-i-like/ , since Mijournali was born, we talked about this incredible kind man called Fred Rogers.

We hope you’ll get to see a special movie (documentary): “Won’t you be my neighbour?”

It’s about every inner child that somehow we forget it exists, kindness and love. Make yourself a present by watching this remarkable movie.

Your beautiful neighbour will smile from up above and you will hear his voice by saying: “I like you just the way you are!”
