Ponderings

A person who is poor is not necessarily unhappy.

In as much as, a person who is rich does not mean he's happy. 

You can be lacking with money, but surely would not lack of family.

In as much as, you can pay for everything but could not see value for anything.

For happiness comes beyond what this world has to offer.

And that our state of living does not define our sense of existence.

EVENT | Gabriel Peri Paul Eluard Gallimard 1966

Finally, we're done with our French poem recital!
And I must say- a job well done, tres bien.

I must also admit that it was both nerve wracking and exciting at the same time. I felt like I was reconnected to my theater side once again, and that I owned the stage that night as if nothing was in front of me (when in fact a crowd of native speakers were all eyes, ready to judge how I'll mess up).
