Silence is nearby

Everybody knows, or should know, that silence is essential for our recreation, our creativity, our health, physical as well as mental and psychic. Letting oneself into a non-stop routine of the noisy cities means to ruin oneself, to create numerous risks for, among other disorders, dementia and depression.

I propose you (once again) to make a stop. To listen to silence. I’ve elaborated many safe and picturesque itineraries in the countryside across beautiful authentic villages of Île-de-France, just one hour from Paris by train. Our day-long journeys would depend, of course, on your walking habits, so distance may vary from 10 to 30 km.

Participation fees according to your possibilities. Join me one of the sunny days once you’re in Paris.

So make a stop and have a really regenerating walk. No crowds, no urban noise.

Tired

4 apartments per week to clean, it’s too much for me. I’m tired. It’s a hard physical work that should be paid double. Instead, the intellectual work has a priority to be paid five times more. I don’t have enough time and energy for me and my private needs such as doing nothing, dreaming, walking, being bored, writing… Right now I’ve come back home completely exhausted after 3 hours of cleaning and 2 hours in transport.

Days of Strength

Sometimes they happen to me, these rare days of sunshine, serenity and good work at the library. While I give 90% of myself to Versailles, I feel like I am losing the best part of me. When I work four days a week, I need then three days for recovery. I only sleep and want nothing. The best part of me which is dreamful and creative, full of energy, which crosses great distances and is capable to concentrate and write, write, write, is lost for the long days. The most stunning is that the body of this best part doesn’t cause any trouble. As if it were not, so indolent, so light.
