Marie-Edwige, Stéphane et Tocqueville


Yesterday it was Saint Marie-Edwige day , you know, Le Petit-Nicolas' girlfriend, the one who is so "drolement chouette"...
Big Nicolas prefers Cecilia... What reminds me that I'll have to do my share of propaganda as the French Presidential elections are approaching...It will remind me of the good old time at UNI... and the poster sticking nights in the streets of Rouen....Sometimes I miss those days. Things looked much more simple, I had less answers but I also had much less questions ! I think it's what really makes the difference: your consciousness level. The world that surrounds us is often a mere reflexion of what we want to see, or maybe of what we are trying to convince ourself that we should find in it...

Last week I received a great email from my friend Stéphane. He quoted Tocqueville :

"celui qui recherche dans la liberté autre chose qu'elle-même est condamné à
servir"

"the one who searches in truth something more than itself is condemned to be a servant"

Reflect !
