Et vous avez supposé que vous me connaissiez… Mon art, si je peux me permettre, est hyper-subjectif, évitant l’interprétation objective. Comme le point de vue détermine la perception, la perception détermine la croyance et la […]

Destiny may not be coerced, cajoled, or counted on. Open or contrary to its vicissitudes, either in eager anticipation or kicking and screaming, you must ride the river to the sea, then hop the first available vessel to your next destination, then the next, then the next…
Whatever lies in your immediate future is just one further twist and turn along the way, along that purposely unfolding path between freedom and responsibility, whimsy and fancy, now and then.
Courage is never easy. Courage is never cautious. The only test of courage is boldness. No leap of faith ever revealed its landing prior to the jump.
What can a flame remember? If it remembers just a little less than is necessary, it goes out. If it remembers just a little more than is necessary, it goes out. If only it could teach us, while it burns, to remember correctly.
Between concealment and honesty, between invention and reality, between revelation and mystery, between artfulness and artifice, between standing still and moving forward, between knowing and feeling, there is courage. That is what the flame remembers. It remembers to be brave.
The beginnings of bravery are as simple as this. A man, or a woman, awakened too early, in the darkness, while everyone else is still sleeping, instead of rolling over immediately, and falling back to sleep, resists this urge, resists it, because for him or her, it is important, it is crucial, to qualify that experience, to describe it to him or herself, to live it fully, before submitting again to sleep. Courage begins at that point, that moment, when resistance overcomes submission.
If you can be brave, you can be brilliant. Disembroil yourself from the ravelled, choking maze of caution. Do it now. What are you waiting for? Nothing begins 'til you get there.
Your next step and direction have been given to you by Destiny. When they have been taken, and it is time to move on, the path forward from them will be given to you as well.
Accept this newest challenge with gratitude, with vigour, with determination. Be dauntless.

L’amincissement logique élastique devient délicat aux merveilles. Un bon argument au mieux défait le labyrinthe étouffant de la prudence. Le soudain du lent est élevé, le curieux du commun. Dans le brouillard sceptique qui s’embrume […]
Qu’attendez-vous ?
Oh… ce que vous pourriez être si vous cessiez d’être qui vous étiez! L’acte le plus courageux est de penser par vous-même – à haute voix – à vous sortir du labyrinthe effiloché et étouffant […]

In Tanggu 塘沽区, the port district of the Tianjin municipality, 48 kilometres downriver from Tianjin, on the Hai River, where it enters the Bohai Sea, I lived alone, upstairs, above a long abandoned commercial enterprise […]
Devenir
Tu n’es pas défini par ce qui t’arrive,mais par la façon dont tu y réagis,par les choix que tu fais d’une évolutionà la suivant. Comme tu es, tu choisisdevenir ce que tu seras.

Before one sees, one has to look. Seeing, in earnest, deliberately, fully, grants perception. Perception determines belief. Belief determines reality. Lingering intentionally upon that reality records it in memory. Just as perception is subjective, so […]

Struggle is for those whose weakness and fear demand compliance to mass indoctrination, acquiescence to mass hysteria, resignation of individual will to collective deceit. To struggle is to wallow, to flounder, to thresh, to flail, […]
No other choice
When initiating action, judge not its legitimacy by its desired or imagined outcome; simply begin. It will unfold as it must, as it has been ordained by destiny to evolve, to evince, to resolve. Disembroiled […]

One is often born other than she or he is meant to be. Biological gender may be suggested at birth, but psychological gender is determined by destiny. Choice, then, accompanied by courage, must intervene to […]
