Le cordonnier du Vigan

Nous avons la chance d'avoir au Vigan un cordonnier qui travaille encore "à l'ancienne", avec des vieilles machines à coudre Singer, dont certaines sont toujours actionnées par pédalier. Ces quelques photos lui rendent hommage, et suggère l'ambiance bon enfant qui règne dans cette boutique.

Ampoules fluocompactes

J'ai reçu un mail contenant un message extrêmement alarmant au sujet de l'utilisation des ampoules à basse consommation. Je suis donc allé faire un tour sur "Hoaxbuster", et je vous invite à lire le message en question, ainsi que l'analyse qu'en fait cet excellent site.

Comme quoi, il vaut mieux être bien informé avant d'affirmer! (ou d'infirmer...)

"L'optimisme est la lumière de Dieu"

Life and God are one and the same. You are God's child. God would never close all the doors around you. His unlimited love and compassion wouldn't allow Him to be that cruel. God always keeps more than one door open. They may look as if they were closed, but they have, in fact, been left slightly ajar. Just a mild knock is enough and they'll give way. But our eyes are blinded by our ignorance. We fail to see the open doors through which the light of God's grace is pouring in.

My child, never lose courage. Never lose your trust in God or in life. Always be optimistic, no matter what situations you find yourself in. It's very important to be optimistic. Pessimism is a form of darkness, a form of ignorance that prevents God's light from entering into your life. Pessimism is like a curse, an illusory curse created by the illusory mind. Life is filled with God's light, but only by being optimistic will you experience that light.

Look at the optimism of nature. Nothing can stop it. Every aspect of nature tirelessly contributes its share to life. The participation of a little bird, and animal, a tree, or a flower is always complete. No matter what the hardships, they continue to try, wholeheartedly. Only humans are pessimistic, and this causes suffering.

Amma knows it isn't easy to always be optimistic. You may ask, how is it possible to be optimistic in the face of the many hardships and sorrows in life? It is true that it's difficult--but by being pessimistic you move towards even greater despair and darkness. All your strength and clarity of mind gets dissipated, and in the darkness of pessimism you feel abandoned and isolated. Optimism is the light of God. It is a form of grace which allows you to be much more perceptive and to look at life with greater clarity.

Printemps dans les Bauges

Pascale m'a envoyé une série de photos de cet endroit merveilleux qu'est le "Bois Dormant" dans les Bauges (Savoie).
Il ne restait plus qu'à improviser une musique inspirée par ces images, et le tour est joué! Voici le résultat, sous forme de diaporama.
