Quel serait le titre de votre biographie si elle existait ? I think my biography title would be : « The Rubik’s cube who liked boxes » Because i recognize myself in many labels. I don’t mind labels, and I don’t mind boxes. It’s just that since one is a little tight to fit in, i collect them.…

It depends on how much we are talking about! If I won about a million, I would get a pretty house, and spend it on the whole construction project management, perhaps make sure I can handle the taxes! One million can easily disappear! If I won about five, I would still get the pretty house,…

Si vous pouviez réinventer quelque chose, de quoi s’agirait-il ? If i could un-invent something, i think i would un-invent those standards that make some humans feel superior or inferior to other humans : It makes no sense that skin tone, or gender, or weight, or criteria that are not that relevant should cause so much…

The concept of eternity is… Terrifying. I don’t even think a human could handle it. Some say they dream about downloading their conscience into a machine to make themselves eternal. But if ever that were possible, whatever would live on in that machine would not be them. It would not be human. Just like your…

Apart from my wonderful dad? Terry pratchett would be the man. Here is a quote from his book « Reaper man ». : « In the Ramtop village where they dance the real Morris dance, for example, they believe that no one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away — until the…

No, it’s not. Because I was not imagining anything, a year ago. I was trying to deal with health issues, and not making plans for the future. I was living a day after the next. Sometimes, you just do. But is anyone’s life how they imagined it? Probably not. Life is not something you can…

I’m a good listener. That’s because I genuinely care. I like people to feel safe around me. And respected. And heard. That doesn’t mean I can handle anything. Sometimes, it is too much. And it’s nobody’s fault. Not mine, not the others. We all do what we can. I think we tend to be so…

Nothing. Am I perfect? No. Would I want to be? Why would i? Who’s perfect? According to whose criteria? And what’s the point of « perfection », anyway? There’s beauty in wrinkles, and uneven skintones, and scars. There’s soul in every little crack in somebody’s voice, soul in other unpredictable traits. I love old family pictures, with…
