What is beauty ?


What is beauty ?

Maybe you think beauty has something to do with looks... and it does. Being beautiful to one's eyes has everything to do with appearence. But isn't beauty an agreement between shape & contents ?!

Throughout the ages, there have been different concepts about beauty. And throughout a person age, that concept evolves too. devon aoki What is more appealing to one's eyes: body or mind ?

Today, it's all about shape, unmodified shapes.
I repeat: unmodified shapes

Yes, because there are quite a lot of shapes that we cannot be indiferent to and, in fact, they're merely products of cosmetic science, i.e. surgery, botox, implants, etc.

Eyes, lips, hair, silhouettes, legs, backs... and everything else. They all count. So, here go a scrambled list of models of (external) overall beauty...

I'm sorry (or not!), for there are more girls than guys... I'm not that expert in the (general) female preferences, although some of their choices are clear...

Healing process


Writting is a healing process.
The first time someone writes is over some teardrops.

These two expressions are my guesses. In part, they're true for me, as I believe that everyone writes out of discomfort and disarray and not out of joy and peace. When something troubles us, we escape to our refuge, we elope to our distant place... and our own words keep us safe.

Once & again


"Once and again, time does own us,
But now and then, we seem to be in control
If we fail to observe
(...)
If we feel the urge
We must react

Yet, this is not intricate, it's simple
And in simple things, would you prefer...
A hard climb or free fall?
To be on top or below ?
A U-turn or a U-Haul?
To learn or to know?

To be, to feel, to see... and comprehend.
The gain without pain exists...
Once and again

(...)
"

      in "Once & Again, just now.

This was an incomplete train of thought.
Maybe it will develop into something.
