Unfair
It was summer,I was burned by the sun and I didn't care;I was thirteen.Right about 2 in the afternoon I was trying to catch crabs in the holes of that rock pear in" La Salis-port" in Antibes.
I had a few shuncks of sardines to attract crabs out of shelter.When you do that and you're 13
YOU ARE BUZY,no fiddles.I didn't notice her at first,she was very discreet and didn't make any noise,she was looking down over my shoulder,I just felt she was there after a while and I turned around to face her-She whispered "watch out,he's coming out".
I got back to main subject:Catching crabs and she stuck with me for a long while,she held the sardine bag and a bit of the gear I was dragging along,I mean she was fully accepted.
When I finally stopped fishing hours later and put all my catches in a box,I had a good look at her and I realised how much taller than me she was-and that overgrown kitten had curbs as if she became a woman earlier than most girls did. 'T was the first time I paid attention to a girl !
When she said:"I got to get back home" I answered "I'll walk with you"-"yes" she agreed.
Off we went.So we strolled through the Cap d'Antibes and we looked at each other and at last we came to a stop and since there was no one around...I just reached after her as she did after me,
and I didn't have enough hands to touch,feel and caress all that she had to offer and I was covered by wet lips and we got out of breath and we got red in the face and.......she said :
Oh it's so unfair! >>-----> What is ?>>----->I'm leaving tomorrow>>>------>UNFAIR.

Pictures down bellow are about a southern french tradition; On the first day when you open a shop you offer drinks to people in the street.Well, how about a short visit?

Whenever
I sometime feel very sad,when the wind blows hard and I'm out and alone,as if the drift brings
memories of things I lost,and when we loose a friend, no matter what the reason,then it stings your heart and you bleed inside.For all the friends that I lost,some died before I could see them once more,some left and never came back,in other cases I was the one to leave not to return.
The worst feeling of all is when you lost that friend because of misunderstanding,when you said or did something that shocked your friend; of course you didn't want to do that, the result is the same and it feels unfair and the worst is that you care,so it just hurts.
If ever,whenever,by any chance one of you, my lost friends , cross my road or read these lines,
and if you feel that you could be my friend again then don't hesitate,my door is wide open, I regret you everyday,wish you were here again.

I FORGOTWHOTOLDMETHISBUTIVEBEENTOLD
Did I read it? If so I can't tell who wrote that,it goes like this:
Merging from a savage world,here comes the weakling,the most feeble and ridiculously awkward animal you can find on earth: Man-and he survived,with caring for his family,uniting with his kind,joining forces with other species and fighting the cave-bears,the saber-tooth and the lions,fighting the snakes,fighting this and fighting that 'till his rage faces nothing but his own
specie----Hey!! STOP IT--That's it man,lets take five-hear me-we've won the earth,it's ours-
Saber-tooth's gone and we have to protect the few tigers,lions,elephants and gorillas left here-
THE EARTH IS OUR GARDEN AND ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS TO KEEP IT BEAUTIFUL-
WE'VE WON, IT'S OURS, WE CAN STOP FIGHTING.......WE OWN IT ALL.
MAN WON !!

On Eternity
utenzi told me: no one came back to our plan of life to tell(after death),if there is an' after'life.
Sorry,I have to skip the Lazarus bit since Lazarus is not with us anymore-Too bad.
Anyway,it's about eternal life and has nothing to do with the plan of life we're on,so after the leap(tell the kids not to try that) AFTER the leap you fall,it means the void or something else or nothing.Clear; if there is no other plans somewhere then you're nowhere.
Let's go to the lab now,here we have: 1-a gallon size glass bottle 2-1lb of salt 3-an equal volume of dark pepper and 4-Eternity.(Make sure to keep that ingredient real close to you).
You pour salt and pepper in the jug(dry please),then after closing the jug you shake well
and put it down on the table.This is supposed to represent our plan of life.Each atom occupying a
unique position relative to the whole.That's where you live,if you shake once more you've made the leap; You do that, shake it baby!
The problem is,for your life -It needs the first set up- so grab eternity and shake until it comes back to first set up.See you around.

Saint Patrick's Day
My stepfather Pierre was giving me a ride from Monaco to Antibes,'twas a while ago, the road runs mostly by the sea side and as Pierre drove calmly, we had time to chat while the sun was going down.When we passed Nice it was early night.I don't know how we came to talk about the Irish but I was stating that Irish people came by thousands on the french Riviera,Pierre said :
" You exagerate, hundreds maybe,not thousands"so we got into a big argument about this .
The french always argue, they talk loud when they do.So I was saying "ten or twenty thousand Irish came to the Riviera in the past five years"and Pierre"You are out of your mind,Gerard....."
Conversation got hot and hotter.Now there is nine miles of beach from Nice to Antibes and we were half way through when the arguing got so hot,Pierre decided to change the topic to release the tension.He said " I wonder why they light all these fires on the beach"
I said " It's St. Patrick's day, that's why, you stoop"
