Boldly cascading down the steep slopes of Mount Gravillac to plunge into the Cretaceous limestone plateaus, this water re-emerges in the silts lined with fine sand of the Malzac springs, invigorated by contact with the ferruginous sandstone, it flows into the Apremont valley where it calms down while having managed to retain all its minerality.

 Life will bring you many hurts and pains, but it is in them that you will find happiness, and you will bless your life and make other men bless their lives, which is the most important thing.

― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov


***

Your prime doesn’t have an age.

It begins the moment you stop waiting to be saved and start showing up for yourself.


***

It's madness

to hate all roses

because you got scratched with one thorn,

to give up all dreams

because one of them didn't come true,

to give up all attempts

because one of them failed.

It's folly to condemn all your friends

because one has betrayed you,

to no longer believe in love

just because someone was unfaithful

or didn't love you back,

to throw away all your chances to be happy

because something went wrong.

There will always be another opportunity,

another friend,

another love,

a new strength.

For every end,

there is always a new beginning..... 

“And now here is my secret,

a very simple secret:

It is only with the heart

that one can see rightly;

what is essential is invisible to the eye."


—Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

 “If George Bernard Shaw had not made it a rigid rule to do first things first, he would probably have failed as a writer and might have remained a bank cashier all his life. His plan called for writing five pages each day.”

“When life gets tough, some of us feel that we’ve lost the game and life has won. But life isn’t trying to defeat you. Life isn’t even a participant—the game is yours.”
