Recalibrare
Read more: Recalibrare“Iată darul cel mai mare al lui Hristos: ne binecuvântează cu această minunată, supranaturală putinţă de a răsturna principiile termodinamicii, ipseitatea, emoţia personală; ne vedem aşa cum suntem, nu cum ne plăcea a ne socoti – la fereala de orice posibilă învinuire – înzestraţi numai cu drepturi şi calităţi, neprihăniţi, stăpâni ai lumii, superiori imbecililor,…

Munich, 70 years after Auschwitz…
Read more: Munich, 70 years after Auschwitz…Today, 27.01.2015, is the 70th commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz. Glimpses caught yesterday in the city that witnessed the rise of national socialism all those years ago and which now takes pride in its vivid diversity and its Anti-Bagida movement. On my way home, I saw a man meditate in the subway station. He was sitting upright…

The road to excellence

Not even the young ones. Benjamin Disraeli once said that there is no education like adversity. Is…

NU terorii
Read more: NU teroriiFericiţi cei blânzi, că aceia vor moşteni pământul. Fericiţi făcătorii de pace… Mă tot gândesc: ce au “realizat” fanaticii prin teroare? Pe lângă crimele atroce şi dezgustătoare, tocmai au dat o nouă viaţă unei mici reviste satirice care altfel era în pragul falimentului (dovadă că lumea se cam plictisise de ea), au contribuit la reproducerea…

New Year’s Eve under the Eiffel Tower
Read more: New Year’s Eve under the Eiffel TowerBefore you go all “Aaaah!…” and “Wow!…” Paris was impressive, but also crowded and rather unromantically dirty. :-) You see, there’s Paris and there’s Paris.

The commercialization of Christmas…
Read more: The commercialization of Christmas…… the commercialization of life. Living in constant temptation. Craving and crushed by the “loss” of not getting it all. Exhausted by the pain of giving up that which we never had in the first place. Chasing peer-sanctioned matter. Arduously. Everything becomes a purpose in itself, and none of it is real. Cosmetics to mask…

Acum 25 de ani – Timişoara
Read more: Acum 25 de ani – TimişoaraIronie. Piaţa Operei tocmai fusese terminată, după o reconstrucţie care eliminase şinele de tramvai din centru, deviindu-le pe alte străzi. Ca să fie pentru manifestaţiile de sorginte nord-coreeană dedicate “geniului carpatin”. Nu-i pentru cine se pregăteşte. Sau da, pentru el au fost, dar pe invers. Ironie. Eram un copil la Revoluţie, dar îmi amintesc… …cum…
