Presiunea de a fi fericit
Read more: Presiunea de a fi fericitValuri de sinucideri. Tot mai multi oameni tineri, bogati, “de succes”. Nu e ceva defect cu treaba asta? Cum definim succesul noi astazi?

Pilula de râs
Read more: Pilula de râsDovada de netăgăduit a faptului că plutocraţia viitorului nu mai cunoaşte loialităţi naţionale. Eu, către fiică-mea (3 ani) născută şi crescută în Germania: “Tu ce eşti, româncă sau nemţoaică?” Ea, chibzuind: “Emmmm…. Prinţesă!” Eu, intrigată: “Serios?
