Crime is the best especially in prison
20 GOOD REASONS TO BE NOSTALGIC
IN THE SUMMER
ROBIN WILLIAMS AND MANY MORE
LOST IN A PRISON BREAK
Jacques COULARDEAU
They say the summer is the season when people do nothing economically or socially productive, at least of commercial Added Value. But it is also the season when people can increase their own culture, revisit places they have not visited for decades, or simply visit places they have never visited before. This is personal added value that only counts for one’s own satisfaction. But isn’t it interesting to meet people who have that kind of personal added value and are ready to share it?
Yes, it is, but it is not that simple.
Our memory is too often short-term memory. We remember for a short period of time and then we forget. In fact, this is completely wrong. We are no longer conscious of what we saw, learned or heard but our brain never forgets anything. It only takes a visit back to what was “forgotten” for it to come back naturally, to re-emerge from oblivion. That’s even funnier than that when you visit a city you used to be living in some fifty years ago. It has changed and yet all that comes back to you is what it was and how it was, and you experience the strange feeling of “I just can’t see what it used to be.”
Just get on Google’s satellite maps and revisit the streets you used to be living in and walking every day to go to school when a kid. Things have changed tremendously. Do you remember when around Roubaix’s City Hall it was nothing but bare parking lots? Of course, you do, and yet it no longer is there. Twenty-five years makes a real difference. You go there and you will be haunted by what it used to be, and what your feelings and impressions used to be there too when you crossed these ugly bare asphalt surfaces with dozens and dozens of cars parked there.
What I suggest here are some classics in films and series and just let yourself slide into it and nostalgically remember what your impressions were the first time you watched them. You will be amazed at how strong your memories are and at the same time you will see things differently because the world has changed, you have changed and things have changed. Strangely enough, under Trump, you cannot think the same way as under Obama or Bush Junior, not mention Kennedy, Nixon or Reagan.
Don’t be surprised and enjoy the change and find some new life in the old cup of tea. Or a cup of coffee if you are in coffee rather than tea. Have a good trip back to memory lane.
And do not forget to enjoy the nice summer weather we are having right now. It may not last or it may become bad and then worse. Your choice, or isn’t it the choice of some transcending cosmic force?
