What a chi-chi question!

Nobody puts baby in the corner!

...don't go.

Do you want the moon?

There's something up there...

What fools indeed.

Ma petite maman chérie,
mon tout petit frère adoré,
mon petit papa aimé,

Je vais mourir ! Ce que je vous demande, toi, en particulier ma petite maman, c'est d'être courageuse. Je le suis et je veux l'être autant que ceux qui sont passés avant moi. Certes, j'aurais voulu vivre. Mais ce que je souhaite de tout mon cœur, c'est que ma mort serve à quelque chose. Je n'ai pas eu le temps d'embrasser Jean. J'ai embrassé mes deux frères Roger et Rino. Quant au véritable, je ne peux le faire hélas ! J'espère que toutes mes affaires te seront renvoyées elles pourront servir à Serge, qui je l'escompte sera fier de les porter un jour. A toi petit papa, si je t'ai fait ainsi qu'à ma petite maman, bien des peines, je te salue une dernière fois. Sache que j'ai fait de mon mieux pour suivre la voie que tu m'as tracée.

Un dernier adieu à tous mes amis, à mon frère que j'aime beaucoup. Qu'il étudie bien pour être plus tard un homme.

17 ans et demi, ma vie a été courte, je n'ai aucun regret, si ce n'est de vous quitter tous. Je vais mourir avec Tintin, Michels. Maman, ce que je te demande, ce que je veux que tu me promettes, c'est d'être courageuse et de surmonter ta peine.

Je ne peux en mettre davantage. Je vous quitte tous, toutes, toi maman, Serge, papa, en vous embrassant de tout mon cœur d'enfant. Courage !

Votre Guy qui vous aime

Guy

Dernières pensées : vous tous qui restez, soyez dignes de nous, les 27 qui allons mourir !

There are only two kinds of people who are really fascinating: people who know absolutely everything, and people who know absolutely nothing.
Oscar Wilde


"In Germany, they came first for the Communists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist;
And then they came for the trade unionists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist;
And then they came for the Jews, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew;
And then... they came for me... And by that time there was no one left to speak up."
-Friedrich Gustav Emil Martin Niemöller

I will never forget.

Bokeh (10 pics)



I don't know how I stumbled across this relatively fresh photographic genre.... but I am LOVING it. Called "Bokeh," this form of photography thrives where other types fail. The blur. Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light. The term comes from the Japanese word boke (暈け or ボケ), which means "blur" or "haze", or boke-aji (ボケ味), the "blur quality". Whoever decided to run with this and work with it, I thank you. I stare into these…

Hey Rachel Anne! Thank you for the nice comment. I'm glad you like my photos - I've been collecting inspiring/funny photos since the start of this site. On a side note, I loved the Handsome Men's Club video...funniest thing I've seen in awhile. Hope all is well with you...

Of your private world.
I'm telling because I have pressure on my side and I don't think it's a coincidence you leave a comment today.
Don't mean you are making pressure on me
