Cette ouverture totale nous permet de ressentir les choses dans leur intégralité, d'exprimer cette expérience par les mots et de la formaliser. À travers la méditation et des exercices d'écriture, [...]
What a strange, tumultuous five days it has been here in Paris. It is no exaggeration to say that I've never experienced anything like it, here or anywhere. We've gone from stunned horror and outrage to raw fear and anxiety to awe and amazement and much, much more within such a brief time frame, beginning [...]
