Birago Diop : les morts ne sont pas morts

Les mots toujours tres lourds de sens du poete Senegalais Birago Diop a la memoire d'Emmanuel, de Frederic, de Michel, de Jean-Philippe et tous ceux qui nous precedent dans les vents de Dieu. Les morts ne sont pas morts, ils restent aupres de nous si ce n'est en nous ou encore ils marchent parmi les vents du monde selon cette phrase que j'affectionne particulierement du poete Allemand Rainer Maria Rilke. Pour Leopold Sedar-Senghor, dans la preface des contes d'Amadou Koumba , Birago Diop nous rappelle ce Pacte lourd mais essentiel qui nous lie a la vie : " Birago Diop ne fait que traduire, à travers la loi de l'interaction des forces vitales, la dialectique de la vie qui est celle de l'univers.

There are things we don't want to happen, but have to accept. Jennifer "JJ" Jareau

The Jennifer "JJ"Jareau principle In the critically acclaimed US TV Show Criminal Minds , Jennifer "JJ"Jareau a.k.a "JJ" quoted nicely her exit interview in the 2nd episode of the 6th Season.  Here's what I named it the Jennifer "JJ" Jareau principle. I'm thankful for my years spent with this family; for everything we shared, every chance we had to grow.  I'll take the best of them and lead by their example; where ever I go.  A friend told me to be honest with you, so here it goes.  This isn't what I want, but I'll take the high road.  Maybe it's because I look at everything as a lesson, or I don't want to walk around angry.  Or maybe it's because I finally understand.  There are things we don't want to happen, but have to accept; things we don't want to know, but have to learn, and people we can't live without, but have to let go.
