Paper hearts

Air

Up in the Air


When you are ok, then you can not write ... It's strange, but it's the actual pattern. Yes I'm not ok. I can not remember when I was ok last time. But... I know that it's my choice.

Everything what we have here in our lives - it's our choice.


"You might Be my LIFELIGHT"


Sometimes we find each other. And the emotion of the moment is that we think we found everything  what we were looking for. And the miracle is that all of our searches - it is a right person. The right person. It is impossible to explain, it's always an individual formula.

Overpoweringly. Madly. Indefinitely. Gently. Passionately. Inexplicably.

But who can guarantee that it's for all life? And we want like crazy, that the body will die first, and not  this fragile feeling. This feeling is more vulnerable when we have "as usual" a lot.

What could be better to fall in love with each other every day? Or at least once a week.

Paper Hearts


Our hearts are like kites they are vulnerable under the strong winds. But without the wind, they are lifeless. And if you are wind, then your job is not to give your heart to fall down, to show to your heart whole this world, to allow  your heart to be there and every where ...

And if you are the kite ... you will never take off if you do not let the wind to be inside in your being.

Children's questions: Clouds

4-year-old daughter of my childhood friend asked me about what is a cloud?

When the four year old kid asks you about something and you know the answer,definitely, but .. the dilemma is there, you must explain it to the child, kid must very well understand it , and to be able to tell his friends.
How I explained  the phenomenon of cloud to Angie? Well
The most important thing is it does not stray off course. Because when you try to explain something, be sure that the child will have a lot of other questions, immediately. It is important that your explanation must be interesting and revealing.







Not enough words to explain something - then show it.
I told Angie that warm air rises up and up, like steam in the bathroom when she bathes.
Then the droplets of water gather together in cheerful company and travel in a cloud. But clouds dissolve into the sky,they do it when the rains.
Droplets of water settle on the land on leaves, grass ... and then again, rise high into the sky in the form of steam, again, they make their funny travel, until the next rain.

Facebook & Twitter

Social networks are an integral part of life for many  people.
I do not think that social networks try to substitute a real communication, because it is not truth for me.
Probably there are people who prefer emulation, who prefer online communication.
But this is not problem  of social network in this case, but there is a psychological problem of users of social network.
Deleting an account on a social network does not make a person with communication problems to go out and talk to any stranger.
When can we talk about psychological bondage from communication in social networks?
It is always individual.
One more question that often arises - it is that social networks are free from the political system platform, people express their own opinions, organize a group ...
The last few years have generated the concept of "revolution through a social network"...

Governments have established special departments that monitor communities in social networks.
Social networking has become a separate social institution, which has huge potential for development.
Of course, social networks Facebook and Twitter are the phenomena of this century.

Marriage is a formality

Often I hear phrases like: "Marriage is a formality"
I wonder what is behind this phrase...
They say that women are the initiators of the marriage, most of all.
Usually "a formality" is in the lives of those people for whom marriage is not a fact, not yet.
Is marriage a guarantor of relationships?
The answer is obvious.
No.
I think that every relationships can be in crisis (not one time even).
What is important it is experience. Always.
When you are in a relationship or marriage, then sit in the trench will not work.
Marriage is not a formality and is not a guarantor of relationships. Moreover, I think we need to realize that the relationships die, it happens. And this is normal.
There are examples of how people save their relationships for decades, many many years. And it's beautiful...
This is the finest expression of human nature.

Romanovs

The royal family

It's incredibly, but I could not even talk about the Romanovs few years ago. Subject of Imperial Russia was closed. We were brought up in Soviet-style non-acceptance of the royal history of our country.
Looking at these pictures, I see the family. I see people, the era, which is far from me.

All photos from the archives of Anna Vyrubova. Anna Vyrubova was the nearest friend of the Empress Alexandra Fyodorovna Romanova. Anna Taneeva-Vyrubova left  Russia with her mother in 1921.
She took thousands of pictures of the royal family from Russia.  
This is only a small part.
A student at Yale University, Robert D. Brewster bought six albums of photos and some letters ofAnna Vyrubova.
The woman was in need of money, and probably it was the only way to survive. Anna Taneeva-Vyrubova died in 1964 at the age of 80 years.
