One of the things I loved in @istannbul_city was the fact that it was full of cats. There was like one cat on every roas and they were very loving. They even let me pet them and started purring in my hands, thing that rarely happens with stray cats in @romania #catsofistanbul #p1 #istanbul #travel #culture #newcity #turkey https://www.instagram.com/p/CYSrQLQqb6V/?utm_medium=tumblr

I almost gave up

There comes a moment in life when you feel you are tired and you feel like giving up everything, like every piece of your body is aching and you want nothing more than staying in bed and looking at…

I want to keep on writing. First of all because I like writing and finding hidden meanings in the books I read, and second of all, because it is nice to see the way you were thinking and feeling a book years ago, seeing the way you developed and grew from a literature perspective.

Each book, each volume that you see, has a soul. The soul of the one who wrote it, of the one who read it, lived it, dreamed about it. Every time a book changes it's owner, each time a glance slips on it's pages, it's spirit grows and gets stronger. Orig: "Cada libro, cada volumen que vez, tiene un alma. El alma del que lo haya escrito, del que lo haya leydo, vivido, soñado. Cada vez que un libro cambia de dueño, cada vez que la mireasa desliza entre sus paginas, su espíritu cresce, se vuelve mas fuerte." - Carlos Luis Zafon Spanish Embassy in Romania #readInTheSubway #spanishembasy #books (at Bucharest, Romania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNw_Eqmg1Mr/?igshid=c5gmd3mzmmcd

Felix and the invisible source

Title: Felix and the invisible source Original Title: Félix et la source invisible Author: Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt Publishing House: Humanitas fiction Number of Pages: 136 Cover Type:&…

The title of the book also sends to a series of eight novels (and rising) that Schmitt wrote, called “The invisible cycle”. I have never talked about it before, but I think the time has come. It is a series of novels which focus mostly on the idea of spirituality. Cause that’s what the idea of invisibility is all about, connecting to oneself, being more close to your spirit, the spirit of your ancestors and the spirit of the nature. This book is even more obvious from this point of view since it puts in an antithesis the idea of living in the nature vs the idea of living in the middle of a crowded place like Paris. But what it is even more interesting is that the author did not create this antithesis with promoting one or another, but presented the idea in a way that you can live in the nature thinking about the city but you can also live in the city and feel the nature inside you, feel the wind and listening to the birds. It is all a matter of perspective and choice.

"I write caressing the flowers in the field without moving the drops of dew. I write by making circles in the water, for waiting the amplification of the waves and their disappearance. I write like a tree moved by the wind, with the stump of intelligence remaining firm and with the leafage of the sensitivity flaring. I write with the good feeling and the relaxation after the act of love, watching my characters deep in the eye. I try to live this way, tasting every second, enjoying the melody of the days, absorbing each note."
