How Many Calories In A Brownie With Frosting?

La liberté d'après Colette

La libertad... ¿es muy pesada? ¿es difícil de manejar? ¿o será una gran alegría, la jaula abierta, la tierra toda para mí?
Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette en Claudine se va , 1903 *


(*) Siempre que cito algún fragmento literario en este blog, acostumbro poner de qué autor y de qué libro es (o de qué canción, si cito la letra de una canción), y a veces pongo en qué año fue escrito. Acabo de buscar (porque en el ejemplar que tengo, ni me fijé) de qué año es este libro, y no puedo creer que as of 1903 ... that is, I knew it was old, and the writing style, the clothes of the characters, etc., but felt it was the decade of the 30 or 40 ... Faaa, 1903, Colette was certainly one way, with the topics dealt with in his novels ...

Expressions Of Sympathy In Spanish

Factory owner smiles without transitional asshole

Sometimes I have the feeling that even I can make you smile. Not that that is my reason for being alive, to get up every morning or not to go here, do not get bogged down, okay? Not get bogged down. Not really a necessity, but you're welcome. I mean, you're not nice, in fact, but I like to make you smile. Or at least sometimes I think I can do it. And no, really, you're not my reason for living. What kind of monstrous egotism you?. No, really I have no particular reason to do so, my reason to live is to live simply. Until you find one better. If there is one. I guess you could consider "I have nothing to lose," but rather "I have everything to gain." Or something. And one of the things that I can win your smile. Although not really win because they never will be mine, you know. Not because you cause me to spend. It is a strange thing. But perhaps in time you soft and give it to me. Who knows.

And if not, well ... all be forgotten. Even
your smile.
Or I hope so.
