Crash Landing on You (2019)
[K-Drama] Crash Landing on You – 16 episodes – Netflix A little personal aside This drama has a very special place in my life. I watched it during my dark night of the soul period caused by the twin flame journey. I thought that watching this drama could make me change my mind, especially since it was my brother who recommended it to me (and coming from him, I know that I will always like it) in addition to liking the actress Song Ye Jin. This was not a good idea at all, this drama devastated me since it acted as a mirror linked to my love story with my…

Ushio to Tora (2015-2016)
[TV Series] “Ushio to Tora” – 2 seasons I really like this anime and have seen it several times. The story revolves around Ushio and Tora, a human and a yokai who are forced to team up to exterminate yokai who prey on humans. Ushio came face to face with a yokai who was trapped in the trap door of his warehouse impaled by the “beast spear”. This is the yokai his father talked about since he was little. This yokai (Tora) asks him to deliver him, announcing his intention to devour him afterwards! So it’s better not to deliver it. But Ushio now sees the yokai because by opening…

The Giver (2014)
It’s a science fiction movie that marked me a lot because it was for me a very good emotional inducer. That’s what I expected from cinema, that it would make me feel a lot of emotions. This film made me want to be alive more than ever and to listen to my emotions! The story is set in a distant future, in a community where free will does not exist, where life is tasteless, where we all dress the same. Moreover, the future of each citizen is programmed for a very specific profession according to the qualities of each of them that were observed during their childhood. All the inhabitants…

Move to Heaven (2021)
[KO-Drama] « Move to Heaven » (2021) – 10 episodes – Netflix I really wanted to give my opinion on this drama that touched my heart. Each episode is a nugget of happiness, and these nuggets are each filled with very touching messages, rich in emotions. I have always been sensitive to people’s personal stories and the meaning they give to their lives. Here it highlighted the personal story of the deceased and the bereaved who are also the protagonists of the drama. At the same time it made me discover the job of post-traumatic cleaner that I did not know at all: they clean the house of the deceased. I found…

Angel Heart (2015)
Japanese drama “Angel Heart” – 9 episodes (2015) I am a big fan of the City Hunter universe and Angel Heart so I was very surprised to see that Angel Heart was adapted into a drama. I watched it very quickly, my heart excited by the discovery. I was not disappointed from the first episode, I was even moved, the characters were well chosen! And I really like the presentation of the credits, simple but very telling and which summarizes the central story well. Synopsis We learn that Ryo and Kaori decided to get married. This is a happy news after so many years of teaming up as City Hunter.…

Candy by Yumiko Igarashi & Kyoko Mizuki
[Shojo manga] Candy Candy – 9 volumes (1993) This manga was published in 1993. It is one of my favorite manga that always accompanied me in life. It is the very first shojo manga that I read, when I was a teenager. It deeply marked and touched my heart as a young girl. I wanted to be like her, mischievous and brave, to be joyful and authentic. Just like her, I wanted to live beautiful relationships, friendships and love, but especially to be able to meet my “Prince of the hills”. I think that after that, I always knew that I was made to live in a couple, a life…

Haïku d’amour by Jean-Michel Léglise
Right now I am composing haiku to accompany my intuitive watercolor drawings. I felt like reading haiku about love to be wrapped in love this holiday season. I was drawn to the cover of the book “A Red Rose Wilting”. This simple 42 page book is all about love. The love of nature, the love of oneself, the love for two until its torments. I found pretty the haiku on the back cover : Si je pouvais être…le soleil qui te réchauffe,voudrais-tu m’aimer ? If I could be…the sun that warms you,would you love me ? I can’t imagine living without love and I need to feel it in every area of my life. This…

Future Boy Conan (1978)
[TV Series] « Mirai Shōnen Conan » – 26 épisodes (1978) I saw this old Hayao Miyazaki anime again and still love it ! Personally I think it hasn’t aged too much and I had a good time. Further the topics are always up to date ! Of course I introduced my daughters to this anime when they were little, and each time it reminds me of the sound of their childish laughter. Mimi gave her opinion… : That’s too good, the kids are too cute ! Conan is too strong. Gimpsy is funny, he zoos, he is more better, he is the best ! Conan’s quest The land and the sea are destroyed by the 3rd…

François Cheng (born 30/08/1929) – Cheng Chi-hsien (程纪贤) is a Chinese writer, poet and calligrapher, he was naturalized French in 1971.I knew him through these interviews on the web and I admire him a lot. I love his author name which is 程抱一 (Chéng bào yī) which means “Who embraces Unity”. This is exactly what I feel in his words and scriptures. He forcefully embraces this Life in all its splendor, its purity by being one with Life! The Quatrain “As I grow older, I return to the essential form of the quatrain. The quatrain is special in that it is the most concentrated form, but it has a very…
