I’m such a negative thinker, that whenever I look at negativism as a whole, I immediately switch back to thinking positive. I just see too many negative things about being negativistic. Weird, huh?

Last week I was at a conference at National Peasant’s Museum. Costi ROGOZANU put a question to the audience that really struck me: How much of you is really Romanian? How many of the things that define you come from Romania? How do you spend your time in a Romanian-specific way? How much of the music you listen to, of the books you read, of the web sites you visit are from Romania? I think that the question was a mere discovery-inducing one, it meant nothing on love-your-country idea (he didn’t specifically ask us to be patriots, he just put an intriguing question to think about). +Continue Reading

Yesterday I went, for the very first time in my life, at an aerobics class. There were all women, we had some large gymnastics balls to play with and we did some exercises for about 40 minutes. I won’t bother you with details, but what impressed me most at that class was the sheer optimism and happiness from the trainer. She always smiled (sometimes with a very large smile), she was comforting, and she cared. Leaving sports apart, this was a lovely experience. And always in her conversations she tried to make me (and others) feel good. That’s it for today.
