Claire Fabre, cultural animator

At least once in our lives, who has not been overwhelmed by the beauty of a landscape, of a bird’s song, of a work of art, or even of a gesture or a look?  Let us remember these moments.  Fugitive experiences of unusual lightness, suspended moments of inner fullness, when - for an instant - worries, fears and heaviness leave us. Have we not then felt connected to the world as to ourselves?  Have we given these moments of beauty the attention they deserve?  Have we let them resonate inside us, or have we simply considered them an accidental parenthesis in our chaotic lives?
Yet in that instant, we have experienced being, a window open to infinity, to our innermost recesses: two expressions of a unique reality.
