Hristos a Inviat! Jesus has Risen!

Easter egg / Simbolistica oualor de Pasti

Easter eggs are special eggs that are often given to celebrate Easter or springtime.

Eggs, in general, were a traditional symbol of fertility, and rebirth. In Christianity, they symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus: though an egg appears to be like the stone of a tomb, a bird hatches from it with life; similarly, the Easter egg, for Christians, is a reminder that Jesus rose from the grave, and that those who believe will also experience eternal life.In the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic Churches, Easter eggs are dyed red to represent the blood of Christ, shed on the Cross, and the hard shell of the egg symbolized the sealed Tomb of Christ — the cracking of which symbolized his resurrection from the dead. The egg is seen by followers of Christianity as a symbol of resurrection: while being dormant it contains a new life sealed within it.

In traditia populara de la noi, oul rosu de Pasti simbolizeaza sangele Domnului si ar avea puteri miraculoase, de vindecare, de indepartare a raului, fiind purtator de sanatate, frumusete, vigoare si spor. Ouale colorate in alte culori (galben, verde, albastru) vestesc bucuria primaverii. Cele colorate in negru simbolizeaza chinul si durerea pe care le-a suferit Hristos pe cruce. Ouale inchistrite sunt simbolul Mintuitorului, care a iesit din mormant si a inviat, precum puiul din gaoace.
Ciocnitul oualor semnifica sacrificiul divinitatii primordiale si se face dupa reguli precise: persoana mai in varsta (de obicei barbatul) ciocneste capul oului de capul oului tinut in mana de partener, in timp ce rosteste cunoscuta formula “Hristos a inviat”, la care se raspunde cu “Adevarat a inviat”. 

Yellow

"Yellow"

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.

I came along,
I wrote a song for you,
And all the things you do,
And it was called "Yellow".

So then I took my turn,
Oh what the things have done,
And it was all yellow.

Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into
Something beautiful,
You know,
You know I love you so,

I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do.
'Cause you were all yellow,

I drew a line,
I drew a line for you,
Oh what a thing to do,
And it was all yellow.

Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into
Something beautiful,
And you know,
For you I'd bleed myself dry,

It's true,
Look how they shine for you,
Look how they shine.

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And all the things that you do.

Vernisaj expozitia de fotografie "PARIS MON AMOUR"

Nu stim daca Parisul este Marele Bucuresti dar de Paris te indragostesti la prima vedere, oamenii, arhitectura, stradutele din Montmartre, cafenelele desprinse din picturile lui Lautrec, cosurile de fum dupa care te astepti sa fie o pisica, toate au un farmec greu de egalat.

Ca roman, ca bucurestean, in Paris te simti ca acasa, dar mult mai bine …. Ba chiar esti mandru ca esti roman, dupa ce vizitezi muzeul dedicat lui Constantin Brancusi.
Si, unde ar putea mai bine sa fie expuse imaginile cu Paris decat la Cafe Verona de la Carturesti, intr-o atmosfera intima care ne readuce aminte de Paris.
