A Promise of Hope.. A Lasting Peace

After watching a short interview with President Obama in Oslo (the only one made on Norwegian soil, btw), I felt the need to share some impressions about it, so my blog came to mind. After all, it's been a while, and the blog has always been a good friend... :) thought I'd restore its rightful place, especially since there is a lot to be noted.

About the interview, now: the President spoke in high terms about his wife, Michelle, saying that she was his guiding light through the intricate political games, the most honest person he knows. He is a straight-forward man: he himself noted (critics beware!) that maybe he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize a bit early in his career. He acknowledged the fact that there is a lot to be done before one can savour such an honour - in retrospect - while acknowledging to oneself that all the work leading up to that was worth the while. Truly admirable was the plain, simple and well behaved manner in which he spoke.

After watching the short interview, I too will reach within myself for the world that could be. Congratulations, Mr President!

Prague: Black Light Theatre

There is a lot to be told about my Prague escape this summer, but I would like to start with the part that did not get photographed: the Black Light Theatre performance. I went to "Aspects of Alice" and liked it very much. Apart from the classical music concerts taking place at every noon and in the evenings in the Golden City, the Black Light Theatre is a particularly special form of art you will definitely enjoy. It involves a world of dreams mingled with a real world, cartoons and people moving onstage with the same easiness you would picture in a movie. Only it is real, and happening in front of your own eyes.



Cameras are forbidden, still I found this little movie on the Internet. Enjoy - and go there if you are in Prague!
