And more family pics...Posted on 2008/07/25 13:33:21 (July 2008).  You know what I like? Riding my motorbike across the country. I don't go fast. I don't particularly enjoy speed. I like watching fields and meadows which unfold before me. I like going along small roads, penetrating clouds of wadded warmth when crossing open fields, then gushing in the freshness of woods and dense undergrowth. Such a nice feeling. I could traverse the whole of France in this manner. One day, I'll do it with Christelle. We'll go for a tour, zigzagging between towns and cities, from one end to the other. Perhaps we'll go to the Loire Valley and its many renaissance castels (+ its vinyards). About my mum. It's definitely over. I decided to stop seeing her. Five reasons : 1. She's always judging people. She believes that the act of criticizing everything is the best way to assert herself. 2. She is unable to listen. 3. She never questions herself. 4. She is overproud, to the point where it becomes frankly ridiculous. She wouldn't acknowledge her wrongs, because it's a sign of weakness. 5. She is a snob. The fact that she goes out with a selfish twit (who was a nobody before he came into inheritance) doesn't help. On a lighter note, I bought an olive tree wich I potted on the terrace. Vous savez ce que j'aime ? Chevaucher ma moto et parcourir la campagne. Je ne roule pas vite. Je n'aime pas la vitesse. J'aime voir les champs et prés défiler devant moi. J'aime emprunter les petites routes, pénétrer la chaleur ouatée qui enveloppe les champs de céréales et m'engouffrer dans la fraîcheur des sous-bois. La sensation est formidable. Je pourrais parcourir la France entière son mon 'canasson'. Et je pense qu'un jour je le ferai. Avec Christelle. Nous irons jusqu'aux châteaux de la Loire et nous traverserons les vignobles. En ce qui concerne ma mère. J'ai décidé de mettre un terme définitif à notre relation. Et ce pour 5 raisons : 1. Elle ne peut s'empêcher de juger les gens. Elle pense que la critique (négative) est une façon de se mettre en valeur. 2. Elle est incapable d'écouter. 3. Elle ne sait pas se remettre en question. 4. Elle est excessivement orgueilleuse. C'en est franchement ridicule. Reconnaître une erreur est pour elle un signe de faiblesse. 5. Elle est snob. Le fait qu'elle fréquente un bon à rien égoïste (qui s'est contenté d'hériter et qui n'était rien avant cela) n'aide pas. Je termine sur une note plus joyeuse: je me suis acheté un olivier que j'ai placé sur la terrasse. Comment 1 Love the picture, splendid family !!! As for the mother bit... It's hard to give a comment, but surely if she really behaves like that (and it's not you overemphasising her behaviour) it might be hard to have a relationship... I had a lot of rows with my mother, fortunately she is ok now, and we get well with each other, but it was bloody hard before and I never enjoyed the quarrels... Posted by Lox at 2008/07/25 18:05:35.
