Life is often offered to us in a killer tandem: reality+dream; each reality backs up a certain kind of dreaming, each dreaming stands up for a certain kind of reality. Each reality promotes its specific dreams and vicerversa. An unshakable, unalterable tandem. One packing case, served together. And most importantly, each of the two becomes bearable thanks to the other one.

I would be very disappointed if you’d contradict me by invoking Jung, Laplanche, Pontalis, or, God forbid, Freud. Or Sartre. Or romantic poetry. Or Breton’s surrealism. They have nothing to do with this snowy morning of January. The coffee machine’s still snoring and I’m rushing to a conclusion: one man, one tandem.

PS: Erik Satie, Gnossienne no. 1 today.

    @”Alina”: no use changing nicknames and no use posting here. I don’t deal with real idiots. Next time I won’t even bother telling you why you don’t get published.
