What is really the meaning of the word âpeaceâ?
Sometimes people donât understand why I use the term âWarrior of Lightâ since Iâm engaged in a kind of confrontation with life. I do this because I believe that Nature is also in a state of confrontation: springtime against winter, winter against summer, lions against zebras, etc.
For me âpeaceâ is an utopia as far as Nature is concerned.
That said we need to strive for peace among ourselves but we also need to keep in mind that absolute peace is an utopia despite the many attempts of âpeaceâ in the world. Consequently this state of peace may lead to boredom.
In the light of this: Do you really want peace in the world? Have you ever considered that there was never peace in the world and that therefore this goal may simply be unattainable?

As with most things, I like to surprise myself with new ways to bring flowers into the mix⦠This idea is easy and hopelessly inspiring. There is no formula here⦠just using what you may have on-hand already!
New York, 1959. Max Bialystock was once the king of Broadway, but now all his shows close on opening night. Things turn around when he's visited by the neurotic accountant Leo Bloom, who proposes a scheme tailor-made for producers who can only make flops: raise far more money than you need, then make sure the show is despised. No one will be interested in it, so you can pocket the surplus. To this end, they produce a musical called Springtime for Hitler written by escaped Nazi Franz Liebken. Then they get the insanely flamboyant Roger De Bris to direct. Finally, they hire as a lead actress the loopy Swedish bombshell Ulla (whose last name has over 15 syllables). As opening night draws near, what can go wrong? Well, there's no accounting for taste...
