Life and Opinions of an Artist ; "A Time For Dreamers"

I was in staying in a hotel in Paris and shared a room with a handicapped woman (Southern European) who said she was a journalist . She was saying that it was a general conviction and  thought that money:  was valuble coloured paper which could do good things but had no perfume or colour (meaning that it was good from whereever it came from ) .... No one in their right minds judged the way it looked .... no one asked it  questions (like why are you carrying so many bags?) no one said : You stink of pertol or blood or semen.  Nobody really cared to ask it :" where do you come from" and or why are you here ?  .... An intelligent woman who talked about the dark net as if she knew it well ,  she would be saying such silly things ..... because that was in the past when no one talked about the origins of things ....   now a days certain people want to know everything about the steak they eat .....  which animal is it coming from and when and wher...

comment: As a university student i was not happy when a fellow student in Florence´s  Italian university called me an extra Europea .... it was as if she belonged to an "exclusive club" and it felt like a closed space ....  it reminded me of when i had been called "coloured" by a small child when going to primary school in London in the seventies  (and i didnt know anything about Racism or the white suprematists ) i didnt understand the implications of being from a different race because i was seven years old and had never been called such a thing before.  Later on another university student introduced me to the publication called "línternazionale" which was close to my heart and opinions because it considered all of humanity ..... Just the other day i saw a post on Face book about Brexit (by anöther  Italian friend) and it was about How Britain couldn t survive without being part of the European Union....  this sounded rather funny  since Britain c...

I was in Strassberg in France and couldnt pay for a hostel bed and because of xmas all hostels were full.  I am what people call a Bag Lady .... i am an artist painter and i carry my Art Work and other things about with me .  I had taken refuge from the rain in a mosque. A woman ex social worker had told me that she could help me .... she took me to another social worker who asked me many questions including why i hadnt been around for some months (as if not being homeless and needing them was not a good thing !) after many questions asked she reluctantly put me in a 115 place in a room with two other women  both from Africa.  Another two girls who were there had been lucky enough to find a friend (a Man) who would give them hospitality what is known is doing "the putain"  which means relying on men ..... Admittedly i had a lot of bags and carried them on two shopping wheels, but i was shaken first by the man at the reception who ordered me not to move my thin...

Cold War .  The Cold War  was the tense relationship between the United States (and its allies), and the Soviet Union (the USSR and its allies) between the end of World  War  II and the fall of the Soviet Union. It is called  the "Cold "  War  because the US and the USSR never actually fought each other directly. We should look at history !
