Picture of the year

Or should I say: "The joy of running"? I saw this picture on a Dutch runner's website, unfortunately they didn't mention who took this fantastic picture. I love cross-country races, it's like playing piggy in the mud. Although I never made a dive like this guy.

 

Believing impossible things

I like this quote from Lewis Carroll's Trough the Looking-Glass, which I read in a novel of Jodi Picoult:

 Alice laughed.  "There's no use trying," she said. "One can't believe impossible things."
"I dare say you haven't had as much practice", said the Queen. "When I was your age I did it for half an hour a day. Why sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast".

When we say creativity is so important, shouldn't we start with believing (again) the impossible?

In Canada ... and it's winter

Beginning of October we moved from France to Canada, with two big suitcases each and Carmen, the cat. The rest of our things were moved in a large container by boat. A week ago the container arrived, so now we're finally settled in our new house in Ontario.
Everybody talks about the winter, especially about the winter beginning of this year when they had a record-braking amount of snow. Difficult to imagine for us, because when we arrived we had temperatures above 20 degrees Celsius.  Two days ago however it has all changed into a winter landscape. Is this the beginning of a long winter?
