Splendor in the Grass

I haven't posted anything for quite a will now *understatement*. I hope all of you had some nice Christmas holidays, and it still is time to wish you a wonderful year :)

After my trip in Asia, I took some time to reflect on these amazing months in South East Asia, put my life back on tracks and connect with some friends. I also met new interesting people, started a new job and found a new flat. So, yeah, these last weeks have been quite busy!

It takes a lot of time to browse the internet, find something relevant, to talk about on the blog and look for more precise sources. In the next weeks, I'm gonna have to spend some time familiarizing myself with my new work environment (e-business, electronic publishing... Challenging and exciting new stuff ;) ). Consequently, I don't think I can promise you  regular posts...for now!

A few months ago, while looking for some info on "Splendor in the grass", a 1961 movie, I stumbled upon this William Wordsworth poem, which is a great way to end this post. Take care guys!

What though the radiance
 which was once so bright
 Be now for ever taken from my sight,
 Though nothing can bring back the hour
 Of splendour in the grass,
 of glory in the flower,
 We will grieve not, rather find
 Strength in what remains behind;
 In the primal sympathy
 Which having been must ever be;
 In the soothing thoughts that spring
 Out of human suffering;
 In the faith that looks through death,
 In years that bring the philosophic mind.
