The Mad Mute

About Me

The first time i met myself was in a mirror image. And i'm not finished scrutinizing what unfolds before my eyes. Life has its twisted ways to reveal itself through us, people we meet, things that happen to us, but life is neither cruel nor sweet, it is what it is, only our perceptions make us judgmental...
"You are hopeless romantic who falls in love with scenarios, not people!" (E.T) I'm also a hopeless perfectionist who wants to change the world (Reality says: "Knock knock, who's this? It's me, moron!"

La connaissance de soi est une longue route sinueuse, où à chaque borne, un sphinx vous arrete et vous pose une enigme...on ne se connait vraiment qu'à travers nos epreuves.
