Bonjour, chère Laurie, Je viens de parcourir rapidement vos pages d'information et je suis très impressionné par la richesse contenue. En lisant, je retrouvais, peu à peu, les plus belles années de ma vie, quand je lisais beaucoup et, Dieu sait, que nos lectures se ressemblent beaucoup. Longtemps, j'ai été un disiciple de M. Gandhi, M. Luther King, et Bob Marley. Je suis sûr que je mettrais plusieurs mois pour essayer de lire toutes les pensées contenues dans vos pages. Merci. Une autre chose qui m'impressionne c'est votre regard d'aigle, précis et puissant, qui semble aller au fond de la chose regardée. Mes compliments, chère amie; vous êtes belle. Dernière mais pas moins, en disant "quand j'avais 55 ans", vous parlez de qui? Moi, j'ai 56 ans et je ne peux croire que tu aurais mon age, presque. Je pense avoir trouvé une personne exceptionnelle. Hello, dear Laurie, I just quickly browsed your pages of information and I am very impressed by the contained richness. In reading, I found, little by little, the best years of my life, when I read a lot, and God knows, that our readings are very similar. For a long time, I was a disiciple of Mr. Gandhi, Mr. Luther King, and Bob Marley. I am sure that I could spend several months trying to read all the thoughts contained in your pages. Thank you. Another thing that impresses me is your eagle eye, precise and powerful, that seems to go to the heart of the thing considered. My compliments, dear friend; you are beautiful. Last but not least, in saying, "when I was 55," you speak of whom? I am 56 years old and I can't believe that you would be almost my age. I think I found an exceptional person.
