I've been living in the south of France since Sept. 2008.
I am interested in Today I would just say : I'm just living. With a peculiar feeling of absurdity when I inevitably face the mechanisms of this world.. My favorite music are Radiohead,The Mars Volta,Queens Of The Stone Age,Rage Against The Machine,Tool,Puscifer,Yoko Kanno,San Severino,Mayra Andrade,Stevie Ray Vaughan,Jimi Hendrix,Blonde Redhead,Bat for Lashes,PJ Harvey,Portishead,Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man,Shiina Ringo,Yui Makino. Movies: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. TV: Battlestar Galactica,Stargate SG-1,The Big Bang Theory,The IT Crowd. Books: L'homme nu,Les Cantos d'Hypérion,Chroniques de l'oiseau à ressort,Soie,Janua Vera,Le Trône de Fer. My Heros are I have no hero. Once I noticed this tendency of humans in worshiping others (within me),this trend of measuring myself with others simply started to decrease,[something like that at least ] ....

Island harmony
The Anutans have their own word for this, "aropa", which means love and compassion.
It is an ideology that is applied to almost everything they do.
You can see it at work in the way food and tasks are shared, but it goes further than this.

Bizarrely they even adopt each other's children.
Joseph's oldest daughter was adopted by a couple who gave him their son in return a few years later.
When I asked Joseph about this, he simply said that it was not an issue as Anutans saw children as communal.
What was important was that everyone who wanted a child had one.
So if a couple was childless for any reason they would be perfectly entitled to ask another family member or friend if they could have their next child.
Both mother and father have to agree but requests are seldom refused.
