"Não há normas. Todos os homens são excepção a uma regra que não existe." Fernando Pessoa "Il n’y a pas de norme. Tous les êtres sont des exceptions à une règle qui n’existe pas." #resilience2021 Contre la force du racisme et de l’exclusion qui montent en France encore, ne dire qu’une seule chose : toute vie compte. Je sens qu’il faudrait d’urgence faire circuler nos récits de résilience et de courage pour se nourrir les uns les autres un peu plus parce que c’est fou, tous et toutes, ce qu’on a traversé (...)

Resilience mini-diary, day 3. Spring
