Imagine talking to your grandchildren in the future, telling them about Granma Julie - even more time covered.<br />This is something politics never seem to take into consideration: the long lasting memory of their people, because they're always bound for 4 or so years.<br /><br />Paris is closer to me than to you; it has shaken Europe and our beliefs for a borderless and peaceful Europe in a peaceful world - now this seems to be out of reach.<br /><br />But please take the time and come and visit Paris and Europe, it's worth seeing (and I've been to Paris only twice so far), there's much to see and learn.<br />Best wishes<br /><br />ChristineLady Vaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14692900982173810569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-39791852213624574822015-11-24T19:00:21.622-06:002015-11-24T19:00:21.622-06:00America has a long history with France, since the ...America has a long history with France, since the beginning of our country, and it represents so much beauty and culture. I have had a very brief visit in Paris, and I have some friends that have moved there. I was really shaken and grieved by the attacks, too. So sad.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12192064538924964308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-42040422809703207642015-11-24T10:48:57.155-06:002015-11-24T10:48:57.155-06:00*hugs* I hope you do get to go to Paris soon. *hugs* I hope you do get to go to Paris soon.
