"-Christmas won't be Christmas without presents," Jo muttered, lying on the carpet. "
“… I would have a stable full of Arabian horses, rooms full of books and write with a magical inkwell, which would make my works as famous as Laurie's music. Before entering my castle, I would like to do something admirable that will not be forgotten after my death. I don't know what it will be, but I hope so and one day I plan to surprise them. I think i will write books
to make me famous and rich; that agrees with me, so it's my favorite dream. "

The poppy is a wild and delicate flower. It has been used for a long time as a symbol of peace, sleep and death. It is a special flower. It does not allow to be cut, it decomposes and falls apart quickly. The brilliant color and vibrancy that it presents in the field does not last even a few minutes in our hands. If we want to keep it, to make it remain, it will be necessary to elaborate it, work it in such a way that it does not spoil. The resulting, imperfect, nature will be much more complete and elegant… and will remain.
Love and beauty are the two fundamental challenges of the human being and it takes a lifetime to understand them.
Beauty repairs.
