dans la vie, faut pas s'en faire

Dans la vie faut pas s'en faire
Moi je ne m'en fais pas
Ces petites misères
Seront passagères
Tout ça s'arrangera
Je n'ai pas un caractère
A me faire du tracas
Croyez-moi sur terre
Faut jamais s'en faire
Moi je ne m'en fais pas

from the chorus of 'Dans la vie, faut pas s'en faire' by Maurice Chevalier

Another new song learned today though I must admit it was quite a lullaby! In midst of keeping myself awake during the class, like many French songs; this one sends a reminder, as said by its song title, 'in life, you should not worry'.

Ca n'avance a rien d'etre triste
Le vrai moyen pour etre heureux
C'est de vouloir etre optimiste
En se disant demain ca ira mieux
Au lieu betement qu'on recrimine
Disons-nous que dans l'univers
Il n'y a pas de medaille sans revers

Il n'y a pas de roses sans epines
C'est pourquoi me riant du sort

J'ai chante et je chante encore

Il n'y a pas de roses sans epines - there is no rose without thorns
what an unique way to describe the hurdles in life & really, that's the kind of beauty I see in the French language and probably why I'm so in love with it! there's some way I feel I can relate better to the language than with any other languages - like they say, some French words just can't be translated or explained in English! it's an unique sense of affinity. like how I fell in love with works by Marcel Proust cos I felt some connection with his works! French comes naturally to me and it just grows on me everytime I am in touch with anything French! Pourquoi francais? and many times I find it hard to explain why... probably the best reason I can find; je pense je suis francais dans ma vie precedente! what a wishful thinking!

Here I am, into my next session of classes! I am so grateful that I am able to continue the classes! Only pity is I will miss my professor! He is just such a nice guy, and everyone would just agree! I can't thank him more for his patience, guidance, understanding and attention! And for forming part of the reinforcement and drive for me to do well!

At this time when I'm questioning about the decision I've made... I saw another strong beam of light ahead of me, leading me to follow on... making my little mind so preoccupied & filled with excitement... that at least, I can quit worrying about things that have already been decided and have no turning back for.

Looking ahead, I felt anticipation... I have so much to look forward to. my goals. my ideals.

I'm so thankful for everything.
