Ouiii, c'est fini!!! Juste pour que le plus grave commence... mais, quand-même, ça fait du bien de terminer une longue période pénible de tests et autres plaisirs mentaux... Voilà, depuis un bon moment ma vie tournait un peu autour de ça... Et là maintenat je me dis... mais est-ce que ça vaut la peine?? A quoi ça sert finalement d'asservir sa vie comme ça?? Dans un but assez abstrait - on étudie pour se trouver du travail après, n'est-ce pas? Et on me dit que l'esclavage était aboli?!?! On se rend l'existence difficile maintenant à l'unif pour pouvoir se la rendre difficile pendant toute notre vie après! Je ne vois pas la logique... Et puis, ces réflexions m'ont rappelé la chanson que je vous mets ci-dessous. J'espère que vous aimez bien la country...

Tim McGraw - Live Like You Were Dyin'






He said: "I was in my early forties,
"With a lot of life before me,
"An' a moment came that stopped me on a dime.
"I spent most of the next days,
"Looking at the x-rays,
"An' talking 'bout the options an' talkin’ ‘bout sweet time."
I asked him when it sank in,
That this might really be the real end?
How’s it hit you when you get that kind of news?
Man whatcha do?

An' he said: "I went sky diving, I went rocky mountain climbing,
"I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu.
"And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter,
"And I gave forgiveness I'd been denying."
An' he said: "Some day, I hope you get the chance,
"To live like you were dyin'."

He said "I was finally the husband,
"That most the time I wasn’t.
"An' I became a friend a friend would like to have.
"And all of a sudden goin' fishin’,
"Wasn’t such an imposition,
"And I went three times that year I lost my Dad.
"Well, I finally read the Good Book,
"And I took a good long hard look,

"At what I'd do if I could do it all again,
"And then:
"I went sky diving, I went rocky mountain climbing,
"I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu.
"And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter,
"And I gave forgiveness I'd been denying."
An' he said: "Some day, I hope you get the chance,
"To live like you were dyin'."

Like tomorrow was a gift,
And you got eternity,
To think about what you’d do with it.
An' what did you do with it?
An' what can I do with it?
An' what would I do with it?

"Sky diving, I went rocky mountain climbing,
"I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu.
"And then I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter,
"And I watched Blue Eagle as it was flyin'."
An' he said: "Some day, I hope you get the chance,
"To live like you were dyin'."

"To live like you were dyin'."
