Everybody knows - Leonard Cohen

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gxd23UVID7k

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Tout le monde sait que les dés sont pipés

Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Tout le monde marche avec les doigts croisés

Everybody knows that the war is over
Tout le monde sait que la guerre est finie

Everybody knows the good guys lost
Tout le monde sait que les gentils ont perdu

Everybody knows the fight was fixed
Tout le monde sait que le combat était truqué

The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
Les pauvres restent pauvres, les riches continuent de s'enrichir

That's how it goes
C'est comme ça que ça se passe

Everybody knows
Tout le monde le sait

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Tout le monde sait que le bateau fuit

Everybody knows that the captain lied
Tout le monde sait que le capitaine a menti
.....

Trees are life, and green is the color of hope …
As desperate as the reality currently is, hope for (new) life is justified.
This is what these wonderful nature pictures convey to me.
I wish you a peaceful and contemplative Advent, dear Eric.

I'm afraid that we are the only guarantors of our future - at least that's what I'm learning from life, without which it's of little interest (it's the lesson I'm learning as I approach retirement, where I hope to find the energy that will exceed that which I've always put into the companies where I've worked, in the interests of their shareholders).

Comme le dit fort justement Ulrich cette superbe capture et la chanson désabusée de Leonard vont si bien ensemble..... les couleurs et l'énergie des arbres et de la végétation ne sont qu'espérance pourtant mais se cachent les nuages gris du ciel et les désillusions. J'adore votre photo très cher Eric et vous savez combien j'aime les arbres dans cette nature de la Beauce si riche en trésors de toutes sortes.******************************************************************* Merci pour le partage du tout... Bisous à toute la tribu

prächtige alte Bäume säumen den Weg in dieser wunderschönen Natur, Eric.
Ein Weg, den es sicher lohnt an warmen Tagen zu spazieren und das Grün zu genießen.
Freundliche Grüße und einen guten Abend
Erich

great photo - i like the contrast level and the lighting. has a great grey feel even though there's lots of green.

but oh, not Leneord Cohen! (sorry, not a fan - but that's okay, everyone can have their likes and dislikes)

Eric Desjours ^club has replied to raingirl ^club

Leonard Cohen is, in this case, only a support for what I want to express through this composition, Laura (and implicitly through my title). Whatever the medium, your opinion of my words matters more to me - especially coming from you!
In any case, I thank you so much for your opinion about my picture!

Eric Desjours ^club has added

Everyone knows, or should know, today, that the smallest path traced by man through nature for his own selfish needs, and often to the detriment of nature, and which we may still find admirable, is in the end a path traced towards his own grave. That we must revise our integral conception of our relationship with nature, with that of the other men on our planet, if we want to avoid the collapse of our civilization and its suicide. Leonard and I are not saying anything else, and this is audible, I have no doubt, to your ears.

Of course I understand. I work everyday to have as little impact on the world as possible, and instead to focus on enjoying the nature around me. Beauty and hope can lead the way.
