Essai illustré "En quête d'essence"
<p>It all started from an intuition that came up four years ago. I felt something weird...Like a need to lay down words that were blocked within my guts to fly on my own. "It will someday have to come out", told me an acquaintance. I aspired to more freedom. I needed oxygen. Something had to change. A shift was getting closer... <br />

<p><em>"Intuition", En quête d'essence</em><br />
</p>
<p>The skeleton of this book appeared little by little, along the encounters I was priviledged to make along my path. A surprising energy flow was often connecting me to people. I was learning among my peers. I understood that my project was far from a coincidence. The essence is right there, within us. It contributes to our balance on a daily basis. </p>

<p><em>"Equilibre", En quête d'essence</em><br />
</p>
<p>It carries a magic, which is not available in a frenetic society aiming at growth the whole time. The magic comes from the free intentions that we can mutually share and benefit from, from the unforeseeable, simply from life . </p>

<p><em>Cité dans "Béatitude", En quête d'essence</em><br />
</p>
<p>Coming back to our essence requires an individual effort to take the time to step back. The intellect is a democratic resource. We merely need time and perseverance to focus on the essential, getting rid of all the distractions that surround us. </p>

<p><em>"Obstination", En quête d'essence</em><br />
</p>
<p>This change of posture is indispensable in order to give new perspectives to a model of society that is slipping. Beautiful souls already work on it on a daily basis, locally. The more I meet such people, the stronger my faith in our humanity becomes. Although this quest goes through moments of doubts and self-reflection, the obstacles that appear along our path serve our self-flourishment. We only need to accept them as such.</p>

<p><em>"Echec", En quête d'essence</em><br />
</p>
<p>We are master of our fate. Our human resources are huge. It is up to us as a civil society to redefine our priorities on earth and to grow up allocating time and attention to the simple things in life that belong to its essence. <br />
</p>
<p>I hereby would like to thank my first readers, who made this book gain in maturity thanks to their feedback full of good faith. I particularly want to thank my wife, who widely enriched this project through her ideas.<br />

I am also grateful to Daphné and Aurélie who both improved this project through their childish illustrations and the creation of a colored lay-out. <br />
