Photo was taken on the Champs Elysée, Paris (France)

A trip up both sides of the Champs Elysée is a must for any visitor to Paris. All the most exclusive and designer shops are to be found here. Even though the prices in some of them are ridiculous, there is much to see and do. A visit to the Citroen, Renault or Toyota showrooms is also some sight with a particular emphasis on F1 and world rally cars.

The following is called ‘Life and Love Lessons’ from the Pioneer Magazine

The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word and then walk away feeling as if it was the best conversation you’ve ever had.

It is true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it, but it’s also true that we don’t know what we’ve been missing until it arrives.

It takes only an hour to like someone and a day to love someone but a lifetime to forget someone.

Don’t go for looks because they can deceive. Don’t go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

Always put yourself in the other’s shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may heal and bless.

The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
