“It is late at night
and someone across the way
is playing “La Vie En Rose”.
It is the French way of saying,
I am looking at the world
through rose-coloured glasses.
It says everything I feel.
I have learnt so many things,
Father.
Not just how to make vichyssoise or
calf’s head with sauce vinaigrette,
but a much more important recipe.
I have learn how to live,
how to be in the world
and of the world…
-and not just to stand aside
and watch.
And I will never, never again
run away from life,
or from love, either.”
- Sabrina (Movie)
