В последние дни часто думаю о роли простых мелочей в нашей жизни, о том, как они мозаикой создают настрой на весь день, на неделю,на месяц вперед. Совсем маленькие, такие незаметные с первого, замытого, повседневнего взгляда, эти мелочи никогда не претендуют,и уж точно не кричат о своём существовании,а просто ждут приглашения в нашу жизнь. И только от нас зависит, будут ли эти гости нашими маленькими радостями, станут ли они нашими тёплыми друзьями , для которых всегда открыто сердце.
Мой сентябрь я открыла такой " маленькой радостью " как покупка новой книги на английском, а также с очень приятного знакомства с книжным гуру в paradox книжном магазине.

Оливия Лэнг - имя незнакомое для меня,но я с нетерпением жду этих минут, когда я открою эту книгу и начну неспешное чтение. Простые мелочи незаслуженно остаются у нас вне списка наших гостей,и вместо этого мы охотно приглашаем к себе в дом, в наш храм , злость и раздражение, зависть и недовольство,например.

🔤 А с каких простых мелочей (для души) вы открыли свой сентябрь 🔤
Буду рада,если поделитесь

😏"E adesso tocca a te! "
( А теперь это зависит только от вас..) , говорит Кристина Ферреро, психолог из Италии,которого регулярно слушаю. Нравится она мне, нравится ее подход.

Немного итальянского сегодня ))

About films ........

" LAST NIGHT IN NEW YORK "
(2010)

A small-scale, indulgent but worthwhile movie from a writer director Massy Tadhedin, about infidelity, jealisy and the quater-life crisis .
Sam Worthington and Keira Knightley play Michael and Joanna, a couple who have been married for around four years ,and who who went out for a while before that, in a period in which they broke up and got together again. There's also Laura ( Eva Mendes) ,who clearly finds Michael attractive ..... very attractive 😏

This is a talky film,and arguably a little exasperating,but it is targeted at grown-ups, and addresses the grown-up issue of monogamy . Should we always follow our desires? Is there any future for relationship which cracked ?

I rewatched the film the second time since I had done it first with my student couple of years ago. I remember talking a lot and 10 questions weren't enough to cover all the ethical points of the movie.

🌻LITTLE DID WE KNOW ABOUT COSMOPOLITAN...🌻

Hi, my friends

Today, I'm here for telling you about Cosmo history and sharing with you the latest October-November issue 🫴
( the pdf will be attached below)

The year was 1886 ❗️, a time when corsets were cinched, and society was more buttoned-up than a Victorian waistcoat. Enter Cosmopolitan Magazine, not just a publication but a brazen disruptor of the status quo. Born in the era of petticoats and parlor conversations, Cosmo was the breath of fresh air that society didn’t know it needed.

Originally founded as The Cosmopolitan in March 1886 by Schlicht & Field of New York, Cosmopolitan started out as a family and women’s magazine. Paul Schlicht described his journal as a “first-class family magazine” within the front cover to readers of his debut issue. Regretfully, Schlicht and Field had to sell the magazine after filing for bankruptcy after two years. John Brisben Walker purchased the journal in 1889, and was later purchased by William Randolph Hearst in 1905 and the magazine was directed towards politics, but later included short stories and poems.  Helen Gurley Brown became chief editor of Cosmopolitan magazine in 1965. This woman made the decision to capitalize on the modern movement and present a hitherto unexplored aspect of sex to the public. This led to an unprecedented growth which  turned Cosmopolitan into the best-selling women’s magazine worldwide.

This isn’t just a magazine; it’s the lifestyle manual for the bold, the fierce, and those who believe that life should be lived at full throttle.
If you’ve ever wondered about love, career, fashion, or the complexities of the modern human experience while simultaneously contemplating the perfect lipstick shade for world domination, then congratulations – you’re Cosmo material.

So,that's what you might not have known about Cosmopolitan Magazine, which is sold by more than 3 000 000 copies only in the USA ❗️

Ive read the issue from cover to cover and here are my picks :

1️⃣Representation isn't a trend - it's a necessity

2️⃣Could you go phone sober ?

3️⃣Love. AI dating advice

There are definitely more articles to pick and choose ,I also found reading Cosmo very useful language-wise , a gateway into modern English .

Have a calm autumn week without too much stress if it is possible ❤️
