Brel said talent is something when we really want to do something. now we want to talk about our own experience about love, our own imagination about love and what love actually means to us today.
forget about complicity of expression. forget about any writing skill or any style of roman you have read. we can start with a very simple thing. just think of when the first love came to you? or even before you found something about it, what does it mean to you personally ?
for example i can start with a simple thing:
when i was young, love means a sacrifice to me. in any movie i watched people sacrificed their life for the one they love. it’s something, i guessed, very special and important for human life. in any book, they talk about love. in any song, they wrote about love. love is everywhere in my imagination.
i moved to Phnom Penh when i was 15. love is still presents in any cinema and any book store in town. ….
i will continue when i have time but if you want to share your own experience you can join this workshop. please contact me. i will figure out a place and we can work together.

U want to be doctor LOVE?
no, i just realize we did have difficulty in handling the feeling, and sometime we couldn’t find anyway to express our feeling. the idea of this workshop is to find out something in a simple to speak out our mind. maybe it could help people to understand more about love. i am not sure about the out come but i did want to hear other people think about love and how love affect in their daily life.
