Evolution of love

new experience

Jean experienced life free from memory, with a freshness as if every event were new. He greeted old

friends as if for the first time and welcomed those he had just met as if they were old friends.

He took nothing and no one for granted.

He might stop abruptly, taken by the shape of clouds or the play of light or the eyes of a baby

or animal. What struck those in his company was how free from preconceptions he was and how

he experienced everything as if for the first time and with a sense of exploration like a young child.

He had a boundless energy for living and seeing things in a new way and it made his companionship

a real joy, no matter the activity. Spending time with him always had the quality of a new experience.
