At the end of the day, when the sun goes down, the flowers slowly close and we ask ourselves what the day was like, only one thing should be important: Was it a day when we could make someone happy? Was it a day we could make someone laugh? It is not always money that makes us happy, it is small gestures that are sometimes insignificant to us and that can mean so much. A smile can change the world.
Once the largest royal residence in the world, the Louvre is now the third largest museum in the world. Since the Louvre Museum opened in 1793, its collection has grown to more than 380,000 objects, of which approximately 35,000 are currently on display. The building is located in the centre of Paris between the right bank of the Seine and Rue de Rivoli. Its courtyard is on the historic axis that stretches from the bell tower of the church of St-Germain-l’Auxerrois to the glass entrance pyramid of the Louvre and the Grande Arche in La Défense, with the Champs-Élysées at its core.
Have you ever noticed while visiting a church that the statues of the Mother of God and Jesus are placed in such a way that sunlight always falls on their faces? Churches have always had a great architectural design. The sound of the organ can be heard in every corner of a church and all of this without the architects having technical aids at the time. Believing or not believing. Churches are a place of peace and quiet. They have always fascinated people. Churches have survived storms, fires and wars. Churches were and always will be a place of peace.
