Ecrire pour ne pas mourir | Agnes KRAIDY | TEDxGrandBassam


[Music]
I will start by removing my watch
because it’s about managing time
I have fifteen minutes is not it
give me 15 minutes to talk
immortality
already that everything is skewed 15 minutes
I started by telling myself when entering
here at 1 pm that time does not
would not pass
and the time spent to confirm that
we are mortals of mortals who
talk about a mortality
I do not know if it’s possible
15 minutes is what I could talk
of the motel time it’s more time I
I do not know but in all
case I think that all who are
succeeded on this stage in confirmed
that it is possible to dream and therefore
believe we can go through the time that
we are allotted and even mark of
time and go beyond time the
dream of each of us is
certainly so in fact as said
samuel not be in this world do not
mark this world to his presence at these
acts and not his actions
fifteen minutes to talk
immortality
I already refused two minutes I
believe I have more than 13 left
minutes to talk about an immortal subject
before speaking in the morning and I you
spoke of bassam
a sum to bassam I have the chance
I spent a chance but I was born
a month of daily says not one year
far from here
I breathe the air of bassanne since
my birth
so I’m glad he’s at
bassam the bassam I was talking about
she fights sam there too the basin of
the sea the bassam of water the bassam of
travels the bassam meetings
all the comings and goings of
bassam waves
yes that’s also my Bassam me this
basam from the beginning of the restart
who install us meet
of eternity while knowing that we
are poor mortals
and then there is this bassam I like
a lot this old bridge does not suppose
symbol this point which we roots in
the story this pot it reminds us
that women at the market they have
defeated that they have gained the point of
the victory is the victory of
the human on time proof this point
is always there to mark it we
recalls that one day in December 1949
women at the market
they traveled this bridge but who at the
time a bridge that connects bassam the old
bassam of cattier france this bridge which
brings us closer to this bridge that moves us
but this port that marks both
the story and this bridge they’re telling us
time and that tells us
even though we are mortals we
let’s go through time and if we
are here today it’s because
others before cross on this bridge and
have allowed as much to be defeated this
basin what I like so these are so
these women there December 24, 1949 network
market they are shaking the ground
from bassam el to the fact vibrate the land of
bassam and dared to challenge the colon
what I like in this bassam is the
bassam of the daring women who
risk their lives to save love
because yes the woman is love and
that the woman is love and gives
birth to the screw is that to overcome
also the time 7la fits in
eternity
this is where immortality is
fed them they all died his
fans the merchant 49
but we are a little bit of their
heirs a little of their heirs and
his babies pursue life
that for me too mortalities
to give life to life, which itself
gives life to the city ​​itself
continue to give life that’s it
beautiful baby sleeping and carrying life
in him that ‘s my bassam to me too
the basin the immortal the basin
kindergarten and then bassam it’s also
this the time that passes the heap that is
past he would miss this cursed minutes
the time that passes we are here
since 13 hours time passes and he
is soon 18 hours we thought
stop it we have the technology
we won our hopes we
have said our hopes to life but
the time he’s gone and the time
who passes it here that leaves
marks on ourselves this time we do not
can not stop it
what are we doing to stop it when
he can act and curse us let ourselves
to age to let oneself be worn by time
and live with serenity
I like this old gentleman who is
very safe and we hired to
keep hope and hope at the
life and then at bassam it’s also this
because at the end of the process we
we are born we are aging we are moving
you remind us that mortals
yes we are mortals but me this
what I dream of is not not to
to die but to die without dying
to die she is now life
to be buried medoc beyond these
graves of the earth of the flow
and to feed her
but to go beyond because of my
living
I would have been alive enough to
mark my time and that dying this is
not be buried in this beautiful
Volume of dying is continuing to live
is lively
you all have left
marks left traces made of
gestures posed of esat carry out actions
is present ag yes die
this pen is beautiful and the
light and fine a little breath
and she flies away but this feather for
me it’s the symbol of what
maybe left as a trace of life of
the human if today we are here
to remember these marches
grand-bassam of 49
it’s because people have taken their
pen to write the light the
feather she wrote
she has the weight of history is there the
weight of immortality
she has the weight of timelessness she
has the weight of temporality
that’s the feather and screamed left
marks left traces
written by essence one you do not care
bowls
write to snatch life from death
written to affirm his commitment to
live yes you fuck me the balls
you are 50 years old so you have to go
your time going to school
had to do it it was good you had
build your life in ten years
now I know that in time I try
but enough grain
I will reap the fruits of what
I suffered
and then no we offer you you have
a cancer what do you do
die you hang your life for
I wrote it was that and clips
approached life but mostly written
to say my refusal to die and that’s
that immortality refused to die
it’s already being immortal denied
only ace sale by cancer is
already be immortal in countries
like ours where the word cancer rhyme
with death it is obvious that to resist
to cancer ca fits into a form
immortality
but mostly writing is key to that
others tomorrow more support
the unbearable to write
for said yes cancer may have seen it
but he did not live with me because I
fucked him the booms
he fucked me with it, I told him
said yes you fuck me the balls
and I have I will continue to live
writing this important writing because
writing allows us 2 withstands time
today we are studying montesquieu
in our universities
we are studying at 10 in gold or in our
universities our students ahmadou
kourouma in our universities
we are proud to say that bernard
centennial dadie but if the art and what
tomorrow from benhadj basin docks
it’s because he will not have written because
that he does not want any more hears so for
me
immortality do not have the time that
we pass on his lands that’s what
we do our life wished
be brief, long
that she be in whatever they are
rich they are poor but
to be a life marked by a
presence that assumes itself as being
inscribed in time but be well
aware that the time that passes
and who belongs to him he can actually
is that the fuse and I like
besides this quote from this
American singer Joan Baez that
I really like who tells us this you
will not have the leisure to choose when
and how are you going to die but you
can decide how you want
live
[Applause]
and that is for me a mortality
immortality it’s not about not
to die is to die without dying
these two parts while staying that’s
to leave a lot of care behind
self is to assume one’s destiny of being
mortal because he is enrolled in
the DNA of all you put that we are
that in our life process what
guaranteed death everything that is
does between the two between the moment
we are born German we live and
that we die his denouement which
belong to us to build us
to mark our presence here above
was then me what I ask you
tonight you want to die
yes you do not have a choice you go
die we’re going to die a greenhouse
stop in fear we are going to die
we are going to cry to go to suffer
we are going to cry because of being
dear we leave and he leaves but yes
we are going to die but the other question
is it dying and that
you will definitely die or is it
that you die you continue to live
eternally
it depends on us living or dying
I have chosen me to die or to live
both to die and to live in the same
time to die while living and of
live without dying because this is
possible
Thank you
[Applause]
