Beauty will save

Muse of Dior, fashion designer, beautiful model and Last love of Vladimir Mayakovsky Tatiana Yakovleva (March 25, 1906 – April 28, 1991)

Last love of Vladimir Mayakovsky Tatiana Yakovleva
One of the most touching stories of Mayakovsky’s life happened to him in Paris when he fell in love with Tatiana Yakovleva. Between them there could be nothing in common. A Russian emigre, chiseled and refined, brought up on Pushkin and Tyutchev, did not take a word from the chopped, hard, ragged poems of a fashionable Soviet poet, an “icebreaker” from the Land of Soviets.
She did not take any of his words at all, even in real life. Fierce, frantic, going ahead, living on his last breath, he frightened her with his unrestrained passion. She was not touched neither by his dog devotion, nor his fame. Her heart remained indifferent. And Mayakovsky left for Moscow alone.

From this instantly flared and not held love, with him remained a secret grief, and with us – a magical poem “Letter to Tatyana Yakovleva” with the words: “I’ll take you one or two with Paris!”

Dramatic fate of Hollywood actress Ingrid Bergman
The fate of beautiful Swedish American actress Ingrid Bergman, boycotted in America and Europe, was really dramatic. And this August 29 (2017) marks 102 years from the date of birth and 35 years since the death of the Hollywood star of the period of its “golden age” Ingrid Bergman. So, why boycotted? In fact, at the peak of her popularity, being the highest paid Hollywood actress, happy mother and beloved wife, she left everything. Particularly, for the sake of the man who caused the boycott of films with Ingrid Bergman in America and Europe. Besides, in her homeland, in Sweden, she was even called a “spot on the flag of the country”. However, she did not regret anything.
Born on August 29, 1915 in Stockholm, Ingrid Bergman got her name after the Swedish princess. Unfortunately, she lost her parents early: her mother died when the girl was 3 years old, and her father passed away as a result of the disease when she was 12. The orphaned girl began to live with her aunt, but she also died prematurely. So, in adolescence, the girl remained completely alone.

Beautiful blonde girl in a wreath. Red Rowan in Slavic mythology

Red Rowan in Slavic mythology
The autumn forest is whimsical and beautiful. How many bright colors there are in it! But among the trees, dressed in yellow outfits, rowan is especially prominent. The heavy clusters of scarlet berries burn in the sun, attracting the attention of people and birds. Sweet aroma fills the air. Birds willingly cherish ripe fruits, and people admire its magical beauty.
Known as sorbus, whitebeam, rowan, service tree, and mountain-ash, it is a tree-amulet used in magic and folk medicine. Considered a magical plant for many centuries, it played an important role in the beliefs and rituals of the ancient Slavs, Scandinavians and Celts. For example, in some places the peasants, when they returned from the cemetery, hung rowan rods over the door, so that the deceased “did not return home.” And in case the deceased turned into a ghoul after death, he was nailed to the ground by a stake, which was sometimes made from rowan. Wanderers made a staff out of mountain ash, chewed it and left a chip in their mouths behind their cheeks so as not to be afraid of any sorcery on the way.

Mysterious tree, or Red maple leaf meaning

Red maple leaf facts
The beautiful red maple leaf has been the national symbol of Canada for over 150 years. Red and white are the official colors of Canada, proclaimed by King George V in 1921. According to historians, maple leaf began to serve as a Canadian symbol as early as 1700. Long before the arrival of European settlers, Aboriginal peoples had already discovered the food properties of maple sap – which they gathered every spring. Since the 1800s, Canadians have paid tribute to the maple leaf many times.
According to Psychologists, Maple is a tree that helps to find peace of mind for people of all types, brings comfort, and self-confidence. It is a tree of inner strength and steadiness. Therefore, maple creates barriers to Darkness. A solar disk carved from maple and hung over the door, maple steps at the entrance to the house, the doorframes of the entrance door from this tree are all defenses against evil forces. Traditionally, people used Maple to build bridges over running water. Running water is an obstacle to dark forces, and maple did not allow these forces to use the bridge.
Also, maple branches, covering the barn, or stuck in the walls, protect cattle from evil eye and spoilage. By the way, a drink from fermented maple juice is a sacred wine of sun worshipers.

In general, Buryats are referred to the Central Asian type of Mongoloid race. However, historically, in the places of their inhabitation in the territory of present-day Siberia the process of mixing Western and Eastern tribes constantly continued.

And it was at this age she really felt self-confidence. As a child, Denise and his sister “got sick” with cinematography. But they did not dream of becoming actresses.

Meanwhile, she secretly fell in love with the idol of her generation John Travolta and promised herself that she would become famous for envy of all who laughed at her.
