Is there a gap between how you’d like things to be and how they are?Most likely there is, and it hurts.

That’s going to shake things up and take the edge off your pain and discomfort way more than any quick fix could.But being at peace doesn’t necessarily mean being peaceful, and it certainly isn’t being passive; it means embracing life in all its colours.Instead of constantly trying to change our lives, ourselves, or the world around us, just say ‘F**k It’. This is a radical message that can create radical shifts in your perception of life, just as it is.

The publication Brno Architecture Manual: A Guide to Architecture 1900-1918 is conceived as a topographic guide consisting of 184 objects of various types - important public buildings (including religious and commercial buildings), private rental housing, villas and some of the first examples of housing built by building cooperatives or associations. These objects (along with period and recent photographs) have been ordered into ten walking trails and seven short excursions to more distant sites. The tours come with modern and historical maps that clearly show the development of the given location, information about public transport access and the starting point of the tour, and a short introduction. For each tour, the buildings are organized with a view a logical walking order and ease of access via public transport.

The largest urban renewal project in the history of the Czech lands significantly changed the face of the historic ... Unknown localization key: "more"
