BPP: What is your real dream, the one that keeps you awake at nights and
if one day it will come true, you will feel your heart calm and peaceful?
Angela de la Tour - Yeend: My dream is to know that this world will be okay and
that people can work together so it doesn't implode or explode with all the
stress humans are dumping on it. And also to be with my son who passed away,
sometimes i already dream that anyway.

same life you do?
Angela de la Tour - Yeend: If i was a child again i wouldn't change anything
except maybe tell my mum to really talk to her kids, then maybe i wouldn't have
run away at 14 for good.oh yeh and i'd tell my father that even though i only met him 3 times he deserved to die early, as he planted seeds but was a really terrible gardener.

in your life? How did you feel at this very moment?
Angela de la Tour - Yeend: There was no 'moment' as such, but when i was 17 i
knew that i was going to be an artist and my dream was to drive trucks or a van
and wear overalls and paint or draw on walls one day.i felt relieved but knew
it would not be easy.
