Christine L'Heureux: Bonjour. Mon nom est Christine L'Heureux. Hello, my name is Christine L'Heureux.
I was born during a period when there were a lot of Annette, Jeannette, and Collette. I find Christine has a much nicer ring to it.
J'ai toujours beaucoup aimé ce nom. Je suis née à une période où il aurait été facile que je m'appelle Annette, Jeannette, ou Collette. Christine, quelle belle sonorité!
As much as my last name is pre-determined, it's such a lovely name. In French, heureux means happiness. For me, it's like a star in the distance forever calling to me. All my life, I have chased a star called happiness. Now that I am older, I have realized that happiness is in the small, simple pleasures of everyday life. The eternity of the here and now, that is happiness.
Et comme nom de famille, c'est prédestiné. Mon nom appelle au bonheur et il contient tout un programme de vie en deux syllabes. Pour moi, c'est comme une étoile à l'horizon qui m'appelle de regarde.
Toute ma vie de cette l'objectif, le bonheur, et je le découvre en avançant en âge qu'il c'obtienne dans les petits plaisirs de la vie ordinaire, l'éternité de l'ici et maintenant.
