This morning the moon seems to wink at me, it always knows something more than me, perhaps this is why it accompanies me in my breath and guides my steps as a traveler in this land even when lame or the frenzy of arriving would make me fly to my destination. For everything, however, there is a time and mine, this moon, controls and guards … Continua a leggere Good Life, Good Moon
picture by Andrea Morra, Lago di Molveno, Trento Here we are.The counting of the days will quickly turn into the counting of the hours and then of the minutes until that void for me silent will envelop me, taking me to an perhaps uninhabited elsewhere until I find my way back.This is still the time to be strong, lucid, to support those who make that … Continua a leggere This Is the Time
Since I was a child I have learned two essential lessons: from every fall you can get up again, and action corresponds to a consequence. It is called responsibility. Responsibility towards oneself and towards others, the two are neither separate nor separable.Falling and learning to get up gave me the strength of self-esteem and the courage not to consider myself perfect. Recognizing that every action … Continua a leggere Think Before Acting

Yet, your sweetness remains, to the point that the clouds have allowed the sun to reveal itself only partially and that same soft and shiny sky that … Continua a leggere Indomitable Moon
In illness there is a double point of observation, the one of the patient and the one of the others.That of the patient, if he manages to be serene and not to feel sorry for himself, is a vision that opens, increases, frees. The point of observation of the other is often limited and reductive, focusing on the other on one thing only: your sick … Continua a leggere Sickness, a Double Vision

Last night, I open the balcony of my kitchen and from the … Continua a leggere Infinity
Even in this very precarious and complex moment, writing marks a course in my life and allows me to say everything that for love or distraction (it doesn’t matter), you often don’t want to listen. I don’t know what the conclusion of everything that happens will be, nor if there really is a destination, but I know for sure that not giving in, not collapsing, … Continua a leggere A Smile Is My Inheritance
A leaf that has fallen from a branch is not really dead, although the course and destiny of its life may be different.I am not referring only to its decay in the undergrowth of which it becomes nourishment for the earth and for insects, shelter and protection for the life hidden from the eyes of the profane. I am referring to the life that such … Continua a leggere Transience
There are people who have everything, all things, but have nothing because they lack the only thing that really matters: tenderness.They have objects, possessions, riches, privileges, they are surrounded by people, but they are profoundly alone because they lack tenderness.They are people who scream for power, proclaim wealth and knowledge, but do not know virtue and conscience as they lack tenderness.They are poor people because … Continua a leggere Tenderness
