“The world is a book, and those who sit at home read only one page.” (Saint Augustine)

“The world is a book, and those who sit at home read only one page.” (Saint Augustine) Thinking is therefore difficult whenever it is not a question of repeating what others think or what has already been thought. We have to be strong. Because in these times that are not our times, it takes a lot of courage to take a risk in an uncertain future. Maybe that's why sometimes we miss what we thought we had but never had. Sometimes we discover ourselves through the eyes of others. We strip ourselves of uncertainties, through approval, affection and unconditional love, with which the gazes in which we mirror ourselves are expressed. As if we uncovered ourselves from what we thought we were, and saw ourselves, in our very essence…” I have thoughts that, if I could reveal them and make them come to life, would add new light to the stars, new beauty to the world, and greater love to the hearts of mankind. men.” (Fernando Pessoa) At a given moment, we need ourselves in ourselves, because whether we like it or not, life goes on….and, maybe that's why we understand that being alone is “normality”. They say that to feel good alone is to be well resolved! Maybe it's time to remember that the game of life is what really matters, because in a way, the journey through life makes us more demanding in what we seek and what we accept. We learn to reject what doesn't resonate, we lose patience with bullshit hypocrisies, and we abolish “whatever”. Limbo leaves us on a tightrope, and that creates hives in the soul…” For me, thinking is living and feeling is nothing more than the food of thinking. To act, that is true intelligence. I'll be whatever you want. But I have to want whatever. Success lies in being successful, not in being able to succeed.” (Fernando Pessoa) We have to realize that at that moment when all our arguments went in one ear and out the other, the color of our gaze on the world changes, and instinctively rejects what does not add, does not resonate and does not magnify. The coldness of logical thinking has no place in that dialogue. It's time to shut up and leave her alone with what's on her mind until she wakes up to life, because it's useless to want to hurry the other's pace, and you need to know how to wait because we know that everything passes, as Fernando said People ." Everything that arrives always arrives for a reason. Because I am the size of what I see. And not the size of my height...”
