“Nobody is that old that doesn't believe they can live for another year.” (Cícero)

“Nobody is that old that doesn't believe they can live for another year.” (Cícero)

"The world will come back and I will come back with him!"

We live in times of uncertainty, because nobody knows if and when he will be able to live his life again. The present times of life are giving us a lesson. As Juan Fangio said. “I believe that when people think they are going to die, they become much more generous”, I wanted to say with this phrase that we have to be less selfish and more supportive, less materialistic and more humanistic. So we walk with a “load” of strange feelings, the moments of uncertainty dominating our lives and those we love, in the feeling that maybe (as we wish) we are on the path of the summer of our lives, and when that moment comes I believe that there will be sun and heat so that we can associate ourselves with an infinite desire to go out and celebrate the return to a normal life.
In these moments we feel that we are all the same, the rich and the poor, the illiterate and the literate, the young and the young… but we all have to listen in silence…. Wake up! In general, we all feel that we are experiencing a historic moment in which nothing will ever be the same, as Tom Phillips wrote in his book Humans: “We have so often placed ourselves on the edge of the abyss, about to take a step forward, which is a miracle that we are not yet extinct. ”
In the passing moments, whether we like it or not, we are all afraid of the infinite. But it is in the corner of our strong convictions that we must act, in these imperative and conscious moments. When are we going to stop being afraid to look away? As someone said, “we can live without water and food for days, but not a second without hope. It is what makes us look to the future with the optimism that better days will come ”.
By myself I want to tell you that “I have my agenda” with all the pages blank, as if there was no future. And in fact in these moments we have the feeling that there is not. But there is the present - and my gift is to think that in a little while I will walk my Junior! This is perhaps the most difficult moment in the life of all of us and that is why we must focus on what is essential: preserving health, not only ours, but everyone's. As Hippocrates said: “There are truly two different things: to know and to believe that you know. Science consists of knowing; in believing that we know lies ignorance. ”
