Give a taste to everything

Yesterday morning I found in my PC some words from a book I read last summer: E' una vita che ti aspetto, by Fabio Volo. Someone will say that it speaks only about sex... But it isn't true. This book tells the story of a crisis. I thought: Oh dear, there are more people in crisis than I can imagine. Well, it doesn't seem, does it?

It probably happens when we are about 30 years old. We try to take stock of our lives: where have I arrived? Which goals have I reached? Am I satisfied? Where do I want to arrive?

I think it's wonderful, even if it can make us a little sad.

But the words I referred to liked me for another reason. The protagonist asks himself if things have a taste for themselves, or if they receive a taste by meeting everyone of us.

It's an interesting thought: it gives us a great power, the possibility to control things. You see, perfumes have a different smell according to different skins. So different people have different perceptions. It depends on us. We probably have a wide margin of choice.
Yesterday morning I felt a little sad when I woke up. I didn't want to get up and come in Milan to work. But when I was in my car I saw the pink sun and I thought about my little interior sun.

Yesterday was a beautiful day.

I want to share a present

Every Monday don Marco sells to his friend a short tale, as a wish for the next week. I'm part of the group. so today I receive a present and I want to share it with you. The tale ended with this sentence:
«I believe in you» is much more than a declaration of love. It's the purest power that exists.
I think so and I liked it so much that someone reminded it to me.

You can find the complete tale here (italian):
