Despite everything......


It is difficult to be calm in moments like these, when uncertainty surrounds you. Every day the news overwhelms us with tragedy, without a doubt true, but often manipulated to make the stories more dramatic. It seems that all is going to waste, we are always waiting for new developments in the world of politics and in everyday life. Around you see only sad faces, no one smiles, everyone seems enclosed in their thoughts, not wanting to communicate with others. And it is the circumstances like this that we need to have the courage to overlook, to open ourselves to others, with a kind gesture, a word, a smile… In the desert it happens naturally, each time: let’s try to make this happen also here, letting our thoughts become positive, our hearts light, our faces less tense and distant. Certainly we can’t change the course of events, but we will feel better, ready to face everyday life with more trust and calmness. As the desert teaches us, the great mystery of life.
