Simplicity


As always, every negative event brings with it also a positive side and the crisis that basically all of us are experiencing, confirms this. We have the opportunity to discover, day after day, new values that in past years we have forgotten: the enjoyment of staying at home, sharing our free time with family, enjoying the small things, finding forgotten pass times we like and having fun with little. Our lives are changing, but not necessarily in a bad way. The essentials and simplicity are taking over, and this makes us more aware and responsible, and helps us face difficulties with serenity. Like all changes, also this one is not easy, but realize that we are capable of finding space and joy also in these conditions that are so different than what we are used to, and anyways a challenge to conquer. Don’t let sadness take over in the face of unforeseen events and lets face them everyday without fear. A smile is enough or a kind gesture to brighten the greyest of days. It doesn’t cost anything but has a great value, for us and for those we encounter along our way: step after step………
