CHAPTER 2020

unavailable
 I collect, in some passages, the emotions that we have all experienced.
I wanted to bring to memory the mood which characterized March, April and May.
We have all experienced the same emotions, above all: fear.
Fear is an emotion which normally helps us, which alerts us to the danger, this time it lasted a long time, because the danger was unknown, invisible and maybe, undefeatable.
Now we must stay positive, perceiving the fear like a positive emotion, a friend that protect us.
We all had the same “hobbies”, we tied up drawers and library and we have done many other things we had neglected for the “short amount of time”, but we have learned that time is precious and we shouldn’t waste it.
We have all super clean and sanitized houses, we have all learned to cook pizza, bread and cake.
For a long time we stayed home, telling us “everything will be fine” and “we’ll make it”.
We started to sing from our balconies and terraces, to sunbathe on our balconies; those were the only moments of happiness.
We even shared the same colors: those of our flag.
We were sitting in front of the TV, that March 27, we were praying together with Pope Francesco, hoping he could talk with God on our behalf.
We made it, love has won because we had some for ourselves and for others.
The worst is over, I hope that now the world will be better, I’m sure that in many things something has changed since that 8 March 2020, the day the quarantine began, the day that forced us to see the world from the window overlooking on a huge cemetery.
I really hope that we have left behind the worst parts of us.
