ritrovata

entering the beautiful city of Roma i seem to have entered something like a new phase too

walking from Carol's workplace to San Lorenzo to take a caffé at Giufa was one of the best moments in spite of the rain puoring down on me (protected by a huge green umbrella)

Roma (and on purpose RomA and not RomE!) has been rainy two years ago too at my arrival...it seems sunshine only comes after rain:)

anyways, i wanted to say that Roma is the best of the best because:

- the bulidings are colorful and you see green around you even at
wintertime and it somehow makes you feel good (a thing discussed with
'Professoressa Cravo'...mia cara Carol who at the moment of my arrival was busy
writing an abstract for her study on Urban Green Areas:)

- men constantly notice you which serves as a boost for your ego if you are
there for some days only (afterwards the fact that you are constantly being
fucked by the eyes of complete strangers becomes somewhat disturbing)

- always great exhibitions: this time on Pop Art - which proved to be the
first exhibiton enjoyed more by my angel then me (obviously..it was an
exhibition where brain had to be more active then the heart, therefore he had
the advantage there:)

- always great food - let it be the last takeaway pizza or a gelato eaten
at seven at night (after which you feel completely frozen, but you could not
resist...after all 15degrees celsius is really HOT for you at this time of the
year)... or dinner at some friends' house, or an aperitivo at your favourite and
traditional F&F place at Trastevere:)

- you can feel like a tourist while navigating through the entire
city(not onyl centre) without a map, and even be stopped by locals asking for
directions:)

- it is a city where nothing works but you seem to work perfectly..

- it is a city of your BEAUTIFUL past, and the city where you realize your
present and future are both beautiful (out of negative circles your thoughts
begin to run straight forward and you smile smile smile smile) ..and you dont
even mind it is your turn to console...

- it is here that you are told your most-frequent word is: coccolare
(cuddle)
- here that you realize you emotional roller-coaster stopped
-here that you dont want neither to think about or undertand how come
having been cheated at doesnt make you feel bad any more, and even more
interestingly doesnt change much of a special relationship. the basis seems to
be untouched. and you feel greatful for all you have been given and for all you
have been given:
-for the good:) - because good is good
- and for the bad - becuase it made you see things as they are
and not imagine them as they never were or will be.

Back in reality you find yourself cuddled by several kids who love you and Fredi-the-fox, and know that with so much good things cant go wrong any more:)
