Letting go

You finally forgot all the wickedness of your family when even the memories within your cells have been cleansed. It's a long process. It includes wiping away every memory that keeps popping up shouting at you: "Look what have they done to you!" - "Look what you allowed them!" - "Look how blind you were!" The thing is that you did see the wickedness, but you couldn't believe they were so malevolent. "It's family: they can't wish me bad... " In reality: they can!  Exactly your very own parents, siblings, or children can often incarnate very hostile presences. An this is a tremendous reality to metabolise.

Sending love to them

 

Almost out of all the hustle and bustle of my life I can conciliate my everyday, now, with the things and situations which bring harmony to my heart.

Yesterday was the Day of the Dead, dedicated to remember the beloved ones living now on the other side. Being our family so tremendously scattered, also the dead ones are scattered here and there. Besides I hate cemeteries, especially in Italy. Although they are considered very artistic, and quite a few are even suggested in the guide tours for tourists, I really dislike them. Most of them are in the Neoclassical style of the nineteenth century. Which strongly reminds me of my grandparents house: neoclassic, cold, austere… Just like them.

And yet, in my commemoration, everyone is included. Because I know that life is hard to cope with, and in the mess that we have to face, many people forget the real priorities, that can’t – or better said: shouldn’t be put aside. As otherwise, the family will bear the consequences.

Sharpness, coldness, detachment, incorrectness, and even dishonesty… these are unfortunately the wrongdoings that far too often are manifested in one’s family.

For my commemoration I bought a yellow-gold chrysanthemum plant and a very red cyclamen. If I am not mistaken, chrysanthemum represents eternal life, while cyclamen love. And this is what I am sending them all, out of my heart.
