That was a nice piece I thoroughly enjoyed that, cracked a few laughs along the way and related to so much of what's been said. Well done, lookin forward to the next piece, peace ✌️
It took me a couple minutes to stop smiling, after I finished reading. I don't know if there's an equivalent in English to what Egyptian attendees of Um Kolthoum concerts used to say when they're thrilled with her singing "ALLAH ALLAH", but I literally said "Allah ya Ornella" at several points throughout the text. Thank you for your generosity, sharing what's in your head with us. ♥️
Nice recollections. I think that as human beings, we tend to transform every deep, innate desire into an Italian decision. Finding or creating utility around the thing we want most, artfully rationalizing what we’re already drawn to. This is a good thing though, a form a creativity perhaps.
I think in a way, yes, it does require some form of creativity. Although I am at a stage in my life where I find myself thinking “isn’t wanting something enough of a reason to pursue it?” Without the need to make it italian?
I was actually thinking the other day how cool it would be if, in our household, we had every object do one thing and one thing only, like an alarm clock in and by itself instead of using your phone, or an actual radio in the kitchen for music, I don’t know.. :’)
All of that is me, if you can ask me. But I am also aware that the only way one can recount a past event is through reconstructing, so I guess that makes it both? A reconstruction of all of me? :)))

Haha my husband and I recently got an old-fashioned alarm and it was so worth it! 😂
Non-italian objects and decisions 🙂↔️
Thank youu 🫶🏽
I feel like I understood something about myself through your writing that I didn’t have words for before.
I thought the persiane were smart, but never formed a thought about them. You did that for me.
How much of this is you, and how much is reconstruction? I love that I can’t fully tell.
Please keep writing. Keep writing, please.
This makes me want to, indeed, keep writing.
