way out, one morning, I threw a quick glance upward
: those 'immense expanse Reign over me. I saw a blue suffocated by strange and grotesque colori. Così mi fermai e chiesi al Cielo se andasse tutto bene. Ingrigito e stancamente intorpidito dalla nebbia mi rispose con una folata di tosse ventosa…:
- Purtroppo no, mia cara…anche stamani ho dovuto svegliarmi ma avrei proprio bisogno di riposo. I fumi che mi assillano giorno e notte non mi permettono più di respirare…-
-Sai, amico mio- ribattei io colta dall’ ingegno di una stravagante idea - certi giorni dovrebbero sorgere con un pizzico di magia all’interno…Per esempio, se oggi mi dicessero che mi è concesso un sortilegio farei apparire per te un enorme aerosol e ti avvolgerei di aria purificata. Qualche giorno di cura e sono sicura che ti sentiresti molto meglio…!- Udito ciò il Heaven was moved, and even her tears bathed my face. I greeted him and going in my lap I met a sparrow. I stopped because I realized his incessant sobbing ...
-Small, who's wrong? - I asked, worried.
-Oh, my dear, I find myself without a nest and three children to feed. Find trees now, it has become impossible. Many are already taken, or are sick or are even killed. For now I live in a fire not far from here, but not for us ... my children do not breathe shut up there! Let me cry in peace ... what else remains for me to do? -
just stroked the feathers of the sparrow in a comforting gesture, and continued, albeit broken, in my way.
Shortly after I stopped near a river to hear the quiet roar of the water. After a few moments the river ran beside me and threw an old tin route, a rusty pipe and a can of detergent in plastic.
-a little ', my dear, your case will not be for this stuff? -
-Of course not, answered immediately with a hint of resentment.
-I know the difference between a river and a dump! -
-Do not ask me to believe you, it is hard for me ... you people always promise, but I do read up more every morning I wake up with the taste of these poisons in the mouth ... I feel bad, look at my color ... I was once transparent and welcomes children playing carefree. But now ... For years now, I do not see anyone. They are just everyday-.-
why sometimes disappear and never be seen as a bit 'of time? - I asked curiously.
-Yeah ... I'm dry and I retire with my thoughts ... but just a few showers from heaven to inspire us and return soon! Slightly cleaner, but not too much ... - I picked
objects carried by the river and threw them in the first bin that I met.
Not far from there I came across a vast expanse of land. - How wonderful, I thought, but as I walked a strong and annoyed "Aihh! "Called my attention.
-Oh, sorry! Did I hurt you? - I asked worried.
-Never mind ... I have pain everywhere! - Answered, muttering like a pot of beans, the dusty field.
-You too! - I retorted, a bit 'sad.
-I was covered with strange substances, say so my fruit will be bigger and brighter! That may be true, but I knew that discomfort and weakness, my dear ... -
A few feet away, going on tiptoe on the poor land aching, I was called by a majestic tree and taste its exquisite first fruits. How to refuse?
I caught while fishing and ran it to his mouth, observing the reddish color and inviting I was immediately blocked from the field.
-Oh no, child! Your body will not be content to ingest herbicides! Go to the river and wash it well before eating it! -
I can not! - Said exhaust-River just told me that in his veins poison for years
-Weary and desolate I lay down on the damp ground and stared at the sky on me.
-my-friends-incalzai know what is going on? I'm worried about you, for your health! -
-Darling said the river-we too are worried about you. Do you believe that our problems will not touch you but what's missing in your life is missing and what destroys us also prevents you and your neighbors to feel good.
"But I feel good: eat, drink, sleep, breath ... all activities that seem to become impossible for you-I said-
You nourish yourself with what the land offers, drink the water that the river transports you and breathe the air that fills the huge heaven, but what you do not see is the contamination that surrounds us, like a terrible virus from which there is no cure for "Doctor" has an interest in cure.
heave a sigh of relief when we find people able to stop listening to ourselves and our problems, but this rarely happens ... Thanks for signing noticed us and to show our gratitude we get a special gift: with all our efforts we'll give you the best that is left of us ... Remember, this gift will last only a few seconds but in that short time you will feel sensations that few others are able to hear. Listen to our songs.
a few moments, I closed my eyes and heaven blew gently through his hair reaching my Spirit: With great pleasure-giving you back that "touch of magic" that you wish you were with so much love for me ... Thanks .-
The Wind, son elusive of Heaven, wrapped me in a deep breath and shook my soul revived.
A burst of clear light and fresh water reached my face, relaxing strokes confused and amazed, I've cleaned up when I was ill with you. Thank you ... - sang il Fiume.
Poi venne il turno del Passerotto che assieme ai suoi piccoli mi cantò una dolcissima melodia…riecheggiò nelle mie orecchie e continuò a librarsi nell’aria come fosse interminabile. –Come tu hai scaldato con la tua carezza il mio corpo stremato donandogli affetto io dono a te un Suono che scaldi il tuo cuore. Grazie…-
Infine apparvero davanti ai miei occhi l’ Albero e il Terreno che seppero inebriare i miei sensi con il profumo intenso dei loro migliori frutti. –Questi alimenti sono figli nostri e nulla di estraneo li ricopre. Il loro aroma sarà la nostra Essenza e il gusto che ti appagherà sarà il nostro ringraziamento che ti accompagnerà sempre.
Come previsto, these moments of delicious purity slowly faded along with my dear friends ...
When I opened my eyes all around, it was still and silent. I hugged to myself as to seek the warmth that time I had drunk a little earlier.
was all over and maybe it was just so ... we are guests of the Earth and we must learn to listen to his precious advice!
My friends have taught me that we will always reap the fruits of our creations, which always bear the consequences of our actions and what they depend on our good. Thanks to them I could see what we could enjoy if we only wanted to best, and why not ...
if approached the day with a pinch magic "over ...!
