this wednesday i will become 25. It's my first birthday long long away from home! i have already started thinking that i am getting older and i was for a moment ready to get depressed realising that many things that i wanted i still don't have and then like a stroke i thought:i am still alive, healthy, i work, i have family, friends; in general i have a present and more important i have a future; i have a future that gives me the possibility to try to get things better for me and for the rest of the world. and that is a great reason to be happy and to feel lucky because i don't forget, and i shouldn't forget that there are millions of people that have nothing of what i have not because they don't deserve it but just because they weren't lucky..they are sick, or poor, they don't have anything to eat or their lives are in danger..
and i just now remembered what thomas carlyle said: he who has health, has hope; and he who has hope, has everything..
