Oggi il sole splende per te

 

Oggi  il sole splende per te.

La mia anima s'appaga al pensiero tuo dolce.
Cammino per il mondo al ritmo dei battiti lenti del cuore.
Celata dall'ansia del ritorno, l'idea felice accelera il mio passo.

Porto con me i tuoi odori,
il tuo sguardo tenero,
l'immagine della tua mano che cerca la mia.

Sorriderò per te con gli amici.
Per loro sarò semplicemente simpatico.
Non sapranno mai del mio tesoro.

Non mi stancherò del lavoro.
Sopporterò i poveri di spirito.
Contagierò d'allegria chi mi sarà vicino.

Voglio consumare al meglio ogni secondo che mi separa da te,
poichè insieme a te il tempo non scorre. 

 

La comodità della Normalità come assenza di rischi

Siamo così imbevuti del proprio egocentrismo che inconsapevolmente consideriamo noi stessi al centro dell’universo, spodestando il sole dal suo piedistallo.

Esistono nella vita di tutti i giorni numerosi episodi che rivelano questa antica predisposizione mentale degli esseri umani.

Pensate che personalmente ogni giorno conto molte occasioni in cui questa mia convinzione si avvalora. 

Credo che anche voi spesso siete stati protagonisti o vittime di questa anomalia umana.

La cosa strana che rilevo è data dal fatto che quando un peccato non si commette spesso, la sua scarsa frequenza diventa motivo per eleggere il peccatore a santo.

 Per esempio, una persona non troppo occupata sui propri bisogni la definiamo sbrigativamente “generosa”. Oppure una persona che ti saluta educatamente diventa immediatamente “brava” persona.

Secondo questa regola dovremmo essere riconoscenti a chi NON ruba o NON ammazza; a chi NON è mai stato in prigione; a chi NON inganna, a chi NON ......

Tutto questo, però, significa che si perdono i riferimenti cosiddetti “NORMALI”.

Dovrebbe essere NORMALE rispettarsi reciprocamente, aiutarsi, comprendersi.

Invece, si tende a giudicare come meriti non fumare, non inquinare, non violentare, non urlare, non drogarsi.

Capirete che si accetta un principio assurdo per il quale non esercitare un qualunque abuso sulla convivenza sana e pacifica degli individui costituisce un vanto in una società di egoisti e falsi.

Mi piacerebbe essere lodato per qualcosa che va oltre la normalità; per qualcosa per la quale ho consumato il mio tempo vita dedicandolo al bene di qualcuno o in dedizione a una causa nobile.

La normalità è un strada asfattata: è comoda per camminare, ma non vi crescono fiori

Questa è una delle metafore più celebri e incisive per spiegare il compromesso tra sicurezza e autenticità (spesso attribuita a Vincent van Gogh).

La sua forza sta nel contrapporre due immagini visive ed esistenziali immediate: la strada asfaltata e la fioritura.

🛣️ Analisi e Significato della Massima

1. La "strada asfaltata": L'illusione della comodità

L'asfalto rappresenta la normalità, la routine, il conformismo e il percorso già tracciato dalla società o dalle aspettative altrui.

• È comoda perché non richiede sforzo creativo o scelte rischiose: basta seguire le strisce bianche, andare dritti e uniformarsi al flusso.

• Ti garantisce stabilità, riduce l'ansia dell'ignoto e ti protegge dalle buche e dalle pietre appuntite dell'incertezza.

2. L'assenza di "fiori": Il prezzo dell'omologazione

Il prezzo da pagare per questa comodità, tuttavia, è sterile e altissimo: la mancanza di meraviglia, colore e vita.

• L'asfalto è una colata di grigio che soffoca il terreno sottostante, impedendo a qualsiasi seme di germogliare.

• Fuori dalla metafora, la ricerca ossessiva della "normalità" e dell'approvazione altrui spegne la creatività, l'unicità, la passione e la bellezza imprevedibile che nascono solo quando ci si concede il lusso di essere diversi o di esplorare sentieri non battuti.

🌿 Il Messaggio Esistenziale

La massima non ci invita necessariamente a una vita sregolata o spericolata, ma ci pone di fronte a un bivio di consapevolezza:

• Chi sceglie solo la strada asfaltata sceglie il conforto, ma deve accettare la monotonia e il rischio di un'esistenza piatta, priva di grandi emozioni e sorprese.

• Chi vuole vedere i fiori deve essere disposto a lasciare l'asfalto e camminare sull'erba o sul sterrato. Significa accettare qualche storta, il fango sotto le scarpe e l'incertezza del cammino, guadagnando in cambio la libertà di scoprirsi unici e la gioia di cogliere la bellezza spontanea della vita.

In sintesi:

La normalità offre la garanzia di non cadere, ma ci priva della possibilità di fiorire. La vera bellezza della vita richiede quasi sempre il coraggio di fare un passo fuori dalla carreggiata.

Il momento giusto (poesia)

Una goccia cade dalla bocca di un rubinetto rovinato dal tempo.

Sembra litigare con se stessa.

Non vorrebbe cadere, ma la necessità lo impone.

Trema prima di cadere.

Quando ogni esitazione si perde, spicca la caduta.

Un suono si ode.

Ha toccato qualcosa che riecheggia la passata esistenza.

La goccia si perde, non si vede più, anche se è caduta da poco.

Nostalgia e impotenza per l’acqua che scorre e va via inutilmente.

Altre gocce cadranno.

Il rubinetto non potrà trattenerle.

Aspettiamo sempre che succeda qualcosa o che arrivi il momento giusto.

Il tempo è certo che passi, mentre non è certo quale sia il momento giusto.

Ogni momento non giusto è una goccia che cade e che non sarà più utile.

Highly sensitive person

Have you ever walked in a room and had a wave of negative energy wash over you?

Have you had a conversation with a stranger and could tell, without them saying a word about it, that they were deeply troubled or sad?

Do you ever feel so profoundly moved by something beautiful that you start to cry?

If any of these ring true for you, you might be an empath — a highly sensitive person who has a more heightened awareness to subtle stimuli.

If you are an empath, you’ve likely known for some time you are different from most people around you. 

You’ve probably been accused of being too sensitive or overly emotional your whole life. 

As a child, you may have had a hard time adjusting to new  situations. 

You may have cried easily, had unusually deep thoughts, or asked out-of-the-ordinary questions.

You may even believe there’s something wrong with you or that you have some kind of emotional disorder.

Fortunately, that isn’t the case. Being an empath isn’t something shameful or even very unusual. 

According to research conducted by Elaine Aron, PhD, a psychologist at Stony Brook University in New York, 20% of the population are genetically predisposed to be more aware and empathic. 

She and her research team have found physical evidence in the brain that empaths respond especially strongly to certain situations that trigger emotions.

Says Dr. Aron, “We found that areas of the brain involved with awareness and emotion, particularly those areas connected with empathetic feelings, in the highly sensitive people showed substantially greater blood flow to relevant brain areas than was seen in individuals with low sensitivity during the 12-second period when they viewed the photos [of happy and sad faces].”

Being an empath is not a disorder — it is an innate quality you should never feel shameful about. 

Although some of the traits of empaths make it more difficult to operate in a world dominated by less sensitive people, there are many positive aspects of being an empath.
