“Hopes, Trust, Expectations, But Only Desolation Remained”: “Destiny: No One Knew Where to Find It”
About this ebook
In this journey, my life has become a beacon of hope and inspiration. Despite everything, I never lose faith and positivity; it is in my nature, and I do not betray who I am. I review work after work, retracing the almost fifty titles I have written and the highlights of their writing. Each book is intertwined with my life lived in those days, a reflection of the difficulties that have never been lacking.
People who know me, or who have discovered my activity, often spontaneously ask me how much money I have earned. It is as if they do not ask themselves whether books are essential goods or just perfumes to be purchased on special occasions.
Sitting at my desk, I think about the things still to be done. How many times have I had the instinct to close everything, to erase this period of my life? But then I think about the social commitment that awaits me, to people with disabilities and the mentally ill. I am no longer alone; every decision I make must also take them into account.
I really hope to find my fortune, that this magic bubble, suspended around me, will transform into a fairy capable of performing a grace for many people. I represent for them that dream they had as children, when they imagined they were born normal.
I ask you all for an earthly understanding, deeper than a divine mystery. Because, in the end, man is always the one who arrives first.
