Attraversiamo

Attraversiamo - let's cross over, from this moment to next, from this thought to another, from this life to the other.

What does it really mean? Do we really understand the depth of it? Is it a leap of faith you take during a decision your heart and mind are not at sync? Or is it the moment you decide to let go of a regret that you have for the decision you took that changed the course of your life. Or is it not any of this, and instead just means crossing over your own fears, inhibitions, insecurities. What is attraversiamo?

But the real question is, is it worth crossing over? Is it ok to let go and yet hold on to it? How could it be possible for anyone to do both? Are different parts of brains responsible for it? Are those two parts not connected with each other, that they are unaware that the other part of the brain is doing the exact opposite.
Which part of the brain or heart is asking the other to cross over? Is it the part which has let go and is asking the one which is holding on to, to cross over and let go too? Or is it the part which is holding on to, asking the part which has let go, to hold on to.
It's all chaos, but one day or another, one will cross over it, you cannot go on living with this conflict of letting go and holding on to, living inside you. You will one day over come this predicament. But how long will it take?

Yet, is attraversiamo the best possible solution? Well one can only find out, once one has crossed over.

Are you ready for it yet?
Are you going to cross over?

Life at times is as mysterious as the purpose of it. Some decisions alter the course of life in manners you never imagined, and there is very little you can do about it thereafter.

What remains is the debris of the dreams you had, the ruins of the memories- lying scattered. So can you really cross over it?

Do you have the courage that it takes to take the steps, as each step over those ruins shoots across a pain that has the ability to last a lifetime.

Can you endure it all? Can you really cross over?
