Open Letter to Tiziano Ferro
then open letter a. .. But it's like throwing a message in a bottle in the ocean ... But I feel the need to do.
I checked online, and there is no way for him to get letters of any kind, even through the fan club.
Ok, I go.
Dear Titian,
Today I bought your book and, as they say, I've "smoked".
He touched me sore, very painful.
It can be said that much of what you wrote could have come straight from my pen.
Different lives, different hardships, but identical reactions.
The age is more or less the same.
The feeling of living a life not yours, the constant sense of inadequacy, the constant search for acceptance by the other, the complex relationship with food, bulimia, and the extra pounds. And then
therapy, the strange sensation of being able to externalize their emotions better than with a stranger who you know, see and usually frequent.
But often feel really do not know, or that they did not know you ... Always your fault, of course .
And then ... The eternal search for love and peace. And why
no? Even the idea of suicide.
do not think you should be ashamed: I think at least once in your life this thought has on everyone's mind.
Being on a terrace and wonder how it would climb over the ledge and fly ... But then realize that you're the first floor and the worst that could happen would be bruised all over and not be condemned to a life of immobility.
We are children of the same era, and when you talk about monsters, I know how you feel. Perhaps
sin of pride in saying this, but the feeling is this, and it is the right one .
Both have the same desire to turn the page, start again, and both with the same ghosts that continue to stir imagination in the closet for his life, despite everything.
Despite the desire to change, promises that " from now on everything will be different , more often than empty promises to their ego, the ghosts are there, shaking restless in chains' wardrobe and want to go out, not at all happy with your decision to "make a difference."
And what are you, mentally, all the most holy times, kicked them away, hoping that "this is the right time .
And each time, just three steps forward and two steps back.
But, anyway, 're always one step ahead . How good
says Luciano, "hold punch."
And all this wandering thoughts of strange, frightening, alienating and adrenaline (or annihilation, depending on the mood of the moment), you are there that you print a smile on his face, always hoping that next time will be a little more sincere than that sports at this time.
And believe me, believe with all your might, because despite everything, there is the desire to change, and is a step forward compared to when first you were not even that poor consolation.
Keep on dreaming ...
Thanks, Titian, after reading your book, maybe someone feel less alone.
