Stopping the toughts
Did you ever tried to stop your thoughts? Sometimes I tried when I was just lying down on the bed and before sleep. It is a very difficult thing because the mind jumps continuously from one argument to another and the only fact to think how to stop the toughts is a thought. However I suppose that one time I succeeded because a strange thing happened: at a particular moment I felt like getting out of my body! I was afraid and immediately resumed my thoughts. Since that time I have not tried to stop my thoughts.

Flat or curved
If I look all around me I think that our planet is totally flat. This happen specially in this period of the year, the summer, when I go to the beach and I see the sea and it's big and flat surface, ripple only by the waves. For this reason I'm very surprised if I think to those people that, in the past, asked themselves if the Earth was flat or curved. Think the Earth was curved was a big intuition and I admire so much this people, with open mind, that thought this non intuitive hypothesis.

What a beautiful show!
Every day, early in the morning, a little ray of light overlooks from the east horizon. Immediately another one follows it with another ray, and another and so on. After few minutes a little part of the sky takes on slight shades of color and the sky, that was totally dark with some spots of light, changes in a shade of blue color. Slowly, minute after minute, other nearby parts of the sky change gradually its color. Shades of blue color. The same thing happens in the evening, but with shades of another color when, starting from a blue color, the west part of the sky changes slowly its color from blue up to different shades of red to then return to the black of the night. What a beautiful show!

Terrible lion
One reason because i haven't gone yet to visit Africa and his nature and animals is the cost of this type of trip; but there is also another reason: my little fear of lions. I don't know where this fear comes from but to justify this I have always thought that in my previous life i was eaten by a lion, a terrible lion. Is it possible?

That particular light
Yesterday evening, at about eight o clock, when the sun was starting to setting, I went out on my veranda and I saw everything around me illuminated by that particular light which is not a full light but, at the same time, it has already start to decline. At the same time there was not any wind and all was calm. Immediately a thought came to me: this situation represents exactly the actual moment of my life. At my age there is no more the full light of the youth and all around me takes different colours. I promised myself to enjoy myself in the future the full and colored light of the day and I hoped that the sun takes much time to setting.

An old watch
Yesterday I saw , on TV, an important person wearing an old watch. My first tought was: Why this guy wears an old watch and not a modern model? After one moment I called to myself: Is it possible that he wears an old watch for the same reason i wear my old watch? When I wear my old watch and i look at it immediately i think to my dear father because it was his watch. It is better than a photo to remember him.

Little things
Today is a sunny and a windy day. The branches of the my little ficus plant are moved by the wind and their leaves are shining by the sunlight; two little sparrows are jumping from one branch to another. On the blue sky pass only a few clouds and, trough the window, i see one cloud that has a shape of a sleeping person, like only the clouds can do. How many little things we can see this days that we are closed into our home.
Thank you for the corrections

STONES AND ROCKS
Here we say that when God did the World he takes a sieve and distributed the soil everywhere. At the end of his work he reverse the sieve in the middle of the mediterranean sea and this is the reason because our island is completely full of stones and rocks. So here we can see many uses of this materials. Our ancestors used this rocks to build our old castles, the “Nuraghi”: they have circular shape and are made only from rocks putted one over another, without any kind of glue material. Moreover there are excavated rocks, like a little cave, but so little that a man doesn’t stay standing in this space: this rocks with a small cave are named “Houses of the Fairies” because their smallness. We can try another type of worked stones in the “Giant’s Tomb” that we find all over the island. This stones are 3 o 4 meters high and you can see one example of this in the picture of my profile.

I was born in a little village and when i was a child i lived close to the nature. Now, because my work, i live in a city, not a big city but not even a small city, in a flat in a condominium, without garden e totally far form the nature. To create a green corner that remember me my childhood i've bred a little bonsai of olive tree from a little tree that i have take out form my village. I put some moss e some rock, both from my village, over the soil. When i look to this little tree which grows over soil, moss e rock, i remember my village and i feel good.
