Walking Towards Spring

 Today my feet took me to a beautiful natural place, surrounded by flowers and green lawn.

The temperature was really nice, reminding me Winter is over, Easter is a week away and Spring is spreading all over the landscape.



The fresh and clean air increased my mood, which during this lockdown wasn't that great.

Among the birds chirrping and the buzzing bees, on my path I found something really singular: a circular structure digged in a rock for the rain collection.

In fact in the past the people to water their fields didn't have a pipe system, so they had to use what Mother Nature was offering them: rain!!!



The interesting geological part is that the place is situated on top of a whole piece of clay rock, which is impermeable and so perfect to collect and contain water.

I have been told going down the road there is a natural drinking water spring, next time I will let my feet taking me there.

International World Water Day

During these past days we heard talking a lot about the International #worldwaterday, but why water is so important?
Even if humans are terrestrial living being, before we are born we live in a liquid environment, our body is formed by 70% of water, in fact we are  always recommended to drink at least 2 litres of water per day, to allow our organs working properly. 🍹
Lately we have sent a rover to #Mars and guess what we are looking for? WATER!!! It's the only way to demonstrate the planet was #habitable, as that's how life began on Earth!! 🌍

The biggest civilizations started around important rivers, the first commercial exchanges were done via sea. ⛵
Also who doesn't like to spend a day in a spaπŸ›€ or a swimming pool 🏊 to feel relaxed and reborn, and what about the calming effects of the marine landscapes on the human brain. 🌊
The relationship humans-water is very ancient, but nowadays we use it as it's a spendable good and not a precious one!!

We always consider the water pollution someone else's problem, instead we need to act!!!
By acting I mean taking these little precautions!!


1) Turn the tap off while brushing your teeth, even better if you use a glass to rinse your mouth.
2) Prefer showers instead of bath, if taking a bath don't refill it too much.
3) Wash your car in a self-service or if you wash it yourself turn the tap on only when you need to rinse it up.
4) Water your plants only in the morning and evening so the water doesn't evaporate before reaching the roots.
5) Use the dishwasher and the washing machine only fully loaded.

My First Travel to London

It seems yesterday when I first left to go to London, instead it has already been 6 years. It feels like those years have been reset: again I am looking for a job (with low results πŸ™€), my phone number πŸ“±has been deactivated, which means as soon as I get back I need to buy a new one.😡

I have to kind of start over again.

I still remember the feeling when I jumped on that 🚁airplaine: full of hope and fear. πŸ˜‹ πŸ˜‚

I had never felt those emotions, but in that moment I truly understood what was going on inside Rapunzel's head when left the tower. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I am not only talking about the sense of freedom (especially because it wasn't my first time far from home) but it was a mix of excitement πŸ˜ŽπŸ’ƒfor being in an adventure bigger than me and at the same time realizing that I was in an adventure bigger than me!!!😨😨

Passengers

An interstellar adventure that will make you breathless.

(Be aware possible spoilers)

Classic spaceship with ibernated passengers and crew onboard, travelling towards a new world, a new planet, a new galaxy, a new life, a new beginning. 
At some point something goes wrong (obviously otherwise there wouldn't be a movieπŸ˜†).  Everything looks like too foregone, except for a little thing, which makes this movie different from the other science fiction films: A decision!!! A life change decision!!!

Too selfish? Too lonely? The end justifies the means?
Did he do right? Did he do wrong?
What do you think about it?
Would you have made the same decision?

I think it's really hard to judge from an external point of view, I mean: to really know how it feels, we should be in the same situation, so we can just do some speculations about it.

An other focal point is the Capitan's last words: "Take care of each other!!". For sure he meant life is too short and you are lucky to have each other, so stop worrying about what could have been and focus on the present!!!
It's the same quote the android Arthur gives to Jim at the beginning and Aurore repeats at the very end as conclusion of the movie!!!
Unfortunately, most of the times we don't understand how much something is important for us until we lose it and want it back!!!
It's only then that we start to appreciate our gift, our PRESENT!!!

I have to say this film made me thinking about the importance of life, love, valuate the present moment and accept your plans changing; it's worth watching it, not only for the special effects but for the meaning itself.
