Adriana Sabato - Life, Chronicle.

Alessia then realized that the parents' concern and anxiety, that anxiety deriving from everyday life if it is exaggerated, it becomes an end in itself, something useless, unnecessary, sometimes harmful. Some time before she had expressed concern about the poor results she had noticed in this new adventure undertaken by Federica with her musical instrument: the piano was there, abandoned to itself for years, but through her it had begun to live, and with it, the heart of each of them followed new rhythms, which were no longer familiar.

The piano was a great love for Alessia as a teenager, but as much as she tried, she was never able to guess the right teacher. Only once, and with great satisfaction and many sacrifices, she had met along her path the right one and her desires were satisfied, but for a very short period. That beautiful sound bothered somebody and so, with an invented excuse, Alessia was forced to send away the instrument. She had to give up with great resignation.

But shortly thereafter Alessia lost her father, and since then nothing was more important… For a long, long time…

What a strange custom to applaud in church during the celebration of baptisms or at the end of the funeral or even worse over the weddings!!! They believed they were the only ones to think that way… But sometimes someone agreed with their way of thinking… Lorenzo always said: “This is not a show”; and Alessia added: “We are not at the theater or to watch a circus show!” Nevertheless, many people liked this custom, but someone as them hated that strange tradition.

While attending Sunday Mass with her family, Alessia thought people should not talk in the church and if needed, at least, they should go out. “And sometimes you two do it, too” Alessia avowed… “But sometimes me too…” she thought “Then?”…

If the Pope has stepped down, he may have his own reasons. The Catholic Church is not living a flourishing time, and a Pope who has already a certain age, beyond the many brainstorms in the news, he may not withstand heavy situations requiring fresh and vigorous energies… In a few days, we will know who will be elected to lead the Church. We all await the conclave, but everyone also expects that things will change in this Europe, in this Italy that seems to implode at any moment. Alessia had never followed the political life, but alas, she thought more and more frequently this is a mania that, sooner or later, takes you, not least because you live it and by living it you necessarily become part of it… And that's why she was not very versed in certain situations. It is certain that she was looking forward, and not just her, of speaking about that bad time as a past, overcome and forever buried event.
