✈️ The more I journey across the world, the more I witness an exponential decrease in judgment. This shift grants people a freedom of expression that far surpasses what I encounter in Italy.
🤸🏻🤼‍♀️ I see groups of women who, by our standards, would be deemed elderly, sharing a beer together 🍺, unconcerned with pleasing anyone.
Men and women alike frolic on the beach 🏖, unburdened by age, as if they were children once more.
In the absence of judgment, the boundaries between young and old, male and female, geographical provenance, body shapes, blur and fade away. What emerges from this is a simplicity, a genuineness, and a happiness in people that is undeniable.☀️
There is much we should learn from this—if ever we manage to do so. 🙆🏻‍♀️

Il punto è questo, vediamo se mi spiego: Firenze è una città con strade intricate e strette, il cui tessuto urbano è prevalentemente medievale. L’equilibrio di un luogo del genere è assai delicato e quindi, al di là delle molte polemiche, è necessario proteggerlo fermando l’ingresso indiscriminato e continuo di auto.
Per mancanza di rispetto, conoscenza della città, comprensione dei cartelli stradali e forse anche a causa delle errate indicazioni dei navigatori, molte si muovono per il centro in maniera scriteriata, mettendo spesso a serio a rischio la bellezza di questa città.
Il suv con targa nord europea qui nelle foto, ha ‘fatto’ due contromano in meno di due minuti (via Romana e piazza Pitti) aggiungendo alla prodezza una sonora botta con il paraurti posteriore sull’angolo di uno dei palazzi storici di piazza San Felice.

“Se poniamo un Dio fuori di noi, ci strapperà al nostro Sé, perché il Dio è più forte di noi. Allora il nostro Sé si troverà in grave difficoltà. Se invece il Dio si insedia nel Sé, ci sottrarrà alla sfera di ciò che è fuori di noi [...]. Nessuno ha il mio Dio, ma il mio Dio ha tutti quanti, me compreso.”
