It is never too late
It is never too late to protect the oppressed
It is never too late to save lives
It is never too late to fight for justice and freedom
It is never too late to condemn the oppressor
It is never too late to be on the right side of history
Let’s gather together in the dance of victory, because we will win

World Refugee Day 20th of June 2024
This blog is all about art, creativity, simple living, motherhood and the virtue of gratitude.
Also, in this blog, there is always a space for the voiceless.
On the 20th of June we celebrate World Refugee Day, a day dedicated to the refugees worldwide. There are about 63 MILLION refugees, 40% of them are under 18.
I can’t even imagine what it means not to be able to live in the country you were born.
I pray for you all to be able to go to your homes, to be safe, protected and to have justice for what wrong has been done to you
I pray for the best
We see you.
With Love

Home is where your heart sings
On our last visit to Italy my home country I heard my soul singing.
The vast nature, the singing birds, and the night sky woke my soul. I forgot about how beautiful she is. I forgot about how she makes me feel.
Nature is my home. I love to think that home is where your family is but in reality, people don’t last forever. They come and go. Would you be homeless if your family is all gone?
Home is where you feel alive and my home is nature
Nature is where I feel connected to the Creator, nature is where my creativity explode.
Home is where my heart sings.

New year resolution
During the Christmas holiday, we went to Italy.
We re-charged ourselves with the love of family and friends and I thank God for this.
We cooked and ate delicious meals. We inhaled the fresh air of our forest.
We hosted dinners and we were invited for dinners.
On one occasion, I asked the diners: “What is your goal for the new year ?” Among all the answers I received, one stuck in my head and made me reflect.
My Sister in Law’s Mother said with a beautiful, carefree smile and open heart: “ I want to travel more”
Her answer struck me.
Most of us would most commonly say things such as “ I want to earn more” “ I want to exercise more” “ I want to lose weight” etc etc. She chose something to satisfy her desire to discover the wonders of our world. Why not? Why not choose something that can fill us? Why not choose something for pleasure rather than something challenging?
No one of the resolutions listed above are bad, indeed they are good but why not add something just for the sake of pleasure and joy?
I choose to do more of the things I love. I choose that this year I will express my creativity in the most profound way because this is what makes me feel happy, content and connected to God.
What is YOUR goal for the year?
I hope this post will help you to choose something that you love doing…something that inevitably will nourish your soul
With Love

The soul of my soul
I feel GRATEFUL because every night:
I kiss
I hug
I snuggle
I sniff the skin of my children
I’m aware of that precious moment together
We lay down in bed to read a story.
I can see you falling asleep, your breathing changes. I look at them with a heart that fills up with love and contentment.
I inevitably think of the Mothers and Fathers who don’t have anyone to hug at night because war took their children away.
Oh people of Gaza!
I see you
I feel you
I pray for you
I write because I don’t want another life to be taken away from us
I write because I’m not silent and I will always stand with the oppressed, I will always stand with the Palestinians
With Love
Giada
