Fivearts.org  is one year old!
 (we forgot to mention it last December 28!)

I would like to celebrate it by republishing this translation of mine of an Italian text written by a friend.

My best wishes to all of you 🍃🌹

To my Imaginary Friend


I wish you an acute sight, to predict storms; and a firm hand to govern the boat of your destiny.

 I wish you a refined palate, to appreciate countless delicacies, and a sharp ear to listen to your forgotten voice.
 
I wish you always the possibility and the courage to choose, together with the strength to bear the consequencies of it.  But above all, I wish you the courage to change your decisions, once you've outgrown them.

 I wish you the courage to  undo and redesign your goals  towards new temporary destinations, so that your journey never ends.

 I wish you a thousand and one oceans,  which you will sail by drawing  routes onto your soul.

 I wish you a crazy wind blowing in your face and messing up the sails of your existence, so that your spirit never  gets tired of immobility.

 I wish you to be vulnerable, so that life can touch you.

 I wish you to be curious and impatient, so that  your  mind will  always have something to contemplate.

 I wish you   boredom and confusion, they will  spur you to find solutions and to discover new talents.
 
I wish you the wind of madness and the sun   lighting up your gaze.

I wish you women's smiles and I wish you an ocean of love to besiege the island of your heart.

I wish you tears when you need to cry, because from those tears,   stars of freedom and galaxies of understanding will be born.

I wish you loneliness and silence so that,from the depths of your past, all your forgotten lives can re-emerge and be healed.

 I wish you get  what you like and, above all, what you need.

 I wish you to live this year all in one breath.
