I refer to previous post (see here ). I do not have a son, but today I thought of him and this is the letter that will give (even if written in the masculine also applies if Dear little girl ...):
my
this letter was written in May 2007.
're old enough now, and so you hand it over today, because I think the time is ripe and you're ready to read it.
The things written then, I also apply today because this has always been my way of thinking.
I wanted to say a few things, but essential, because they are considerations that go beyond time.
not want to be your Master of life. I do not want you to be as I wish. I do not want my expectations on you can slightest touch.
The chance that I would like to offer you only one: LIVE ...
YOU are a seed born of the love between me and your mother, but know you're a seed, and therefore hide a potential that YOU just have to discover.
doubts of those who think they know what is right for you. Not preserved certainties, but one of you.
No one in your place, you will never understand the miracle that it represents.
If there is just something I want to "teach" if you can use that term, is the art of "unlearning".
Listen to what they have to tell your friends, teachers, priests, and even your parents, but forget everything you say, that you go in search of your truth. He studied all religions and then forget them. Read as much as possible, without a culture, but then put aside all that you have learned. Play all the bells costruiscitene but your own. Look how many more places there are on earth to observe the differences.
life, my dear little, you will discover the living, and no book, no parent and no priest will ever send you the.
Live like you want more. Open up to life without fear it. Open yourself to the sensations, not thoughts. Open up your heart and not the mind. Open yourself to the dangers. Open yourself to everything you feel right. Do not hold anything.
I, your father, I will do everything to make you grow up with the only love I know, freedom.
And when you feel is appropriate to have it next to your parents, your shoulder, your counselors, your supporters, but it will be one of your choice and not ours.
We will stay on the sidelines enjoying the spectacle of your growth and to think that the miracle of life could still happen.
a kiss, your dad ...
