365 STRANGERS

One stranger a day, for 365 days

Savona. Lei è Alexandra. Stavo chiacchierando con uno stranger di febbraio incontrato per caso, quando l’ho vista. Camminava decisa, e aveva uno sguardo cupo. Sembrava molto arrabbiata. Mi dice di sì, nonostante non dorma da 3 giorni. Era davvero arrabbiata, e per un attimo, qualcosa l’ha commossa. C’era del dolore, in quella rabbia. Passiamo insieme un po’ di tempo, e nel gioco dell’incontro sento che un po’ di quella rabbia finisce sullo sfondo. Ci salutiamo sorridendo, e dopo un po’ mi scrive “thank you stranger for your therapeutic smile”. Mi basta questo. Thank you!

Savona. She is Alexandra. I was chatting with a stranger met in February, when I saw her. He walked decided with a dark look. He appeared very angry. She said yes, despite she didn’t sleep since three days. She was really angry, and for a moment, something has moved her. There was pain, in that anger. We spend half an hour together, and in the game of the meeting I feel that a bit of that anger was going in the background. We said goodbye with a smile, and after a while she wrote me “thank you stranger for your therapeutic smile”. And that’s enough for me. Thank you!
