In these years I have often questioned the concept of the possible and the impossible, especially regarding the potentialities of each of us.
During an intense conversation with a friend, I initially hesitant and pessimistic I told him that I would never have made it to do university exams and he more determined and convinced me of the stupidity of my thought.
He told me some very simple things but I struggled to believe that they were true.
He told me that if we did not have any particular physical or mental health problems and even then it was not necessarily an obstacle, we had the same chances to accomplish something if we really wanted it, despite some means or fortune or talent were more advantaged.
His straightforward and convinced talk remained with me for years, especially when I faced things I thought were in fact possible.
To which he would have looked at me and said, "See, it was enough to try and get involved, we can all do it"
Growing up I have overcome skepticism almost completely even though sometimes I still suffer from that terrible disease called "I can not do it, I can not."
The thought of being incapable of doing so much has been a problem with which I have fought all my life and with whom I fight even today.
But I start to see things differently, now I realize that many of the things I thought impossible in reality required only more effort and more consistency.
Maybe sometimes there are moments where things do not happen as we would like, but they are moments that pass and then we can go back to try again, perhaps with more conviction.
So when I question myself about the impossible I start to believe that most of the time it's just the fruit of my imagination.
And it is a strong and extremely liberating thought.
To finally think "it's possible" I can do it.
Just want it.
At least for what concerns the personal projects of course, I do not speak of utopias as healing from diseases or forcing a love, in this case it is not enough to want it, unfortunately I would add.
