Signs of life

Well well well. “The road to hell is paved with good intentions”, whoever said that? For sure, if you read my previous (and only, until today!) post, this witty proverb would suit me fine. One year has passed since I opened this little space, and many things have changed. Or rather, in the vein of Sysiphus, many things have returned as they were.

It’s one year that I’m back to Italy and the experience in the CERN-area now belongs to the past. It’s true, from time to time I’m back there and I can say that I did not lose the people that mattered to me. But back to Italy means also back to old habits and old routines, and it’s becoming ever and ever (once again) like the Sysiphus stone, always up and down the mountain. Guess who’s pushing it?

And what can I say about it? Just that I also lost the will to go on with this blog. Good intentions, indeed, this was one of them. But it feels like I’m doomed to eternal damnation.

Who knows why I’m here again. Today had nothing special coming my way. Maybe, even worse, some extra, unjustified anxiety I did not really need. But let’s keep the moment going and revamp this piece of web, brush away the cobwebs in the corners, and say something.

Precisely, this phrase circling in my head, just to close the loop and end with another quote.

“There is not enough time to do all the nothing we want to do” (Bill Watterson – Hobbes)

Pretty clear, isn’t it?
