What country do we want?

There are many ways to experience the country with nostalgia the good old days when we all knew each other, with the anger because it is a country with few amenities, no fun and full of old or, on the contrary, with too many girls and boys rude, noisy and vandals, with indifference because we've come to the event, from any place in Italy or the world in search of better living conditions, with the participation, trying to find what good is within us and around us to appreciate it and feel even a community. That 's what I hear talking to people, listening to people talking to each other or watching groups of kids who seem to live in a world apart.

And it is just listening and observing that I got the idea that the country can be what we want it to be. And then so be it nostalgia if you need to maintain a link with our history and our values but does not prevent us to look forward to bringing history and values \u200b\u200bin this, so be it anger, especially young people, if you need to build new utopias, new forms of work more respectful of people and of nature and teach the older look the new reality with less fear.

The world has changed and we changed with it, even though many of us, we can not keep up or do not recognize ourselves in the changes. But so it is! Today we use the Internet, listening to the I-Pod and you travel by plane and the world has become smaller. We know everything about everyone, but sometimes do not know our neighbor. Values \u200b\u200bsuch as respect, solidarity, honesty, the honor for the work and the sense of limits are a bit 'lost their way and the economic crisis hitting hard even our community, can put a strain on the search for positive feelings for others are needed.

But we can decide to walk together in the changes, without losing sight and then, react and recover the need and the ability to create socialization and desire to be together, to know and to help us see ourselves, and support us have fun too. In a word DO YOU.

beginning I said that there are many ways to experience the country. For me, the best way is to start from people's needs. We are not starting from scratch, we have enormous resources: people and voluntary organizations rooted in the land, engaged in activities and services that support community and social life.

E 'a treasure to preserve and enrich, trying to link people and ideas with the aim of restoring a sense of the live communication and dialogue between generations. There are no recipes. It 's a bet that interest I think all of us, administrators, institutions and citizens - if we continue our journey without losing sight.
