io sono! (2018\u20132020)<\/h1>\n


\u201cYou\u2019re not twenty anymore; you can\u2019t afford to let yourself go. You\u2019re forty now.\u201d\u2028That\u2019s what she told me.\n
I\u2019m not forty yet \u2014 not even thirty-seven.\n
Thirty-six on paper; somewhere between twelve and eighty-nine in spirit, depending on my mood.\n
Yes, of course, I\u2019m aging \u2014 who isn\u2019t? Maybe faster than others.\n
I don\u2019t know. It seems my eyes aren\u2019t old yet, even if the light in them has grown sadder.\n
Maybe I\u2019ll cut my hair. Maybe I should dye it.\n
I\u2019m past the age when gray hair looks cool \u2014 now it just looks old. It highlights the wrinkles.\n
I\u2019ve never had it this long. One day, I simply stopped cutting it.\n
I\u2019ll do it again \u2014 either when he comes back into my life, or when he leaves my head.\n
Ten years ago, in January 2009, I left Palermo, my city, full of bright hopes.\n
Still convinced I wouldn\u2019t disappoint the child I once was.\n
Who hasn\u2019t imagined what they\u2019d be when they grew up? Imagination saved me from a life as a lawyer.\n
I\u2019d seen myself in many ways \u2014 all different from how things turned out.\n
Or maybe I\u2019m just wearing a dress cut from another fabric.\n
I don\u2019t know what the me from thirty years ago would think of me now.\n
She\u2019d probably scold me, tell me I used to be far-sighted, and now I\u2019ve become repetitive \u2014 stuck.\n
\u201cYou\u2019re crazy. You\u2019re selfish. You\u2019re a bitch. You\u2019re ungrateful. You\u2019re smart. You\u2019re rigid. You\u2019re a spinster. You\u2019re hot. You\u2019re a failure.\u201d That\u2019s what they say.\n
Then there\u2019s my inner world \u2014 which, with age, has turned glittery. A small tribe of objects that\u2019s been with me for years, growing over time. I have a story for each one \u2014 a memory. They\u2019re the passport photos of my imagination, where I tell myself who I am.\n
I don\u2019t know who that is anymore. Everything feels so far away.\n
I know I\u2019ve been afraid of happiness for too long. Ashamed of myself. Feeling inadequate.\n
Ulysses said he was Nobody, out of cleverness; Vitangelo Moscarda, out of confusion.\n
Between Homer and Pirandello, I choose the latter.\n
Anyway, I\u2019ve decided to cut it. \u2018In the end, what counts is how it ends.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
