Auguri (Ai) Papà

Oggi sul sito di ITALIC un mio pezzo sulla Festa del Papà.

C’è una cosa che non ho scritto nell’articolo, ma che avrei voluto comunque dire. Quindi lo faccio qui.
Ho pensato fin da bambino che fare il papà sarebbe stato molto bello. E fin da subito ho anche avuto la convinzione che sarei stato bravo, parecchio.
Così invece non è. Fare il papà è anche molto stressante e a volte mi ha messo davanti a pensieri incredibili, che non pensavo di poter concepire. E spesso poi mi sono vergognato di me stesso.
Non sono neanche il migliore dei papà, ma questo credo, perché un papà migliore di altri non possa esistere. Insomma non è una gara. Cresciuto nell’era dei video games pensavo lo fosse. E mi sono sbagliato.
Per anni ho aspettato un momento della mia vita (narcotizzandone buona parte nell’attesa) e quando è arrivato non c’avevo capito niente. Per anni! Ditemi voi se questa non è la signora delle tranvate.

Detto tutto ciò, però, non è finito nulla. Anzi. Ci sono dei momenti, che si alternano ad altri di down, dove avverto una forza ed una capacità rispetto a quello che posso fare con i miei figli, che quasi mi sento addosso il potere di lanciare ragnatele dai polsi e saltare da un palazzo all’altro!
Forse la verità, nel diventare papà, è che si ufficializza il nostro essere borderline. Dove la convivenza con quello che ci piace deve accettare per sempre la presenza di ciò che non ci piace.
Così quando siamo a pezzi per la rabbia e la stanchezza, basta ricordarsi che sappiamo amare, senza vergogna. E se ci riesce ancora di farlo, forse siamo salvi. Forse.

E forse, siamo dei bravi papà.
Auguri!

  2. With every little thing that appears to be building throughout this particular subject material, many of your viewpoints are actually relatively radical. However, I appologize, but I do not subscribe to your entire idea, all be it exhilarating none the less. It appears to everyone that your commentary are generally not totally validated and in reality you are generally your self not totally convinced of the assertion. In any event I did take pleasure in looking at it.

  3. Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

  7. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your site when you could be giving us something informative to read?

  8. Hiya, I am really glad I have found this information. Today bloggers publish just about gossips and internet and this is really annoying. A good site with exciting content, that’s what I need. Thanks for keeping this web-site, I will be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can’t find it.

  9. I was just looking for this info for a while. After six hours of continuous Googleing, at last I got it in your website. I wonder what’s the lack of Google strategy that do not rank this kind of informative sites in top of the list. Normally the top websites are full of garbage.

  10. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
