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!

  1. One more thing. It’s my opinion that there are many travel insurance websites of respected companies that allow you enter your vacation details and find you the quotations. You can also purchase the international holiday insurance policy on internet by using your own credit card. All you should do should be to enter the travel information and you can be aware of the plans side-by-side. Merely find the package that suits your budget and needs and then use your credit card to buy the item. Travel insurance online is a good way to do investigation for a reliable company to get international travel cover. Thanks for revealing your ideas.

A large number of people have not had a chance to attend an established college or university however seek the raised earning possibilities and career advancement that a Bachelor Degree affords.

  4. Another thing I have really noticed is the fact for many people, low credit score is the result of circumstances outside of their control. By way of example they may be actually saddled having an illness so that they have higher bills for collections. It would be due to a occupation loss or the inability to go to work. Sometimes divorce process can send the financial circumstances in an opposite direction. Thanks sharing your opinions on this weblog.
