Dear Madam Minister, how are you? Certainly well within the walls of her beautiful home care by her maid, who between the kitchen lunch, doing laundry, ironing the clothes, go shopping. Ultimately, it is rightly so: it has more time to devote to his work and his family. Lucky you! Not me, I'm not so good. Work, ironing, cooking, getting the groceries, clean the house, and everything multiplied by four, because so many are in the family. So it happens that I'm really tired at night and I sleep like a rock. I can not even read two lines of a book I have on the bedside table for months and I would love to finish. But sooner or later I will succeed. I know, all things considered, my life is pretty boring, at risk of depletion; Thank God that every time I do something different that lifts me up a bit '. Did you know? Every time I teach.
Before I was called more frequently, but now almost two years that most do not call me and I'm disappointed not just because, you know, those pennies, however few, were your own convenience. As she takes a salary, Madam Minister? I assume a lot 'since the responsibilities he has. Although it has just arrived. 15-20000 € per month? To which surely must be added the number of additional privileges and other little thing like that. Lucky you! Well, I will, after eleven years, I took about 580 euro because I was part-time. Only ten hours of English per week. Now I do not get those even more since I do not receive any annual appointment. Let us go forward with the salary of my husband who does the postal clerk.
It's not a big salary, only € 1200-1300 per month and, to tell the truth, it always comes with the water in the throat, when you arrive, but I always try to save on everything. Good thing I do not have to pay the rent of the house otherwise we will not get even half of the month. With so much to buy for the girls, some more medicine to be paid or some other unexpected that never fails, I really do not know how. We tinker with the old apartment of my in-laws, but the girls still have to settle for sleeping in bunk beds for their room we retrieved from a closet and it is small. Well, as best! Until I worked with my stipendietto and some small loan, we can send all college and two daughters, but now the smaller, just three years after graduation, has had to stop because At the moment, the specialist was a bit 'too expensive for us. We will wait for better times. That said, they come?
course here in Campania things go right this lily are about twelve thousand waiting for a call and it seems that this year we will be even more. Further 35,000 cuts in tutt 'Italy seems to have heard. ... And if I moved to the north? That said, I'd have some more chance to receive that call? Maybe not right away because I would be in the queue, but we could try. Who knows! But I still find another job because as I would the costs? Should I still stay somewhere and pay rent, eat, get dressed, pay the bills. And my house? My family? What would become of them? Us? ... No, maybe not a good idea.
Lady Minister, what is it for you a person?
Some people are like pawns on a chessboard. They are only playing a game, then when no longer needed, are put aside. To me people are sacred, because each has an intrinsic value. Their stories are like so many stones that are used to construct history. Even the most invisible and hidden rocks. Perhaps they are needed the most, because they can hold together the whole structure, but must provide a history of the opportunity to live and tell about it. You have been given this opportunity fell their sacredness, their texture and crumbles instead of containing the structure weaken, undermine it. It would be a real danger, do not you think?
Madam Minister, what is the state for her?
For some it is just a word with a capital. For others it is a powerful set of laws that dictate to others. For others it is the ideal cover for your business. For me, the state is a dispenser of rights. As a father, should ensure that all its children to have that part of the legacy he deserves. However, it is true, there is always some greedy son of the other that tries to grab the largest part and does not care of his brothers. In this case, the State, as a father, should intervene to bring some 'balance between the parties, defending the weaker children. Is not that what we do moms? We do not put anything by so as not to miss the need for the children, because they are more important to set aside a nest egg. But you do not have these problems. Signing a check and the problem is solved. I do not sign checks because I do not have a bank account. Do not even have an account. What you put into it? Well, what else to say? Now I have my best years. How many more years do I live? Ten? Twenty? And they are many years I've lived in the balance between the yes and no. Maybe I will not have time even to hope. At least for my daughters.
Here, I'd at least that the state is transformed into a dispenser of hope, not to lose faith to their children, or that his father would be! Sad that those children no longer have confidence in your father even more sad when they realize that the father became stepfather! Now leave it to his work. These petty problems certainly are not part of his life, but at least I can say that is a person who knows how to listen.
knows how to listen, right ?.... The greeting.
