Life less serious


I was having lunch on Friday with my family, mom, dad and my older sister. While he was eating pasta, my dad said "There will be a gay pride in the evening. What kind of people could go there?". I swallowed my pasta quite normally and stated: "I do". "Marjane invited me and I think I'll go". "Why?", "because I'm a polite person who respect others". I don't wanna say now that my dad is a racist or that I'm gay, but the "kind of racism" atmosphere drive me nervous, and that's all. I arrived to see only the ending speech of the pride, but the idea is what's worth. Many people don't understand
homosexuality is perfectly natural and normal, though we are already in 2009! Someone says God didn't create us for this, and that gay people goes against nature. "Ignorants", I'm tempted to think; what the hell do they know about God's purposes, we can't be even sure he (or she) exists. They say they believe in Jesus, but isn't he died for love? And isn't gay love love? In ancient Greece, my history professor told us, it was an every-day thing to see, like someone's going to take a coffee. Furthermore many animals practise homosexuality. So? What's wrong people? Just take life as it comes, make your choose and respect others' chooses. They're funny and wise too!


Just to be a little frivolous I'll tell you of a really great party I went yesterday evening. We smoked chocolate cigars and changed our voices with the helium of the balloons =) BUT, even in the perfect parties something goes wrong. The peaceful smoking pleasure went broken by a reaaally easy-going guy who still believes Italian politics worths something! And, thinking about people that today seat in our Parliament, I think that guy is going to seat there too someday, but it's not a compliment, soooo sorry! =) Another political question: do you think abstention from voting to the elections would be a way to express your idea or just uncaring attitude? Cause I argued also about this..My dear friend Pabla thinks that not voting stays for not caring. I thought this way until a wedding, where, in order to defeat the boring cerimony power, a kind lady told me she didn't believe in democracy. "It's not sure that the majority is always right". Mmmm, thinking of this idea and the politicians we have (here in Italy), I really find interesting the non vote option.
