3, 2, 1...

I'm alone again, Tom has gone back to the US for some important meeting. We parted on good terms and he's coming back in a week or so, but I really needed this time for myself. Bruno is still here but we don't bother each other, we have lunch and dinner together and then go off to our separate lives.

I came here to get away from my past, but it sort of followed me all the way across the ocean. I'm not going to give up though, I can't, I need to keep trying. Being alone helps, I will use this time to not care about anyone or anything other than myself. Not even my so called best friend and her new lover.

  4. You write that, "Being alone helps." You say that you "use th[e] time [alone in Italy] to not care about anyone or anything other than [your]self."

    Your words remind me of a quotation from Nietzsche:

    "The noble soul has reverence for itself."

    It's good you feel that way, Ms. Essere.

    Sight seeing?
    Making new random friends?
    Watching the sky at night?
    are a few things that could make your lips smile :)
