We return! September, relaunch month!
In this article
Holidays over… But the desire to build a better world never ends! This is why we make an invitation for the whole month of September: BE BACK! Because there is so much to do!
Back to school or back to work!
The first return is the one from which no one can escape: back to school or to work. And it is also a particular return, because perhaps, for the first time in a few years, we are returning without the strict COVID restrictions. The COVID emergency, it is true, we have managed to get familiar with, but in our
schools and in our work there is certainly no shortage of situations in which protection and care is still necessary. Just think of the every day commuting, a difficult contract to negotiate or an exam/verification difficult to prepare; or to some relationships (both at school and at work) that need the care of trust and mutual esteem …
Certainly, in the large and small insecurities of every day, the main help comes from the people most dear to us! But we have also prepared a selection of Angels, excellent companions for daily chores, guardians in moments of doubt, uncertainty, hesitation. Here they are!
Back to essential
The second return seems desirable to us! Be back to essential! We are expanding the offer of food & drinks on our site because, undoubtedly, eating is essential for life… We do not want, however, to limit the discussion of essentiality to the palate only.
Let us do a little exercise: close our eyes, stay silent for 2-3 minutes and think about what seems essential to us in our life… Do you find the answers? Well, and then let us stay for another 2-3 minutes with the phrase by Amélie Nothomb: “By dint of sacrificing the essential for the urgency, one forgets the urgency of
the essential”. Back? Oh yes… The urgent is not always the essential… If after this brief reflection you do not have to remove anything from your previous list, congratulations. And if it is so, patience, the priorities can be quickly ordered, once you understand their essentiality.
Back to peace
The third return is what we all want… Return to peace… Many sufferings of the world, just because they are of the world, seem too big and too far away and therefore not very manageable on the micro level, that of each of us. The same problems that on the macro-level can be the themes of the great debates and the
great speeches of people who know how to deal with great things, when they are experienced on the micro-level they ask to be (not) simply kept quiet.
It is no coincidence that in this period we have highlighted the olive wood products. An olive branch has always been the symbol of peace. Made in Loppiano with the Fortresses di Ciro on olive wood supports the stay of the Ukrainian families hosted in Loppiano. 50% of the proceeds obtained from the sale of Ciro’s Fortresses on olive wood will be used for this support. Discover the fortresses and other olive wood products. In this way you too can contribute to a mediation of great problems – help is never small.
