Also you each morning from I do not know how long. Every day I was welcomed to stop in Piazza Castello with a radiant smile, honest and free, like newspaper delivery. Me, I always head elsewhere, between yesterday and tomorrow with a hint of today, then I remember her, I say, ah, yes, here it is! And it is good news, because the girl hands me a newspaper with a sincere movement of generosity, as if I porgesse a gift. "Metro, good day!" Indeed they are, is really a gift, but does not refer to those pages of advertising and news in the margin. Not at all. Probably
la pagano quattro soldi e di sicuro non le danno alcun extra per sorridermi di cuore. Ma lei lo fa sempre e, diavolo, non vorrei sembrare new age, ma è un sorriso cristallino, pura gentilezza d’animo. Il regalo è tutto lì e l’ho avuto tutti i giorni, come l’hanno ricevuto moltissimi altri distratti figuranti diretti al lavoro. Perfino i conducenti dei bus sembrano apprezzarla, lo vedo da come la salutano. Così ogni giorno, non importa se la luna è dritta o storta, io mi sono ritrovato a ricambiare quel sorriso luminoso con una sincerità fanciullesca, che nel tempo è andata crescendo sempre più. E ogni giorno ho ripetuto il mio mantra: “Ciao, grazie”.
Che presa alla lettera is small, as a phrase, but let's see '. With "Hello" I mean, "Hey, how nice, you're here again this morning!" As with "Thanks" I say, "That smile that you give me is so clear, so true. It makes me feel good, makes me realize that we are the same, I going to do the advertising and you and that you distribute newspapers. The distinctions, detachment, is a fantasy game. This can be done to break a smile. "
" Hello, thank you "And of course I smile reflexively, putting in all the innuendo that I can. A quick exchange of glances. I am sure that he understood. Now it's like a game of mutual recognition. He winks a bit ' and pull straight. So let us just: no romantic or erotic aspect in all this. Only two people on equal terms.
Small gestures, glimpses of truth that help make the days better, made by little known heroes, who hardly pay attention. I wonder if it was me, instead of the girl to perform a job that does not abound (I think) of satisfaction, I would be able to smile like that? And, even more important question, if all pay attention to these people more often, to recognize the value, instead of chasing hairpieces examples provided by plastic models? I'm such a director to promote the Metro!
You know people like her? Apparent appeared that perhaps the most interesting stories embody those carried out by the protagonists, or aspiring, to this infinite, complex reality without cameras?
