But instead of healing, he went insane.<br \/>\nShortly after, he bid farewell to the people who had faithfully followed him to the ocean.

He sees a horse in front of him and a coachman who strikes it with a whip. Nietzsche approaches the horse and, in front of the coachman, embraces its neck and bursts into tears.<br \/>\nThis happened in 1889 and at that time Nietzsche himself was already far from men. In other words, it was precisely then that his mental illness had erupted. But it is for this very reason that his gesture seems to me to have a profound significance. Nietzsche had gone to ask forgiveness from the horse for Descartes.

Keep your curiosity for life alive, your interest in simple things, and never settle for mediocrity. Try alternative paths, learn to look at things from different perspectives, and always have the courage to take paths that are all your own. Always be true to yourself, but be willing to change your goals when necessary. Accept the consequences of your choices and insist on fighting to have your right to dream respected. It won't be easy, you'll have to be determined, and soon you'll realize that living freely requires a great deal of responsibility.

The man thought he was facing a miracle: excited, he told his friends about it.

Since no one could find an adequate answer, they decided to consult a Master who lived nearby. They went to him and told him what had happened. The Master asked for a night to pray, reflect and invoke divine inspiration. The next day, all the villagers returned to the holy man, eager to have an answer.<br \/>\n\u201cThe explanation is very simple,\u201d said the master. \u201cIn truth, the bread fell exactly as it was supposed to fall: it was the butter that had been spread on the wrong side.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>~Paulo Coelho~<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-708 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot_20250630_185134_Instagram-234x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"234\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot_20250630_185134_Instagram-234x300.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot_20250630_185134_Instagram-799x1024.jpg 799w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot_20250630_185134_Instagram-768x984.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot_20250630_185134_Instagram-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot_20250630_185134_Instagram.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 234px) 100vw, 234px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Osaka &#8211; 26 Novembre 2024<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHumankind, at this moment of our destiny, is a child blowing on a dandelion, without caring, without understanding.<br \/>\nYet the wonder of a child is the wonder in all of us, and there is no limit to what we can do when human hearts connect.

At first the other monk says nothing, but in the evening, when they are in the temple where they spend the night, he can\u2019t resist: \u201cWe monks must stay away from women, especially if they are young and beautiful,\u201d he says reproachfully. \u201cTouching them is extremely dangerous. Why did you do it?\u201d \u201cI left that girl over there on the other side of the puddle,\u201d replies the accused. \u201cYou, on the other hand, seem to have brought her all the way here with you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>~Tiziano Terzani~<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-734 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-577x1024.jpg 577w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-768x1364.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-865x1536.jpg 865w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-1153x2048.jpg 1153w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-7x12.jpg 7w, https:\/\/www.lucamilioto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/20251027_1641532-1-scaled.jpg 1441w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Xi'an \u2013 October 27, 2025<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cThe real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands but in seeing with new eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">~Tiziano Terzani~<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FOTO DIARIO &nbsp; Non sono un fotografo, n\u00e9 possiedo le velleit\u00e0 artistiche di definirmi tale, non avendo mai studiato seriamente per diventarlo.
