Elena I agree with your friend, death is part of our life!! If you think we were born to be condemned to die!, I know it is an unhappy thing, but is so true, although it's for this reason life is so beautiful and we have to live her in every single way!!

Your article certainly contains a lot of philosophical Ideas, and I like that. I have a one question though. Sometimes if you are angry or sad or disappointed in your self it might be for a good reason, for example if you hurt somebody in a way that wasn’t necessary. How should one go about deciding if a bad feeling towards oneself is reasonable or not?

Dear Gaia, I couldn``t agree more to Theresa and Elena. Even though your poem is short, the message in it is so strong and important. Especially the first sentence remained in my mind and is, in my opinion, very relevant for our generation now. These days we are influenced by other people`s opinions. We do things, just to be liked and accepted by society even though it doesn`t make us happy. We want to fit in and be popular and by trying to become this "ideal perfect Person" we neglect ourselves and our needs. So that in the end of the day we are unhappy and feel a dreadful emptiness. Instead of listening to other people, we should keep on doing things that we love and which make us happy. Because that is the only wa to live a life we will remember! I am sure that by publishing your poem on other social networks, many people would think about this topic and maybe it could help them to start doing things they love!

Dear Gaia, I was incredibly touched by your poem. Its message is fantastic, but one particular sentence stuck with me: life is the essence of our existence. It’s terribly easy to get caught up in our everyday lives and forget that we are living, breathing human beings. We are ALIVE. And we only have this one life. I’ve had a conversation with a friend about this subject, and she told me that it is incredibly important for her to bring death into the picture. At first, I was confused, because lots of people are afraid of dying and death isn’t usually seen as a good thing. But she told me: “Elena, you need to realise one thing. Death is part of every moment of our lives. From the first breath, you take you’re dying. Your life is incredibly precious, and you need to be thankful for every moment you have on this earth.” That conversation changed me. It is important to realise that you only have a limited number of breaths. But with every breath, you take, live life to the fullest. Celebrate your mistakes and have no regrets. Do what makes you happy and live unapologetically. To me, that’s how to live a life you will remember. Do you agree? -Elena

No, you don't have to be afraid. This is YOUR Poem, YOUR life and YOUR opinion. It's not important what others think about you, as long as you are happy !!Do you have more poems to publish ?

Theresa, your words are so inspiring!! Thank you very much!! I was a little bit afraid about publish this article, but your words make me so happy and proud!!

Wow Gaia !!! Your Poem is soo inspiring. You are so right. Life is your decision. We have a saying here in Germany: You are the smith of your own luck. Anyway, I think that life is full of love and compassion. We have to forgive people who make mistakes, but we also have to forgive ourselves for the mistakes we did. I think you opened a lot of eyes, who read your Poem. Carry on !!!

... SO LIVE A LIFE YOU WILL REMEMBER...
by Gaia Pagliuca (2001) Liceo Sesto Properzio, Assisi/Italy on 2018-01-03

"LIVE IS LISTEN THE OTHERS
WITHOUT ANY JUDGMENT.
LIVE IS DRY YOUR TEARS ON YOUR OWN
TO SEE THE PEOPLE YOU ARE STRONG.
LIVE IS A PARENTS`LOVE FOR THEIR CHILDREN.
LIVE IS ASK THOUSANDS QUESTIONS
AND DISCOVER THE ANSWER GRADUALLY.
LIVE IS SOMETIMES WE NEED TO LET THINGS GO.
LIVE IS FORGOT THE ONES WHO FORGOT YOU.
LIVE IS THE ESSENCE OF OUR EXISTENCE."


So I started with a little poem written by me. I don`t know why I`m writing this article, but I`m so inspired. "Live a life you will remember" is my philosophy, because life is one and only, and why we have to waste her?
We spend our life always thinking about if we are enough for people, what they think about us, why I`m not beautiful like that girl and ecc...
Really we have to live in this way?
After a while you have to stop being so angry, you have to stop so sad, stop killing yourself and start being gentle with yourself. You have to just let it all go and be happy, to spread love instead of being afraid of it. You have to love yourself. Don`t waste time being unhappy for unusual thing. Don`t do it, to yourself and don`t let people do it to you.
Who says you are not beautiful like that girl or who says you aren`t enough for somebody. Why we have to live with these worries?
Nobody will be like us, everybody is unique because is different. 
So live, love, laugh, travel, do whatever you want because only you can control your life!
LIFE ISN`T ABOUT FINDING YOURSELF,IT`S ABOUT CREATING YOURSELF.
 
TELL ME YOUR OPINIONS!!!
