Practising love is urgent
Attention is urgent
look, will you look at me?
It is urgent to be curious
Ask questions and stay to listen to the answers or new questions
Conversation is urgent!
It’s urgent not to run out of time, it never stops
It’s urgent to imagine, to go to the place of forgetfulness, to play
Practising love, have I said it? I’ll say it again.
It’s urgent to care
sharing food, sharing life
It’s urgent to live together
It’s urgent to plant, harvest and stop cutting
It’s urgent to rescue the child that disappeared in us
When? when I was growing up, I don’t know... I didn’t realise it was gone
Everything is disappearing, don’t you see? Come on, there’s still time.
It’s urgent to be, to stop having
Be from here... like the trees
If you were part of a tree, what would you be? the leaf? the root? the trunk?
Can I be a complete tree?
It’s urgent to invent superpowers
rolling on the ground
walk barefoot and feel
It’s urgent to look that unknown person in the eye: Good morning!
Compassion is urgent
It’s urgent to recognise that we have no time to lose
we are at risk of being left with only the beautiful images of what has disappeared
together, you and I
We’re back to the same, Eugénio knew that
Love is urgent, practise it, See
Can you understand?
It’s urgent to Be…
