1 day in Florence
Which way is The Uffizi?
En route, the question carried with him
“English can’t be the 4th language you learned’? You’re white and have a Boston accent”
But try to understand
His son speaks 3 languages
He has lived in 4 countries
He has 5 grandchildren
He has been mistaken before.
He is diversity
He is confusing –
Now that softens the blows
Different is beautiful; a ‘spice’ of life we all agree… but sometimes terrifying
Our world spits vigor
The splendor we see in our passions
We don’t design or control
Intrigued and relaxed, safe in our homes, we are free to follow our desires, free to
Devour 1 life
