witnessing some of my friends succumbing to cancer and others to drugs, and seeing so many people suffering. It was a scenario that overwhelmed me, and I began my quest for answers. I read extensively, thinking that the solutions to my questions could be found in books. However, I soon realized, as Kafka wrote in one of his novels, that, 'At one point, I didn't understand why I didn't receive answers to my questions, but today, I don't understand how I deluded myself into thinking I could ask questions. I wasn't really deluding myself; I was merely inquiring.' (« Un tempo non capivo perché non ricevessi risposta alla mia domanda, oggi non capisco come potessi illudermi di poter fare domande. Ma non è che m’illudessi, interrogavo soltanto. »)

In conclusion, I've come to realize that we can continue asking questions, and life itself is the answer. Not life in general, but our own lives with all that they imply.

Everyone in their life has lived challenging situations because that's part of our existence. In my life I lived periods that made me believe that isn't worth fighting or even living. My past was very challenging, especially for the distancing of my father from the family. Since he left me, I suffered a lot because I was not raised by the man i should consider my father. So for this reason I began desperately searching for acceptance and affection out of the family, in strangers that I considered friends, but after many delusions I understood that I didn't have to, because the strenght lies in family ties and in myself. So I understood the importance of staying alone to discover myself, grow and find my true self.

Furthermore these and other vicissitudes didn't bring me down, indeed everyday I try to be better than the previous day, because the difficulties help us to be stronger. The difficulties are also an opportunity for growth resilience and learning something new from life. ("Nothing happens to you, but for you" Joel Osteen)

In conclusion, I have realized that in life there must be challenges, to improve ourself everyday and if you think that you're not strong enough, you can always count on your family!

It's knit into the genuine conversations with people who truly know me, beyond the surface. It's in the relationships that leave a lasting impact, the lessons learned through both joy and struggle. My story is crafted through personal growth, self-reflection, and the connections I build with those who see me for who I am. It's not about the number of friends or followers but the quality of the relationships that define the narrative of my life. Ultimately, my story is a mosaic of experiences and the authentic connections that shape my journey.

Last but not least that i have done many trips and travel all around the world and have souvenirs from all the countries i have been.

you must always be looking for new goals and new improvements.

life without goals is a life not lived.

I want to be able to do something concrete for society, I think the most important thing is to leave a mark on people's lives.

In the future I would also like to do a job that allows me to help the people around me

To improve myself without harming others, I try to focus on developing my personal and social skills, trying to be aware of the needs of others and respecting their perspectives. I look for opportunities for growth that can contribute positively to my life and that of others, avoiding behaviors that can cause harm or discomfort.

Life, to me, is a journey where we're called to discover our true essence and cultivate a sense of belonging to the world around us. Finding joy in small daily victories and sharing love and kindness with others seems to make this journey more meaningful. Ultimately, the pursuit of a balance between personal fulfillment and making a positive contribution to the community appears to form the core of life's meaning.

Throughout this exploration, we encounter challenges that shape our character and teach us invaluable lessons. Life becomes a weave of experiences, emotions, and relationships, each contributing to our personal development.

I always wonder if I would be the person I am today, with my strengths and weaknesses, insecurities and fragility. Would I have a pet? Which could be its name? What would it be like to live near my grandparents and be able to see them every day instead of seeing them a few times a year and hoping to see them again as soon as possible? I know that my parents moved to Italy because they wanted the best for our family, but being away from Albania makes me feel bad.

Anyway I’m happy of my life but this is a question which I will never have an answer to, I can only imagine how it would be.

I’d like to think that I would be even happier than I am, because I could eat my favorite foods everyday, I could hug my relatives everyday, I could go to the see whenever I want because I have a house in Albania near the sea. I imagine I would have a little dog and a little cat because in my Albanian house I have a big garden.

Either way I think it would be amazing to live in Albania.

Life, to me, is a journey where we're called to discover our true essence and cultivate a sense of belonging to the world around us. Finding joy in small daily victories and sharing love and kindness with others seems to make this journey more meaningful. Ultimately, the pursuit of a balance between personal fulfillment and making a positive contribution to the community appears to form the core of life's meaning.

Throughout this exploration, we encounter challenges that shape our character and teach us invaluable lessons. Life becomes a weave of experiences, emotions, and relationships, each contributing to our personal development.

Anyone has problems, those who don't have it definitely live an enviable life, right? But how can people continue to live indifferent to the bad things that happen to them? Some problems are simple to overcome, you just need to have some skills to be able to solve them, but in these days the most frequent question I ask to myself is how can I solve a problem that the only way to solve it is to be patient and wait? Well there is no solution to everything i guess... maybe the right way to react would be to "make your peace" (ITA: mettersi il cuore in pace) ?

What I'm doing these days is waiting for some chance to find enlightenment or for something else to give me the answer, in the meantime the only thing I can do to don't waste any more time is try to solve all the other problems, which are now simpler.

If I was a question I would be “What’s the world?” Well as a kid I’ve always looked at the world as something huge and ambiguous. When I was thinking of it I couldn’t describe it or even imagine it. Growing up I realised that we humans create what we call “the world”. Strange isn’t it? The answer to this question was  so much simpler right? Well that is not partly wrong. At the age of 12 when I started to realize the society that we live in I begun wondering. I wanted to learn even more about the world and humans. I became interested in learning.

I remember asking myself again and again the exact same question “what’s the world” I tried to search about it on the internet, in books, in the knowledge of older people nothing satisfied me though. “ Well maybe there is no answer “ I was thinking. Later on the realization hit me in the head strongly as a brick. The world is the reality: the humans and they’re creations, the bad and good, the war, the peace, the bonds, the memories, the sea, the forests , the fire , the water and mostly is what reminds as of love. For example, my friends and family are the world to me because they remind me that when I’m around them I don’t need anything else to feel happy. What’s more, people also believe that the word  “world” is related with astronomy. It could be. It might be. As I was understanding the environment around me I realized that I wanna make an impact to the “world” Whatever that is. I was always an artist either that was painting or poetry, music or even theatre I would always find myself doing something like that. Later on I discovered the art of writing and reading. Philosophy, classics , poems , biographies everything that could get me closer to the human mind and their perspective of the world. In the future I wanna be known like Shakespeare or Claud Monet or even Mozart was for my impact to the humans around us. Drawing was always my passion. I could do that for hours so maybe that could be my impact. Believe it or not learning about what we call “the world” made me wonder many things. One of them being “If the world is so important to us why do we keep destroying it?” I always had in my mind the wars, the destruction of the environment , the political disputes and why some people have more rights than other even though we are all humans and are in this earth for the same cause? Many different thoughts but so many different answers. Thoughts that will always lead to the same question “What’s the world?”

And I keep asking myself, how is that possible?.  On the other hand, I understand that achieving happiness can vary for each person differently, but I have found some principles that we cannot live without: healthy relationships, finding balance in life, what brings you fulfillment.  It's so difficult, sometimes impossible, although many people find happiness in small moments and meaningful connections, just like I do, I don't see so much importance in material possessions but a lot of importance in what you do for yourself that is truly beautiful... and I believe that you will eventually find your happiness.

Meaning in life can be a personal journey, and finding it can involve reflection on your values ​​and your contribution to the world. What do you think brings authenticity to your life?

The pursuit of deep knowledge and fundamental truth raises the dilemma regarding our ability to genuinely understand reality or whether we are captives of our own perceptions. Although we strive to achieve an objective understanding of the surrounding world, we are limited by our intrinsic subjectivity. Each individual perceives reality through the unique filter of their own experiences, beliefs, and prejudices. Thus, our interpretation of reality can be distorted by these subjective elements. However, through introspection and empathy, we can partially overcome these barriers and get closer to an authentic understanding of reality, even though it inevitably remains influenced by individual perspective.

As an individual, you are a traveler in search of meaning and whose path intersects with others in unexpected and meaningful ways. Every encounter, every connection, is like a page in your book of life, contributing to your personal epic. Consider life as a novel, and you are both the author and the protagonist. Your purpose is the plot, weaving through chapters of growth and self-realization. Picture your life as a canvas painted with the hues of discovery and challenges. Each stroke adds depth, and every color tells a story. Your purpose, then, is the masterpiece emerging from the artistry of your journey. It is not a fixed destination but a dynamic journey, a dance with the ebb and flow of time. Think of yourself as an architect, who builds the foundation on which the structure of your life will stand. You are like the North Star, which guides you when you are lost and when everything seems obscure, illuminating the path of self-discovery.

In essence, your purpose is a mosaic of moments, emotions, and authenticity. It's the force that is urging you to leave an incredible mark on the world. You should not be a sedentary bird, but a traveling one ,fostering empathy, and nurturing collective growth.

Well, everyone of us has a dream or a purpose in life including me so, in the future, mainly I want to be happy. I want to build my own business, I want to travel to explore and admire new places, cultures and monuments and I want to be rich. I don't wanna live for anyone's expectations and I want to focus on me and my family. I want to have fun and make many new memories with my friends.

The answer is, in a few words, that Im very communicative with many and different interests like playing in the theatre, listening to rock music, playing basketball and going out with my friends. Among my experiences that have shaped me is that I live with my two brothers one younger and one older than me. My relationship with them constantly changes as we grow up..I believe that the best are yet to come. The visits to Europe during an etwinng project with my schoolmates is another experience that marked me and i will never forget not only beacuse of the places i had the chance to visit but also because of the friends i made to the countries i visited. Another passion of mine beside the ones i mentioned before is drawing..unfortunatelly due to lack of time i merely find time to paint but i surely would like to start again..same goes for my piano lessons!That's all..thanks!

People, most of them at the beginnings of their adulthood years, start questioning the world around them. Other people's feelings or way of thinking, may or may not seem very mysterious to them. They question it, trying to figure out why do people make such choices, use specific words or have a different mindsets than themselves. Most find the answers they seek for, something that covers up all of their questions and makes them feel like they belong to this world.

Others, for better or worst, get even more confused, they keep ask themselves more questions and instead of answers they just gaining more and more questions. I, myself, am one of those people so therefore I must say more to it. The human mind seems too hard to understand sometimes. Some people often find it hard to fit themselves in, to gain the feeling of belonging somewhere, to find their purpose in life. Some of them do find that purpose, and they fight and fight till they achieve that. Other meet the end without knowing still.

From my point of you, if a person has no purpose, then they have no reason to exist. Without goals and dreams there is no reason to be. Thus i do believe people with no dreaming are different than most. I am not saying they are any less human than all others but they do find themselves feeling different, inhuman in fact. Lack of emotions, or even misunderstanding one's true self can cause more difficulties to the person in question, with it all not only bringing more and more of those but also some mental issues or even making a person mentally unstable.

Most of the greatest examples have been noticed through history and art. Unfortunately the only arts I know of are literature and poetry so all examples I can give are from so. Personally I'm only interested in works from the 19th to the 20th century so all examples are from these years. Great authors like Osamu Dazai (1909-1948), Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881), Ryūnosuke Akutagawa (1892-1927), but also poets, one of them being Chūya Nakahara (1907-1937), wrote many works, some more famous than others, about human feelings and human psychology in general, works that can make people feel too relatable to the author's writing or feel understood for once. One book that many people with this kind of problems relate to a lot is "No Longer Human", in my opinion very relatable indeed.

I do think finding something to make you feel less alone, like you are not the only one different than all others, can help to a great amount. But, returning to the main question, as I've lost my point into this writing, I do believe people who feel the slightest inhuman cannot quite answer that question. If a person thinks their thinking or their emotions differ from others and they do not share the same mindset with them, they do not feel like they live a so called "human life" nor know how to deal with it. They mostly seek the answer on "what is wrong or just different with them" with their only or at least biggest goal to find and understand that.

To add to that, I shall speak about myself more, because after all that is the point in all this writing. I do feel like one of those people I talked of in the previous paragraphs. I find myself unable to to answer the question of what it's like to live such life as I have to understand myself better to find the answer to that. Being a 14 year old kid still I know I have many things to experience before I finally am able to to answer correctly. Answering now would not only be false to my liking and ideals but also strongly wrong. Moreover, I am not completely sure if this exercise will be taken as mistaken or wrong, or even if it will sound crazy to most but it is truly the way I view this matter and the world in general.

(P.S. If you know me irl we don't talk about this pls)

There are always lots of challenges in everyone’s life, that lead them to their true path of life. However, we may not know that every dare or stand against something might turn our life completely upside down, or make it an unexpectedly and intriguing journey, with splendid results, and that’s what makes life beautiful. I always ask myself, why did that happen to me? it was supposed to be different.. , What do I have to do next in order to achieve my purpose? and so on.

All in all, even though I have remorses and  try to avoid any difficult circumstances , I think to myself that everything has its reason and there is no need to give up, nor to hesitate try new things, because it is never knew that the experience you’re going through, can build an amazing life just in front of you.

If I were a question, I would be a curious journey into the unknown. Questions are the catalysts of exploration, propelling minds into realms of discovery and understanding. They wield the power to unravel mysteries and open doors to knowledge.

As a question, I would dance on the edges of consciousness, inviting contemplation and sparking the flame of curiosity. Each word forming me would carry the weight of possibility, encouraging seekers to delve into the depths of their thoughts. I would be a puzzle waiting to be solved, an enigma beckoning the inquisitive minds to decipher the code of understanding.

Being a question means existing in a state of anticipation, lingering on the tip of tongues and resonating in the corridors of contemplation. I would transcend boundaries, breaking through the barriers of ignorance and paving the way for enlightenment. The quest for answers would be my essence, driving the quest for knowledge forward.

In the grand tapestry of conversation, I would be the thread that weaves connections between minds. People would gather to unravel the layers of my inquiry, engaging in a collective exploration of ideas. The dialogue inspired by my existence would foster a sense of community, linking diverse perspectives in the pursuit of wisdom.

Yet, with the power to inspire, I would also bear the responsibility of provoking thought. As a question, I would challenge preconceptions and ignite the flames of introspection. The journey to answer me would be a transformative experience, shaping perspectives and molding the contours of intellect.

In conclusion, if I were a question, I would be more than mere words strung together; I would be a catalyst for intellectual exploration and a beacon guiding minds through the vast landscapes of understanding. Embracing the role of a question means embracing the potential for growth, fostering a perpetual cycle of inquiry that propels humanity forward in its pursuit of knowledge.

I wonder how to keep admiring things even sometimes it seems impossible?

Maintaining a sense of admiration, especially when faced with challenges, requires a mindset that embraces resilience and a willingness to see beauty in unexpected places. Even when circumstances seem daunting, stay curious.Approach each day with a sense of wonder, as if you're encountering the world for the first time. Look for details you may have overlooked, and seek out new experiences that ignite your curiosity.

Admiration is a journey, not a destination. Understand that there will be moments of struggle, but by maintaining a positive outlook and embracing the beauty within and around you, you can keep the flame of admiration burning bright.

Sometimes it feels like it's not even worth finding it, because there are so many times you lose it, that it becomes tiring keeping the same rhythm.

True freedom may find its essence in the delicate equilibrium between autonomy and responsibility. While absolute freedom might lead to chaos, a harmonious existence requires individuals to navigate the boundless realms of freedom with a conscientious awareness of the impact of their choices on themselves and others.

If I were a question I would probably be: “How do I want to be remembered ?”

The asnwer to that question differs for each person. Personally, I would like to be remembered for my manners, my values and my contribution to society. I would like to leave behind me a legacy built by my personality and my actions. Leaving this world I want to have made my loved ones and those who supported in me proud. So, everyday I work hard towards my goals because I want when I leave to be calm and satisfied about my achievements and my actions
