Many friends and close people say that school is one of the best moments in life. They refer to trivial details such as the end of the year excursion, the boy who calls you or the inopportune friends who say things without thinking. In truth, this time is a challenge and a struggle to define who you are or what you like. Many questions come and go. All those changes and questions are a reflection of uncertainty about the future and maturity. Sometimes difficult to get around and at other times all those voices reach certain critical points. During this stage of life we do not understand in the best way that we are different and that in the difference we can do great things. Those close friends and people around them know fundamental values such as respect, kindness, solidarity, but they have forgotten.

When school ends we will all take different paths. That’s how it is and it’s good. For now and forever I wish that all the dreams that we have dormant in school days wake up when we leave here and go to meet the world, to save lives or the planet, to cook the best dishes, to write Two Hundred Years of Solitude, to build more museums and libraries, to visit Paris without fear and go to those remote places and find treasures or a cure for something or someone. For the people who have been there cheering, guiding the challenge, I would leave all the good memories, my laughter, the feeling of a bucket full of warm water in the morning to wash your face, the taste of a giant scoop of pistachio ice cream and his favourite song. Thanks to those people who make us possible every day. Thank you. Total would say Cerati. For those who have been, will be and are accompanying me”.
