Living like a rat
A man's life can often be like the one of a thinking rat. Different from his kindred, isolated and lonely, dreaming without the physical and moral strength to ever try and make things happen. Try to share one's thoughts maybe? Spread the voice? Resignation is not exciting and can only elicit boring dreams. If you just want to dream, at least be grand in it. Or, keep a foot in the physical world and there's a chance that your dreams will drag you to something new, so when you awake and look around you might be inspired and ready for some action. Romantically melancholy, but pleasant in style and original in plot. by Agnese Mariotti
