Hello everyone I'm in the front row with glasses in the picture and output a bit scared.

On the fund raising I like the theme of giving in particular.

According to one of my favorite sociologist Marcel Mauss in his famous "The Gift" 1924 The gift icon corresponds the element of a system of mutual prestaziono same time free and constrictive in the sense that the gift obliges the recipient to reciprocate, giving rise to a continuous coming and going of compensatory gifts and gifts. This causes the exchange, an exchange that is not limited to the relationship between individuals but extends to a wider relationship that affects the entire society. The exchange combines.

But not always so. The gift is a means of differentiation and opposition.

The GIFT is either "cloak" that "crown" The mantle covers, keeps you warm, protege, the crown mark, stand out, show. The coat is useful, the useless crown. The coat is discretto, the crown is flashy.
Cloak and krona contrapongono like 2 gift registries.
The coat is that gift secret, anonymous invisible, that gift UNCONDITIONAL.

We are looking for more coats.

Hello

PS The brevity is not exactly my forte.

The photographer, unfortunately, has not had the foresight to photograph my beautiful face ...
well, my outline is barely visible!

Getting back to serious matters, the best hope that I can do to me is to learn to give a light heart!
Not that I'm selfish, but I have not yet learned to fully appreciate the beauty of giving. (Before doing so I think perhaps a little too!)

There 's always a "what they are worth" in every action you do, otherwise the action would not be. Do not know the meaning of the word "unconditional" because in reality has no meaning. oiange until a child has a game, an adult drug because it is better that way. There 's nothing unconditional, there are only positive motivation and negative motivation (to be fought with education) but I see no possibility of asking someone something for nothing. And 'pure theory is not applicable ... in fact we are no longer even aware of why we do things ... and then hopefully in unconditional surrender, which does not exist!

Oh my god ... I have confirmation that it is not photogenic!

I leave a text Gaber appreciate that, by the way it was written the year I was born, and that speaks of freedom ... but also to participate ... I think there is more favorable condition to share problems and seek solutions .

The gift represents the material element of a feeling that comes from participation in the feelings of those who feel close to us?

Freedom
Giorgio Gaber
(1972)

I want to be free, free as a man.
I want to be free as a man.

As a man who has just been born just before the nature
and walks in the woods with the joy of chasing adventure,
Always free and vital, makes love like an animal,
unconscious as a man pleased with his freedom.

Freedom is not the star on a tree,
not even the flight of a fly,
freedom is not free space,
Freedom is participation.

I want to be free, free as a man.
As a man who needs to explore with their imagination
and that this space is only in its democracy,
who has the right to vote and who spends his life to delegate
and be in control of his new found freedom.

Freedom is not the star on a tree,
not even have an opinion,
freedom is not free space,
Freedom is participation.

Freedom is not the star on a tree,
not even the flight of a fly,
freedom is not free space,
Freedom is participation.

I want to be free, free as a man.
As man evolved over which rises with intelligence
that defies the nature of science with the power unchallenged,
with him the enthusiasm of space without limits in the cosmos
and convinced that the power of thought is the only freedom.

Freedom is not the star on a tree,
not even a gesture or an invention,
freedom is not free space,
Freedom is participation.

Freedom is not the star on a tree,
not even the flight of a fly,
freedom is not free space,
Freedom is participation.

From "Dialogue between a busy and do not know"

I am the guy with glasses sitting in the front row in the midst of my two wonderful colleagues Blerina and Marilena.
At 4.47 am on Saturday, February 24, 2007 Today I was reminded of a phrase on the subject of FR
For me, the Fund Raising is that noble instrument of communication through which is transmitted to others the message of hope. And 'quell'adoperarsi that breeds in the other the thought of "someone loves me."
Francesco Occhipinti

Excuse me, dear Valerio and dear and beloved ladies and gentlemen, if you do not use any quotation (perhaps in Latin, which I know quite well), I will not surprise you with special effects (such as advertising a famous saying of the past), I also do not even have the time, I want to ask with the heart for the disadvantaged, to final action of the RF, which take their first benefit from the fact that someone is interested in them.
A hug

Dear All,

My name is Michelangelo and the second photo down on left.
What is the fund raising for me?
Let me tell Diderot, with a quick addition: "Do not just do good, must get it right" ... and "it" is not easy, you need professionalism.
I wish all my colleagues a happy Master.
A hug
Michelangelo

He and 'put in motion the virus ... let's see ... Have a great week, stay tuned!

I'm Clare.
Do not you see me, but there are!
I am part of a "small group of friends" who has long committed to a "small group of Peruvian children," not just lucky. Description unorthodox but that is pretty true to the essence of our tiny Association: Friends of Huaycan - NPO.
The fund raising and overall commitment to the project in Peru for years to help give meaning to my life, succeeding at times and often, to get away from things "small" life.
I entrust myself to a summons.
These few lines written by Italo Calvino, and that we sent along, with our thanks to all supporters.

"He understood this: that associations make the strongest man, and bring out the best qualities of individuals, and give the joy that rarely s'ha understood on its own, to see how many people there are honest and good and capable so it is worth to want good things. "

Beautiful, is not it?!
Greetings to all,
Clare

Marilena Hello, I am the girl in the front row between Francis and Elisa.

What is the fund raising for me?
The big opportunity 'to help people to help others who took to the "trenches"' cause you have noticed that something in this world as it does not go and complain and feel that perhaps not enough just to look!

These special people, often little known, are a resource, an important hope for those who do not realize it

a step of JL Borges says:
"A man who cultivates his garden,
as Voltaire wished.
Who is happy that on earth there
music.
Who is caressing a sleeping animal.
If you prefer that they are right
the other.
Who wants to justify or justify
bad that they did ...
These people, who are ignored, are
saving the world ".

Am I too idealistic? but without hope, without dreams, without love (in the broadest sense), without ideals would really make sense to your life?

A Salutone and a hug to all

I appear in the last row and I guess only the profile is "important" ... I'm a little late but I want my say. The truth is that for me the fundraising is different things on one hand the experience in the non-profit that I made led me to understand how important it is to have planning and organization in proposing the outside. Assume that people who communicate our ideas and our desire to change something should understand regardless of any of our efforts, I was never convinced despite being a very widespread. On the other side for me is a point of arrival and departure of two different paths. Until recently I tried to be one of those who are slamming on the field, who sees all the colors and that draws its strength from this, but I did not have cancer. Today I sit on the side of all those who, like me, just do not stand to live with pain every day before our eyes but with good reasons, however, derive a significant of their lives. I want to address myself to those who donate putting myself in his shoes, trying to explain that at any level of commitment in exchange for the gift brings something important.
I know that I have dwelt but I could write more ... I keep to the 20,000 lines of autobiography ...
