A solo with which to say: this is me now. When I start thinking about my biography I am in touch with my emotional body. It is the body as I feel (it is not objectively).
The most complete biography is made of irregular fragments and remains faded. Even his autobiography. We believe we can tell our lives in a clear and reasonable, talking about successes and achievements, and, when we start, we realize that our lives are instead full of dark areas, unexplained episodes (and perhaps unexplainable), choices are not made , lost opportunities, things delayed, rejected offers.
They are murderess, victims and mourners at the funeral at the same time. I had to kill this darker side of me, this something that confuses me and I can not dominate, to allow him to find a place and dignity.
What has been, has also done what was not; what was not, it can still be.
