"Chi semina, raccoglie..."

Reap what you sow

Each time difficulties make me think that I need to change my job or that my profession is wrongly not well defended by law in my country, I will read the compliments made by two American travel agents to the Sicilian tour operator that arranged their holiday in Sicily:

The bread, in its plastic bag, was fresh, bought this morning. The notes of the triumphal march of Aida came spontaneously, naturally, to his lips. Humming, he opened the French windows after turning the light one the veranda. Yes, it was a cool night, but still warm enough to eat outside.
