“Non si cresce di colpo. Non ci si alza al mattino scoprendo di essere diventati adulti durante la notte. Si cambia poco alla volta, un passo dopo l’altro. Sbiadisce il ricordo delle cose che ci hanno fatto soffrire, giorno dopo giorno, una lacrima dopo l’altra. Un sorriso alla volta, svaniscono anche le cose che ci hanno fatto battere forte il cuore. Quell’attore per cui abbiamo passato notti insonni. Quella canzone che ascoltavamo tutto il giorno. Quel gioco che ci piaceva fare mentre fuori pioveva. Il primo ragazzo di cui ci siamo innamorate. L’amica del cuore. Quando passano gli anni si cresce. E crescere vuol dire cambiare, è un dato di fatto. Non si sfugge a questa legge: è come la rotazione terrestre, non si ferma e basta. Nasci, cresci, invecchi e credi di essere sempre te stesso anche se lungo la strada hai perso così tanti pezzi di te che, se fossi una macchina. dell'originale sarebbe rimasto solo il telaio.”
