When won­ders is all around us

Today is the world poe­try day and the world Down syn­drome day. Incre­dible how things can go along toge­ther. Are you won­de­ring why? Let’s think about this. Poe­try and Down Syn­drome share some­thing simi­lar in my head, or should I say in my heart. One of my pas­sion is human. No one can be left behind. When you know that more than 5 Mil­lions people “have” this syn­drome, you can’t ignore them. I know someone part of this group. He didn’t choose it like I didn’t choose to be part of ano­ther group either. But some­thing ama­zing is the way this syn­drome adds a rich­ness in our inter­ac­tions. Let me explain this. When I com­mu­ni­cate with someone, usual­ly I get much infor­ma­tion from ver­bal and non-ver­bal sources. With my friend, it is dif­ferent. It is as if I was not able to catch all these signal. This is why I feel so pas­sio­nate about dif­fe­rences among us. Being all simi­lar would be a catas­trophe. Not being able to catch these signal doesn’t mean that there’s none. Like poe­try, the miracle is not right in front of us. It lies beneath the sur­face and requires honest humi­li­ty to show that we ignore at first and that we wish to learn and dis­co­ver extra­or­di­na­ry treasures.
