Ninni

today I’ve found myself slipping in and out of childhood memories in this house. we’ve visited once or twice a year for most of my life, and nothing much has changed. Nonna’s oasis. I chatted with Ninni today, Nonno’s bird who is older than I am. I find it strange that my cat is older thansome of the most important people in mylife. it’s even scarier to think a tiny bird has been around longer than most of my friends. I leave the country tomorrow, my mind is buzzing and my heart feels a little heavy. I’m grateful whilst aware of the fact I won’t be seeing most of what matters to me in a very long time. I guess today has been comforting by showing me that some things don’t change. sweet dreams.
