Express ten wishes and who knows, everything can change. We close our eyes and think of something beautiful, something magical, who can leave all the difficulties of this year behind for a moment. We have experienced in our skin that everything can change from one day to the next but not the Christmas, which with its colored lights, the laid tables, even if lived in a different way, needs to experience its magical atmosphere. So let's dream, and let's do it like children, in a lighter way.
It is on this message that the initiative started "The Spirit of Christmas", launched by two renowned food blogger, Francesca Guatteri is Luisa Ambrosini. It is a very ancient Christmas ritual Venezuelan origin. At the center is desire, the secret dream. It is a game that gathers young and old, which allows everyone to fantasize with the mind, but above all it is a symbol that can relaunch hope and the opportunity to believe in something better in the future. The appointment is for next 21 December. What will happen this year? What do we want for ourselves and for our loved ones? Meanwhile, a tin box and ten dreams is all you need. Write down your thoughts, what comes from your heart and seal them with a padlock. Next year, in the frenzy of another Christmas, that abandoned box with your wishes will come to mind. Will they have come true? If so, all you need to do is burn them with a red candle, which will light up your face and make you even happier. If not, do not despair, you can try again. The important thing is not to stop believing in it.
This initiative is something that helps to dream of something good, train the mind to always be in search of a positive thought, and here it takes very little that something positive really happens. In this case, for the two food bloggers it was a real unexpected gift. Directly from the Backpacks chocolate factory, for them, a can with 1930s graphics, a historical symbol of this factory, of which its history has almost the taste of a fairy tale. At the center of it all is a woman, Olga Zaini, charismatic, determined that despite the premature death of her husband, founder of the factory in 1913, she was not afraid and reacting with determination and embracing destiny she became one of first Italian industrial women. She, a true champion, an icon of inspiration for all women, but above all for the alliance between them. On behalf of their heroine, Zaini decided to enthusiastically participate in the initiative of the two bloggers, raising the ritual of Christmas spirit.
