你记得我曾花了多长时间教会你这些事吗?……”

　　dear son...

　　the day that you see me old and i am already not, have patience and try to understand me …

　　if i get dirty when eating… if i cannot dress… have patience.

　　remember the hours i spent teaching it to you.

　　if, when i speak to you, i repeat the same things thousand and one

　　times… do not interrupt me… listen to me

　　when you were small, i had to read to you thousand and one times the same story until you get to sleep…

　　when i do not want to have a shower, neither shame me nor scold me…

　　remember when i had to chase you with thousand excuses i invented, in order that you wanted to bath…

　　when you see my ignorance on new technologies… give me the necessary time and not look at me with your mocking smile…

　　i taught you how to do so many things… to eat good, to dress well… to confront life…

　　when at some moment i lose the memory or the thread of our conversation… let me have the necessary time to remember… and if i cannot do it, do not become nervous… as the most important thing is not my conversation but surely to be with you and to have you listening to me…
