What do we feel when we create art?

Creating art is a unique experience that makes us feel many different emotions. On the one hand, we experience an intimate and personal moment in which we feel completely immersed in our creative world. On the other hand, we feel driven to share and try to communicate something meaningful to others.

When I create art, I feel a mixture of emotions: love, passion, desire, despair... but above all, wonder. The same wonder I felt as a child when I encountered something I never expected.

Art can be unpredictable and surprising. We feel a sense of wonder and satisfaction when we generate something that exceeds our expectations.

(Creare arte è un'esperienza unica che ci fa provare molte emozioni diverse. Da un lato, si vive un momento intimo e personale, in cui ci sentiamo completamente immersi nel nostro mondo creativo. Dall'altro, ci sentiamo spinti alla condivisione e cerchiamo di comunicare qualcosa di significativo agli altri.

Quando creo arte, sento un misto di emozioni: amore, passione, desiderio, disperazione... ma soprattutto stupore. Lo stesso stupore che provavo da bambino quando mi trovavo di fronte a qualcosa che non mi sarei mai aspettato.

L'arte può essere imprevedibile e sorprendente. Quando generiamo qualcosa che supera le nostre aspettative, proviamo un senso di meraviglia e gratificazione.)

40 minutes of happiness 🧡🏃

Yesterday I ran my fifth cross-country race, and it was forty minutes of pure happiness. Even in the moments of greatest suffering, I felt great. I was experiencing physical pain, but I was still pumped and kept thinking about how much I enjoyed the experience.

In my life, I have practiced various sports, such as basketball as a teenager, swimming, Thursday night soccer with friends, and skiing. I have also walked a lot and gone on many hikes. However, I have never been as involved as I am in running.

I love running, especially in company, and I love races. I can feel all the beauty of movement, the body breathing, and the mind being free.

I like to share the sport I love with other people. It's fun, exciting, and there is an emotion that unites most runners. I live competition with great serenity. When an athlete passes me, I think about how good they are; when I pass someone else, I do it with lightness.

Experiences like yesterday's are very precious. Recently, I have participated in various running events in less-than-optimal conditions, with a cold or shortly after the flu. Yesterday, on the other hand, I was feeling good and had no worries. The temperature was fantastic, and the grass had a green that entered my soul.

At the end of the cross, I was tired but full of energy and couldn't wait to dive into the next trail in a couple of weeks.
