During a travel in Romania as a social clown, in October 2006, together with my friends we visited an institute hosting orphaned.

Something broke and, at the same time, something was born in me. It was a new awareness that, left for years at the bottom of my heart, day after day, pulse after pulse, helped me in writing this audiobook.
