After watching your message on TV, I decided to give a contribution describing my experience which took place a few years ago. When I was eleven I started a new journey in my life, in other words I started attending middle school and I had to face a huge mountain which seemed insurmountable. I did not know much about my father, he seemed to me like a stranger in the house, but it was then, for almost three years, that a new relationship started, not one such as father – daughter but as a master – disciple. He taught me important things and above all the love for mathematics, sciences and knowledge. I still remember our Sundays and our many Mondays spent together doing mathematics and geometry contests. He once told me that what he was giving me I had to return it to others, and thus at fifteen, I started helping troubled kids whose family asked for help to oratories in order to help them finding enthusiasm in life. Now I am here to give you my little and modest help.
