Don Quixote (2024) Ink drawing by Maurizio Puglisi "To think that the things of this life must always remain fixed in one point is to think in vain; in fact it seems that life goes in circles, I mean, come and go: spring follows summer, summer follows autumn, autumn follows winter, winter springs, and so time returns to revolve uninterruptedly; only human life runs to its end faster than the wind, without waiting to be renewed, if not in the other which has not boundaries that limit it."

Ink drawing by Maurizio Puglisi Private collection Ikigai (生 き 甲 斐) is a Japanese term which, translated, means "something to live for" or "a reason to exist" (the equivalent of the French "raison d’être"). An ikigai is essentially a reason to get up in the morning. According to Japanese culture, we all have an ikigai but we don't always know it. Obviously it is something positive, which makes us wake up with a smile on your lips, the charge and the enthusiasm just to face the day. For this reason, the term ikigai often indicates the loved one. The search for one's ikigai requires a deep introspection and is fundamental if one wants to achieve satisfaction, serenity, happiness, this is because ikigai gives us back the meaning of our life. What are your passions? What is your mission? What are your vocations and your job? From the union of these groups, your ikigai originates. inks pen ,ballpoint pen on paper 220 g/m
