Your Stage : People, not ‘characters.’ by Emanuele Vergari

Emanuele Vergari

People, not ‘characters.’

People, not ‘characters.’ People who have a life whose story I tell. They are fragments of humanity that like an archaeologist I find, excavate, collect, and undeservedly reassemble. It is a gift, not a skill, a responsibility, not a vanity. Writing is an immersion in humanity and humanity I need. I cannot be on the outside, but inside its tragedies and resurrections, its everydayness of which I am a participant, not a spectator. It is the reason why in this blog I write not only about a more or less professional activity, but about life.

And listening to the stories that people tell me, whisper in my ear, their desires, their dramas, missed dreams, unfulfilled loves, unredeemed faults, all take energy and time that totalize my existence and give me a center, an opportunity to rescue my life from a path of unfinished fragments. On the threshold of the third act of my life what I thought little more than a passion becomes inescapable.

Hi, Emanuele Vergari. Great to meet you. I’m a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator. I wanted to let you know I moved your post from the Introduce Yourself Lounge to the Your Stage Lounge. You can talk about these things in your introduction post, but you need to introduce/reintroduce yourself to the community. You could check out other posts in the Introduce Yourself Lounge to get ideas for your introduction post. Let me know if you have any questions.
