Lei: Cosa c'è di divino nell'essere giovane madre di un figlio arrivato per grazia o per caso? Ci si augura per lui una vita buona: che non incontri il male, che il mondo lo accolga o almeno lo lasci in pace. È la storia umanissima di Maria, Madre di Dio bambino, la stessa di ogni madre per cui il proprio bambino è Dio, vita che si consegna fragilissima e si promette eterna. Ma il figlio di Maria è troppo speciale perché la storia sia solo questa e infatti sarà altra, raccontata per generazioni in poesia, in pittura, in musica, nel vetro, nel ghiaccio immacolato, a punto croce, sulle volte delle cattedrali e sui selciati delle piazze.
What is divine in being a young mother of a son came by grace or by accident? Hopefully for him a good life: that does not meet the evil which the world welcome him or at least leave him alone. It is a very human story of Mary, mother of God child, the same as every mother that her child is God's eternal life is fragile and delivery promises. But the son of Mary is special too because the story's just this and it will be another, retold for generations in poetry, in painting, in music, in glass, in the ice pristine, cross stitch, on the vaults of cathedrals and cobbled squares. This is Maria. Together with her father, Joseph, who said yes without understanding, without even uttering this Yes, Builder of a project of life and love much greater than imagined. Around her, men and women who think they understand, but they just chat; and friends of his son, John, Simon, Judas and even Nicodemus, that rush of questions in the night; and doctors and Pharisees seeking the truth only to deny. Above her, finally, Angels Crown, but with their wings fail to keep away the great evil of the world, which thickens until someone will shout: "death." What remains is a broken body without grace, delivered to a mother still young, even in extreme moment so similar to so many mothers. But that's a story too immense because everything can be lost.
