| The dilemma of Pinocchio |
Up to this point the life of Pinocchio took place in the family: it was a piece of wood that had Geppetto carved puppet had become, he began with his pranks, he had taken with Jiminy Cricket and had first attempted a flight from which he had returned in short, was still bound to its original roots with a kind of umbilical cord.
Now, however, has promised to go to school and, aware of the sacrifice, great, made by Geppetto for him, there is good will and full of expectations
Stopped it was snowing, Pinocchio with his fine new ABC book under his arm, took the road that led to the school and along the way, fantasized in his tiny brain and a thousand thousand reasons castles in the air, one is the best.
The expression used by Collodi " fantasized in his tiny brain and a thousand thousand reasons castles in the air " merits consideration. Castles in the Air is a saying now quite common but ancient origin, the fact that he wrote the first Bellincioni Bernardo, Florentine poet who also lived at the court of Lorenzo de 'Medici. Probably this way of saying it was already present in the language spoken and is still an expression so vivid and full of meaning that we could not easily replace it with another equivalent.
Pinocchio builds, then suspended its castles in the air, imagining that the school's rich will open many opportunities for rapid results. His is a highpoint of the future.
And talking to himself saying
- Today, the school, now I want to learn to read: then learn to write tomorrow and tomorrow 's learn to do more numbers. Then, with my skills, earn a lot of money and with the first money I will have in your pocket, now I want to make my father a beautiful wool coat. But I say to cloth? I want to do it to him all the silver and gold, and with diamond buttons. And if the poor man really deserves, because, in short, to buy books and educate myself, was in shirt sleeves ... these cold! There are the fathers that they should be capable of some sacrifices!
How many hopes were built up air foundations, our Pinocchio puts in the fruit of its commitment to school!
not really have set foot in school, but in his heart, live your dreams, and dreams for a boy are not utopias, but projections of himself, expectations are truly cherished and cultivated, are the " was sweet "that characterizes the season happy" they are talking about the poets and that only great men are not forgotten once they become adults.
These dreams are not devoid of anxiety and dismay, but no less loved.
Pinocchio fact "fomenting", we would say today with a simpler language and spontaneous and emotion. E 'sincerely convinced that going to school is a small surrender his freedom. But allow him to achieve so many dreams. But here's the unexpected.
While everything moved so he said he thought he heard the distant music of fife and drum shots: Pi-pi-pi, pi-pi-pi zum, zum, zum, zum.
He stopped and listened.
The sound is alluring and unknown, tickles your curiosity and the puppet shows The dilemma: what to do?
school would be a virtuous act in anticipation of tomorrow, but the fun music is there: present and alive.

That sound is the life calling. How can you resist?
He stopped and listened. The sounds were of the end of a long crossing road that led to a small village property on the seashore.
- What is this music? Too bad I have to go to school, if not ...
and stood perplexed. In any case, it was necessary to make a resolution or at school, or hear the pipers.
- Today I will go to hear the pipers, and tomorrow in school: to go to school there is always time - said that rascal finally shrugging his shoulders.
