I have to kill my dream
Apr. 19th, 2007 08:44 pmTwo days ago I was crying, yesterday I was dying inside and today I began to feel better (thanks also to my friends, real and pen, who are wonderful...)
Unfortunately I have to come to a decision that makes me very sad: I have to give up my share in Cafe au Livre, my dream. It is a very young business and it needs money that I don't have, so to let it live, I have to sell my share to my business partner, who has the money.
But I really fear that my partner will transform it in a mere coffe-restaurant, killing the bookstore. Maybe is better so, cause I really don't want that my dream survive without me (I'm really egoistical, I know, but can't think in other way)
The good news is that I have a good by day work, so no financial problem for me and a lot of spare time in the future to read more and spread the word here in Italy about beautiful novels I read in english...
From today on I change my icon: for now I have chosen a rose blossom, maybe it will bring me fortune, blossom of a new dream...

I hope so - cafe bookshops are like heaven to me and I hope you will be able to start the dream again one day...
