Life is a mess. Some say it's a journey, some a labyrinth, some a great stormy sea. To me, more than anything, it seems like an old jukebox gone haywire. The kind where you put a coin in, choose your song, but then something completely different always comes out. A wedding march instead of "Rock Around the Clock," a waltz in the middle of a rave. But, ultimately, that's precisely what makes it so fascinating: you never know what's in store, and just when you think you have everything under control, it comes crashing down on you like a runaway train. And I ended up there, without a ticket and on a train that I didn't even understand where it started.Just when I thought my life was already written, with all its little routines, its anxieties, and the usual line at the soup kitchen, the unexpected happened. That unexpected event that changes your course, knocks you out of your comfort zone, and forces you to rewrite your story. The runaway train changed tracks, and I found myself experiencing things I never thought possible. And that's how it all began, with a shopping cart, a shot of chloroform, and a wonderful woman.And from there, chaos. Beautiful chaos, because for the first time in my life, that damned jukebox played a song I never thought I'd dance to. And Angela, yes, she, the one who took my heart and put it in hers, became the melody that never stops ringing in my head. A dream I didn't know I wanted to dream. And then, Tenerife.But let's not get too carried away; every story has its own time, every note its own rhythm. Let me take you on this crazy adventure, through unlikely thefts, kisses in the snow, and a few glasses of whiskey. Because yes, life is a mess, but when you dance through it, well, it can become the most beautiful song you've ever heard.So, are you ready? Let's go.
