"It is difficult to be strong in those moments [at the death of a loved one]: and when you can't take it anymore, those who love you intervene. On the other hand, it is not even a good example for children to always prove themselves strong. How do you explain to him that you loved someone so much, then he disappears and you are still toned and cheerful? It would have been uneducational and false. I dressed in black, I couldn't bear to see myself in other colors: I would never have imagined it before but at that moment it was like that. Society doesn't allow you to be sad, everyone tells you: "Come on, let's go out"."
