Happy Easter!

“(…) we always strive, in one way or another to find somewhere what we lack. Somewhere, anywhere in the world or in the spirit, everywhere except where we are, where we have been placed: but it is there, and nowhere else, that the treasure is. In the environment that I feel like my natural environment, in the situation that the destiny dealt me, in what happens to me day after day, in what the daily life asks me.”
Martin Buber

La Mercanti wishes you a happy Easter!
