But I think ...
that my / your generation is prepared
to a new world and a new-born hope,
to a future that has already in hand,
an uprising without weapons,
because we all now we know
that if God has died for three days and then rises again,
in what we believe God is risen,
in what we want God is Risen
in the world we do ... God is risen ...
God is risen,
in what we believe God is risen,
in what we want God is Risen
in the world that we ... God is risen ...
God is risen ...

people my age go
along the roads that never lead to anything,
seek the dream that leads to madness
in search of something for which there
in the world who have, in the nights that are wet with wine,
inside the bedroom pads processed
along with clouds of smoke from a world of cities,
to be against swallow our civilization tired
is a God who is dead,
roadside God is dead,
in cars made in installments God is dead,
myths summer God is dead ...
I have been told ...
that my generation now does not believe
in what have often masked by faith,
myths of the eternal homeland of the hero and
because now the time has come to deny
all that is false, the rings made of habit and fear,
a policy is only to career
concerned respectability, dignity, made of empty
the hypocrisy of those who are always with reason and never from the wrong
is a God who is dead,
camps / extermination in all God is dead,
with myths of racial God is dead,

The saint of the day (but he has dedicated the entire month!) is officially regarded by the Catholic Church than all the saints and second only to Madonna, as to be considered the patron saint of the Universal Church, and is invested in the popular devotion of countless charitable.
fact, he is considered the protector : fathers of families (which in the common Roman pater familias unites the characteristics of rigor tempered by affection, making the example, the model, the mirror itself not only of his father, but also of the devoted husband and, for the Church, the example of man who knows great obey God's will by taking responsibility for one's neighbor is also giving up his rights, so the day today is considered the anniversary of Father's Day!), households (for which Madonna is celebrated together with the Jesus and the Feast of the Holy Family Sunday between December 26 and January 1, or December 30 if no recourse at that time on Sunday), girls from husband, fryers (and you will see below why!), carpenters, cabinet-makers, carpenters (Which have always been the main promoters of his party!) , craftsmen and workers in general (that is celebrated as a carpenter [or employee] on May 1, almost universally recognized day to celebrate the Feast of workers, commonly known as Labor Day), of the poor, the homeless , of pioneers, immigrants, dying (which is invoked to obtain a good death!), and also invoked against the temptations of the flesh and against wear.
The festival dedicated to him is bound to certain traditions, although variations from place to place, show however a common denominator of popular origin, sometimes even when legendary pagan.
provenance popular preterite now is the custom of some countries of Sicily (as well as other regions of Italy), to invite the poor to the lunch of the day, whose table was blessed by a priest and served by the landlord. In some places, even the banquet was set up in church, while two priests serving the poor, preached third nine times, as many as were the dishes that were served.
This in memory of a refusal, when her husband caring for a young pregnant woman ready for delivery, asked in vain for shelter for himself and his wife while they were fleeing persecution and wandering stranger in a region. Highly treacherous act that violates two sacred feelings dictated by the ius gentium : hospitality & family love.
Legendary is the origin of production and consumption in his honor, mainly in central and southern, sweet (especially fried [pancakes]) more or less filled or topped with custard and black cherry (as well as ricotta), of various shapes , Bill & name (donuts, cream puffs, fried rice, fried raisins, "sfinci).
Thisin commemoration, perhaps, the fact that St. Joseph, as well as the carpenter, after fleeing to Egypt, would also act as a seller of pancakes, earning well, at least by the Roman people, the affectionate nickname of S. Joseph frittellaio.
The pay is far down the soil where the roots of the custom to perform in this celebration of the bonfires in various parts of Italy, the North and South, alike in form, substance and, at times in the name (focarine, St. Joseph, of course!) . On this occasion, in fact, burning crop residues in fields and for this purpose accumulate large amounts of twigs to create huge bonfires that are lit by the roadside while they are served and offered friends and wayfarers dishes, such as, in Calabria, the "lagane" (kind of noodles of Greek origin) with the chickpeas, along with other delicacies typical of the rural culture, accompanied not only by the inevitable wine, music the musicians and the shouts of joy of children. When the fire is about to become extinct, with some climbing over the big jumps, while the old women, spinning, singing hymns to the saint.
latter custom in some places had fallen into disuse, but fortunately the love for their land and their customs & habits, led, those who still believe in the traditions, to revive.
Since the celebration of the holy coincides with the end of winter, this was done in overlap replacement and subsequent removal, of the pagan festivities connected with agricultural rites of purification, known as Liberals, because dedicated the Italic god of fertility, wine and vices Free. Festivities beginning on the month and lasted 17 days and included the following rest working and relaxing with parties and entertainment, especially by adolescents from adults who received the toga of manhood, making official entry into the community of adults. For more
the title of "Father" as the god, and its iconography, which represented him with a boy at his side (somewhat 'as Saint Joseph with Jesus!) , that have facilitated the process of assimilation.
also the day dedicated to the god Free Father ate cakes, a tradition that, subsequently, with the contamination of frittellaio legend of a saint, has turned into one of the pancakes.
For all these reasons, the secular party of the father could only be celebrated on this date, though only when he arrived in Italy they decided to do so. It appears that the custom will be received by the U.S., where he was celebrated for the first time around the early twentieth century, when a young woman decided to dedicate a special day to his father, the lord SMART in June, to coincide with the birthday.
In the beginning was born as a national holiday, subsequently repealed, but still continues to be felt by a recurrence, as well as an opportunity for families, and especially for the children to celebrate their dad.
By virtue of this, alongside the more traditional cakes, biscuits have been joined by the father of a reason to celebrate in this place, like the family, where it seems that fewer and fewer as you celebrate!
Finally, let us put a poem about my father and, for those who believe the act of consecration in S. Italy Joseph.

The saint today, the patron saint of Ireland, so warmly celebrated the Irish community at home and abroad, with the typical warm devotion of a people of love, we feel particularly close, and not only for the countless occasions for celebration that many local Irish-inspired spread in our town propinano . Ireland & Italy, the Irish & the Italians, yet so far away geographically and linguistically, they have traits in common that make them similar in diversity.
Both lands invaded and hostels secular alien rapist; both peoples forced migration and elsewhere outcasts.
Both land not yet fully redeemed; both peoples still not completely united.
Ambed
ue stories imbued with the same religious Catholic. 
Anch and flags in their similarity, despite the diversity of their proportions (2:1 & 3:2), seem sisters!
Ireland & Italy, Irish & Italian: Two Lands & two peoples.
Love!
