Darius's Coming of Age (2024)

It seems like only yesterday he was a newborn, small and fragile, and now before us stands an adult, ready to embark on his journey to adulthood. Moments like these remind me how fast life moves, how quickly time slips through our fingers like sand...

A FEW WORDS ABOUT DARIUS

As I go through the photos from last night, from Darius's coming-of-age, I can't help but feel a rush of emotions. It seems that only yesterday he was a newborn, small and fragile, and now he is standing before us an adult, ready to start his own journey towards his physical but (inevitably, at the right time) also spiritual maturity. Moments like these remind me how quickly life slips by, how quickly time slips through our fingers like sand.

We've known Darius since he was born. I remember holding him for the first time, marveling at the miracle of life and the infinite possibilities that lay before him. Over the years, I have watched him grow and mature from a good and curious child to the intelligent and balanced man he is today, just like his older brother (PS Robert told me to write this! 😁) .

Unforgettable memories

Our families have shared countless memories together, from family vacations to lazy Sundays spent in the backyard. We laughed together, we cried together and stood by each other through good times and bad times. Darius has remained a constant presence in our lives and what really sets him apart is his humility and kindness. He remained remarkably humble, treating every person he met with respect and compassion, as always!

Time flies...

"Tempus fugit" - time flies, life is fleeting, a delicate dance between joy and sadness, laughter and tears. But amidst the chaos and uncertainty, there is beauty and moments of pure magic that take our breath away. And looking at Darius, surrounded by family and friends, I (re)remember how precious those moments really are - well, I think age speaks for itself, because let's be serious, I wasn't thinking the same way at 18 years 😁.

Well, at the end of the day, what matters is that this craziness of life brings us together in a special way, every time.

Below we have collected some of the best moments from Darius' birthday:

Just Do It, your way...

So, Darius, if life treats you with indifference sometimes, as if it's a script written in haste, without taking into account your preferences, then maybe it's time to take control and write the next scenes your way.. Sometimes , it's best to improvise and dance to your own beat, even when it seems like the rest of the world doesn't understand your choreography.

We raise a glass to you, welcome to our club - the adult club. May your life be filled with memorable adventures and enough moments of joy to brighten your days. We can't wait to see what surprises the universe plans for you!
