In this exciting journey of awareness, Filippo Sabiani, an Italian widower, considers the possibility that the Universe has a particular plan for each of us. Determined to fulfill his shared dream with his wife Maria of living in a lighthouse in northern France, he reaches the quiet village of Deauville, with its 4000 inhabitants located in Normandy, in the department of Calvados. What begins as the afternoon of his existence turns into an extraordinary journey. As Filippo explores Deauville, dowel by dowel, he plunges into a series of significant connections. Each encounter offers Philip and the others the opportunity to share valuable lessons, revealing the plan of the Universe for each of them. His awareness involves passionately anyone who crosses his path, growing in a tangible way and getting closer and closer to the expected answers. Filippo is a person who embraces the value of giving unconditionally, without asking for anything in return, and is open to human connections and universal energy. He discovers that his purpose is to share love, wisdom and experience, creating a chain effect of positivity and inspiration. These encounters enable individuals to embrace life's flow, rely on the universe's processes, comprehend that each individual has a unique destiny, and realize that challenges are opportunities for growth along the way. It is in acceptance, in living the present, in love and in sharing that Filippo and those he meets find a deep and satisfying sense of existence.
