When "God sends no children" the suffering one faces when no children arrive

Motherhood is a natural desire that lives in the hearts of many women. From childhood, we imagine that we become mothers and have children that will fill our lives with joy and love. However, reality can be very different from our dreams.

For some women, the fertility becomes their greatest enemy. Despite their best efforts, months and years pass with no sign of pregnancy. This is a situation painful and complicated, which women often face in silence. Not only do they have to deal with the disappointment and sadness of not being able to fulfill their desire to become mothers, but they also often face the judgment of society and the people around them.

The theme of children treated by Livia Carandente

This theme, treated to exhaustion to then be exploited and put on the back burner has recently been dusted off by Livia CarandenteThrough 2 books semi-autobiographical offerings an insight into what they have to deal with women and highlight that no job or career can ever fill this void.

In the first book she highlights the difference of feeling between women who are realize through one job or another and women frustrated from the impossibility of becoming mothers. In her second book she talks about a theme dear to her, the disposition of mind and the possibility of letting the superficiality of others slip away and of drawing on one's own interiority and one's own spiritual resources. Without ever expiring in melodramatic and lose that pinch of irony that makes life easier.

However, it is clear that maternity and paternity are not linked to a factor of fertility but of happiness and happiness is a gift of God. Fertility is not of the couple but for the couple. A child, even when it's just a wish, is the greatest grace because it makes both the man and the woman more similar to the Creator.
