This work seems to represent a paradox: the title speaks about "looking ahead" while the look of the face, that emerges from the last pages of a voluminous book, goes backwards, towards a past consisting of many pages.
But there is no contradiction in the title: knowledge of our roots, the history of our family or our nation is essential to be able to consciously project ourselves towards the future.
Without yesterday it is difficult, almost impossible, to build a tomorrow.
The knowledge of who we are and where we come from, with the relative wealth of values and sometimes knots to be dissolved, is essential to proceed with the creation of our future.
The completeness of the face will be built over time through the conquest of complete self-knowledge
