The Moments of Twitter@Ritornacristo
Twitter tweets
Thanks to the simple, direct and immediate tool of Twitter, I have tried, in parallel with the editorial revision for a renewed look of the 9 LETTERS OF CHRIST, , in order to facilitate their reading and understanding, to extract and highlight certain contents, also through a simple editorial graphics, but designed to focus attention on precise concepts, which in normal reading would flow like the water of a stream, or the views of the landscape from the window of a moving train.
At times, even in just one of the 333 pages in which the text now unfolds, there are paragraphs of such single importance that they overshadow others.
Soon the search for special images contributed more and more to this exercise, to enliven the teachings themselves with more or less intuitive scenarios. Among the most heartfelt challenges was certainly that of Jun 2, 2017, in which Christ describes His experience in the desert… (there are 3 figures, to be seen on X)
I must add that if sometimes the text superimposed on the image gets confused or does not stand out clearly, this is intentional, with the intent of inducing the reader to weigh each word slowly and surely, exactly as the dictation itself took place. These excerpts are treated as posts, but they are not flyers.
The “Moments” Twitter “Moments” allowed from 2015 and for some years to collect and present together the most significant tweets in relation to a particular title-topic. Tweets that could then be easily recalled, regardless of their publication date and consequent position in the general list.

Unfortunately, this specialty has had little use and therefore a short life.
Even before the advent of X, many things and rules have been subverted or removed, from operational staff to ease of access, with respect to which almost all the work I present was born, both internal to the social network and from the links from my Web domains, fed for years and not re-checkable at every step: it is difficult to follow all the metamorphoses and strategies of the new management.
“Moments” at X.com no longer exist except as  tweets of their creation, they do not display any image at the link, sometimes just a X on black background, and “Nothing to see here - yet”.
The only way to see them again is here, through the copy of the @RitornaCristo archive, which saved them along with all the tweets. You can find them in the menu.
For each ‘Moment’ you can browse the individual tweets that composed it, although scattered at different dates in the general list of over 800 (plus various subject tweets, especially at the beginning, not excerpts of texts from the 9
LETTERS).
They are 11, and I created the first one as “The Birth of the ‘MOMENT’”, in homage to the concept of birth.
In any case the images therein – 1 through 4 – are compressed into one that is often cropped in height. They will only be fully visible, with their statistics of likes and reposts, by clicking View on Twitter  , which takes you to the original, and perhaps clicking it again at X if it is large, with the multiple images browsable one by one.

It concluded the creation of tweets just like Nine hundredth, a post from Twitter that reminded me of the eighth anniversary of the presence of @RitornaCristo. Perhaps also one of the MASTER's playful nods, since while the 9[000] echoed the LETTERS, the last tweet featured a graphic number 8 artfully cut out, which is the number of CHRIST (you can guess it in the LETTERS), even if the person who produced it certainly didn't think that.
| Of the total tweets visible in the archive 6 are missing (maybe 8, since I added two on Nov 18, 2024 to warn @Support of errors in the previous archive, of which I leave one here for reference by deleting the duplicate, but which I do not see at X), probably relating to posts from external profiles retweeted by me or to which I replied (on rare occasions, since always in the name of Christ), and when I requested the archive they were no longer active.
One was altered by an operator of X.com, after having lost an internal retweet, as I explain at
christ.direct download page.
Note that tweets that only show text often carry links to images or external tweets, such as retweets, which cannot become archive parts of the @RitornaCristo profile, but if they exist they are visible in their place by clicking View on Twitter
