- Your grandfather proposed to me with a piece of candy. We had nothing, he knelt down and said to me, "Now I have nothing but candy, but if you want, we can build everything together."
- And you?
- I opened the candy, divided it into two parts and we ate it. From that moment on, we shared everything. We fell, we rose and we built.
All together. We experienced difficult times, fatigue, but we were always there for each other. Until the last one.
- Different times, grandma.
- Time doesn't change the way you love.
What has changed is that you no longer have beautiful examples to follow.
Now they are afraid of everything. They don't get married for fear of not being able to build. As soon as they quarrel, they leave because then they think they will find a better one. They always look for perfection as if it existed.
They lack perception of reality. About happiness in small things.
They do a big demo, thousand-dollar rings, over-the-top proposal videos, and then they miss the moment. That intimate thing that you hold together, just the two of you, for life.
This is what they miss. Courage to live and love for who they are, not for what they imagine it to be.
