I spent a few hours talking to Laís, it had been a long time since my birthday, then I never spoke to her again because I avoided too much contact, I knew perfectly well what her husband was like, so I avoided future problems that could disrupt their relationship. There are things that it is better to avoid and remedy because we never know where the evil of human beings goes."Friend how long until today I don't know why you walked away from me, did you know? - Laís, everyone has their own life and you needed to live yours as a family, that's why I walked away!""Wow, Ana, it didn't have to be like that, that way you completely excluded me, it's good that your mother is here.""Laís, I didn't know that my mother was sick, because nobody told me or maybe they didn't want to, right? thought you.""It's true, I took a break I needed that time, but now I'm here, what matters isn't it?- Yes, for sure! And changing the subject, Ana, did you finally get married?- No, I gave up! It's a compli
"Guys, how do you put up with my mother like this? Not with all the illness in the world, she changes amazingly, I see that things are very different around here!""Yes, we just let her talk now and we don't listen, I believe you should do the same, Ana.""Brian, it's so different for someone who hated my mother and now living with her is something very strange! Well, I'll come back another time when she's not attacked anymore. I'll see my father. I haven't seen her for a long time."Ana, be patient with your mother, she suffered a lot with the surgery she had, it's still recent and then she disappeared, everything got confused.""Guys, what's the part I didn't disappear and how was I to know Brian was looking for me? I think you're making a storm out of a molehill again.""Ana, we can go out at night just like in the old days and your room is unoccupied, your mother will love it please!- Uncle, Filipe, I even thank you more andbetter not my mother suffocates me."I had to find a way
Chapter 73What a mistake that I came here thinking that she was bad, but she's not really well. It's ignorance because he doesn't know how to understand, one moment he supports me with Brian, and another he says that we don't work out, that shit I should have listened to Leandra."Honey, are you going to come back? - Uncle, Filipe, I don't know, I'm going to get my things and get out of here, you're sorry but my mother tired me.""Leandra?- My friend, have you seen what time it is?- Sorry, I need to talk, things here aren't going well!- Wow, I told you but you didn't want to listen to me, what are you going to do?- I'm going to come back, here it's not my place anymore My mother and I hate each other and seriously!- Jeez, I don't want a mother like that!"And I'm going to sort out some things here and come back, there's a friend who needs me, so I'm going to stay a few more days.""My friend, your place is here and it will always be if you take care, anything calls me, okay? - Yes, i
I really didn't believe what my mother wanted and this time she wanted to see me and Brian happy. It was something I waited for years and when I gave up she understood that it didn't matter that we were from the same family, that she accepted our relationship without arguments, etc.We all make mistakes at some (or many) moments in our lives, and this is normal, after all we are human, we are not born knowing everything and our existence is limited to a great continuous process of learning. I believe that my mother regretted it this time and could see from her mistakes that if she stayed that way she would end up losing me for good.Who has never needed a light to indicate the best direction? Or a sign capable of redirecting steps, thoughts and actions? Sometimes, even though we are convinced that we find the answers we need within ourselves, we have difficulty recognizing them precisely because of the lack of tools that teach us how to do this. After all, how many times are we faced
"It's been a long time since we've done this, right guys?- It's true Laís!- I miss everything back then!- Me too!"It was late, almost dawn and the three of us were there in the playground remembering everything good. Time really doesn't come back! Because if I went back, I would do everything differently to make it work. We were the three of us trying to understand why the world is so cruel, considering that we can live well without lies, fights and unnecessary disagreements.My life was constantly changing, in which I tried hard to fight for what I wanted less in love, because that part didn't depend on me alone, but on who I chose for my life. But things really don't go the way we want and we have to understand."Well, the game is great but we have to go, it'll be dawn soon! - Stop being so smug Laís, how about we go to the little bar we always went to when we were young, I bet it's open.""I agree with Brian, what about you my friend?- No, I know, it can't be a bad idea!- Dude, Laí
My God, that boy who was next to me wanted to see his father happy. His empathy and understanding enveloped me like a warm hug, giving me strength and courage to face any challenge that life would throw at me yet. My ability to listen and understand is a gift, and I am grateful to everyone who has advised and encouraged me in this way. Plus, my mom was a constant source of inspiration after all. I admire her unique way of seeing the world and the way she lives life with passion and authenticity after her determination to pursue my dreams and help me face obstacles is truly inspiring, and motivates me to pursue my own personal ones as well. That's when I thought all they needed was just attention and this case was no different than Brian's son.Know that films and books always try to tell us that romantic love is the only one that can make us happy and, therefore, it is the only one we should look for. I learned from society that friendship is cool when we are children; in adulthood, i
I didn't say anything to Brian's son, not even if I wanted to leave. I asked him to go to sleep, as it was already late and as his father had spent the whole night drinking, as soon as he woke up and went back to sleep, he looked like an angel."Honey, look, I just want you to lie down next to your father and hug him and when he wakes up tell him that I love him because your love is the only pure and true one.""Auntie, Ana, don't you love my father anymore? - It's nothing like that now, please go!"That boy is too smart for his age."I noticed that everyone was sleeping and I needed time to pack my things and leave, live with love or without love. Because it is God who chooses and not us! I was going to call my friend Leandra and find out how things were going and then Laís just to make sure everything was ok.I went down the stairs very quietly so that no one could even hear the sound of the door opening and when I was about to leave for good I was surprised by Brian, leaving the kit
Before leaving, I said goodbye to my best friend, and made sure she was okay and happy because I was just in the dust."Ana, what are you doing here at this time? - My friend, I'm leaving and now I feel terrible because I told Brian everything I was feeling!"My friend, it was better that way, with time you will understand your feelings. I want you to be happy and thank you for everything."So finally the time has come, my heart seemed to have broken in half but I will recover and I hope that one day I can see him living life in a simpler, more correct way."Brian, are you going to stay here with that face and let the love of your life go like that? - For God's sake, don't worry, take care of your health, that's right, because you've already lost your daughter.""Look, Filipe, what a naughty boy I'm trying to help him and I'm still insulted like that! - Honey, please let him go, there are things he's right about."My desire to be happy was greater than the pain that made me think abou
Happiness does not have a recipe, a right way or an exact time to arrive. It is an intense feeling that comes completely from within us, and can even be influenced by external factors, yes, but it is our heart that is the true source from which this pure and true emotion arises.Being happy is not a matter of having, but a matter of feeling and appreciating that there is happiness even in the smallest moments, as we can feel it in the smile of a child, in a song we love or in a hug from someone special, the With each breath we can feel such happiness as the air that enters our lungs. Furthermore, nothing better to feed this emotion within us than the inspiration that comes from music and beautiful words.Therefore, through messages, poems, phrases and reflections, we put all our happiness in each letter so that you can find the spark needed to light the biggest fire of happiness and joy inside your heart! After all, life is made up of small joyful moments, which together build our sto
Certainly no one likes to feel disappointed, whether with a person or some long-awaited moment, no one likes to have an unpleasant surprise. Disappointment can often be linked to an expectation that is always very positive in relation to daily situations.Expecting all circumstances to be negative will also not help us exclude disappointment from our lives, the most important thing of all is to think that everything is unpredictable and depends on several factors to end in a positive or negative way.When we realize that this fact did not happen as we expected, we cannot believe that we are so powerful that the future will happen perfectly as planned. Although planning is a good guide to avoid an inconvenience or mistake, we have to rely on chance and unforeseen events that cannot be controlled.To be happy, sometimes you have to exercise detachment and give up many things. So, whenever you feel the need, let go and give up!Let go of what didn't work in the past. Let go of regrets. L
Chapter 101One of the bravest decisions I could make in my life to be happy! Often, it is from the worst endings that the best new beginnings come. And that's how everything fell into place in our relationship. When I thought I was no longer able to continue walking, I stood up and continued forward. It is this strength and ability that made me the special person I am now.No matter how big the storm, one day the sun will shine brightly again. I let all my fears come out of me. My heart will have more space to live my dreams and projects. Because it wasn't just the dream of marrying Brian, and being a mother, there are still many things I want to experience with them. I have always been strong and resilient, and I never surrendered. And I always remembered to fight for what I want, value what I have as much as possible, keep the best I have, forget everything that I have, and enjoy life and the good things it has!I looked around me. And I saw the importance of Brian, who was by my s
Sometimes, we just need a company that pleases us and makes us truly happy, that even in silence understands and completes us and that just wants to make small talk and talk about life. In these moments I observe that few have this chance, but thanks to Brian, and his presence, it was possible for us to be together again with the right company.It's impossible not to reveal my happiness, joy and not show my radiant smile. The emotion when I see you takes over me and in many moments I don't know how to act. But I know that by your side I can show who I really am and I can calm down again. I want to rest my head on your shoulder and hear you say that everything will be fine, because we are made for each other.Today I'm just looking for a little peace. I want my heart to receive a portion of joy and for everything to simply go well. I don't need much to feel like my life is complete, nor do I need great things to be happy. Being well with myself will always be my greatest treasure.Why
Years passed….After I finally married Brian, we continued living in Orlando and his father and my mother returned to California. Our life is complete, we learn to deal with our problems without involving anyone and the funniest thing is that we laugh at everything we went through to reach a happy ending.Today my life is summed up in 4 because one of the things I most wanted to have with Brian was to have our son and God blessed us in that way. I haven't had time to tell my mother yet, but I was thrilled with this news.Whenever my hands run over the skin of my belly and caress the curve of my belly that holds precious treasure, I understand what a blessed woman I am. It's a divine gift to have a baby grow inside me and feel every movement he makes as he waits for his time to know the light of the world.I will cherish every moment of the pregnancy and forever carry in my heart all the beautiful feelings I am experiencing. Being a mother is an incomparable happiness and discovering i
Among all the ways of loving, the one we feel for our family is certainly the most difficult to explain. They are with us in the best and worst moments, and even with all the disagreements, love always speaks louder over any argument. , very much as I always wanted.It is a love that overcomes all differences, accepting each person with their respective peculiarities and when there is some distance, longing soon arrives. It's a feeling so strong that it leads us to make the same mistakes, only to not see sadness touch any of them.Along with this love is friendship, a very sincere type that always values loyalty. It is an eternal marriage, which despite all the difficulties that life imposes on us, nothing takes away our desire to remain side by side.We receive this love in our cradle, and we learn early on what a hug feels like. A love that we carry inside our chest and is always ready to be shared. Happy are those who can live this love completely, because to live it to its maximum
Brian and I have to go through all this to be together afterwards. Life was not easy, I believe it is not for anyone, but when we trust that everything will be fine in the end and why won't it be? I really thought about giving up, but I always went back to everything.I believed that my mother would never accept us and to this day I try to understand why all this happened so that in the end she would see that she hurt her and not me and she had to accept the relationship. To me in the past she owes a romance like mine, but it didn't work out or she couldn't be happy with the person she loved and she wished that I wouldn't be happy with Brian either, or maybe she was angry with me for some reason that maybe she could having ruined your life with my arrival.Life takes turns and how! Brian, many times showed his opposite feelings because he wanted to live instead of living in a relationship since childhood and every time he made a mistake I was there once again all because I loved him.
Living is a daily challenge. Life gives us no respite, no matter what moment we are going through, the world will not stop to wait for us to catch our breath.The train keeps moving and we cannot be left behind, even though in many moments we just want to contemplate the landscape and let the train go through the mountains.It is true that at times we need to step back. Walk slower, but if we stop we get run over. The world demands of us to be strong, but that does not mean being hard, neither with ourselves nor with others. It is necessary to find a middle ground, not too heavenly and not too earthly.Our solution, in many moments, is to learn to listen to our heart. It is he who gives us the rhythm of life. Sometimes you need to remain silent to know what step to take, which train station to get off at and how to continue the journey. We all make mistakes, the difference is that only some manage to learn from the mistakes they make.Among so many problems and difficulties that arise
Finally, after so much suffering, my happiness arrived. And this time there was no one or anything to get in the way, many times we want to have our own lives for ourselves, thinking that we know everything, but it's not like that, we have to be mature enough to make our own choices and the law of life is how we do it. learn. My only question was would it be eternal? I don't know what will happen, I just know that I'm living what I've always really wanted. I believe everyone is happy, my friend Laís, she's with her daughter and Leandra, this one isn't worth anything, she just throws it in the wrong place, because she's having an affair with the funny girl who got into trouble, that is, catching the woman who had a crush on Brian.This is how a new life arrives because we want it that way and it doesn't matter the time because when there is love, why not fight for it? I thought that the story of falling in love with the same person every day was just more cliché romance talk, until it
