It was a beautiful day at the Amadores (Lover’s) beach. The sky was clear without any cloud, and the sun was shining.
I was on my way back to my sunbed, when I noticed a girl in her 20s on a chair with wheels. Then she took a run to the beach…on one leg. Then was when I realized she was missing a leg and two arms. Probably she suffered a car accident or a shark attack, or some disease left her that way. But not this is the thing I wanted to share, nor the important one.
Soon, her boyfriend came and took her in his arms to the shore. He took good care of her and did everything she couldn’t. They acted really normal and really in love. They went in the ocean and enjoyed the little waves that came to the side. Then admired the view and enjoyed each others company. They had a perfect day at the beach and probably had more fun than many of us that day.
What is their secret? They learned to appreciate the really important things in life, like each other and the love they shared. They learned how to see with their hearts and they had a perfect day because they were there for each other, with the one that was kind for their heart.
We shouldn’t take anything for granted. Never our better half or even ourselves, as we don’t know what tomorrow may bring. We all should see just with our heart.
I will try.
