| It is a short story, but of great significance, because it was an unexpected gift, at a really surprising moment, the last time I received a bouquet of flowers was less than a year ago, I received it from an unknown person, at a time that only I was crossing the street, and they really gave it to me for no special occasion, to further contextualize the moment I tell you that it was an ordinary morning, that I was going to my daughter's school, I was going to pick her up, since she was finishing her school day, just She studies in an area surrounded by flower shops, an emblematic place in Medellín, justly known because the people in charge of marketing the flowers that come from the mountainous areas of the city arrive there, Medellín is known for being the city of eternal spring, everything Throughout the year there are beautiful, fresh flowers available for sale to anyone who requires them, here there is no spring season, only the rainy and summer season, but it really is a privilege to have beautiful flowers all year round, that's why they call it the city of the eternal spring. That afternoon I just crossed the street just before arriving at my daughter's school and a boy approached me and gave me a bouquet of beautiful flowers, at that moment I thought that he wanted to sell it to me, I told him that I had no money at that time. moment, but he very politely told me that it was a gift, he didn't say anything else, he just handed it to me, he smiled and left, I obviously smiled from ear to ear, that is, a big smile, and I thanked him of course, it was a very beautiful, unexpected moment and then it became a memory to reflect on and be thankful for. | Es una historia corta, pero de gran significado, porque fue un regalo inesperado, en un momento realmente sorpresivo, la última vez que recibí un ramo de flores fue hace menos de un año, lo recibí de una persona desconocida, en un momento que solo cruzaba la calle, y realmente me lo regalaron para ninguna ocasión en especial, para contextualizar más el momento les cuento que fue una mañana cualquiera, que me dirigía al colegio de mi hija, la iba a recoger, ya que terminaba su jornada escolar, justamente ella estudia en una zona rodeada de floristerías, un lugar emblemático en Medellín, justamente conocido porque ahí llegan las personas encargadas de comercializar las flores que llegan de las zonas montañosas de la ciudad, Medellín es conocido por ser la ciudad de la eterna primavera, todo el año hay flores hermosas, frescas y disponibles a la venta para todo aquel que las requiera, acá no hay estación de primavera, solo época de lluvia y verano, pero realmente es un privilegio tener flores hermosas todo el año, por eso le dicen la ciudad de la eterna primavera. Esa tarde solo cruce la calle justo antes de llegar al colegio de mi hija y un chico se acercó a mí y me cedió un ramo de hermosas flores, yo en ese momento pensé que me lo quería vender, le dije que no tenía dinero en ese momento, pero él muy educadamente me dijo que era un regalo, no me dijo más nada, solo me lo entrego, sonrió y se fue, yo obviamente sonreí de oreja a oreja, o sea una gran sonrisa, y le agradecí por supuesto, fue un momento muy bonito, inesperado y luego se convirtió en un recuerdo para reflexionar y agradecer. |
@kerrislravenhill for the questions, really very appropriate for the time and especially because it stirs up special feelings in all of us, you take us to remember episodes that perhaps we do not want to remember, or magical moments that we do not forget, thanks for the initiative, and good luck to all
