Love.
The fundamental basis of a carer is love, love of one's neighbour, love of oneself and love of beauty. We see daily gestures of love, we are surrounded by love and happiness, even if some moments are harder than others.
I will never cease to be amazed at how much love it takes to care for someone else, how much love it takes to care for your spouse, your mother or father, your brother or sister or simply a stranger. But they are not strangers, are they? None of your customers are strangers, each one has already told you the story, each one has smiled and melted your heart, but still how much love?
How much love does it take to take care of these people? How much love does it take for you to take care of your wife? Your husband?
I'm fascinated by the care these simpatico old men have for each other. So much love, so much love and so much happiness. After 50 years, after 60 years they still love each other, and how much they love each other. How much love they carry in their hearts for the one next to them, how much happiness and how many smiles they give them. We are part of their happiness and yet I never cease to be amazed.
Love means small gestures, like happiness, but love is firmer, stronger and especially more lasting.
Every day we witness gestures of love, every day we see how these nice old people take care of their husbands and wives, every day we see how they smile at each other and how they speak beautiful words to each other.
My dears, without love there is nothing. We are love, we are the ones who transmit love and happiness and we are the ones who learn how to love everything and everyone. It is not an easy thing, but neither is it hard. You just have to find your balance.
I found it, did you find it?
