Once upon a time there was a girl who lived convinced that happy endings were possible, but all that princes and the love of your life, they weren't, she used to think there was no one in the world who could make her happy, she considered herself demanding and self-sufficient, why should she need a man in her life?

One day she decided to go for a walk when she suddenly heard a deafening noise behind her, she turned around and met a man who threw his garbage bag in the dumpster and accidentally dumped it, she automatically thought he was considerably silly. 

The man kept making noise, but now it was a thump, she decided to hold back to see why all the fuss?, and suddenly she realized that the man was blind, so she regretted about her previous thoughts,  she decided to stop for a moment and help him. Cautiously she approached and asked him carefully, almost like a whisper 

Is there anything I can do for you? And the man replied – No problem, this happens to me all the time, but if you could help me get home, I would appreciate it too much.

. 

She agreed and asked - Where is your house? - To which the man answered – It is over there, at the end of the street, it must be a red house.

Is there anything I can do for you?

No problem, this happens to me all the time, but if you could help me get home, I would appreciate it too much. 

She took him very carefully, upon arriving at this, he mentioned that it was not much, but he could live within his means with the help of his neighbors, although sometimes they could not help either, because sometimes they find it too difficult to make end meet with their expenses.  

She noticed how destitute the gentleman might feel being there alone, so she proposed to visit him once a week.

And so it was, there were occasions that she brought him food, money, clothes, and whenever she went she realized the arsenal that the man had of books, although she wondered why, none handled Braille language for what she had seen, so she always regretted asking the reason for many book at there. 

However, it didn't take long for the gentleman to ask her to read him any of the books, she automatically agreed, but she didn't know that the gentleman might like it, although virtually every title sounded like novels that would surely have to do with nonsense, as she called them.

The gentleman asked for a special title, she began to read and the man convinced that the girl was being very insensitive with her reading, and he commented: Every time you read, you must be feeling every word, that is what makes the books magical. 

But how would she feel anything she didn't believe in? Maybe she was being very rude with herself, but she didn't really believe in those things and nothing encouraged her.

Once she started reading again, she realized it wasn't close to being as horrible as she thought, beacause she automatically thought it would be a sea of honey, but it wasn't. 

The man inmediately asked her - Why don't you believe in love? -To what she said – Of course I believe, I love myself, my family and my friends, which I don't think is possible to have eternal love.

So the man mentioned - Have you ever thought about the possibility of opening your mind? I'm not saying you have to find a partner, but you may not think it's silly or refuse the fact that it exists. What made you think there's no such thing in the world?

To which she decided just to tell – Years ago my parents split up, I was only 5 years old, barely if I remember, for these 15 years it has taken me time to assimilate it because they think that I was trying to shrug it off, because that was problems of them and that don´t affect me, even at the moment,but of course they do. For years I've been living with them separately, I've seen them fight, it's like rolling along the life with out sense or hurtling down from the mountain.

The gentleman was impressed to hear all that and he didn't say a word. He was just thinking about what that girl might have been living for years, now he understood everything.  He was trying to give her words of motivation, but these just slipped out of his mouth.
