This summer, I was walking along the beach in Barcelona, enjoying the sound of the waves and the golden sand under my feet. In the distance, I noticed a guy diligently drawing something in the sand. Curiosity got the better of me, and I came closer. A touching scene opened up before me: in huge letters on the sand was the inscription: Will you marry me? Next to him stood a girl, clearly confused, but with shining eyes. She turned to me and suddenly asked: Do you think I should agree? This question caught me off guard, but her smile gave away the answer even before it was voiced. We both laughed, and the next moment she screamed her loud and confident Yes! so much so that even the surfers on the horizon turned around. I was just a passerby, a casual witness to their moment of happiness, but this scene remained forever in my heart. They hugged each other as if the whole world had disappeared, and I felt the warmth of their love spreading in the air. Now, remembering this moment, I always smile. After all, it doesn’t matter how grand or modest the gesture was. What matters is that it came from an excess of feelings, from a sincere desire to be close to the one you love, no matter what. The inscription in the sand will disappear, but their happiness and this Yes! will remain with them forever.
