My name is Wang Xue, I am 58 years old and retired. My life should be considered a complete life in the eyes of many people, with a stable job, a house that is not too small, and a husband who was once loving. However, fate always catches people off guard.
My husband passed away when I was 42 years old, and I was just entering middle age. After I was widowed, I was immersed in grief and felt that life had lost its color for a while. But time will heal everything, and slowly, I began to readjust myself and try to face life.
I have a son named Xiao Ming, who is now an adult. He is the greatest pride of my life and my greatest concern. Xiao Ming works in Shanghai and can only come back to see me once or twice a year. Although we are far apart, I know that he has always been thinking about me and praying for me.
My son's concern doesn't fill the void in my heart. After I retired, I began to find a new meaning in life. My friends have advised me to do more social activities or go on a blind date to find a new partner. But I've always felt that love isn't something that can be found casually, and what I need is a sincere relationship, not a relationship that is barely made up to fill the loneliness.
However, I also understand that a person's life is always lonely. So, I started trying to participate in some community events and meet some new people. During a volunteer activity, I met an elderly man named Zhang Hua. Zhang Hua, like me, was a widow whose wife left him a few years ago due to illness. We had a good conversation, had similar experiences, and had a tacit understanding of each other.
Gradually, Zhang Hua and I became good friends. We often go for walks, drink tea, and talk about the ups and downs of life. One day, I couldn't help but confide my heart to Zhang Hua, I told him that I am no longer young, but I still hope to find someone who understands me and can accompany me for the rest of my life.
Zhang Hua was silent for a while, and then said softly, "Aunt Wang, I understand your feelings. In fact, I am also looking for someone to accompany me until I grow old. ”
Hearing his words, my heart moved, as if a glimmer of hope bloomed in the desert of life. I asked him, "So what do you want from a partner?" ”
Zhang Hua smiled and said, "I think the most important thing is to treat each other sincerely and tolerate each other. As for the rest, I don't think it matters, as long as we are together and happy with each other. ”
When I listened to him, my heart suddenly became much clearer. Perhaps, love is not as complicated as I imagined, perhaps, true happiness is all around me, but I have never found it.
We continued to be friends, but we both knew in our hearts that we had developed deeper feelings for each other. I began to look forward to the day when I would spend the rest of my life with Zhang Hua, and although I don't know when that day will be, I believe that it will come.
My relationship with Zhang Hua has gradually deepened, and our exchanges have become more and more frequent. Sometimes, we would go for a walk in the park together and enjoy the afternoon sun; Sometimes, we cook together and taste each other's own food. This intimacy made me feel extremely happy, and I began to look forward to having a home and someone to rely on.
One day, I went to watch a movie with Zhang Hua, and on the way home, I suddenly stopped, looked at him and said, "Zhang Hua, is the relationship between us beyond the scope of friends?" ”
Zhang Hua stopped, looked at me seriously, and said with a smile: "Aunt Wang, I have always felt that the relationship between us is very special. I'd love to be with you if you want. ”
Hearing his words, my heart was filled with emotion and joy, and I knew that I had found the person I was looking for. I nodded lightly and said with a smile, "I'd love to be with you too, Zhang Hua." ”
From that day on, we officially became a couple. We rented a cottage and started our life together. Every morning, I would make a hearty breakfast for Zhang Hua, and then we would go for a walk in the park together and enjoy the early morning sun. In the evening, we would cook dinner together and talk about each other's hearts and spend a warm evening.
Although there is a slight age gap between us, we share common hobbies and ideals. We love to read books, listen to music, and occasionally travel together to explore the unknown. With him by my side, I feel that life is full of hope and vitality.
However, just as we begin to enjoy each other's company, an accident shatters our peaceful lives. One day, Zhang Hua suddenly felt unwell, and I rushed him to the hospital. After a series of examinations, the doctor told us that Zhang Hua had cancer and that it was terminal.
When I heard the news, I felt like a knife in my heart, and tears flowed uncontrollably. Zhang Hua looked at me, held my hand, smiled and said, "Aunt Wang, don't be sad. There will always be ups and downs in life, and the important thing is that we have had each other. ”
I looked up at him, tears blurring my vision, and I knew I couldn't leave him alone to face it all. I decided to stay with him and I would be there for him no matter what happened.
In the days that followed, Zhang Hua and I went through many difficult moments together. His body grew weaker and weaker, but he never lost his courage and strength. Whenever he felt pain, I would hold his hand tightly and sing softly to him, hoping to give him some comfort.
Finally, Zhang Hua passed away early in the morning, he closed his eyes, smiled and left me quietly. I hugged his body and tears poured down my face, but I knew that he was no longer in pain, that he had found peace for him.
In the days after he left, I felt extremely lost and lonely. Every night, I would sit alone in the house, silently thinking about him. I knew that I could never find a replacement for him, who was the most important person in my life.
However, life still has to go on, and I can't let myself dwell on my grief. I decided to continue living my life and use my actions to honor him and let him see me happy in heaven. I believe that one day, I will meet my own happiness again.
After a period of self-adjustment, I slowly moved out of my grief and re-examined my life. I realized that although Zhang Hua had left me, he had left me a precious treasure - a love of life and the pursuit of happiness.
So, I renew
It gives me a sense of inner satisfaction and pleasure. I participated in some volunteer activities in nursing homes, chatting and singing with lonely elderly people, and watching their satisfied smiles, I felt that my life was full of meaning.
In the process, I got to know a young lady named Li Ting. She is a nurse in a nursing home, young and energetic. Every time I see her taking good care of the elderly, I feel very admired.
One day, Li Ting and I were doing handicrafts for the old people, and we chatted and laughed, as if we had been friends for many years. Suddenly, Li Ting stopped what she was doing, looked at me and said, "Aunt Wang, you are really a kind and warm person, I admire you very much." ”
I smiled and shook my head and said, "Actually, I was also influenced by Zhang Hua, who taught me how to care for others. ”
Li Ting nodded and said, "You and Uncle Zhang must be a very happy couple. ”
I smiled and shook my head and said, "We're just good friends and he's gone for me." ”
Li Ting showed a surprised expression and said, "Really? I thought you were a couple. ”
I smiled and said, "Life is sometimes full of accidents and uncertainties. ”
Li Ting seemed to understand my words, she patted my hand lightly, and said, "Aunt Wang, don't be sad, I believe you will find your own happiness." ”
Hearing her words, I felt a warm current welling up in my heart, and I knew that no matter what happened, I would never stop looking for my own happiness.
Li Ting's words gave me a little comfort, and I decided not to dwell on the sadness of the past, but to face the future positively. Li Ting and I have become good friends, and we often participate in volunteer activities together and share each other's lives.
During a volunteer activity, I met a young man named Wang Qiang. He is a university student and is passionate about social welfare. We had a great conversation and he told me that he wanted to be a counselor to help people with psychological distress.
In my communication with Wang Qiang, I found that I was very pleased with his maturity and understanding. He gave me a lot of advice and helped me to re-examine my life and find my own happiness.
One day, Li Ting and I went to see Wang Qiang's psychological counseling course, and after the course, I expressed my gratitude to Wang Qiang. He smiled and said, "Aunt Wang, you are too polite. I'm just doing my part. ”
I smiled and said, "Anyway, I have to thank you because you have helped me a lot." ”
Wang Qiang patted me lightly on the shoulder and said, "Aunt Wang, you are a very strong person, I believe you will definitely find your own happiness." ”
I was very touched to hear his words, and I knew that no matter what happened, I would persevere until I found my happiness.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, months have passed. Li Ting and Wang Qiang and I have always maintained a good relationship, and we often participate in various activities together and have a good time.
One day, I received a letter from Xiao Ming, he told me that he was getting married, and his fiancée was called Xiao Fang, a gentle and kind girl. He invited me to their wedding, and I was very happy because I knew that Xiao Ming had found his happiness.
At Ben's wedding, I met many familiar faces, his colleagues, friends, and family. I feel very relieved because I know that Xiao Ming already has a family of his own, and his future will be even brighter.
At the wedding, Xiao Ming and I hugged each other affectionately, and he told me, "Mom, thank you for your continued support and love for me. I will treat Xiaofang well and let her live a happy life. ”
I was relieved to hear what he said, and I knew that all my efforts had been worth it. I wish Xiao Ming and Xiao Fang and hope that they will be happy forever.
The evening after the wedding, I returned home alone. I sat quietly on the couch and reflected on what I had been through. I feel extremely emotional, because I know that life is a journey, full of uncertainties and challenges, but as long as we face it bravely, we will definitely find our own happiness.
