Am 70 de ani \u0219i nu am copii. Dar, v\u0103 rog, nu m\u0103 comp\u0103timi\u021bi. Dimpotriv\u0103, sunt cu adev\u0103rat fericit\u0103. Nu mi-am schimbat libertatea pe scutece, biberoane \u0219i nop\u021bi nedormite cu bebelu\u0219i care pl\u00e2ng. \u0218i \u0219ti\u021bi ceva? A fost una dintre cele mai bune decizii din via\u021ba mea. \u00cenc\u0103 m\u0103 uime\u0219te de ce pe unii prieteni \u0219i rude \u00eei deranjeaz\u0103 at\u00e2t de mult \u2014 ca \u0219i cum a\u0219 fi \u00eenc\u0103lcat ni\u0219te \u201ereguli\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vre\u021bi s\u0103 afla\u021bi mai multe? Arunca\u021bi o privire \u00een comentarii \u2014 acolo am povestit tot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o zi am mers la o consulta\u021bie la dermatolog. Cum se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 adesea \u00een clinicile de stat \u2014 coad\u0103, \u00eent\u00e2rzieri, agita\u021bie\u2026 M-am a\u0219ezat pe un scaun pe coridor, preg\u0103tit\u0103 pentru o a\u0219teptare lung\u0103. \u00cen fa\u021ba mea st\u0103tea o femeie a c\u0103rei apari\u021bie mi-a atras imediat privirea. Era ceva special \u00een felul \u00een care ar\u0103ta: o \u021binut\u0103 dreapt\u0103 \u0219i demn\u0103, o coafur\u0103 impecabil\u0103, un parfum discret \u0219i scump, un e\u0219arf elegant legat lejer la g\u00e2t. P\u0103rea o eroin\u0103 dintr-un film vechi \u2014 rafinat\u0103 \u0219i distins\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
P\u0103rea c\u0103 are \u00een jur de 65 de ani. Dar c\u00e2nd am \u00eenceput s\u0103 vorbim, am r\u0103mas uimit\u0103 \u2014 avea deja peste 70! Ochii \u00eei str\u0103luceau de via\u021b\u0103, vocea era sigur\u0103 pe ea, iar vorba \u2014 \u00een\u021beleapt\u0103 \u0219i lini\u0219tit\u0103. Povestea ei\u2026 m-a atins ad\u00e2nc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mi-a spus c\u0103 fusese c\u0103s\u0103torit\u0103 de dou\u0103 ori. Primul so\u021b a fost iubirea ei din studen\u021bie. Erau tineri, ambi\u021bio\u0219i, locuiau \u00eempreun\u0103 \u00eentr-o garsonier\u0103 mic\u0103, beau cafea solubil\u0103 diminea\u021ba \u0219i visau s\u0103 cucereasc\u0103 lumea. \u00cenc\u0103 de la \u00eenceput i-a spus deschis c\u0103 nu \u00ee\u0219i dore\u0219te copii. Nu ura copiii, deloc \u2014 pur \u0219i simplu nu sim\u021bise niciodat\u0103 nevoia s\u0103 fie mam\u0103. Avea alte aspira\u021bii: c\u0103l\u0103torii, c\u0103r\u021bi, libertate, carier\u0103, creativitate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El p\u0103rea c\u0103 accept\u0103. Dar, c\u00e2nd ea a \u00eemplinit 30 de ani, ceva s-a schimbat \u00een el. A \u00eenceput s\u0103 \u00eei spun\u0103 tot mai des: \u201eO s\u0103 te r\u0103zg\u00e2nde\u0219ti\u2026 Nu-i a\u0219a?\u201d Sperase c\u0103 instinctul matern se va trezi cu timpul. Dar acest lucru nu s-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat. Dup\u0103 multe discu\u021bii dureroase, s-au desp\u0103r\u021bit. F\u0103r\u0103 scandal, dar cu am\u0103r\u0103ciune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Al doilea mariaj a venit mult mai t\u00e2rziu. Nu mai c\u0103uta iubirea, doar \u00ee\u0219i tr\u0103ia via\u021ba. \u0218i atunci a ap\u0103rut El. Un b\u0103rbat matur, cu un trecut, cu o fiic\u0103 din prima c\u0103s\u0103torie. Nu a \u00eentrebat-o niciodat\u0103 despre copii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Era calm, de \u00eencredere \u0219i o accepta a\u0219a cum era. Via\u021ba lor era pl\u0103cut\u0103. Seri cu vin, c\u0103l\u0103torii la mare, plimb\u0103ri prin parcuri\u2026 Dar fericirea nu a durat mult \u2014 el a murit \u00een somn, \u00een urma unui atac de cord. A fost lini\u0219tit \u0219i nea\u0219teptat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De atunci tr\u0103ie\u0219te singur\u0103. \u00centr-o cas\u0103 mare \u0219i luminoas\u0103, \u00eenconjurat\u0103 de flori pe care le \u00eengrije\u0219te singur\u0103. \u201eNu m\u0103 simt singur\u0103\u201d, mi-a spus, privindu-m\u0103 drept \u00een ochi. \u201eAm prietene, am muzica mea preferat\u0103, c\u0103r\u021bi, fotografii vechi, c\u0103l\u0103torii \u0219i plantele mele. Uneori, lini\u0219tea este cel mai bun interlocutor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am \u00eentrebat-o dac\u0103 regret\u0103 c\u0103 nu a avut copii. A z\u00e2mbit. \u201eNu. Nici m\u0103car o secund\u0103. Oamenii cred c\u0103 copiii sunt o asigurare \u00eempotriva singur\u0103t\u0103\u021bii. Dar copiii cresc, pleac\u0103, \u00ee\u0219i fac propriile familii, iar tu r\u0103m\u00e2i undeva \u00een plan secund. Este normal. Este via\u021ba. Dar eu nu am vrut aceast\u0103 leg\u0103tur\u0103.\u201d A luat o gur\u0103 de ap\u0103 \u0219i a ad\u0103ugat cu o u\u0219oar\u0103 ironie: \u201e\u0218i un pahar de ap\u0103 la b\u0103tr\u00e2ne\u021be mi-l poate da oricine \u2014 at\u00e2ta timp c\u00e2t pl\u0103tesc pentru asta.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M-a impresionat curajul ei \u2014 s\u0103 tr\u0103iasc\u0103 a\u0219a cum vrea \u0219i s\u0103 nu se conformeze a\u0219tept\u0103rilor altora. Este o raritate. Nu este o victim\u0103 a singur\u0103t\u0103\u021bii. Este st\u0103p\u00e2na ei. \u00cencrez\u0103toare, independent\u0103, cu o privire limpede \u0219i o pozi\u021bie ferm\u0103. Pu\u021bine femei sunt a\u0219a. Dar ele exist\u0103. \u0218i cu ele ai vrea s\u0103 vorbe\u0219ti ore \u00een \u0219ir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acea \u00eent\u00e2lnire a schimbat ceva \u00een mine. De multe ori judec\u0103m oamenii dup\u0103 tipare: \u201efamilie\u201d, \u201ecopii\u201d, \u201esucces\u201d. Dar adev\u0103rata fericire este s\u0103 tr\u0103ie\u0219ti \u00een armonie cu tine \u00eensu\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Voi a\u021bi \u00eent\u00e2lnit vreodat\u0103 pe cineva care a mers \u00eempotriva \u201enormelor\u201d acceptate \u2014 \u0219i nu a regretat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
