Cu pa\u0219ii grei \u0219i copiii obosi\u021bi, Magdalena a ajuns \u00een fa\u021ba unei biserici vechi. U\u0219a de lemn sc\u00e2r\u021b\u00e2ia la fiecare adiere, iar lumina palid\u0103 a unei lum\u00e2n\u0103ri aprinse de cineva dinainte \u00eei atrase privirea. A intrat, iar copiii, speria\u021bi \u0219i fl\u0103m\u00e2nzi, s-au str\u00e2ns la pieptul ei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Preotul, un b\u0103tr\u00e2n cu p\u0103rul alb \u0219i ochi bl\u00e2nzi, i-a v\u0103zut \u0219i f\u0103r\u0103 s\u0103 \u00eentrebe prea multe le-a oferit un col\u021b unde s\u0103 se odihneasc\u0103. Le-a adus p\u00e2ine uscat\u0103 \u0219i ap\u0103. Pentru Magdalena, acel gest a fost \u00eenceputul unei noi vie\u021bi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diminea\u021ba, a pornit \u00eempreun\u0103 cu cei mici spre satul unde copil\u0103rise. Drumul era lung, dar \u00een inima ei \u00eencol\u021bea speran\u021ba. La marginea satului, acolo unde paji\u0219tea mirosea a f\u00e2n proasp\u0103t cosit \u0219i unde uli\u021bele erau str\u00e2mte, a g\u0103sit vechea cas\u0103 a mamei. Pere\u021bii erau cr\u0103pa\u021bi, iar acoperi\u0219ul st\u0103tea s\u0103 cad\u0103, dar pentru ea era un ad\u0103post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A ridicat din nimic un c\u0103min. Cu m\u00e2inile ei a reparat acoperi\u0219ul, a v\u0103ruit pere\u021bii \u0219i a s\u0103dit flori la poart\u0103. Copiii o ajutau cum puteau: Camila aduna ap\u0103 de la f\u00e2nt\u00e2n\u0103, Luisito t\u0103ia lemne, Ana Lucia \u00eengrijea gr\u0103dini\u021ba de zarzavaturi. \u00cencet, din ruine, au cl\u0103dit o via\u021b\u0103 demn\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anii au trecut. Magdalena \u0219i-a crescut copiii cu munc\u0103 cinstit\u0103 \u0219i cu fric\u0103 de Dumnezeu. \u00cei \u00eenv\u0103\u021ba s\u0103 nu judece, s\u0103 nu-\u0219i piard\u0103 omenia \u0219i s\u0103 cread\u0103 \u00een iertare. \u00cen zilele de s\u0103rb\u0103toare, casa lor se umplea de c\u00e2ntece populare, de miros de cozonac \u0219i sarmale, iar copiii r\u00e2deau cu poft\u0103 \u00een timp ce b\u0103teau toba improvizat\u0103 dintr-un lighean vechi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centre timp, Ernesto c\u0103zuse \u00een propria groap\u0103. Afacerile lui s-au pr\u0103bu\u0219it, prietenii de pahar au disp\u0103rut, iar femeile care \u00eel lingu\u0219iser\u0103 l-au l\u0103sat balt\u0103. A r\u0103mas singur, cu haine scumpe dar ponosite \u0219i cu inima goal\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00centr-o iarn\u0103 geroas\u0103, cu z\u0103pada p\u00e2n\u0103 la genunchi, Ernesto s-a \u00eentors \u00een sat. Tremura \u0219i b\u0103tea din din\u021bi. A deschis poarta casei \u00een care odinioar\u0103 nu voise s\u0103 mai intre Magdalena. \u00cen prag l-a g\u0103sit pe Luisito, acum fl\u0103c\u0103u \u00eenalt \u0219i puternic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Cine sunte\u021bi? a \u00eentrebat b\u0103iatul cu o privire rece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ernesto a \u00eengenuncheat. Lacrimile \u00eei \u0219iroiau pe obraji.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Sunt tat\u0103l t\u0103u\u2026 Iart\u0103-m\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dar copiii nu-l recuno\u0219teau. \u00cen ochii lor, tat\u0103l fusese doar un str\u0103in care \u00eei aruncase \u00een strad\u0103. Magdalena a ie\u0219it \u00een curte. Nu mai era femeia timid\u0103 \u0219i \u00eenfr\u00e2nt\u0103 de alt\u0103dat\u0103, ci o mam\u0103 puternic\u0103, cu privirea senin\u0103 \u0219i demn\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Ai ales drumul t\u0103u, Ernesto. Noi am ales altul. Aici nu mai e loc pentru m\u00e2ndrie \u0219i venin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El a plecat, pr\u0103bu\u0219indu-se \u00een z\u0103pad\u0103, \u00een timp ce glasurile copiilor r\u0103sunau \u00een cas\u0103, c\u00e2nt\u00e2nd colinde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00cen acea sear\u0103, Magdalena \u0219i-a str\u00e2ns familia la mas\u0103. \u00cen mijlocul mesei st\u0103tea o lum\u00e2nare aprins\u0103, semn al credin\u021bei c\u0103 binele \u0219i curajul pot rena\u0219te chiar \u0219i din ruine. \u0218i atunci a \u00een\u021beles c\u0103 adev\u0103rata avere nu fusese niciodat\u0103 palatul din ora\u0219, ci acei cinci copii \u0219i dragostea lor neclintit\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Astfel, povestea ei a r\u0103mas ca o pild\u0103 \u00een sat: c\u0103 oric\u00e2t de grea ar fi furtuna, demnitatea \u0219i iubirea de mam\u0103 pot recl\u0103di o lume \u00eentreag\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
