A toast to Love
Oriza Martins
The
fondness and kindness of Princess Diana fascinated the world, but it
was mainly her beauty that conquered the cheering for her happiness
with Prince Charles of England. Almost
nobody cheered for ugly Camilla. Often
I heard some people say:
- What nonsense! Changing
such a beautiful woman for another, so ugly!
But let's look from another
angle: Camilla was loved by Charles before Diana enters the fray. And
by the way, she was loved with capital "L", since adolescence.
People still consider standards of beauty a great merit to build
happiness and, in these circumstances, it seems that few people
remember the role of LOVE ...
Prince Charles has always lived
surrounded by luxury and beauty. How
can a love resist so long and so many temptations?
The news
that were in the press some time ago, related that Charles took a
stack of eight books to read on the honeymoon with Diana and also a
picture of Camilla inside one. It leads us to a sympathetic feeling
of respect to the pain of Diana, but brings us this amazing feeling
called LOVE as well. Despite his obligation to marry according to
the official parameter and ensure the continuation of the line of
heirs to the British throne, the prince's heart remained true to his
feelings for Camilla.
From this perspective, the history of Camilla and
Charles are moving.
Camilla means a female icon of redemption, a symbol of ordinary
woman: the certainty that it is not essential to fit into patterns
of beauty in order to attain happiness.
Vinicius de Moraes, a brazilian
poet, said: "The ugly women forgive me, but beauty is essential".
Vinicius forgive me, but beauty
is not essential...
Today, Charles and Camilla enjoy
their happiness even without the splendors of youth ...
By the way... Aging
is a right, despite of appearance. It
is part of life.
And be happy too!
