I am heartbroken this time just because of the novel that I have read, so I want to share it here for you get broken too charr, just joking I just want to share it because it depicts about the reality of worldly love. By the way, story is in titled Marienela by Benito Perez Galdos.

________________________

It was about a girl named Nela, nickname for Marienela who is unlucky in terms of physical beauty. She secretly love Pablo, a blind man whom she always with no matter how other people mock her because of her appearance. Nela serves as the eyes of Pablo, she always describe all the things around, even how the clouds, flowers and trees, and how everything looks like. Pablo also said that Nela is a very beautiful base on her lovely voice and personality, although Nela already told him that she is not.

One day, there is an eye surgeon, Teodoro Golfín, who visit in their place for business purposes, and it happened that they lost their direction to mining site, and it was Pablo who help them. Pablo said that he is blind, but he memorized the direction to their mining site, so he told them the direction until finally they arrived and met the wealthy man, Mr Francisco.

Mr. Francisco is Pablo's father and since he know that Mr Golfin is an eye surgeon, he request if he can check his son if there is a chance that his eyes can be cured.

Fast forward...

Pablo told Nela that he is going to undergo operation, and that he will marry her after it. But Nela get sad and worried for this news. For her, she will became useless if Pablo gain his sight and also worried that Pablo can see how she looks. One day, since Nela is an orphan working in Pablo's family, she heard that Mr. Fransciso plans for Pablo to marry Florentina, a kind and very beautiful woman. Nela get hurt because she is nothing compare to Florentina, what she did is to run away and not to show herself to Pablo again.

The operation is done and it was successful, Pablo gain his sight and he see how beautiful everything is. He saw Florentina, and feel in love with her beauty, at first he thought that it was Nela but Frentina said that she's not Nela, yet Pablo don't care anymore and asked for marriage. On the other side, Nela commit suicide but luckily save by Dr. Golfin, she confess why she did it and ask to help her hide from Pablo. Dr. Golfin bring Nela to Florentina's room for her to take a rest, but then Pablo came in asking if Florentina is there, as he don't want to lose Florentina on his sight. He accidentally saw Nela, and thought that she is just a girl whom Florentina helped from the street.

Nela, being too much broken tell everything to Pablo about who she really is. Pablo get shocked and speechless, because of his reaction Nela take his hand and kiss it three times before she fell down and die.


I thought I will get a happy ending in this story, yet I'm broken for Nela's ending. Imagine that she died with sorrow. As what she said, "Everyone has something to cry for".

I hope that we will not be like Pablo who only care of Physical Beauty. Inner is much important, but remember that you're God's creation, and He make everyone of us beautiful in our own. What we need to do is to believe that we are, embrace and flex your own self.

I thought it was a happy story. But so sad that there is no forever in this story. I definitely agree that there is something or someone we can cry for and no matter if it is alive or lifeless, the "cry" there is meant for something good or bad, and the story is something unexpected, something bad. There is always a reason for every tear but no matter how hopeless and sorrowful it is, still life goes on. The story can always relate to a true to life situation, which is sad. Laban pa rin ... whatever happens..

character is what matters most, especially if one person wants to settle. I feel sad for Nela, as she drowned herself in negative thoughts before even trying to be with Pablo to see if he would accept her.

I thought Nela was saved by Dr. Golfin? Na-deads pa din talaga siya. At the end, mas inalala niya parin si Pablo..

Anyways, talking about Physical Beauty, hindi naman sa nilalahat ko ha, pero mostly kasi ngayon, yun na ang basehan. Yung tipong, mas malaki yung binibigay na percent for physical aspects kaysa sa inner beauty.

Physical beauty will only fade but the real content of our hearts will never fade. I wish everyone will not based on the outer appearance @Ling01

Sis Renren is right hahah, since it's just an expression, we use it in different purposes. For example when we say a joke, "I like him! Charr just joking " hahha just like that.

I thought Pablo would recognise his feelings for Nela as soon as he saw her in Florentina's room but it didn't turn our that way . The ending was unfortunate.

This story is very moving, because physically someone can be left behind. maybe we should know true love from the heart and sincerity.

Yes, this is what we should prioritize, but in reality it's difficult to achieve. Most people prefer beauty in the outside.
