An elderly Hispanic lady shared a story with a man at a bus stop about her son's upcoming wedding to his high school sweetheart. She told the man that love is not simply found, but built, like how indigenous people in Latin America would find a good location and build settlements, rather than stumble upon perfectly constructed cities. Her words about looking for a clearing to build something stuck with the man for years to come.

an elderly person has told you that has significantly changed your views in life? Discussion Met an elderly hispanic lady at a bus stop in Albuquerque. We went back and forth in Spanish for a bit (I'm a white guy so she was pleasantly sur- prised) and she told me about her travel plans to go to her son's wedding--a real cute story involving him and his high school sweetheart finding each other after a long time being broken up. Thad recently been dumped, and said something a bit mopey like "I wish I could find love like that someday." She smiled, shook her head and said "Chico, love like that isn't just found. It's built. How many perfect, decorated temples do you think my ancestors stumbled across in Tikal or Tenochtitlan? No. They found a good, level spot, maybe some water nearby, and said 'Here, We can build something here.' Look for a clearing in the forest, young man. Not a hidden city." That one will stick with me for years. #witchcraft #witch #askreddit #whats
