The son:
“Mom, look at this woman! She’s exactly the kind of woman I want to marry! She’s gorgeous!
The mother (smiling softly):
My son, I understand that you are attracted to her beauty, but let me give you a piece of advice: beauty alone is not enough to build a life as a couple.
The son (intrigued):
Why, Mom? A beautiful woman like her would make me so happy.
The mother (serious but caring):
My son, a woman may be beautiful in the eyes of all, but true beauty, the one that lasts, is found in her heart and in her character. Look for a woman who will respect you, who will know how to accompany you in the trials of life and who will support you in your dreams.
The son (thinking):
But mom, if she’s pretty and has a good character, why not?
The mother (with a knowing smile):
Of course, it is possible, my son. But remember that the ideal woman is not the one who attracts everyone’s attention, but the one who devotes herself to you, who will make you grow, and who will bring you peace. Do not trust only appearances, because they fade with time. Look for the one who will make your soul happy, not just your eyes.
The son (smiling shyly):
I think I understand, Mom. Thanks for your advice… I’ll think more before making a choice.
The mother (placing her hand on his shoulder):
Take your time, my son. True love is often found where you least expect it. And above all, choose the one who will make you a better man.
Moral :
Don’t judge by appearances alone, because the true value of a person is found in their heart, their character and their ability to accompany you through the ups and downs of life”.
