Have you ever have a good anecdote? A anecdote is a particular or detached incident or fact of an interesting nature that had happen to you. Today I will tell you a anecdote that happen to my grandmother. I know taht anecdotes are about you, but sometimes have to be about your personal life. And I think my grandmother is in my personal life. I adore her with all my heart.
Well as you know the times had change. At the times of the grandmas they married at 17 years old. In my opinion I think they were crazy. But well it where another times. So my anecdote is a story that happen two my grandma. Really I will talk about two anecdotes of my grandma that i really love, and you know that we have favorites stories about the grandmas. When they are crossing the 60´s you know that they start to tell stories about his life.
The first anecdote is that when my grandma was in a sweet 15 party she was dancing with all his friends, his party was from a good friend of hers. So he was talking and dancing when she step in something at the floor, so she look down and see something wear. She take it and sees that is was a ( Cruz). It was a presures cruz. It have gold and a another thing that I can not remember right know. Are tha kind of material that just grandmothers knows. So when she take it and sees how beautiful was she start to ask to wveryone if that cruz was from someone. She ask like about 2 hoursand no one tell him that was property of someone. So she grab the cruz and put her in his purse. Well she uses that cruz every time she have travel. She put it in his bag and she lives the cruz in that bag for all the trip. She do thta because she thinks that these cruz make her lucky and also that protects her. I really can tell you how much my grandma have travel, She lost the count. And sometimes the aereolines lost your baggage and my grandma have been one of them. But she never lost the baggage where is the cruz. So years later she meet my grandpa and they married. When they where packing for one of his thouthands trips in his life, my granfather look that cruz and ask my grandmother were had she take it or buy it. And my grandmother start to tell him that she found that in the party. So my grandfather interrup her and tell her - You found that in the partie of Alvaro Arzu in the dancing floor and the cruz have gold and have the initials of A.C.S- And my grandmother was shock. so my grandfather tell her – Let me tell you that this cruz is mine, I lost thst in the party of Alvaro Arzu, and have that initials because my name: Arturo cordero saravia. And my grandmother was shock. But how could be the world that you found something and years later that thing was something that your housband lost in a party when he was young. I think this in a great anecdote. i think it is sweet.
I will tell you the second anecdote that is also about my grandmother. She married when she was 17 years old. She could not have babies, she try and try and she could not have babies. So she try to have like 3 years and then she realize that she really could not have children. So the mother of his housband pray a lot to San judas Tadeo. So she tell her to my grandmother that try to pray to San Judas Tadeo and my grandmother thinks that it will be useless to do something like that because she have been trying to have babies 3 years, so she dosent do anything. But the mother of his housband tell her so much and su much that my grandmother was arta that his suegra tells her to pray to that person. So my grandmother pray to San Judas Tadeo and surprice surprice my grandmother was pregnant. And guess what that babie that my grandmother had was my dad and guess what? My dad was born the same day as San Judas Tadeo day. Is that not sweet?
Well my grandmother had another boy. But then she whants a girl and start trying and she could not have babies again. until she have one but she lost the babie. So she stop and wait like 10 years. When she start to try to have babies she could not have, and it for two years. So his mother tell her that pray to the La virgen the Lourdes. So my grandmother follow his advise. And BOOM!! my grandmother was pregnant, so my aunt is calles ana lucrecia de lourdes. I think that god makes us things that we really apreciate. And my grandmother one moth a year, she receives the big photo (cuadro ) of the persons that are debatas a la Virgen the Lourdes.
