The Story of Uncle Eulalio
It was then that the trees started talking to us.
Surprising when Uncle Eulalio related, stories never believed and unusual, they always had their stories that made children, youth and adults enjoy sitting around him. I witnessed those stories, recounted them in such a natural way that they were believed. Never forget that time, he imitated animals and made sounds that were so beautiful childhood and the memory as if it were yesterday, I was sitting very close to him and fear took hold of me but he did not stop me from listening to the stories. Uncle Eulalio was an old man, he was almost 100 years old, he had a lot of wisdom, One of the listeners, who was old just like him, they told him, must fulfill these stories the causes of fear of children and do not let them sleep Calm down-, and the uncle said:
"You're right," replied the old man, his tone serious. "It will all be over tonight".
He felt a great pain for those words that the man said to him, that the following night he did not make any stories, the children claimed the stories, he became ignorant, sadness annihilated him, the stories encouraged him to continue living, he was already part of his lifestyle, he never thought that his friend and compadre would treat him so badly in front of the children and the public present. Sitting in an armchair and the children around him, they asked him to please tell stories, the mood did not accompany him. Tears welled up in his eyes, pain filled him, a girl approached him and pulled:
A red scarf
I dry him, the tears and whisper in his ear, be brave uncle there is no reason to be sad, life continues, you are an example to follow, we all love you, and I do not want that misunderstanding to affect you, you are the best uncle in the world and when you are not there we will remember you with your stories. So each of the children who listened to the uncle's stories gave him words of thanks and comfort. Weeks passed and the uncle did not tell stories again, unfortunately Eulalio uncle died of sadness.
