A woman in a red swimsuit was standing by the bar, ordering something from the waiter, with whom she was having a friendly conversation. I did register the woman, but basically I didn't pay attention to her. However, suddenly a waiter came to my table and put an iced coffee frappé on my table. He must have made a mistake, I thought, so I explained to him in English that I didn't order a frappe. However, he just smiled, showed me a kind of gesture from which I understood that the iced coffee really belonged to me. He then turned away to return to his bar and attend to other customers. However, his gesture was not enough for me. On the contrary, the waiter's actions made me bitter. I looked around awkwardly for an explanation. Why did the waiter bring me a drink I didn't order? Was it just a mistake or is there some ulterior motive behind it? What is it about? I wanted to find out, so I looked more closely at the waiter and my eyes also rested on the woman at the bar in a red swimsuit, who was already having fun with him again. And even if there were other customers, he focused primarily on her. He was nice to her and seemed especially polite. I wondered if maybe there wasn't something more between them than just a customer-waiter relationship. I then scrutinized the woman in the red swimsuit and was surprised to see how beautiful she really was. Her movements were graceful and while she selected her drink her eyes were laughing and her voice was soft and pleasant. Her appearance was a bit mysterious and really

attracted me. I understood why the waiter decided to dedicate himself to her and was the first to prepare the ordered drink. He certainly wanted to attract her with his gallantry and care. And the beautiful woman reciprocated his affection with her love. I realized that this situation is for me a kind of small mirror set into my soul. It showed me my distrust and a bit of superficiality towards others. I understood that I can never really know what is going on in other people's thoughts, what they feel in their hearts. I can never really know what motivates them and why they do the things they do. Therefore, it is important to be understanding and focused on others and approach them with respect and understanding. In this situation, I realized that I can't immediately judge people and jump to conclusions without learning more about them. The waiter, who didn't like me at first, surprised me with his kindness, and the woman in a red swimsuit, whom I didn't pay attention to at all, intrigued me with her beauty and mystery. Beauty is hidden inside each person, and only if we open up to other people and approach others without pretense and with love, can we experience a true resonance with them and understand their stories. This experience moved me, I decided to be more receptive and accommodating towards others. Only with sincerity is it possible to approach people and have understanding and respect for them. It's a valuable lesson that reminds me that each person I meet has their own experiences, desires and their own beauty that I must appreciate and respect. This is

the only way to get to know people and their stories. Conjuring beauty from everything that surrounds me. It is the way to friendship and harmony in our society.
I was checking something in my bag and I was bent over. When I finally straightened up, I noticed that a woman in a red bathing suit and a big smile was suddenly sitting across from me at my desk. She cheerfully addressed me in English asked how I was. I returned her greeting and gave her a casual smile as well. This was a signal for both of us that we are open to further conversation. However, her spontaneity was so surprising to me that I needed some time to recover and also to collect my thoughts. Since the woman was not Slovak, our entire subsequent conversation took place in English. The woman was very nice and polite, which made me happy. We started talking about our lives, our interests and our travel experiences. It was amazing when I found out that we both like the same destinations and we also both like exotic cuisine. Gradually we learned more about each other. Her name was Madelaine . Like me, she just visited Cyprus and really enjoyed her stay. She told me about the beauty of coastal towns, historical monuments and cultural traditions of Cyprus. She also liked Cypriot cuisine, especially souvlaki and compotes pickled in honey. As we discussed our interests, we discovered that we had many things in common. We both loved the outdoors and enjoyed spending time in the mountains and beaches. We shared experiences from our various vacations and recommended

each other the places we visited and described what charmed us about them. Our conversation was pleasant and rich in interesting topics. Madelaine was open and curious and I got on very well with her. I was excited to meet and have a very honest conversation. As our conversation ended, we exchanged contacts and promised to stay in touch and maybe meet again sometime in the future. At that moment, I realized that even such random meetings can bring new friends and extraordinary experiences. Our meeting brought us both joy and a cheerful mood. I was left with the feeling that the world is full of pleasant and interesting people with whom it is a pleasure to talk about your experiences. In conclusion, I must say that a pleasant meeting with an English woman from London convinced me of the importance of openness and friendliness in relationships with other people. With a smile on my face, I realized that the real value lies in the interactions with others that can bring pleasant experiences and new perspectives.
We sat in the restaurant for over two hours and really
understood each other very well. It was our first time together, when we were actually just getting to know each other. We talked about very pleasant to the cauldron, Fr tom, as a where we live, o to his family, friends, as well as to your work. Madelaine, my new friend, is divorced and has an adult daughter from of the first marriage. Her daughter recently moved to the USA because she decided to live in abroad. She liked life in of the city of New York,

and so she just settled there. Madelaine was sad that her daughter now lives far away. But on the other hand, she was so proud of her daughter's achievements that I was quite impressed with her personality. And if it ever happens in future possible, I would like to meet her daughter. Madelaine also told me about her ex-husband, Fr their life together, what kind of relationship they have now and why they decided to break up. However, despite their breakup, she did not mention negative things and she didn't even have a heart bitterness from broken relationship.
In principle, she stated briefly that it was about misunderstanding a about loss of interest. She was open to me and she trusted me, which I really appreciated. Then she started talking about her work, what she likes and where she likes to go.
I was surprised, but also I was pleased to find that we have quite a lot in common. We have been dating for a long time we learned about each other quite a lot. This helped us get to know each other better and gain a better understanding. But we successfully avoided unpleasant topics and focused on the positive aspects of our relationship and what makes us happy. I enjoyed listening to her and I was eager to share about your own feelings and life experience. It was nice of her to listen to me and she expressed her interest. Despite the fact that we met for the first time, we felt very good together. And it was clear to us that it would not be the last time that we have
