Wise words. Brad Pitt about his Lady:
“My girl got sick. She was constantly nervous because of problems at work, personal life, her failures and children. She lost 30 pounds and weighed about 90 pounds. She got very skinny and was constantly crying. She was not a happy woman. She had suffered from continuing headaches, heart pain and jammed nerves in her back and ribs. She did not sleep well, falling asleep only in the mornings and got tired very quickly during the day. Our relationship was on the verge of a break up. Her beauty was leaving her somehow. She had bags under her eyes, she was poking her head forward, and she stopped taking care of herself. She refused to shoot the films and rejected any role. I lost hope and thought that we’d become separated soon… But then I decided to act. After all I’ve got the MOST Beautiful Woman on earth, both to look at and in who she is. She is the idol of more than half of men and women on earth, and I was the one allowed to fall asleep next to her and to hug her. I began to shower her with flowers, kisses and compliments. I surprised and pleased her every minute. I gave her a lot of gifts and lived just for her. I spoke in public only about her. I incorporated all themes in her direction. I praised her in front of her own friends, my friends and our mutual friends. You won’t believe it but she blossomed. She became better. She gained weight, was no longer nervous and loved me even more than ever. I had no clue that she CAN love that much.
And then I realized one thing: the woman is the reflection of her man.
If you love her to the point of madness, she will become it.”
-Brad Pitt
When I read this post that I found on Facebook, it made me cry. It still makes me cry to read it. I have since learned that apparently these words may not have been said and these things may not have been done by Brad Pitt, however, it doesn’t matter if they weren’t – the lesson in the story remains the same. The story provides an example of a man who truly knows how to love and support his wife, and to be a good husband. Men everywhere should look to this and learn.
