Sara Norte was on the program ‘Passadeira Vermelha’ this Tuesday, November 26th, together with Heitor Lourenço and Nuno Azinheira, commenting on the latest celebrity news.
At a certain point, and when they were talking about Ana Garcia Martins’ post, which shared a letter written by her late father, the commentator ‘opened her heart’.
Sara Norte remembered her mother, Carla Lupi, who died in 2012, and what she wrote to her in the letters she left her: “When I was in prison, my mother and grandmother wrote me a lot of letters and I kept them all and the letter that moves me the most whenever I go to see it is a letter I received after my mother died”he began by saying.
The commentator and actress explained that the letter contains “36 pages” and was a kind of “diary” for the mother during her last days of life: “I received a 36-page letter from my mother because my mother wrote a lot (…). The letter reached me after my mother had died (…). And this last letter that my mother sent me – I’m going to tell you because this is how things are – I keep it forever and one day I don’t know if I won’t publish it because it would even be a good tribute.”realized.
With tears in her eyes, Sara Norte then shared the importance of reading her mother’s words, explaining an excerpt that she will never forget.
“In the middle of the letter he said ‘look, I don’t have a dollar to eat, I’m starving, I can’t live’ and then it says ‘wait, they rang the doorbell’ and then he went back to the letter and said ‘you don’t know the miracle that just happened, the restaurant down here just came to offer me all the meals’…And then it was ‘now I’m going to the hospital’…”he remembered.
The commentator, finally, appealed to everyone to write letters to those they love most, also revealing that she has a giant bag full of letters that were written to her when she was imprisoned in Spain.
“And me reading this after she died (…) and I was receiving this after she died, it hurt a lot but nowadays I look at it as a struggling mother and these are the memories I want. It was a mother who failed a lot but because she was sick (…) and these letters are important to remember and I keep them even to heal the wounds that my mother did to me and that I know I also did to her and it is very beautiful. It’s these little things that remain (…). “he reflected.
