“Of everything that will happen to us in life, death is the only thing we have,” he said (Cádiz, 55 years) this Wednesday, February 26 in El Hormiguero. The humorist’s duel has been collected in two books: The humor of my life y Madre! (HarperCollins). The first has a theatrical adaptation and talks about death after the loss of her mother and her husband in a few months; The second, about the life lessons of his father, who died a few months before his partner. Recently, he has lived another death, that of his brother Luis, known as The trumpetat 57.
“It is a love story, accompaniment and acceptance of duel. I use humor to talk about serious things. It cost me to do it again[la obra de teatro] After my brother’s death. Office shooting, not with heart. The work is not mine, it is for the one who sits before, the one who is afraid of death and does not know how to face it, ”said Padilla. The humorist insisted that her mission is to help, that it is an instrument and that when you pass that kind of difficult situations it is important to make sense of what has happened: “There are people who are having a bad time and do not feel understood.”
During the interview, Motos asked the Cadiza what advice he would give to a person who has just lost a loved one and Padilla was blunt: “You have to restructure your head, you have to spend Christmas, summer, a full year without that person. The word is very good, he takes out the anguish of the body. You have to tell your story and realize that you are not the only one who is going through that, that everyone feels the same as you. ” The actress and humorist also insisted on the need to respect if a person does not want to cry and in seeking meaning to duel because “everything negative has something positive.”
Padilla continued to tell what his family’s losses have removed. “My brother has changed me, I am not the same as a few months ago, I’m changing, I’m transforming, learning to endure pain more,” he confessed. And he explained how important it has been for her to thank the time that has happened to those people. “We are looking for why, but there is not. Each one is at their level of grief, at first it is difficult for you to thank that person who leaves, ”he said. “When I left my brother’s funeral, we went to the town bar and provided for his life. It is given when someone marries or has a child, you also have to celebrate life and you have to celebrate that you leave. There are people who don’t understand that, ”he says.
In, the humorist defined himself as “a little geek.” “I am always reading and going to courses. But I need to understand how my brain works and why I am happy despite everything. I lost my father, my mother and my husband, but I have never stopped being happy. Never, ”recognized Martín Bianchi. During the interview, Padilla also gave details of what he has learned during these years in which Spain has traveled talking about its history. “The important thing is to laugh because laughter abstracts you from pain and sadness, makes you release endorphine, the hormone of happiness, and that helps you get out of the well,” he said.
