A picture is worth a thousand words. Time stood still.//Una imagen vale más que mil palabras. El tiempo se detuvo.[ENG-SPA].
Time stood still
Mrs. Rosalba, a woman of thin appearance, with some gray hair, rested her head in her hands, with her gaze fixed on the horizon that could be seen because the window was open, the tulle curtain moved by the soft breeze of the night, the room was illuminated by the brightness of the moon and some lit lamps, she could see the old library, some pictures on the wall and as a curious fact the flowers, both in vases and as an ornament on the top of the wall.
Mrs. Rosalba was attacked by memories, seeing herself alone accompanied by a dog, sadness settled in her, when in previous years her life was prosperous, owner of a flower shop, she shared her life with her husband and son, but fate had taken care of tearing them both away at the same time, a tragedy that marked her life.
Today was one of those days when Mrs. Rosalba, with her thoughts in turmoil, threw the clock on the floor as a sign that time had stopped since the day of the tragedy, she did not care about the order and cleanliness of the room, she wanted to be reunited with her husband and son.
ESPAÑOL
El tiempo se paralizó
La señora Rosalba, mujer de apariencia delgada, con algunas canas, apoyada su cabeza entre sus manos, con su mirada fija en el horizonte que se dejaba ver por estar la ventana abierta, la cortina de tul se movía por la brisa suave de la noche, la habitación estaba iluminada por el brillo de la luna ademas de unas lámparas encendidas, dejaba ver la vieja biblioteca, unos cuadros en la pared y como dato curioso las flores, tanto en floreros y como adorno en la parte alta de la pared.
La señora Rosalba, la atacaron los recuerdos, al verse sola acompañada de un perro, la tristeza se instaló en ella, cuando en años anteriores su vida era próspera, dueña de una floristería, compartía su vida con su esposo e hijo, pero el destino se había encargado de arrancárselos a los dos al mismo tiempo, tragedia que marcó su vida.
Hoy fue uno de esos días en que la señora Rosalba con sus pensamientos revueltos, tiró al pisó el reloj en señal de que el tiempo se detuvo desde el día de la tragedia, poco le importaba el orden y el aseo de la habitación, ella quería reunirse con su esposo e hijo.

I would like this lady to spend her time again, as this meeting is a sure destiny.
Often problems lead people into depression. Greetings @tierra-errante.
Yes, and even more so now in the hectic world we live in.
Quizás la luna tenía la respuesta a su tristeza...
La tristeza marca a muchas personas, saludos @yenmendt.
It expresses the woman's sadness and loneliness very well. 😀
The woman's life changed after the tragedy of her husband and son, she plunged into sadness to the point of wanting to be reunited with them. Greetings @veryhappyday.
Poor Mrs. Rosalba, she is thinking about her family for she has no loved one left expect her dog.
After losing his family, his faithful companion is now a dog. Greetings @blessworld.
¿Le pasaría por sus neuronas la eutanasia? Quienes han perdido literalmente todo en sus vidas las abate la tristeza y se dejan carcomer por la depresión. Aprende a vivir la soledad, es un maravilloso paso al encuentro con uno mismo.
La depresión es un enemigo silencioso que hace mucho daño. Saludos @amigoponc.
So sad, but so well understood ... SHE threw the clock on the floor ... it makes perfect sense...
When she throws her watch on the floor it is a sign of dissatisfaction with life, sadness, the loss of her loved ones at the same time.
Such deep unhappiness ... you convey it well.

Gracias por el apoyo.
So tragic that a woman who once flourished is in this condition of loneliness. It's saddening.
She's just sitting there like there's no hope anymore because what hope is there if one has lost all their loved ones? I feel so much for her.
So touching story. Especially whwn it comes to living alone.
