Once upon a time there was an 8-year-old boy named Marco who lived in Assisi, the city of angels.
Marco loved spending time with his grandmother, who was always taking him around the city to discover new delightful places.
He loved spending his days in the shade of a large oak tree in the town of Assisi, sitting on a checkered blanket. It was his favorite place because it made him feel peaceful and happy.
In the distance Marco could see the verdant hills of Umbria and the outline of the Basilica of St. Francis.
Arriving, he pulled out a salami and cheese sandwich from his bag, accompanied by a small bottle of cool water. Marco sat down on the grass and began to eat, looking around. He was surrounded by lush, unspoiled nature, with a blue sky and a light breeze caressing his face.
Assisi surrounded them with its colors and the peace of nature as we created unforgettable memories that they would carry in their hearts forever.
Grandma pointed him to the church where she had made her first communion and told me about the games she played as a child while I listened rapt in her words and fell more and more in love with her story.
As he ate, Marco looked at his grandmother and smiled. He was grateful for these special moments with her, and he knew that these memories would be etched in his memory forever.
The hill was surrounded by wildflowers and trees swaying in the wind. Marco felt like he was in a magical place where time stood still.
The sun filtering through the branches of the oak tree creates a 'warm and relaxing atmosphere. Baby Marco seemed to savor every bite of the sandwich, as if it was the most delicious meal he had ever eaten.
Marco loved spending time with his grandmother and listening to her stories. But there was something strange about her, something that made him feel even more special.
It was as if Grandma had a magical power, which always made her happy and full of joy. The child knew that she was an angel, who had come down to earth to visit her grandson, just as she often did when she went to that special place.
Snack time with Grandma was always an adventure, and this time was no different.
As they ate, Grandma began to tell the child a magical story. She talked about the beauty of life and the importance of being grateful for every special moment.
But what the child did not know was that the real magic was happening right before his eyes. Grandma stood up and transformed into an angel, her wings shining in the sun. The child was overwhelmed by the beauty of that vision and was speechless.
The angel smiled at him and said, "Never forget this moment, my dear grandson. You will always remember this snack under the oak tree as one of the most special moments of your life." And with these words, the angel disappeared, leaving the child with a smile on his lips and a heart full of joy.
In this idyllic moment, Mark realized that life is made up of moments like these, the little things that make the days great. And he decided that he would try to capture these moments and preserve them forever.
From that day on, whenever the child went to his secret place under the oak tree, he felt the presence of the angel watching over and protecting him. And that special moment with grandma would always be vivid in his memories, like a precious treasure that he would never forget.
