Richard Harper

 I'm writing this today with pain, but at the same time with happiness.

It all started on January 26, 2020, when the song "Anyone" by Demi Lovato came out. On a normal day on Facebook, suffering from depression where nobody was listening to me, I posted it. A special person arrived, a person who, besides loving me, treated me as if I was part of his family. His name is Richard Harper. It's ironic, he has the same name as me, only in Spanish it's Ricardo.

From that moment on, a story began. We have had ups, downs, and improvements, like any other people who feel love. A few days ago, he was diagnosed with a horrible illness, the one most hated by humanity. But this time, I have faith that a miracle or whatever I have to believe in will make him better. He has been a strong, brave, educated man; he has always listened to me, just as I have listened to him.

Even though I haven't met him in person yet and I don't know if that will ever happen, I embrace him, I love him, I feel him from a distance. The way he is, he's there for me; he has been the rock of his family, as well as mine. I am so grateful to him that it truly hurts me that the Universe would hurt good, innocent people.

Today, I ask God, the Universe, or whatever listens to me, to truly heal him, to make him better, to truly allow him to keep shining as he is, so that despite having boring lives, we are okay, we keep moving forward.

He has taught me to be brave, to persist, to fight for my dreams, to save money, to be mindful, and so on. Today I shout: please, somebody listen to him and help him. I know he will be able to make it and get through this.

With nothing more to say, I love you very much, Richard. You are one of the best people who has come into my life.
