"I didn't think the sunglasses booth would be such an important stop on the Plan de Amigas. For many women, sunglasses are a way to show the world their style, their elegance, and their confidence. But for many others it can also be a perfect accessory to hide their tears, anger or sadness. That afternoon, a woman asked me to give her "the biggest and blackest glasses she had to hide her face". I froze for a moment. She was a beautiful woman but her eyes were filled with heartbreaking pain. "Why don't you try on these round, fashionable purple glasses," I said. They were daring even for me, but this woman needed colour and joy on the outside, to give her the strength to carry on on the inside. When she saw her reflection, her first reaction was to be startled. She looked at herself slowly, cautiously, then flirtatiously, and as I assured her that they looked perfect on her, I saw her crack a small smile. "I haven't felt so beautiful in a long time," she said. And she hugged me and thanked me. "I didn't do anything," I thought. As I watched her walk away, holding her glasses in her hands as if they were a treasure, I realised that perhaps this object was her charm to move forward and look at the next stage of her life with new eyes. Then I was the one with the smile on my face".
