Sophie loved puzzles. They reminded her of life — scattered pieces that somehow fit together if you had patience. One rainy evening, she called her boyfriend, Lucas, sounding a little frustrated.
“Please come over and help me,” she said. “I have a challenging puzzle here, and I can’t figure out how to get started.”
Lucas chuckled and asked, “What’s the picture supposed to be when it’s finished?”Sophie glanced at the box and replied, “According to the picture on the box, it’s supposed to be a beautiful sunrise.”
When Lucas arrived, he saw the pieces spread across the table.
But instead of jumping right in, he sat beside Sophie and smiled. “Sometimes,” he said softly, “when life feels scrambled, it’s not about rushing to fix everything. It’s about enjoying the process of putting it together.”Hours passed as they worked side by side, laughing and sharing memories.
When they finally placed the last piece, Sophie realized something: the puzzle wasn’t just about the image on the box. It was about connection, patience, and love. In that moment, she understood that while life may come with scattered pieces, with the right people by your side, you can always create something beautiful.
