On a day when most Romanians enjoy the Easter celebration with their family, Mihaela Rădulescu chose to share a deep and emotional message. The star spoke openly about the suffering she went through in recent months, but also about the lessons that helped her move on.
On Facebook, Mihaela Rădulescu published a sincere message, in which she urges people to be kinder to each other and not to forget the lonely or less fortunate.
“Happy Easter, dear Christians! Enjoy with all your heart the beautiful moments spent with your loved ones and keep those you have lost in your heart. Some may be very lonely today, not everyone has the luxury of being with family or friends. don’t be sad go and be there for the less fortunate, visit an orphanage or a nursing home where seniors don’t get visitors… There are so many ways to overcome any sadness, loneliness or pain. Find the way to be kind, compassionate, helpful to others,” wrote the star.
The pain hidden in silence
Mihaela then made one of the most honest confessions of the last period, talking about the losses that deeply marked her life.
“I have been living with immense pain lately. Losing my husband and my mother in just 6 months has been… the darkest period of my life. But not for a second did I give up being there for others, knowing that the little joy I could bring to someone else was healing me too… I was silent for 8 months, I chose not to cry in public. I had help from family, from the best friends I could have asked for in life, but also from strangers, good people who left a good thought for me wherever they could. People who really care are the best part of the dark days in anyone’s life.”
The star also explained why she chose to keep her suffering to herself, without expose it to the public. “I refused any interview, from any country, I didn’t want anything to be about me, I didn’t want to be the victim crying in front of the cameras. I didn’t earn my money or fame by being someone’s girlfriend, but only by my work, my achievements, my activism, my books, my good deeds for others and I’m proud that I never gave up who I am, what I worked and built with all my might.”
Exhortation for women and those going through difficult times
The message ends with a strong call for dignity, courage and fighting for your own way: “No woman should be just someone’s woman, no matter how much love, respect, trust and safety there is on both sides. I say this to any strong, independent, capable, intelligent…and loving woman – don’t let anyone label you or to humiliate you, to treat you as if you have no value, don’t let anyone tell you how to love and how to be silent… Fight for who you are, build your own path like I did, make sure you don’t end up on the streets if your love ends, no matter the scenario… Rely on yourself, stay financially independent and don’t hesitate for a second to fight for your rights, for the respect you deserve. When they try to humiliate you, discredit you in front of others just because that’s all they can, remember who you are, straighten your back, keep your head up and go on your way. There is a time to cry too a time to fightas you know better, to return to yourself. Don’t argue with mean and petty people, because meanness is the mother of stupidity and logic won’t work with them. Neither does humanity. Nor common sense. Do good all around and you will be fine…”
