• Social Networks Twitter surrenders to the PP deputy who was wrong in the vote on the labor reform: "Homemade, the whole world loves you"

"Sometimes a profession as simple as yours has more value than the most precious of society."

With that phrase she concludes the emotional letter that the Twitter user @sarareipalacios has shared saying that she had "broken her heart".

As he explained in a tweet early this Wednesday afternoon, he found the letter along with 50 euros when opening his premises.

It is, he has said, the letter from "a grateful client" for how well he had treated them at his hairdresser when they came, before Christmas, to have his wife, suffering from Alzheimer's, cut her hair.

The man remembered the scene in great detail.

"She arranged us side by side and, when it was time to cut, she turned her chair towards me so that I could see her expression (...) her eyes reflected the illusion of a little girl. Plus, she was gorgeous!"

A later detail gives an account of the goodness of the result.

"She felt so pretty... she visited the bathroom mirror several times a day and she always came out radiant."

The letter closes with a sad note - "unfortunately, he died in November" - and a moving reflection.

"My wife's haircut was probably one of many you did that day. It was one more, but for her it was important because it revitalized her sense of self and highlighted her singular beauty. I would like this letter and your humble gift serves to appreciate the importance of your wonderful delicacy and kindness at work".

The gesture of the "grateful customer" has quickly gone viral: in five hours it has been spread by some 5,000 retweets and quoted tweets and has collected almost 25,000 likes.

But that soaring virality has also become a problem.

Because several users have replied that

the thank you letter was suspiciously similar to another received on June 27, 2020 by another Sara

.

In this case, written in English and addressed to another Sara, surnamed Verkuilen and based in Virginia, United States.

The Spanish Sara has garnered many affectionate comments: "Congratulations on your empathy", "the importance of knowing how to treat people", "frame it and hang it on the hairdresser", "congratulations on your work" or "a haircut like that It can only be done by a person with a lot of kindness in his heart."

But the tone has changed when the coincidence between the two stories became known.

"Did you just plagiarize a story to get a little home?" Asked one of the tweeters who associated the two episodes

.

"You have to be despicable to copy a letter from someone else who has already posted and take credit for likes on top of that."

And the reproaches have been rising in tone.

"You are disgusting and sorry", "you have to be very pathetic", "what a shame".

Nor did the signature, just a rubric, invite confidence.

Several hours after her first message, the Spanish Sara was silent.

The basic difference between both stories is 50 euros which, yes, seem authentic.

But the "grateful customer" who would have put them under the door does not appear either.
