Jose rizal letter to leonor rivera pictures of love

What else can you expect from a man who grew up with around nine sisters? Aside from that, how can a woman ever resist such a refined, cultured and educated man? It is obvious that Teodora Alonso taught Jose a thing or two about how to treat the female species. When Jose was fifteen he saw a pretty, young girl wearing a red skirt trying to catch two butterflies.

As she was daintily sitting by the Los Banos river, Rizal approached her and lovingly offered her as many butterflies as she wished. Jose and Julia were just way too young and innocent to have a real relationship at that time so they eventually forgot about one another. Julia seems to be such a mysterious girl but the spontaneous way that Jose used to get to know her showed just what a sweet guy he was even at such a young age.

Who knows what the relationship of Julia and Jose would have blossomed into if they only knew each other longer?
