„One of the most difficult moments in my life was when my father I had a very bad accident. So severe that he was plastered from head to toe. I was a soldier then, admitted to the Conservatory, full of dreams and hopes that my life would go in the direction I had planned. Veselin Marinov shared this in a frank online interview and added: “At the same time, going home, I found my mother, who had stopped working to take care of my father. He just lay there for months, without any means of existence.
Only I know how I went to Sofia, how I started. I couldn't even eat in the student chair, which cost 50 cents, because I could only spend 25 BGN per month. The dormitory cost BGN 6.50. I had 18.50 BGN left, which was not enough for anything. It was a year until I started with “Impulse” to earn some money.
Marinov says that he is " was extremely difficult, the tram ticket alone cost him 6 cents, writes Hotarena.
“ A tripe soup cost 6 cents, which with 2 slices of bread was the main reason for my financial support in Sofia. This is also the main reason why I don't eat tripe soup now, I ate too much," the singer recalled.
Despite the difficulties, he is still grateful to his parents, with whom he was always very close.
“I can say that I had the most wonderful parents in the world. They gave me everything a child, a growing boy, needed. I grew up in a wonderful family and was very attached to my parents. I experienced the loss of my father very hard. It was 2018 when I just tried to lie with life through the doctors I know, but at some point I realized that life drew the line. My father lived a life full of endless hardships, poor years. This is the post-World War II generation when poverty was appalling. "My father passed away at the age of 87, I still can't go to our house in Polski Trumbesh to this day," said Marinov.
The singer shared that even every creak on the floor or some unnecessary porcelain item that sits on the cupboard, all this is a memory that brings him back to years of laughter, joy, guests, friendships and most of all the relationship between his parents to each other and to -their children.
“My mother lived only for her children. She hadn't seen the sea, she hadn't seen anything. And for me there is no better person than her. It was very difficult for me. When he left this year, I realized that the world really isn't the same anymore. And it never will be. No matter how much I go to the grave, no matter how much I blame myself sometimes if I managed to do everything. Time passes, but you don't forget, you continue to live with the sorrow. Therefore, the only thing you can say as a consolation is that they went the right way. Because there are cases where parents send their children. And that's the scariest thing. Everything is going very fast. "Just like a moment," Marinov told through tears.
The star also remembered how his career began. An interesting fact is that Vesco did not dream of being a musician, but a teacher of literature or history.
“I started learning guitar, gradually became a singer with an orchestra, but I never thought that I would become a professional musician, a performer, that I would study academic music. My dream was to become a teacher - of literature or history. I also played football in the Polish Trumbesh team”, says Marinov.
However, fate decides for him and a series of coincidences predetermine his life.
“I couldn't pass the matriculation exam in mathematics, which didn't give me the opportunity to get a diploma along with the others and apply. If I had applied and received my degree, my entire life would have taken a completely different path. Maybe I wouldn't have met the people I met in the barracks. But every evil is for good, as they say. I had a prom, but I didn't have a degree. I couldn't get it as I had a couple and had to take a resit exam which was at the end of August. I took mathematics with an excellent (3)“, the audience favorite said with a laugh and continued: “And then there was nowhere to apply and nothing to do. Only 20 days after that they took me as a soldier“.
One of Veselin's biggest pains is that today sentimental people who experience everything emotionally do not succeed much in life.
“Life today is evil. The feelings were in the years when I grew up as a young boy. People loved each other back then. They married for love. Not so now. Friendships are now more interests. This is the thing that doesn't give me much hope for the future,”, Marinov said lightly.
When asked what is the most difficult moment in his life, Vesco thinks about it and answers: “Difficult moments everyone experiences. For example, I went through a difficult period when I was sick with Covid. There was one night where you never knew where things would go. I think of diseases first. I have also had car accidents. Even to this day on the 5th of July I try to make a Qurban for health because that's when I crashed. It's a way of saying thank you, because life often takes hard roads.
However, without thinking about it, the singer states that the most important thing for him is his family. “I love my family. I love my wife because she gives me peace, she gives me comfort. My daughter, who I see every day that the upbringing that we gave her with her mother is the basis for becoming a decent person and citizen. He works on his profession, realizes himself, builds himself up. My brother-in-law is also a great guy. I adore my grandchildren. I also have few, but real friends,”, says Marinov and adds:
“You have to suffer life, find your answers on how to continue, and then real friends come. And so it is in love. It very often happens at a young age that we get tied up because of momentary feelings. I wish I could turn back time to fix mistakes I've made, especially in love. But there is no one to give me that opportunity. That's why I use them as a lesson, only time goes very fast“.
