A BETTER LIFE

My dad told me once that he was going to go back to Mexico, as soon as me and my sister graduated from College and got a good stable career/job. He told me, that he wanted to die in his Tierra natal. I asked him “Why did we come here then, if all this time you have been wanting to go back?” We came here for you. At the time I didn’t understand that, but now that I am a little older and am a parent of my own, I understand completely what he meant that day. Because of his decision to come to the USA I have gotten a good education and a stable career/job and thank him for the sacrifice he took 20 years ago. I just saw this trailer because I heard on the news that a Latino was nominated for the Oscars and wanted to know what the buzz was all about. Now I know. You’ll understand when you click play for this trailer called “A Better Life”. Gracias APA.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY APA

Today my dad turns 48 years old. He has been a huge influence in my life, the reason why I set out to start my own company is because of him. We came to the USA 18 years ago, his mission to give us a better opportunity and life here in the USA, this mission is still going and when he decides that it’s completed he will go back to his “Tierra Natal” Guaymas Sonora Mexico. I take his sacrifice as a motivational resource every time I feel like my problems are a big deal, his advice has taken me to the point that I am at now and his support the confidence to count on someone when in need. I remember the stories he used to tell me when I was little, honestly I thought they were real, the way he used to help me with my homework and how he supported me when I wanted to play soccer instead of his favorite sport basketball. “Gracias Jefe”.
