We left at 3:40 a.m. from
My grandmother’s house.
I gave her a strong hug.
Also my sister.
I was leaving the place I love.
Never to return.
*
On the road to St. Peter
I became excited.
I had never left my country
Guatemala.
*
The journey was long and difficult.
I learned it is true:
!If you fall
You can get up!
I learned:
Confront life like a chicken
or
Confront life like a champion.
You decide.
