A Dreamer Since Birth

Today, is my birthday and it’s quite special. I was born at 10:45 PM on a Thursday 23 years ago and today is another Thursday as well. If I may, I would like to make a toast. Not to myself, rather to my friends and family. I would also like to raise my glass to you! Yes, you! 

I am grateful to my wonderful friends and family for always supporting me and listening to me ramble about my dreams and life. Many of you know, that I was born into a humble farm working  and immigrant family. We did not have much, but it did not matter because we had each other. I am eternally grateful for their warmth and love. And to my friends, thank you for always supporting me and listening to me. Whether it’s regarding my personal life or professional life, I thank you for loving me. I love you too.

And thank you, my blog readers and followers! With around 60K views each month from around the world, I feel your support and I promise to not disappoint. I also want to thank life, for being so beautiful…regardless of any tough times and pain. The world and life have allowed me to visit 9+ countries so far and have given me the ability to interact with all walks of life. Thank you world, for taking care of me. I promise to take care of you too! Stay sane and humble. Cheers! Fe sahetek! Salud! Sante! Salute!

"I have always been a dreamer. People tell me to get my head out of the clouds a lot. But I never listen, why should I? If it wasn't for my dreams, I wouldn't be where I am now...Here I was, this baby growing up in the barrio (Spanish ghetto), with a desire to meet the world and love the world. I knew there was more to life than what I was seeing. I was not going to let my family's situation hold us back from our American dreams. I studied hard and earned scholarships and grants to college. I was determined to work! I fell in love with the world and met the right people. I am glad the world has taken care of me and I will care for you! Thank you for these 23 beautiful years and many more to come!"
