I had to go to North Miami Beach yesterday for some real estate work. Cristian came along with me. The traffic was so bad becaue of Art Deco in south Beach and an accident on 1-95. It was a beautiful sun shiny day. So I ended up getting sidetracked and ended up having a great time people watching with my son.
Art Deco in Miami celebrates the style of the 1940’s. It was fun to see out of the box people dressed up and being silly. It was a great visual to the eyes. It’s good to do something different for a change and South Beach is a great place to do this.
In a letter to his daughters, President elect Obama tells them that they were the ones who inspired him to become President. He hopes for their children to realize their dreams. Most inspirations come from the true heart. If this is so, then I can see why he became president. This country needs a vision from the heart for the children. http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20090115/ts_alt_afp/uspoliticsobamachildren.

My home may have been “broken up” because I got divorced, but my dreams are not broken.
Our family has an annual “Tamale” dinner. This is a traditional meal from Colombia. We all look forward to this meal. I aksed my borthers, sister and sister’s in law what they love about the tamale dinner and unanimously it is the love in which they were created.
My life’s destiny is shaped by the love I have in my family. I am blessed that my parents are still alive and that I am close to my siblings. There are times where AI need to go into my quiet and alone space, but in the end in times of stress, it is my family who is there for full support. I am doubly blessed to have an extended family of great friends who are also there for me. My life is what it is because of the love I receive from them. Here my father gives some sentimental words of wisdom from his perspective in his older years(even though he always says he is 49). Continue Reading->
