Today I went to a conference of an Argentinian writer that I like, it was about how to succeed with the resources I have, it was specially designed for Venezuelans and the situation the country is in. I have to confess I was a little scared that maybe it would make me change my mind about leaving my country and living somewhere else. But he said that he didn't come to make us stay or leave but to make us discover the reason why. ( here is a link that explains a little about the Venezuelan Crisis for those who are not familiar with it https://youtu.be/OrfM5UD-Azk )
Also to remind us about the good things that make us Venezuelans, to recover them and to stop focusing on the problem and work on the solution, to stop waiting for someone that can save us when the only ones that can do it are us, to be the change we want and leave the drama ( a Venezuelan quality ), to remember we are conquerors that we love to steal the show where ever we go,our generosity with the people we don't know, the ability to make new friends everywhere we go, and that love that we have left behind for our country. To be responsible for making up the errors but also for creating our destiny, because we are not defined by what surrounds us but what good can we make out of it. Whenever I leave my country it will not be because I'm running away, I'll be taking my country in my heart and showing the beautiful and awesome about the venezuelans, and that I can always go back to my wonderful peace of earth and that there is no where like Venezuela!
