When things get uncomfortable, I think of all the comforts I've had. When I start to feel a little weak, I remember the moments when strength carried me through. When I start thinking it's not worth it, I focus on my goal; And that's how I keep on going.
¡Ay bendito! Pobre Puerto Rico. Si. Ese es el pensar de hoy. Puerto Rico aparentemente está bien jodío, pero no es culpa de La Comay y sus aupiciadores. En verdad, ell@s no teinen nada que ver con esto. Puerto Rico está jodío por los puertorriqueños. Sorry people, pero esa es la que hay. Somos nosotros los responsables. Claro, que entre…
Humility is knowing you are exceptional, yet accepting there are others who are more exceptional than you. People seem to think being humble is putting yourself down; that true humility means you cannot find yourself incredible. But I think the greatest humility is the one that reckons its own accomplishments without basking in them like they were the light of…

Skydiving was on my bucket list for a really long time. It was one of those "to do's" that never leave the list: to fly free. Of course, as bucket lists go with single mothers, the list kept growing and very few things were getting crossed off. Then one night I ran into my friend Nacho. He's a local skydiver. After…
