Camina Siempre Adelante

Always Walk Forward
When I told my father
that I was going to fly,
that I already had my wings
and was leaving home.
He got serious and told me:
I went through the same,
I also left home
when I was your age.
As soon as life calls
children always leave;
the road is waiting for you
and it doesn't like to wait.
Always walk forward
taking the reins firmly,
but never offend anyone
so that no one offends you.
Always walk forward
and mark your path,
the better wheat you sow
the better the milling will be.
"You should not trust the stone
that you may come across,
move it away from the path
for those who come behind".
"When you lack a friend
or a dog to talk to,
look inside and with yourself
you should be able to converse.
Always walk forward
thinking that there is a tomorrow,
do not allow yourself to lose it
because the bed is comfortable".
Always walk forward
do not collapse for anything
and extend your hand openly
to whoever wants to listen...
When I told my father
that I was going to fly,
my eyes clouded
and I left home.
