life is miraculous
to be alive and breathing is remarkably against all odds
a near impossibility
yet what is inescapable about being alive is that you will not be so for long
you will die
sooner or later we all cease to be
young or old
life can stop at any moment, for any number of reasons
you may or may not have the fortune to live for as long as old blanco from the mountains of alajuela
so strive to make every breath count now
this very moment
live life
in sickness or in health
wealth or poverty
misery or delight
see the beauty
find the humor
question seriousness, authority and absolutisms
do not deposit your dreams on the uncertainty and improbability of anything above or below, before or after you
act on the fact that you are free to do so at this present moment
it is a gift beyond measure
and one we fail only too often to see

El es mi abuelo que gran orgullo para mi. Nunca espere encontrarlo en Internet, el es un gran hombre es el ejemplo de todos sus nietos.No alcanza el tiempo y las palabras para decir todo lo que es el y lo que significa para nosotros.
He is my grandfather, my great pride for me. What a surprise to find it on this website, my grandfather is a great man, is an example to follow. Not enough words to say everything that is and what it means for us.
