Primero que nada estoy super feliz y es un verdadero placer participar en este Concurso de la comunidad Ladies of Hive #84, hasta ahora no había realizado mi estrada ya que en mi país Venezuela tenemos serios problemas con la electricidad y por supuesto el internet, pero eso no fue impedimento en acercarme hasta ustedes y responder la primera pregunta.

1.- ¿Cuál era su posición (en términos de nacimiento) en la familia? ¿Cómo le ayudó esa experiencia a convertirse en un adulto exitoso o le impidió convertirse en un adulto exitoso?

Soy la del medio, popularmente la del sandwich, aunque conmigo no se cumple lo que dicen del hijo del medio...

First of all I am super happy and it is a real pleasure to participate in this Contest of the Ladies of Hive #84 community, until now I had not made my estrada because in my country Venezuela we have serious problems with electricity and of course the internet, but that was not an impediment to approach you and answer the first question.

What was your position (in terms of birth) in the family? How did that experience help you to become a successful adult or did it prevent you from becoming a successful adult?

I am the one in the middle, popularly the one with the sandwich, although what they say about the middle child doesn't apply to me...

Siempre fui una chica tranquila, me encanta estudiar y leer, trataba de sacar buenas notas para satisfacción propia y para ganar algún permiso.

Agradezco a mis padres que me inculcaran buenos valores aunque a veces un poco machistas pero igual agradecida.
Salí a trabajar desde los 14 años; era niñera y algunos fines de semana mi hermana mayor me llevaba a su casa para ayudarla a limpiar la casa, lavar la ropa o ayudarla con mis sobrinos y me pagaba por ello.

Recuerdo cuando cursaba mi ultimo año en el colegio y comenzamos a reunirnos mas seguido con mis amigos (casi todos los fines de semana) jejeje 😁 en una oportunidad mi mejor amiga me fue a buscar a casa y mi papá ni siquiera espero que yo saliera a saludar ni nada; de una vez le dijo: "Ella no va" y yo me puse a llorar y me dio mucha rabia, pero luego se me paso y continué con mi vida de "sometida" como le dicen a los jovenes y adolescentes que no dejaban salir.

I was always a quiet girl, I love to study and read, I tried to get good grades for my own satisfaction and to earn some permission.

I am grateful to my parents for instilling good values in me, although sometimes a little macho but still grateful.
I went to work since I was 14 years old; I was a nanny and some weekends my older sister would take me to her house to help her clean the house, do the laundry or help her with my nephews and nieces and she would pay me for it.

I remember when I was in my last year at school and we started to meet more often with my friends (almost every weekend) hehehe 😁 once my best friend went to pick me up at home and my dad did not even wait for me to go out to say hello or anything; once he said: "She's not going" and I started to cry and I was very angry, but then I passed and continued with my life of "submissive" as they say to young people and teenagers who did not let me go out.


Aunque mi papá tenía un carácter súper fuerte y era de pocas palabras, de pocos abrazos, igual lo amo y lo amaré y agradezco a Dios haberme premiado de esa manera.
Hace poco mas de 20 años ya no está en este plano pero su recuerdo sigue intacto ☹️ Ok aqui estoy llorando...

Although my dad had a super strong character and was of few words, few hugs, I still love him and I will love him and I thank God for having rewarded me that way.
A little over 20 years ago he is no longer on this plane but his memory is still intact ☹️ Ok here I am crying....

Siempre respete a mis padres y a veces si me decian que no iba pues no iba, tenia claro que no queria ser como mis hermanas mayores que muchas veces se fugaban para ir a fiestas, yo en cambio nunca lo hice.
Yo queria estudiar, graduarme, estudiar en la universidad aunque para mi papá eso era perder el tiempo el queria que solo trabajara y ya; pero no, yo entre en la universidad y para mi experiencia de vida, mi papá muere de manera natural a los pocos meses, fue el mayor dolor de mi vida.
Aun así continué y logre graduarme con mucho sacrificio, fui la unica en mi casa que tiene un titulo universitario.

I always respected my parents and sometimes if they told me not to go, I didn't go, I knew I didn't want to be like my older sisters who often ran away to go to parties, but I never did.
I wanted to study, graduate, study at the university although for my father that was a waste of time, he wanted me to just work and that was it; but no, I entered the university and for my life experience, my father died naturally a few months later, it was the biggest pain of my life.
Even so I continued and managed to graduate with much sacrifice, I was the only one in my house that has a college degree.


Hoy por hoy en mi vida adulta, trato de darles a mis hijos eso que yo no tuve y no hablo solo de lo material; sino esos pequeños pero poderosos detalles que hacen de tu vida plenamente sana.

Aunque es un poco tarde quiero invitar a la bella @monica-ene, estoy inmensamente agradecida por todas las oportunidades y por interactuar dia a dia con personas tan maravillosas y de las que he aprendido un monton.

Hasta aquí mi publicación por el día de hoy, espero que haya sido de tu agrado y pueda leer tus comentarios
Gracias a todos, gracias a la vida.
Polvos mágicos para ti que me lees.

Today in my adult life, I try to give my children what I didn't have and I'm not just talking about material things; but those small but powerful details that make your life healthy.

Although it is a little late I want to invite the beautiful @monica-ene, I am immensely grateful for all the opportunities and for interacting day by day with such wonderful people from whom I have learned a lot.

So far my publication for today, I hope you liked it and I can read your comments.
Thanks to all, thanks to life.
Magic dusts to you who read me

Hola @leslieq78 me alegra mucho que te hayas animado a participar y contarnos tu experiencia. La verdad que nuestra vida de jovenes es una de las mejores etapas.
Gracias por atender a la invitación, te deseo mucho exito en este concurso.

Muchísimas gracias a usted por la invitación, saludos y bendiciones

Hello @leslieq78. You have a lovely family. So you were in the middle. And you went to work at 14. You were very studious. I can see how working hard at your education paid off for you. Even when our parents are very stern, they are still our parents. We love them and miss them when they are no longer with us.

Thanks so much for sharing your story. Have a good weekend.

Yes, in spite of everything I was happy and I have very good memories, thank you for bringing this topic to the community.
