I don't know exactly what to say, I don't want to talk about politics even though it permeates all human dimensions. I guess it is easy to get discouraged is all, it is easy to feel that things are simply not going to get better. I understand that we are in a kind of moral and social collapse, Venezuelans do what we can, how we can and when we can with the tools we have to survive in a dignified way in this country, against all odds. I am a Biomedical Engineer, the truth is that I am not doing badly at all, but still there is always a lack of money and the truth is that I am far from living a life of luxury, however I am grateful for what I have. How can my country get ahead with this political class? I believe that people do not ask for too much, is it too much to ask for the electricity service to stop going out all the time? is it too much to ask for not having to wait in line or get up early for a gas cylinder? is it too much to ask to be able to dissent publicly without fear of reprisals or having your life taken away from you?
¿Quien dijo que todo esta perdido? yo vengo a ofrecer mi corazón.
Who said all is lost? I come to offer my heart.
I want to show you this song by Fito Paez and dedicate this song to all of us as Venezuelans, a timely and necessary song at this time. This song helps me to give myself some encouragement and hope. This is no longer about right or left, this is about recovering our dignity as a people, as a nation. I have not stopped listening to this song today, the Venezuelan people really have energy. I have already lost count of the years that have passed, years of lies and of seeing how the nation is ruined. I apologize, because I know it does not make much sense what I am writing but it helps me to get out this rage that I have stuck, this desire to shout a thousand things to the 4 winds. My son will be 5 years old in February, and I think he has the right to live in a country with the minimum conditions to raise useful human beings prepared for life. I have never taken so seriously the option of leaving the country as now, maybe this year after arranging some papers I will take advantage of some opportunities that are out there. I have nothing more to say, if anyone has read this, thank you for your time, if not, at least I would like to share with you the song I shared with you.
