I was born and half raised in Mexico City. in Mexico we don’t celebrate thanksgiving. I lived twelve years in Chicago and today is the first year that I don’t get to see my family to give thanks for all of our blessings. Even though I’m Mexican I live and celebrate the US traditions. its very hard to stay positive for me at times. its been one of the harder years or my life. even through all of this mess going on I am thankful, not only today but everyday of my life. I am thankful for: my sonshine, my family, my friends, Chicago, food, music, my Mexico family, seeing my great grandma for one last time, my brain, my sometimes weak heart, mountains, and most of all the feeling of love & support from my loved ones. I am thankful for my mother and father who struggle everyday to be better persons and who give it all for their family. I’ve never been so far away from them. I miss them so much! I am thankful for Manny who has given me his support through this hard journey. he who stands strong and has hope that I will soon be back. I am thankful for my big baby Gael and so lucky to have him with me right now. his silly questions and answers always put me in a better mood. knowing in giving it all for him makes every tear worth it. I am thankful for my friends who I met in high school and have stayed by my side since then. their support and love have no price! I know I’m not where I want to be in life but god holds something greater for me. this is temporary only temporary. thank you to everyone who is part of my life. thank you 💓
