    Juan Salvador Gaviota is a book that I read a long time ago. With him I feel now looking at this image was the beginning of my awakening of consciousness, how many times have I read it, N times? Each time I took it, I started and did not stop... I found in each reading that there was something different or perhaps between the lines that spoke to me.

    I began to look at things differently, with other tones. Juan Salvador's enthusiasm to go beyond, was an apprenticeship to not stop in front of projects, to discover that we can find new horizons, we can take our conscience beyond, and wake up every day with the faith that everything can be achieved.

    Today after so many years, I look at this image remembering that book that every night of solitude was my company, messages that came, and waking up every morning felt something different in relation to the previous day.

    I would lend the books and then, I would buy them back because they were not returned, what a thing with lending books, I think they still continue with this practice.

    Seeing this image makes me want to go out and look for my companion book of so many nights, they would say to me: “That book again?



    Without knowing what it meant to me.

    How many more books came after it, opening a conscience that was so closed, step by step, I began to look at things that I did not see before, I did not even imagine a world so abundant and blessed among so many anxieties of many people who let themselves be carried away by it.

    That leaving things behind to find new things, leaving people, affections because they do not feel aligned, happens when the conscience discovers more.

    Most people follow the agglomerations without thinking if it is convenient for them or not. Only because everyone follows a line considering that this is the way it is.

    To get out of those groups, to find the sense is the best thing that can happen. Always go beyond, it is necessary to understand it. They are moments that when arriving through a book or a word the change is given. And in that, there is no turning back.
