I confess something, the memories I have of my childhood are vague, because I do not have a picture of me, which echoes it; however, I can tell you that I was born in a town called Puerto Cabello, Carabobo State, #Venezuela, raised by mom and dad with four other brothers, of which only three are left, because two of them dad God has called them and surely guide my way. I believe in God above all things, I had a somewhat complicated childhood. To be honest, food was always scarce at home, but my parents always managed to get something to eat, even if it was very little, but we shared it among all of us and we were happy. Very few times I had a toy to have fun with, because we were five little kids, three boys and two girls. And before bringing a toy, surely dad preferred to buy something to eat, something that my parents had and that was that the first thing was studies, because they said that you had to study to become someone in life. I don't know if today I share that thought with them, because technology is so advanced that people bet on it and many think that it is not necessary to be a doctor, an engineer or an architect to earn money and ensure a future. However, as good children, we all get ahead, we all manage to study and we all have in life something or someone to fight for. My childhood was a mixture of curiosity for life, full of total innocence, in search of discovering new things, without fear of adventure, but with a lot of responsibility, worthy of a good education instilled by my parents.
When I reached the stage of my youth or adolescence, it was something magical, because I felt I had more freedom. I didn't neglect my studies, but my mom and dad were more accommodating. I was already alternating my studies with sports, being soccer my passion, although in #venezuela baseball is the king sport. When the baseball season arrives, the country is paralyzed, the fans of all the teams go crazy and everyone goes crazy for that sport. Nowadays it is no longer the same, because everyone knows that the political tile or the hairy hand took possession of the sport and play with the feelings of the people. Beyond the fact that things were not going well in my house, my adolescence made new thoughts, new feelings emerge in me, many of them accompanied by rebellion. Like those boys who feel the desire to explore new things, sometimes living that desire for independence, for freedom, it was a stage in which I was already dating a girl from my neighborhood. I confess that today, after more than 30 years of having met her, we got married and we are currently together trying to move forward and continue rowing this boat called life. During my adolescence I completed my high school studies and entered college, all with a lot of effort and dedication.
To reach this stage was complicated, because everything was like an avalanche. Once I left adolescence, I had to work hard to be able to continue my studies. Then it was alternating, studies, sports, girlfriend, work. I confess that it was exhausting, but it was worth all the effort. Today I am married to the love of my life, partner of a thousand battles, who has been with me through thick and thin and together we have faced many obstacles that we have been able to overcome. We are parents of two beautiful children: a boy who is now 23 years old, with a whole life ahead of him, full of opportunities, and, as for my second child, she was a beautiful girl, who left for heaven at only 13 years of age. This was the hardest blow that life gave us, mourning our souls for eternity. It is something very hard, dear friends, that one can hardly overcome, only to live the beautiful memories that she left us, always with a pleasant smile, capable of gladdening souls and hearts. These are moments in life when you think if everything you built was worth it, if all the future you planned was worth it. Many people who know me, give me words of encouragement and comfort, although they are well received. I consider that for that situation there is no consolation that is worth. But in this stage of my life, I achieved many things. Today I am a successful lawyer, an expert in Criminal Investigations and that is not given away at the corner; it is a lot of years of sacrifice, of late nights, of going through cold and hunger. But that has been rewarded, with knowledge, with good values and principles, being these transmitted to my children and that surely will continue from generation to generation. My little girl, who rests in peace, told me one day: Daddy, live life to the fullest, as if each day was the last of your existence. Those words, even though they brought tears to my eyes, this time of happiness, I always remember them and I dedicated myself to that, to live in the present, with my wife, with my son, always with his memory in my mind, soul, body and heart.
DeepL in its free version, with the hope that everything written here can be understood by you my dear readers.In this little article I tried to talk a little about myself about the different stages of my life, but one of the best things that has happened to me is to have met #hive. But every day I learn something new, it's such a complex world, which is always in constant innovation. I've been publishing for some time now and I'm looking for a place where I feel more comfortable to write about my experiences and tell you about the passages of my life. I am one of those people who are always looking for new things; I am passionate about the cryptocurrency world. Many times I want to get out of the monotony and look for other airs. Arrived today to this community, that although it is not Spanish speaking and I know little about the English language, I dared to make this publication, using the translator
I confess that, at the time of writing this little post, I was overcome with fear. Because I was about to publish in a new community for me. Where there are people who, in my opinion, and after having read many of their articles, give me that feeling that human beings have. You feel that you are immersing yourself in an unknown world, in search of acceptance, success and great achievements, but beyond that, to feel identified with the people who write through this community and that are a vile reflection of our day to day.
Thank you for reading my publications, I hope you like them and may God and the Virgin Mary bless you. I will see you again. Have a nice Sunday, full of joy, peace and love. Farewell @theshot2414.

Hello! Jorge.
No parent should have to bury a child. It's an indescribable pain that shakes me just imagining it.
I remember receiving that news when my brother-in-law passed away, and no one wanted to tell my in-laws. According to my mother-in-law, now a widow, she assures us that not even the loss of her husband compares to that of her son.
All that's left is to endure the pain and hope for a reunion in eternity.
As for studies and professions, in these times where technology rules, for the moment, it seems that, worldwide, the highest paid are doctors and programmers, who are usually computer engineers. Of course, if we're passionate about something, that's the best path.
Greetings and blessings to you and your family.
Thank you, dear friend, for your support and for those words of affection. We must continue rowing the boat, life goes on, only that it will always be there. A big hug...
