Blessed weekend family, nice to greet you again.

This weekend, I select a theme that comes from the heart of your writing, being:

What is the best thing about living in your country? - Explain your answer and use examples - Use your own photos.

My country is called Venezuela, beautiful nature in all its splendour, surrounded by great natural and cultural landscapes, which when appreciated speak for themselves, is located on the north coast of South America, bordered to the north by the Caribbean Sea, to the south by Brazil, to the east by Guyana and to the west by Colombia.

Country that is divided into three emblematic regions such as: the coastal-mountainous region, the plains, without forgetting Guyana, I invite you to investigate each one, under the experience of each Venezuelan member in hive, have shaped in various communities, leaving a worldwide footprint in their writing, either sharing with their loved ones in their majestic landscapes or under a work experience, which makes it unique and special in every heart.

It has an infinite number of heritage sites in each region of the country, colonial architecture that has been preserved and in its moments emblematic characters made history and transcend such as: Simón Bolívar our Liberator and all his army, Dr José Gregorio Hernández the doctor of the poor, without forgetting the patron saint of Venezuela in spiritualism, Queen María Lionza, among others.

Born in the state of Merida, known as the city of the knights, one of the most visited Andean towns, for its landscapes that are of magazine without leaving aside our majestic University of the Andes, proudly graduated from the same.

Surrounded by humble, hard-working, enterprising people who have fought against so many adversities, I can summarise that we are the warriors by not emigrating and by living our situation first-hand.

Our currency is known as the Bolivar, the most devalued currency in the world.

In spite of the economic crisis that the country is currently going through, it has majestic resources such as oil, natural gas, iron, diamonds, among others, that with people with futuristic visions can be exploited and be the country of the great world if they set their minds to it or at least equal it in time, with hard work and people prepared for it.

Based on the question of the weekend: I love my country, for the simple fact that I have the greatest wealth and that is priceless, being the family, even though it is not complete due to countless social and economic factors, which encompasses every Venezuelan home, with movie anecdotes that in time will be history, so many tears and smiles will return from the bottom of each being, perhaps not in its entirety by beings who have already left for heaven and could not say goodbye, a goodbye in the next life, which is not easy to assimilate.

To feel, to appreciate affection in every aspect of our life, whether good or bad, to our pillars or loved ones is priceless, in the union is the strength and a bear hug is the best ingredient.

Of course, we know that time is unforgiving and what has prevented thousands of young people from pursuing their dreams is limited by various situations:

Those who could not graduate because their parents could not cover their basic needs and emigrating was the best option.

For those who graduated with the greatest sacrifice and had to stay because they did not have the means, the support, the drive perhaps, struggling in their country and have not been able to practice, because the following balance comes into play: On the one hand to be called by your degree is priceless, but with hunger in the rib is not worthy and the opposite case to exercise another function that has nothing to do with what you studied, but with money in your pocket to half survive.

In both cases, the results have been frustrated, because what has been fought for is not valued and endless questions come into effect, which are not at all encouraging for the current off-base administrations.

Clear examples of this are:

-It cannot be possible that a qualified person with postgraduate degrees and master's degrees earns the same as a person who could not, for reasons described above, or simply did not want to, because it was made viable for him to work from the beginning.

-It is not to discriminate, but every effort must be valued in life in order to prosper a country, to promote its inhabitants and to be an example for the new generation to follow.

Of course, every head is a world and not everything is bad, in order to value what we have it is necessary to lose it and to obtain great lessons that mark each step.

With faith and hoping for a change and the opening of infinite opportunities that every Venezuelan longs for, whether he is in his country or the one who left and his dream is to return to his homeland.

Besides being with family in our native country, appreciating and sharing each landscape is a beautiful delight both for the eyes and the palate with the variety of gastronomy that represents us in each region such as the famous arepa, pastries, cachapas, among others, that mark our childhood, youth and maturity, whether in family, couple or friends, wearing our tricolour flag (yellow, blue and red) with 7 white stars.

As the years go by, it will provide future generations with a glimpse of what this place was like, serving as a general culture for our offspring.

Change is part of life and so will Venezuela be reborn.

Greetings and blessings to all.

The photos of the murals were taken at MASTER FAST FOOD, located in the state of Mérida, in the sector of Avenida Universitaria. I used the deepl translator as my language is Spanish.

Sort:  

If there is one thing that makes Venezuelans stand out, it is that we are or have learned to be resilient. Venezuela is a rich country that has been plundered, not power and still gives. Family is already a great wealth that we are grateful for, and also to be as good Venezuelans able to make a joke out of situations that others would cry for.

I share your opinion, every grey experience, according to the perspective of the person, results in a masterful joke and fills us with joy, such a memory.
Venezuelan who respects himself eats arepa in any part of the world, hahaha, greetings.

I think your country looks fantastic to visit. It would be a place maybe one day to visit.
