Forgiveness for the damage caused / WEEK 194

This is my presentation in this community and I want to do it with a topic that seems very important to me. I do not think that the person to whom it is addressed will read it because he/she is not in this ecosystem, but, it is something that may be useful to others who are going through or have gone through something as hard as this.

Eight months ago I had to leave my country looking for a better life, to help my children and family economically. In this process we all lose something important because no matter how much money or wealth we can make, the truth is that we lose the sentimental and the love of family, friends, the neighborhood.

For this reason I want to apologize to the mother of my son because I left Cuba and left her all the responsibility for the upbringing of our son, who is only two years old. I ask her forgiveness for not participating in the education of our son, not being in his process of development and growth, not seeing his first teeth, not being there when he can say his first words in the most coherent way possible, not being there to pamper him when he is crying or contribute to his recovery from an illness, so common in this stage of life.

I also want you to forgive me for breaking this relationship that had in our son the best of both of us because, no matter how much we want to explain it, the truth is that we do not know when we will be face to face and necessarily love will cease to have that warmth and affection necessary for it to continue to be preserved as something passionate and beautiful. You should look for a new relationship and I will continue with my sentimental life because we are both still young.

It is true that the lack of my son and the strength that you represented in my life will be necessary for me to move forward, but that same son that I left to help you will be the necessary engine to continue fighting to improve our lives and because one day you will be with me. It is possible that the love of a couple does not exist, but the link we have with our son is forever and will be what keeps me with the necessary strength to get back together again.

Whether you forgive me or not is in your hands.

I will continue to wish the best of life for you and our son.
