ABOUT ME

Miami born Cuban exile that sailed beyond the edge of the sea.
Now I belong to the sea and belong to no land or nationality.

Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crece la palma,
Y antes de morirme quiero
Echar mis versos del alma.

Yo vengo de todas partes,
Y hacia todas partes voy:
Arte soy entre las artes,
En los montes, monte soy.

Todo es hermoso y constante,
Todo es música y razón,
Y todo, como el diamante,
Antes que luz es carbón.
-Jose Marti

PHILOSOPHY

- No human being can be imprisoned if hope burns in their heart. -Aung San Suu Kyi
- Never stop moving while staying completely still.
