Today I thank you for all the days when I had no energy, and yet tiredly, I did it. The days I thought I was alone, and I really had wonderful people around me. The days when I wanted to sleep a little more, but the responsibilities in my head didn't allow me to go back to bed. The days when sadness, stress and anguish did not take the place that corresponded to happiness. The days when I heard a thousand and one criticisms, and decided to keep laughing. For every day I thought I couldn't, and in the end I could. I had the opportunity to receive people from different parts of the world who wanted to come to meet you, but today I take you with me so that the world knows you. Thank God... and excuse me if at some point I did not understand that it was not before or after, that it was today.”
