always arriving on December 22 morning, and put the radio or TV to hear the live lottery drawing, I remember Maria Arcos. I remember her constantly, but in these times I am reminded of a scene that happened almost twenty years in the kitchen of my house Jaén.
- I hope we win the lottery.
- And what do you want to touch you, Mom.
- To not be poor.
said not to have much money, or to be rich, said "not to be poor" . She did not know whether it would be good or not rich, which knew perfectly well what it means to be poor ... and why, wanted to remain so.
She, Maria Arcos I owe many things and one of them is that my children knew how to instill that concept, among many others.
once told me one of my children when I was about nine years - But .. dad how to be poor if we have two TVs?
And I had to explain we were not homeless, but poor ..., absolutely.
Maria Arcos was the Mom, or my mother, and someday I'll have to write at length on this extraordinary person.
