🇪🇸 ~ Yo nací en 1989 de una pareja de padre y madre profesionales, mi padre es militar (mayor técnico del ejercito) y mi madre es docente (directora, coordinadora), y como toda pareja joven con metas de vida por cumplir, el horario de oficina y las misiones en otros estados del país no eran cosas que pudieran ponerse en pausa.

🇺🇸 ~ I was born in 1989 to a professional father and mother couple, my father is military (major technician in the Army) and my mother is a teacher (director, coordinator), and like any young couple with life goals to achieve, the office schedule and missions in other states of the country were not things that could be put on hold.

A mi hermano pequeño y a mi nunca nos faltó cuidadores y familia, fuimos niños amados y atendidos, pero hay un tipo de soledad que experimentas a medida que vas creciendo y es esa ausencia de papá y mamá profesionales que salen a trabajar; los vez por la mañana antes de irte al colegio, y sabes que los veras de nuevo al final de la tarde o en la noche para cenar, pero tu, todavía siendo niño y ellos siendo tus personas favoritas: ¿Qué haces en todas esas horas del día, durante años?, mientras los esperas para contarles tu día y que ellos te respondan esas cosas sobre la vida a la que no les encuentras sentido todavía.

My little brother and I have never lacked caregivers and family, we have been loved and cared for as children, but there is a kind of loneliness you experience as you grow older and it is the absence of professional mom and dad who go to work; you see them in the morning before you go to school and you know you will see them again in the late afternoon or evening for dinner, but you, still a child, and they are your favorite people: What do you do in all those hours of the day, for years?, while you wait for them to tell you about your day and for them to answer those things about life that you can't yet make sense of.

En todas esas largas tardes después de regresar del colegio, yo encontré compañía e inspiración en los libros, y cuando me acabé la colección de libros sobre ciencias naturales y artes que tenía mi abuela, un día se me ocurrió preguntarle a mi mamá si podíamos tener "televisión por cable" (yo solo había escuchado que habían canales de animales y más caricaturas y mi curiosidad se disparó); esa misma semana se instaló televisión por cable por toda la casa.

In all those long afternoons after school, I found companionship and inspiration in books, and when I had finished my grandmother's collection of science and art books, it occurred to me one day to ask my mother if we could have "cable TV" (I had only heard that there were animal channels and more cartoons, and my curiosity was piqued); that same week, cable TV was installed throughout the house.

Y entonces descubrí un mundo aparte de "caricaturas", unas series con trama más densa que un capitulo auto conclusivo del catálogo de Hanna Barbera. El anime se volvio un motivo de hiperfocus y vaya, estas historias te hacían pensar y hacerte preguntas y cuestionar muchas cosas de tu entorno. Yo encontré allí infinita inspiración, por lo visual, por los argumentos, por la forma en que estaban construidos los personajes y también por la música y el idioma... y aunque sabía que era ciencia ficción, que no eran "reales" esos 4 pixeles... oye, si dejas que un adolescente escuche "Rimbu Revolution" o "X Dream" en un momento tan susceptible de la vida, mira, no va a volver a ser el mismo de antes 😂 🙌

And then I discovered a world apart from “cartoons”, a series with a plot denser than a self-concluding chapter of the Hanna Barbera catalog. Anime became a reason for hyperfocus and wow, these stories made you think and ask yourself questions and question many things around you. I found infinite inspiration there, for the visuals, for the plots, for the way the characters were constructed and also for the music and the language... and even though I knew it was science fiction, that those 4 pixels were not “real”... hey, if you let a teenager listen to "Rimbu Revolution" or "X Dream" at such a susceptible moment in life, look, you are not going to be the same as before 😂 🙌

En contrapartida, mi principal modelo a seguir detestaba el anime y muchas caricaturas irreverentes de la época que a mi me encantaban, pero a ella le crispaba los nervios "por lo obsceno" que eran.

On the other hand, my main role model hated anime and many irreverent cartoons of the time that I loved, but she had a "raunchy" attitude about them.

Mi abuelita materna era lo máximo, era la mejor, siempre la recuerdo con mucho amor porque buena parte de lo que soy hoy es gracias a ella: Mis valores principalmente, ella me enseño desde pequeña a ser amable, a ser prudente, a ser delicada (le puso especial atención en enseñarme a escribir bonito y a hablar correctamente, ese modo en que me educó me ha abierto muchas puertas en la vida y a ser bien recibida donde sea que voy, todo es gracias a ella y jamás lo olvido).

My maternal grandmother was the best, she was the best, I always remember her with much love because much of what I am today is thanks to her: My values mainly, she taught me since I was little to be kind, to be prudent, to be delicate (she paid special attention to teach me to write beautifully and to speak correctly, that way she educated me has opened many doors in life and to be well received wherever I go, everything is thanks to her and I never forget it).

Ella junto a mi mamá fueron mis principales modelos a seguir. De mi abuelita admiraba su temple y su carácter fuerte, era estricta pero nunca me trató mal y con los años, he comprobado que siempre tuvo la razón en todo. Y mi mamá es una mujer muy elegante y con un sentido del deber que te puede llegar a asustar, es la persona más perseverante que conozco y quisiera algún día llegar a ser tan fuerte e íntegra como ella; cuando la vida me ha colocado en situaciones difíciles o ambiguas, pensar en ellas me ha dado la fuerza de carácter para decir NO, y alejarme de cualquier sitio o persona que comprometa mis valores y mis principios. Gracias a su ejemplo, "yo no sigo la corriente".

She and my mother were my most important role models. I admired my grandmother's temperament and her strong character, she was strict but she never treated me badly and over the years I found out that she was always right in everything. And my mother is a very elegant woman with a sense of duty that can frighten you, she is the most persevering person I know and I would like to be as strong and integral as her one day; when life has put me in difficult or ambiguous situations, thinking about them has given me the strength of character to say NO and stay away from any place or person that compromises my values and principles. Thanks to her example, I don't go with the flow.

Tu post casi me conmueve porque me vi mucho en tu situación, soy hija de una madre que me crió sola y estaba muchas veces en el trabajo y encontré refugio de mi soledad en libros y anime, yo también vi Utena, Sailor Moon, Digimon, Cowboy Bebop y muchos otros en la televisión. Pd: tu madre está preciosa en las fotos de la boda!!!

The generation of professional parents was like that; and we adults who use the internet today are all more or less contemporaries hahaha ~
