is happy to announce that Gabriela is the second recipient
of the annual Deborah Strachan Memorial scholarship, awarded
annually to a young woman who shows particular leadership
in her community. We would like to thank the Strachan family
for making this expedition possible for Gabriela.
I
see…a long history made by the natures, I don’t
know how many years ago; green pine trees and flat areas, full
of life; great mountains and cliffs covered with plants make
this natural view; water reflects the mystery by the waterfalls
full of energy coming down from the mountains, lakes laying
on the ground without moving but just with the help of the wind,
moving to one side or the other.
I hear…the delighted wind telling me that now and on nothing
is impossible, that I can do what I set to be my goals. That
wants me to be proud because I am reaching my goal, to be on
top of the mountain and fill with joy my soul.
I smell…the fresh air that makes me think this is pure
nature, not only seeing it, but to smell the effort and the
motivation to do it, that’s something born from the deepest
of my heart, that nobody can imagine how much.
I taste…the juice squeezed from the fruit of life, tastes
sweet and delicate. I had never tasted something like this,
but the better thing is that I love it.
I feel…proud to make this effort. I feel tired at the
same time, but who would tell me that if I do this effort, I
would never be surprised? I feel I am dreaming.
I dream…this never is going to end.
