Medellin (Colombia), the 3rd May, 2010

Thanksgiving to Luz, the organizer of Latin Arabia

No event is perfect and, certainly, no first event is perfect.
Latin Arabia was a strike of faith and the first step of a dream for Luz, the organizer of the whole thing.

From the things that need to be upgraded I will not speak as I know Luz will also learn from this experience and make more, bigger, better.
From my side, I thank the pleasure of being present in this first event in Colombia and the opportunity to share my dance with students, audience and dance partners.
It was an immense joy to know another fellow dancers and laugh/share so much with them.

It was an immense joy to teach a beautiful group of girls coming from all over Colombia.

It was an immense joy to perform (only one little, tiny song though) for Colombian people and receive so much love and appreciation from people who were there and came to congratulate me about my performance.
Their words touched my heart and made the whole treap worth it.

And now, as in a note fashion, I will leave a little note especially directed to Luz (the event's organizer).

Sorry for anyone who does not know spanish but this must be written in the original language of Luz.
Here we go:

Querida Luz,
Esto es un mensage del corazon pero muy, muy publico. :)
Te agradezco por la oportunidad de estar en tu pais - en tu ciudad - tomando parte de un sueno que se te salta del Alma.
Acuerda te que la malvadez y los obstaculos son el otro lado de la Belleza y las Vitorias. Los demonios - todos ellos- siempre estaran ahi.
Con la Luz de Dios - esa que ya esta dentro de ti - hay que centrar-te en ti misma y jamas dejar de luchar (con verdad, honestidad y sin tiemblar) por lo que mas deseas.
Todos los suenos tienen un precio y todo el camino tiene sus piedras.
El poeta portugues FERNANDO PESSOA escribio algo asi:

LAS PIEDRAS DEL CAMINO?
HE ENCONTRADO MUCHAS,PUES MUCHAS, TANTAS PERO TANTAS QUE, UN DIA, SE LAS VOY A RECOGER Y HARE UN GRANDE CASTILLO CON ELLAS.
Deseo de todo el corazon que recojas las piedras, respires fundo y te construas tu castillo paso a paso, con corage, grandeza de Alma y Amor en el Corazon.
