First of all, this post I wrote while listening to this song, I would like if you really want to live what I expressed in my post, listen to it as well as read which will get you deeper into the story, thanks!
Not long ago I ran into an old man who was selling certain crafts in a busy square in my state Táchira / Venezuela, I was with a friend and decided to buy one of these which we had found very interesting.
Once we did this man thanked us in a somewhat peculiar way and to our surprise he asked us to sit down and talk to him about something, for us it was very strange to hear that, but we decided to sit there with him to talk for a while, After all, we had a lot of free time and a lot of curiosity about what he would tell us!
He began to tell us a little of his story, that as a child his family was very poor and he had to resort to committing criminal acts in order to help his mother and sister because his father had left once he knew that his mother was pregnant .
When he was 16 years old his mother died of a disease that was deteriorating his lungs and they did not have enough money to pay for the medicines, his mother always told him that he was great so that he would not feel bad knowing that I could help her and make a madness to save her.
2 months after the death of his mother, he loses his little sister, only 10 years old, who was run over by two young people who were driving while intoxicated, this completely devastated him.
He told us that after these events he fell into the world of drugs, becoming addicted to the famous heroine which was very difficult to afford but did the impossible to get it, so he got into big trouble or it would take days without food, this is never It was missing.
After 10 years of wandering around the city, leading a life of drugs, alcohol and bad decisions, with 26 years of age, suffering from an overdose and having been on the verge of death, decided to take a better path.
She says that she enrolled in an anti-drug aid group, started working, went to church every Sunday and started a new path; He met the one he remembers today as the love of his life and had a girl whom I call Victoria, because for him it was a victory to have left that whole world and always keep that in mind and never let his daughter go through the same .
And so it was, for 18 years I lead a straight and loving life with his wife and daughter, everything was perfect for him, his daughter had begun to study medicine career which with much effort paid, had a great future ahead of us He said with a smile on his face, he could not ask for more, but all that would change on his daughter's 19th birthday ...
When we arrived at this part we just heard her voice break down little by little and her eyes immediately got wet, she told us that her daughter had gone out with some friends to celebrate everything well, they were all happy they had had a nice dinner before that she decided to go out with her friends, she told us that the night for him was one of the most beautiful she had ever seen.
But at about 3:00 a.m. they received a call, told us that once he heard the words spoken by the police, he simply dropped the phone and sat on his bed, standing motionless, unable to say a word while his wife I watched
She was very scared telling him what happened? Tell me that Victoria is fine, he just let go in tears and said: Our little girl left us love, she left us ...
Victoria had suffered a serious car accident in which she and two friends who accompanied her died. He told us that he felt that his world had gone down again, that he had no more reasons to live and he began what for him was the worst stage of his life.
He tells us that he fell back into drugs, which led him to lose his marriage, his house, his belongings and a suicide attempt which nowadays affirms that the voice of his daughter in his head telling him that he loved him was what that impelled him in the end not to do it.
Today I leave permanently according to the drugs, attends the church in a very constant way and has won the appreciation of many people in their craft sales activity, tells us that he feels anxious to be able to meet again with his daughter, mother and sister in heaven, but who are not in a hurry because they want to fulfill their purpose on earth first.
I decided to ask him what was that purpose, to which he replied: To help to forge better people for this world, that young people today do not make the same mistakes that I made, that we all learn that once that we hit bottom ... ONLY RISES TO LIFT UP.
