[ESP-ING] Celebrando a mi primo

We just celebrated my cousin's birthday. Two years ago, he had a serious heart attack, but thank God everything turned out well and he came back to life. Today he turned 49, and I'm happy for him because he's celebrating life. We grew up together like brothers, even though we were first cousins.

It's not that we lived in the same house, but we did share the same yard, haha, one of those houses where there are two on the same lot. And wow, we used to fight to the death. I really don't know how we could fight so much and over anything, but now as adults, it's different. He is happy with his family, and I'm glad to see him happy. To me, he is more than a cousin; he is my brother.

He loves to barbecue, and here we were sharing a delicious barbecue and his cake, which couldn't be left out. Life always takes unexpected turns, which is why we have to do our best and give our best so that life rewards us. I am very happy to be able to share and celebrate his life.

My cousin has always been close to the family and was one of those cousins who looked after his grandmothers and aunts. I remember that he loved my mother very much and she loved him, because she saw him grow up. and although there were fights, there was also laughter and good times. When he was sick, I remember being very scared and needing to see him to tell him how much I loved him. They let me in, and I didn't miss that opportunity to tell him that and also pray for his healing, which was the most important thing. God gave him another chance, and I know he will make the most of it alongside his family.

Acabamos de celebrar la vida de mi primo hermano, hace dos años atrás tuvo un fuerte incidente de un infarto y gracias a Dios todo salio bien y volvió a la vida, hoy cumplía sus 49 años y estoy feliz por él ya que está celebrando la vida, nosotros nos criamos juntos como hermanos, aunque éramos primos hermanos.

No es que vivíamos en la misma casa pero si en el mismo patio jejej, esas casas que hay dos en un mismo terreno, y waoo nosotros peleábamos a morir, de verdad no sé como podíamos pelear tanto y por cualquier cosa, pero ahora de adultos es otra cosa, el es feliz con su familia y me alegra verlo feliz, para mi es más que primo mi hermano.

A él le encanta hacer parrillas y bueno aquí estábamos compartiendo con una deliciosa parrilla y su torta que no podía faltar, la vida siempre da vueltas y por eso hay que hacer lo mejor y dar lo mejor para que la vida nos retribuye, me alegra mucho poder compartir y celebrar su vida.

Mi primo siempre ha sido familiar y ha sido de esos primos que estaba pendiente de sus abuelas, tías, recuerdo que el quizo mucho a mi madre y ella a él, pues lo vio crecer, y aunque si hubieron peleas también hubieron risas y tiempos buenos, cuando el enfermo recuerdo que me asuste mucho y tenía que verlo para decirle lo mucho que lo quería y me dejaron pasar y no perdí esa oportunidad de decirle eso, y además orar por su sanidad que era lo más importante, Dios le dio otra oportunidad y se que la va a aprovechar al lado de su familia.
