Hola hivers/ Hello Hivers


Desde pequeño, como todo niño normal pensé que la vida solamente giraba entorno a divertirse y la escuela. Ese es el mundo en que vive todo niño.
Y nuestros padres nos dan todo lo que necesitamos. Pero muchas veces no nos damos cuenta de los sacrificios que ellos hacen para darnos lo necesario como es: el alimento, la ropa y una buena educación.

Since I was a little boy, like any normal child I thought that life only revolved around having fun and school. That's the world every child lives in.
And our parents give us everything we need. But many times we don't realize the sacrifices they make to give us what we need such as food, clothes and a good education.

En mi caso tuve que descubrir que la realidad era otra y fue cuando un día que llegue a la casa y yo estaba acostumbrado que al llegar a las 6pm, mi madre me recibía con la cena.
Por lo general, nuestras típicas comidas son la arepa o bollitos hechos con harina de maíz y su respectivo relleno que podía ser queso, huevos, etc.
Pero ese día mi sorpresa fue que mi madre me sirvió una arepa sola sin relleno y ni siquiera no había una taza con café para poder comerla.
Y le pregunté a mi madre ¿Dónde estaba el relleno? Ella me explica que no había porque mi padre tenía 3 meses sin trabajo. Hasta ese día yo creí que la comida o las cosas que nos daba papá se las regalaban y me costó mucho tratar de comerme la arepa, pase 30min, ya que era la primera vez que nos tocaba comer una arepa sin relleno. Eso me hizo meditar en la realidad de la vida y que hay que trabajar para obtener las cosas necesarias y fue cuando mi padre consiguió un tigrito, ósea, que no es un trabajo fijo y fué cuando me ofrecí para ayudarlo para que ahorrará los gastos de pagarle a un ayudante.

In my case I had to discover that the reality was different and it was when I arrived home one day and I was used to that when I arrived at 6pm, my mother would welcome me with dinner.
Usually, our typical meals are the arepa or rolls made with corn flour and their respective filling that could be cheese, eggs, etc..
But that day my surprise was that my mother served me an arepa alone without filling and there was not even a cup of coffee to eat it.
And I asked my mother where was the filling? She explained that there was none because my father was out of work for 3 months. Until that day I thought that the food or the things that my father gave us were given to him as a gift and I had a hard time trying to eat the arepa, I spent 30 minutes, since it was the first time that we had to eat an arepa without filling. That made me meditate on the reality of life and that you have to work to get the necessary things and that was when my father got a tigrito, that is, it is not a steady job and that was when I offered to help him to save the cost of paying an assistant.

Mi padre se dedicó a enseñarme las cosas básicas de construcción como manejar la cuchara, llana y cepillo.
Al principio se me hizo muy difícil y recuerdo que mi padre me explico cómo se hacia y me dijo: "Te voy a dejar solo y se que tú vas a procurar hacer lo mejor posible, él me explico que cuando uno está comenzando o aprendiendo cualquier trabajo uno se pone nervioso cuando está el patrón cerca.
Y las cosas les salen mal eso es por falta de experiencia.
Pero una vez que uno logra dominar el trabajo se siente más confiado y más bien quiere que su jefe vea su progreso y lo bien que trabaja y ese fue mi caso". Solo teniendo 12 años. Aunque no deje los estudios aproveche en seguir aprendiendo con mi padre en su trabajo. Parecía que la vida nos obliga hacer algo o tomar decisiones por ser la única salida o alternativa.
Yo no me arrepiento de este legado que me dejó mi padre. Pienso que esto nos acerca más a nuestro creador porque la albañilería es un arte que nos permite crear cosas con nuestras manos o corregir cosas que están dañadas y aunque al principio eso no era lo que tenía en mente para mi futuro estoy muy feliz con mi trabajo y es algo que me gusta hacer. Y lo que he notado es que pareciera que está herencia la tuviéramos en la sangre porque cuando nuestro hijo tenía apenas un 1año ya sabía manejar la cuchara y mezclar cemento en un tobo.

My father dedicated himself to teaching me the basics of construction such as how to handle the spoon, trowel and planer.
At the beginning it was very difficult for me and I remember my father explained to me how to do it and he told me: "I am going to leave you alone and I know that you are going to try to do your best, he explained to me that when you are starting or learning any job you get nervous when the boss is around.
And things go wrong, that's because of lack of experience.
But once you master the job you feel more confident and want your boss to see your progress and how well you are working and that was the case for me. I was only 12 years old. Although I didn't drop out of school, I took advantage of the opportunity to continue learning with my father in his job. It seemed that life forces us to do something or make decisions because it is the only way out or alternative.
I do not regret this legacy that my father left me. I think this brings us closer to our creator because masonry is an art that allows us to create things with our hands or correct things that are damaged and although at first that was not what I had in mind for my future I am very happy with my work and it is something I like to do. And what I have noticed is that it seems that this heritage is in our blood because when our son was only 1 year old he already knew how to handle the spoon and mix cement in a bucket.

El consejo que puedo dar en esta bella comunidad de hive es que debemos mostrarle a nuestros hijos el valor de las cosas y que si queremos tener algo en la vida tenemos que trabajar por ello.
Con esto no quiero decir que debemos explotar a nuestros hijos y mandarlos a trabajar a temprana edad para que tengas sus cosas, No! Esa no es la intención, nuestro propósito es mostrarle la importancia de aprender algo para que puedan defenderse en el futuro.
Mi bebé con sus casi 3 años le gusta jugar con mis herramientas, cómo la cuchara, el martillo, etc. También le gusta ayudarme cuando trabajo en una reparación de la casa.
Cuando sea grande quiero enseñarle está profesión pero nuestro deseo como padres es que aprenda de todo un poco.

The advice I can give in this beautiful hive community is that we should show our children the value of things and that if we want to have something in life we have to work for it.
By this I don't mean that we should exploit our children and send them to work at an early age so that you can have your things, No! That is not the intention, our purpose is to show them the importance of learning something so that they can defend themselves in the future.
My almost 3 year old baby likes to play with my tools, like the spoon, the hammer, etc. He also likes to help me when I work on repairs around the house.
When he grows up I want to teach him this profession but our wish as parents is that he learns a little bit of everything.

Learning to appreciate work and know that we have to work hard to get what we want is something parents should teach children, I agree. Many grow up having everything in life and they have major difficulties adapting to life when they are adults.
