My father’s paper machines
He was just a kid and started to work with his father, with a dream on his head he had a future to decide on. Went to another city, far from his family, but the dream he had, didn’t let him stand still, even though it was not a simple thing. Started form having nothing, difficult times and nights full of loneliness, but he knew he could get something extraordinary. Hard work and perseverance is what makes a man grow someone said some years ago. My father has done it for many years, but maybe not in something many people use to do, but my father worked hard, persevered and went on. That is admirable, and everything has been devoted to the purchase of its paper machines, which to this day they mean more than any other achievement to him. Large and small machines, regardless of the noise they cause the only thing that cause my father is peacefulness and security on his soul and mind. A quietness that we all seek, but few of us find. These machines have and will accompany him through his life and through his tears. They have seen him pass any kind of battle, but also they have seen him in the peak. Began as a person transformed into a human and now into a king. He has struggled to surround himself with them, for him his best friends but for us maybe just machines. I think they have thought him what life means, because it may seem a simple task just to put them on and think they do everything on their own. But they have teach my father to see that there is no perfection in life, that we all need a repair from time to time and that we all fail in a time of our live. He also learned from them that we won’t live forever and that sometimes people replace us thinking somebody else will be better or just don’t believe anymore on us. Time passed by and my father got older just like his machines, I hope they don’t take him, ‘cause it seems they want to be with him. In his machines will remain his memory when he would not be here. But I’m quite sure of a thing I will go to my father’s machines and they’ll tell me everything about him.
