Mexico is not an easy country to leave behind, and I pray my son will some day get to know the nation in which he was born. I hope he will be proud of the fact that he was born in Morelos, the heart of Mexico, and the land of Emiliano Zapata. I’ll tell him about the little town of Jiutepec with its 200 yr. old church, our mariachi friends, the insane amount of fireworks and holidays that are celebrated around here, the food we’ve eaten and the things we’ve seen. But I’ll tell him that what makes Mexico unforgettable is the big-hearted nature of its people. I hope that as the world climate changes the warmth of this country stays the same.
