I guess the more you want something is greater the anxiety and despair because that much desired does not come.
Thus, at the end of last year I was finally able to realize my dream of traveling on a road in the United States, and I did it with the people I love most in this world, my wife and my daughters.
It turned out as I had hoped because it was not an ecstatic experience, yet enjoy it precisely because the anxiety of doing was not with me, had stayed in Mexico. The three hour trip from Eagle Pass, TX to Laredo, TX was quiet, beautiful and relaxing, as long as I not enjoyed traveling by road.
Going finding American ranches and small towns made me love more U.S., see their organization, cleaning and some of their culture was amazing. The climax was when we reached the Interstate 35, it was as fully enter the modern U.S. and the first world, for a moment I felt in a movie of the future.
Now, while I am writing these lines the recall is magnified and embellished, I think because of that lack of anxiety with which I travel, also I see some of the pictures I took and my heart is filled with joy. Finally I can exclaim full of joy-I made it!
Here we are in a small town called Catarina, TX. The name is very similar to the name of my daughter who appears in the picture, how awesome is that!
