With my fondest devotion to my beloved and wonderful son, Matthieu, who is the light of my life.
Dear Carm´ela, you came into my life like a magical book full of surprises and joy. In this quest I discovered the ways of love, the sunflower faces the sun and the shadows fall behind it, letting me know the importance of always selecting the path towards enlightenment. One makes the possible and God makes the impossible. These two things, attitude and faith, are fundamental in the search for happiness. The book is meant to write down memories inside your heart. All sorts of thoughts can be selected to take you to a state of enjoyment. Well here is our book and there are already a lot of things in it and it is not yet full. Beyond these, you will find my gratitude and love that I have for you.
