Somos Primos "We are Cousins" August 2019
http://www.somosprimos.com/sp2019/spaug19/spaug19.htm
Dear Primos and Friends:
There are four remaining issues to be published of SomosPrimos.com. The
twenty years of monthly issues will be archived and available online
indefinitely. I invite you to be a part of it.
If you have never sent an article, please consider submitting a
personal, especially memorable, meaningful memory, an incident,
accident, or situation in your life or family, which greatly impacted
your life, perhaps changed your entire direction or attitudes towards
life.
The four remaining months are seasonal and hopefully will stir up some
especially sweet stories.
SEPTEMBER: School, friends, new experiences, favorite teacher/Subjects,
college, trade, hobbies, jobs.
OCTOBER: Halloween, bon fires, wind, kites, spooky, scary, near-misses,
parties, camping,sports.
NOVEMBER: Dia de los Muertos,Thanksgiving, both hinge on the joy and
importance of familia reunions.
DECEMBER: Christmas gratitude for a past and rich life shared with
marvelous friends and family.
In this issue, under Heritage Project, Chapter 20 of my life story, I
share one of my most unusual life stories.
The true account of an angelic being who saved my life. I felt the
actual grip, the physical touch of his large hands on my shoulders,
guiding and preparing me for a circumstance, which was about to happen.
With the exception of my husband, this is the first time I have shared
this experience.
With all my religious exploring, I had come to believe that an awesome
Godly power pervades the universe, but what I learned even more
important was that the great Creator-God knows and loves each one of us
individually, and HE holds the future. HE does not expect us to know
and understand everything, just to trust that HE does.
If you want to be part of the Somos Primos collection of writings,
please send your submissions as soon as possible. The December issue
will be compiled in November. In order to get the December issue out
before Thanksgiving, my target, I will not be able to accept any
submissions after November 1st.
Somos Primos has been quite a adventure. Through your personal stories
and articles, I am sure Somos Primos readers have been able to relate
with more understanding to our Spanish heritage and with more compassion
to the cultural diversity of our nation It has been a joy.
