Rain of Gold

by Victor Villaseñor

the most important things in life seem to come to us like, well, in a gift, a vision, a special knowledge so deep inside us that we actually know things before we even know them.”

Men do not tell me what to think or how to live anymore. I think and live as I, a woman, see the world around me, and that’s that!

he was a male and scared of the unknown;

you are not to complain or question who you are, but instead, grow, reaching for the light that’s inside you.

“My world isn’t based on right and wrong, mi hijito. It’s based on love and doing whatever a mother needs to get done to survive.

The real battles of life are won by planning, thinking and hard work, having the confidence not to panic into violence but, instead, to hold steady as a rock and keep working

when you have nothing, you have nothing to lose,

“life only has the value that we place on it,

You need complete honesty to be outside of the law,

words, unless you truly make peace inside your immortal soul, and calm all this hateful vengeance that you carry like a cemetery of death inside your heart, then this love you feel for Lupe will not be enough to sustain you even one year.”

“being right. That’s the first temptation the devil always uses.”

For this is God’s great plan, that people rise up beyond their personal hatreds, here, right now, in this new land where so many different people with so many different bloods have come to join together and that we recognize we are all the children of God! Every one of us!

can get above your personal disappointments and see the good in your own people and make peace here within yourself

To fear death is to insult life!”
