I celebrated my Birthday in the most meaningful way (Mexico City)

  • We avoided Mexico City for a long time.
    “It’s dangerous” “They rob people there” “Chilangos are scammers” .. that’s what we often heard. We thought “we don’t need to experience Mexico City” “it’s just a big, busy city”
    We were wrong about CDMX. We did need to experience this city. And it’s so much more than we realized.
    Today we are celebrating Jenny's 30th Birthday in Polanco Mexico city.

    Happy Birthday Jenny. You and the cradle robber (lol) are fun to watch; always bringing out the best in each other and open to experiencing new things. Mr. Jenny is very lucky to have such an intelligent, beautiful, fit woman (and I guess ur lucky too). The body gets older, but as long as you stay fit, the mind will never feel old (in 20+ years this will make more sense). Thanks for the great video.

    Both books I would recommend are "classics" - Don Quixote a Novel by Miguel de Cervantes (1605) and Candide a Novel by Voltaire (1759). Both books had me laughing out loud as I read them, the humor is hundreds of years old and remains relevant to this day.

    Books about Mexico will help understand more why we're the way we are. If you keep reading you will find out the lies that Mexican government came out with to form an ideology that with struggle to understand and it has even shaped the ideology of Mexicans and other citizens in the US. This has to do with the myth that is Latin America. Yes, this is very difficult understand but this is just myth.
    1. there is not a Latin race.
    2. Mesoamericans were the first indigenous group in the continent, the second group named norte chicos settled in what is Peru today so even the indigenous of the american continent were of different race. So we had little in common with South America and Centro America. After Centro America left the Mexican empire, they took a lot of European and African people not to mention that most of Mayan fled northern Guatemala to escape the Spaniards. So these Central American countries are very diverse and rich in culture.
    3. North America is a geographic region and Latin America is not based in geography it's made up by countries that speak Spanish or Portuguese. The basic definition of latin countries is to speak a language derive from the Latin among them Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese.etc However, Latin America leaves out French speaking countries and regions in the America continent. For example, the French Guaina, Suriname, Guiana, the Quebec region in Canada, Haiti and 100s of little islands in the Caribbean sea. Why? Because it was France which came out with the term Latin America in an effort to brain washed Mexican politicians and conquer Mexico. Yes, in fact it was Napoleon III, who wanted to separate the US from Mexico and keep Mexico as their territory but they couldn't conquer Mexico. Mexico and the rest of the continent kept the ideology of Latin America after the French were defeated but now they decided to exclude all French speaking countries or French colonies from the dream called "latin america" or brotherhood that doesn't exist.
    So Latin America is just a group of countries that do not really have anything positive in common only 2 things. One that Spanish is widely spoken and two that we had a history being conquered. That is all. In the US, all Spanish speakers are treaty as hispanic another mistake or as Latinos. Latin American countries are really a mix of many races. Living in the US as a Mexican, I don't think that we should be called Hispanics or Latinos under the hood we're all different people depending on the nationality. But then again this lie is being sold everyday by the spanish language TV in the US in order to sell.....

      Excellent mini-essay!!👏🏼 lol seriously all of this is so important to be aware of thanks for writing it. These terms were created for political gain and ended up causing a lot of identity crisis issues. It’s important to understand the history and the WHY of things

    you need to be reading the Bible and not that mindless garbage! Jesus will judge us all according to our works!

      The Bible was written by men whose main objective was to create an obedient society. There are some nice stories in there. But in the end, people will interpret its intentions in ways that are convenient to them. So I don’t think it matters whether I read it or not. Jesus is welcome to judge me according to my actions.
