    About this ebook

    Cuando sueñas, cada imagen y cada sentimiento es una memoria de ti mismo. "Recuerdos" es una colección de recuerdos, directamente de mis diarios de los años 1997 – 2007. Por supuesto, cada recuerdo cambia de año a año tal como aumentamos nuestra propia sabiduría. Con suerte, cada recuerdo hablara de una belleza verdadera y trascendental. Los recuerdos son el arte del alma.

      El Baúl

      Mi abuela tenía un conjunto baúles en su dormitorio.

      Eran unos de esos antiguos baúles que la gente usaba en viajes largos.

      El interior era madera de cedro. El exterior era una combinación de cuero y clavos y hebillas de cobre. No tengo idea cuánto tiempo habían estado en la familia. Creo que esos baúles pudieron haber sido los mismos que mi bisabuela llevo con ella en su viaje al norte en los años 1920s.

      Aunque eran dos, siempre se les refería como una unidad propia. El baúl contenía la ropa y joyas buenas. Y documentos importantes - como los papeles de mi confirmación, las actas de nacimiento y cosas así. También guardaba sus fotografías allí. Trozos congelados de una vida que nunca viví y de personas que nunca conocí, pero cuya imagen se hizo tan familiar que con el tiempo se hizo algo íntimo, hasta el punto de que esas mismas imágenes se han integrado en mi psique.

      Esa fue la residencia oficial de sus cosas.

      La casa era de mi abuelo y todo en ella era propiedad del el, según él, incluyendo la ropa que ella llevaba puesta. A veces el hizo el punto para aclarar este hecho con cualquier persona que escuchaba. Y a ella le daba de mas, por ella si él quisiera podría reclamar la totalidad del Nuevo Mundo, pero lo que estaba dentro del baúl eran sus cosas. Ni de él ni de nadie más.

      En esos entonces, yo era la sombra de mi abuelita, cuando con adoración la seguía a dondequiera que iba. Cuando
