“She is my purpose! Wandering along the pavement, Trying to find an agreement, Between my pragmatic mind and a romantic heart, And sometimes knowing not where to end and when to start, I let the wanderings continue, maybe forever, Because I am yet to reach a place called, nowhere, That infact is somewhere, But not in the vicinities of places known by me as here and there, So, I let myself love her for now, think of her for now, And believe in our love and its vow, And this revives my peace, maybe it does, Just for a moment, just for a while it does, Maybe it is in this moment I become oblivious to this place called nowhere, Because when I am with her, I just wish to be here, just here, And when she leaves, forever turns into never, and somewhere into nowhere, Then, though I am somewhere, I am still nowhere, still nowhere, So before seeking this place of bliss, Let me seek her and her kiss, Because it is then that everything assumes meaning and purpose, And it is then that my heart in the curiosity of my mind does find a worthwhile purpose!”

“«¿Es dura la maternidad?», me preguntaron hoy. Depende de tus expectativas: si pretendes que a los tres meses tu hijo duerma ocho horas de corrido, que se quede jugando solo en un corralito, que la lactancia fluya mágicamente, que se duerma en los brazos de cualquiera, que no tenga reflujo ni cólicos y que no llore mucho, entonces, sí, la maternidad es durísima.”

“Nunca te sientas mal porque una decisión sobre tu crianza moleste a otras persona. Tú no eres responsable de su felicidad, sino del bienestar de tus hijos, aunque eso implique distanciamientos, aunque implique dejar de frecuentar lugares, reuniones o personas.”

“Y mientras tanto yo trato de no dejarme arrastrar por la demanda inagotable de sus pequeños cuerpos, por la necesidad constante de ser su lugar seguro, por el anhelo puro de mi cercanía. Mientras crío ellos me crían a mí, me perdonan, me drenan, me cargan, me abrazan, me detestan, me aman, me suplican.”
