Thank you to all the BB readers for your kind expressions of concern. I am down but not out, and improving each day.... Love you all, even the Millies and Willies.
BIG thanks to my friend DD for holding down the fort.....Paz, Chivis
Each year I am given hundreds of "original art" Christmas cards made for me by the foundation children I work with. What is striking to me, is the messages that are written on almost every card. The same theme; no more bad guys, no more narcos, Zetas (or whatever cartel dominates their area) no more death of innocents, kidnappings, etc. A perspective by children who live in places of violence.
They wish for peace, they wish for children that are sick to receive health, children who are "poor" to receive a gift. They look beyond themselves, although they themselves are poor, I work only with impoverished, marginalized and/or disabled children.
Not one card in 11 years has ever wished for a toy, or gift for themselves.
No lessons needed for these children, they have mastered the meaning of Christmas
Hold it Up, Chivis! ... Paz.
ReplyDeleteIs that chivis????
ReplyDelete@11:32 Yes, that is our Grand Lady.
DeleteIt's the third pic of her we see (although I once mistakenly thought I had seen a 3rd which would make this one the 4th)
DeleteThis is the this is the 3rd picture, all of them because I asked, you may think I am bragging, and, yes I am...
Delete--the other pic is Claudia Ochoa...

DeleteI asked Chivis a while back and she said it was another BB contributor's profile pic (face was covered) that mistook as hers.
Simon esa es mi vieja y que :)
DeleteYes, it is me a selfie I took last month on thanksgiving. There were two others one I am wearing a Borderland Beat Cap and another on a post I wrote announcing I am no longer going to post and just remain administrator for BB...Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.

ReplyDeleteFeliz Navidad Chivis, Thank you so much for all you've done to help us understand what's going on in Mexico. When my friends were carjacked on cuoto just out of Mazatlan, I discovered Borderland Beat. I choose to not to have the blinders on and can thus share with Mexicans and other North Americans what I've learned. I have the greatest respect and admiration for what you've accomplished.
ReplyDeleteFeliz navidad a ti Chivis y todos Los tuyos y todos en BB...y Como dicen Los tucanes k me castigue dios pero contigo.....
ReplyDeleteThank you for everything Chivis and all the people that make BB what it is. Your hard work and dedication is really appreciated.
