Family, the place where we first smiled.
The tree with our roots that ties us tightly to yesterday, makes us feel secure in the present and grows healthy branches of tomorrow.
The country that faces our war and offers us peace.
Family, the school that taught us respect, love, smiles, wiped our tears, patience, perseverance, all values.
The place of the roots of yesterday, the trunk of today and the branches of tomorrow, the tree where we receive the oxygen of life.
Keep it clean, water it carefully, give it light, take oxygen from it, exchange the breath.
