Mom

Remembering her on her day of birth

Todays’ message is in this modern bottle we call a video. My mom had a life that is, well, historical. Because of her DNA, and the circumstances of her childhood. Add into that mix, her Puerto Rican heritage, which comes with an Iberian heritage. Well, there is soooo much history there, that goes way, way back. Let’s just say that Mom gave me more than a clump of DNA. It is what’s in back of that chemistry that covers much ground. From Greeks to Tainos, Romans to Berbers, and an African from Nigeria, an Irish individual, plus someone from Mexico, I mean what a story, eh?

Mom gave me a lot of material to work with. Thanks Mom. Hope to see you one day, on the other side.
