Mi abuelo fue como muchos hombres que vivían en los años 60 en los estados del interior de Venezuela, esos que decidieron dejar sus hogares para irse al centro del país a buscar trabajo para mantener sus grandes familias. Esto trajo como consecuencia que estuvieran muy poco tiempo en la vida de sus hijos mientras crecían. Sí, se veían una semana o poco más en cada fiesta, o cada pequeña vacación, pero no estaban en el día a día. 

Mi abuelito estuvo durante más de 30 años viviendo esa situación, trabajando en una empresa para hacer vidrios en Maracay y viajando dos o tres veces al año a Bejucal, la tierra que lo había visto nacer en el Estado Sucre.

Allá dejó a sus muchachos, tres niños y tres niñas, más tres o cuatro sobrinos a los que también criaba porque así era la familia en esa Venezuela.  

En el año 90, mi papá, que ya estaba establecido en ese momento, le pidió que regresara a casa, ya todos estaban encaminados y podrían hacerse cargo de sus vidas, por lo que abuelo, no sin pelear primero, regreso a casa justo a tiempo para mi nacimiento. 

Él dijo que cuando me vió ya no quiso estar en otro lugar lejos de mi. Y es una cosa curiosa, a pesar de no haber podido estar en el diario de sus hijos, luchó para estar en la vida diaria de sus seis nietas.

Abuelo nos contaba cuentos en las noches de fines de semana, hacía círculos con las sillas y cuando el sol se empezaba a esconder por las montañas, nos relataba cuentos viejos. No los contaba completo, lo hacía por partes, cómo Sherezade, nos dejaba en vilo, para el día siguiente tener a su público de ojos grandes expectantes. 

De día jugaba con nosotras, hacía excursiones por la hacienda y por la montaña que quedaba detrás. Todas en fila india, con trenzas hasta la cintura llenas de flores que él mismo entretejía en nuestro cabello cuando nos peinaba.

Hablaba de la vida, de la tierra, de las plantas y sus beneficios, silbaba y cantaba mucho. Mi abuelo era arte, era sentimiento y eso nos enseñó. 

No quedó quebrada en Bejucal en la que no remojamos los pies, y no quedó mata de mango sin probar.

Abuelo era desafiante, no le temía a las amenazas de mi abuela, que siempre estaba atenta de que los juegos no se salieran de control y abuelo la retaba y nos alentaba a montarnos en las matas de ciruela del patio y nos mecía en las ramas para nuestra diversión. 

Era un soñador, le encantaba la ciencia y sus misterios y rebatía con argumentos sólidos a cualquiera que le hablara de religión, porque su Dios estaba en todas partes y los extraterrestres no eran más que ángeles. Anhelaba estar a tiempo para ver los viajes a la velocidad de la luz y casas en la luna.  

Fue un aventurero, algo egoísta con nuestra atención, no nos dejó para nadie más, los días en "Casa Vieja" eran así, llenas de juegos y educación de día a noche.

El 18 de diciembre del año 2014, dejó de luchar. Cumplió su palabra de quedarse conmigo hasta obtener el título de ingeniero, porque según su visión, era yo capaz de olvidarme de ese detalle, y él no podía permitir que su primera nieta le hiciera ese desaire. 

A partir de ese día mi corazón siempre va un poco roto, él estaba tan metido en mi vida diaria, que no tenerlo a la distancia de una llamada con sus chistes malos, y sus canciones improvisadas, es un duro recordatorio de que el tiempo pasa. 

Hoy como todos los días me acordé de él al despertar y me sentí con fuerzas para contarles de mi viejito porque no quiero olvidar y qué mejor forma que dejarlo aquí en Hive para hacerlo eterno. 

Les mando un abrazo apretado y espero que tengan una feliz semana.

<CENTER>***My grandfather's story. Not to forget***</CENTER>

<CENTER>![jpg_20230201_200239_0000.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/andricklp/48J9ykz1SmFpRh5umpBWJ3FcDpTvWirQSkvVJjv1YWd13j1e8hVQgEGY5kSKdyDxMK.jpg)

My grandfather was like many men who lived in the 1960s in the interior states of Venezuela, those who decided to leave their homes to go to the center of the country to look for work to support their large families. This resulted in very little time in their children's lives while they were growing up. Yes, they would see each other for a week or so on every holiday, or every little vacation, but they were not there on a day-to-day basis. 

My grandfather was for more than 30 years living that situation, working in a company to make glass in Maracay and traveling two or three times a year to Bejucal, the land that had seen him born in Sucre State. 

<Center>![FB_IMG_1675294717934.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/andricklp/Eq7Nu7rGXDNJ6LZra9o5ByCLcaXXMj2To16ThwhNdQU9nDVhvfyRrjunv9QU545tYZs.jpg)</Center>

There he left his children, three boys and three girls, plus three or four nephews who also raised because that was the family in that Venezuela.  

In the year 90, my dad, who was already established at that time, asked him to return home, they were all on their way and could take charge of their lives, so grandfather, not without a fight first, returned home just in time for my birth. 

He said that when he saw me he didn't want to be anywhere else away from me. And it's a funny thing, even though he couldn't be in his children's daily lives, he fought to be in the daily lives of his six granddaughters. 

<div class="pull-right">https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/andricklp/23tveDaa49K1ZB4NcbucEfVDG3hzXGcsHDTMUpiuJJqxHMuD5bCSkQQrCM4PhqkESSqzv.jpg

Grandpa would tell us stories on weekend nights, he would make circles with the chairs and when the sun started to hide in the mountains, he would tell us old stories. He did not tell them in full, he did it in parts, like Scheherazade, he would leave us in suspense, so that the next day he would have his audience with big eyes expectant. 

During the day he would play with us, he would go on excursions around the hacienda and the mountain behind it. All of us in single file, with braids down to our waists full of flowers that he would weave into our hair as he combed our hair.

He talked about life, the earth, plants and their benefits, he whistled and sang a lot. My grandfather was art, he was feeling and that is what he taught us. 

There was no creek in Bejucal in which we did not soak our feet, and there was no mango tree without tasting it. 


<div class="pull-left">https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/andricklp/23xyQkuRmALe36sWmAuXWotFcLpLRmphsiytcroUAQuQZi2oU9VyRyWi5iX3d2S4CBYgg.png</div>

Grandfather was defiant, he was not afraid of my grandmother's threats, she was always watching to make sure the games did not get out of control and grandfather would challenge her and encourage us to ride on the plum bushes in the yard and swing us on the branches for our amusement. 

He was a dreamer, loved science and its mysteries and refuted with solid arguments anyone who talked to him about religion, because his God was everywhere and aliens were nothing but angels. He longed to be in time to see travel at the speed of light and houses on the moon.  

He was an adventurer, somewhat selfish with our attention, he left us for no one else, the days at "Old House" were like that, full of games and education from day to night.

December 18, 2014, he stopped fighting. He kept his word to stay with me until I got my engineering degree, because according to his vision, I was capable of forgetting that detail, and he could not allow his first granddaughter to do him that slight. 

From that day on my heart always goes a little broken, he was so involved in my daily life, that not having him within calling distance with his bad jokes, and his impromptu songs, is a harsh reminder that time passes. 

Today like every day I remembered him when I woke up and I felt strong enough to tell you about my old man because I don't want to forget and what better than to leave him here in Hive to make it eternal. 


I send you a big hug and I hope you have a happy week.

Lamento mucho tu pérdida pero que afortunada fuiste de tenerle, abuelos así son un gran tesoro. 
Mi abuela también era muy especial para mi y aunque ya no está conmigo, su recuerdo siempre me acompañará.

Que linda forma de expresarte hacia tu abuelo. Las experiencias que has tenido a su lado son maravillosas, y por lo que veo, fue una persona trabajadora y extraordinaria. Ahora él te cuida desde lo alto de su luz, y te guía y te da muchas fuerzas. Es imposible olvidar a un ser querido aunque esté ausente... que linda manera de recordarlo ☺️.

Te envío un gran abrazo desde la distancia ⭐.
