others are always an inspiration. Many times, the voice of my mom comes to me when I am in the middle of a difficult situation. For instance, I always think about the importance of surrounding myself with positive people. Growing up my mom would tell me, “Dime con quién andas, y te diré quién eres”. Translated, this means “Tell me whom you hang out with, and I will tell you who you are”. This phrase still holds a very special place in my heart. When I became a mother, I made sure to instill this notion into my child's life as well. The importance of surrounding yourself with positive people and those who reflect your inner self is key. Thanks, mom! Or should I say, ¡Gracias mamá!
