When defining or categorizing an action, an opinion, a task or just a memory, you reflect on the initial step, the most challenging, the important one, the oldest ....... the first one !! We have and view a list of comparisons everyday, real success is to deal with "number one" !!
Books on management deal extensively with priorities. The business of sports is tied to the best result. Politicians know their initial mission is to raise funds, not laws to be authored or passed. Selecting our course is most of the time selfish. Sometimes forced. The obvious for some is challenged by others.
Not all "Firsts" have to be serious. Memory of relationships come forward ......
"Ay mi hijita .... ese primer enamorado no servia !!?? Era un vago,
y lo unico que hacia era parar en la bodega de la esquina .. "
y lo unico que hacia era parar en la bodega de la esquina .. "
How about that first trip, auto accident, movie, book, dog, friend or neighborhood. Drunk ... lost something .... first time you heard about it ..... so many firsts. How about the first memory of yourself? .... Uhmmmmm
I can pinpoint an occasion and frame it when I was 3 or 4 years old. I am standing in a internal ledge of this tall window at my grandmother Gertrudis house in San Isidro. I am with my sister Trudy.
We are just there, having a good time looking out.
My first song of memory is tied with my family in my fathers Ford Fairlane, going around "El túnel de La Herradura" more than once, and the radio going out. I did not know who the artist was, I like this later version ...
