It was my grandmother who taught me to listen to the song of the birds. Throw her eyes I learned to contemplate those little birds and to perceive what made them so special. Together we heard the blackbird sing among the rumble of the city that was slowly awakening, trying to guess where the bird was. Grandma was my best teacher: she taught me all the secrets of nature, the magic of flowers, the spirit of monarch butterfliesâ€¦ For this reason, even if she is now gone, she will live in me through the song of nature.

Fue la abuela la que me enseÃ±Ã³ a escuchar el canto de las aves. Sus ojos me enseÃ±aron a contemplar esos pequeÃ±os pÃ¡jaros y a observar aquello que los hacÃa tan especiales. Juntas escuchÃ¡bamos al mirlo cantar entre los murmullos de la ciudad que se despertaba, intentado adivinar dÃ³nde se encontraba. La abuela era mi mejor maestra: me enseÃ±aba todos los secretos de la naturaleza, la magia de las flores, el aliento de las monarcasâ€¦ Por eso, aunque ella ya no estÃ©, vivirÃ¡ en mÃ a travÃ©s del canto de la naturaleza.
