25 de mayo del 1810, empezaba a nacer el mejor pais!

Couple days before Argentina 200 anniversary I started writing a post, I thought to explain our anthem or debate some questions about Argentina, however any of both completely satisfied me so May 25th passed and I published nothing.

During such especial event, I had dinner with Joe, a friend from US who is almost Argentinean, and a friend from Argentina, Maia, who is married with an American actor. It was a very cool dinner in a funky Argentinean restaurant and after it I went with Maia to meet some others in a bar of Santa Monica. The manager was from Argentina so we had some good fernets, it was the same bar that I first went when I´ve came to US with the people from RESULTS.com ☺.

One of the Argentinians who was there, was a lawyer from San Isidro who left the country in 2006 and he hasn´t returned back.

He told me two things that stay printed in my mind. First he told me that in one moment of his life dreams turn to hope, so with only hope he decided to come to US. I told him that he was not counting the possibility to dreams to turn to reality, where he has to be a participant and not only a viewer however he told me that he was tiered. I told him that one of my dreams is to see Argentina big.

The second thing that he said was a difference between US and Argentina, he said that in US you need much more effort to do everyhting but none is going to take what you got, I think some people have lost part of what they got with the last crisis, however it was the first big crisis in 80 years. In Argentina you can receive a lot with less effort but you may not keep it all, which is going to be different I also told him.

Our anniversary of independence it is going to be on July 9th 2016. During last Tuesday we celebrated the beginning of the revolution, which took 6 years after Argentina became independent from Spain.

We are a young country yet, we´ll be big and I have no doubts that 200 years ago started the best country ever .
