working at ranch ... the things we say when we are young & foolish!
.
When each one of us was born; my dear mother begins a photo album collecting photos-mementos known to me till recently. Each album contained many special things to my mother which now are passed on to yours truly…
When I saw Ricky’s album as collected by my mother; I could see a special love towards him perhaps due to the fact he was her last son. I always wonder what makes a parent collect so many small items on each sibling as if it was a treasure to pass on which I’m sure my family would like to keep though I’m not sure … Now, as the family history keeper; I look back with great fondness and admiration for each one of my siblings but especially for my mother who kept so many great mementos for us to enjoy. This is one of those rare photos of my brother Ricky; an energetic young man almost a workaholic as far back as I can remember.
Walk a mile in his-her boots I’ve said many times to my siblings making a point about prejudging anyone for any reason. My grandmother said it best: El pez por su propia boca muere. I can see now, the reasons for mom as well as the rest of the family to love Ricky as much as we all do; it’s a combination of factors none of which can actually be defined.
Taken quite a few years ago when we were all young and working even harder than we do today.
