I am from the headphones that blast beats and lyrics in my ear inviting me to zone out of reality
From the millions of scenarios made in my head all inspired by all fiction books I read
I am from the table in our kitchen that holds many great laughs and memories
I am from the soft and creamy enchiladas that explodes once it is in my mouth
From the warrior and inspiration of my family that came to america and gave me everything away to give us a better life
I am from the adrenaline flowing throughout our veins due to us rushing to go from house to house on christmas rush
I am from a teenage, single mom who works all day to provide for us all and always motivates me to do better
From a person that has been there since day one and has been one of the best moms I have met
I am from the starbucks drink that makes me content and the amazing movie nights with all of us squished together on the couch
I am from “ you are the best daughter I have ever had!”, when I am the only daughter she has
From the blinding lights and the crazy tall buildings that make us humans feel like ants- the Las Vegas Strip
I am from the amazing vibe of energy and honesty that my friends give off
From the dream to have a great job that I love doing and to build my dream house- to live the life my mom couldn’t
I am Alexia Montes
