This blog is special, because today I just want to thank all of you who have participated in our solidarity campaign LA LITERATURA ALIMENTA. We set ourselves a challenge, which was to collect 3000 euros, for El Banc Dels Aliments, which due to the situation caused by covid19 is overflowing with families who come to them for help. Families that, before the pandemic, already needed it and this huge health and economic crisis is showing us that the people who suffer the most are always the same, the ones at the bottom of the system, the workers, those who are fighting everyday to keep going.

That’s why it makes a lot of sense to do this campaign every year, it’s been seven years since we started it, because there are always people who need this support, and our only goal was and has always been to HELP those who need it the most. I thought that a big collective like the literary one could do it, that once a year we could think about the others, but we just needed someone to organize it and I jumped into the pool. It’s true that when you start a solidarity campaign you have to dedicate a lot of time to it, there are a lot of hours and uncomfortable moments asking people to participate, to help, to scratch their pockets, and that’s not easy. My SB team and I have invested a lot of time to reach the goal, but it has been worth it. The satisfaction of knowing that this money will be able to give some light to families who are suffering, for me has a value that I cannot express in words. There are people who have even asked me what I gain from this, and they do not believe that what I gain is the satisfaction of being able to help others.

This weekend has been magical, the reactions of the friends who helped have been extraordinary, and although we were quite far from the challenge in one day, we managed to complete it. The chain of good people got going and with a little bit of everyone, we did a lot. And that is how I understand life. Every time I want to be closer to those who understand it as I do, and I have realized that I have chosen well the people who are around me. By helping each other we can achieve everything because at the end unity is strength. For most of us it may seem easy to help, but if we think about it, it harder than we think. And although we brag about being supportive and thinking about others, making a firm step and roll up our sleeves to put the work, costs. Luckily there are always engines of positive energy, of real energy, that make good things possible and for that reason, I am very grateful to all of you who, after my THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Luckily there are always engines of positive energy, of real energy, that make good things possible and for that reason, I am very grateful to all of you who, after my messages, have wanted to help me achieve this goal. Thanks to all of you, with this common challenge, many children will have a hot plate on the table this November and December. And is there something more important than that? Yes, there is because everyone should always have food on their table. That is why I do not give up, and I will continue feeding this campaign with more strength every year.

And one last note for those who are most confused: the challenge ends this November 15th and although it has already been accomplished, we can still raise the mark, the more we collect, the more we will have to help others.

So, my blog’s recommendation for today is to go to https://www.migranodearena.org/reto/la-literatura-alimenta and make the last donations for these families. In return you will receive our ebook “El hogar de las emociones”, with nine stories that nine of our authors gave us for the cause where they explain nine emotions that help us to be the best that we can be in this life wich is what my parents have taught me, A GOOD PERSON.

THANK YOU.
