I might have to – cough, cough – mention it in my query letters!"<br /><br />And this was profound:<br /><br />"But more than land – which is just the thing we stand on – I care about people, and I don’t make distinctions about who to care for based on geography."<br /><br />Nice to see the good getting great!

I like your thoughts on citizenship. Having relocated from Cuba to the UK almost 16 years ago I feel in a similar vein to you, although for me London is home now. So, when I go back to Havana where I was born and where I grew up, I now say that I'm going home from home.:-)<br /><br />Greetings from London.A Cuban In Londonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16423293358605007539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573472801176728225.post-36950078348762547732013-08-03T15:12:27.233-07:002013-08-03T15:12:27.233-07:00Thanks, Cat!
