This story show the effort that the great champions had to do to stay in the place that they are nowadays. With and without luck in much of the races he had the skill to improve and be the better. Maybe his life and his hungry of victory should be taken by people who want to be the best.. only the best.

My Memorable Summer

My best summer in my life was in the 1994, i think this is the most difficult holiday to forgot because a lot of good things happened but in the other hand were not so good.
I travelled with a part of a family by car, the trip is difficult in parts to remember however it was fantastic. The most important thing that made this summer unforgettable was that in this travel this was the first time i knew the sea. I really enjoyed the water, the sand, the sun and all the things that you have around the beach. We spent the days swimming and playing beach sports with my cousins and sister... And in the cloudy days i remember fishing with my uncle.
And the thing that made the travel not so good was that in my favourite trip my dad was not with me...
However we made it enjoyable, because we passed the summer as a family and each one really love this journey...

This horrible things that happened in the past, should make us to reflexionate for dont make the same wrongs things in our present life and in the future of our kids.
The innocent people don´t have to pay for the mistakes or for the ambition of the others crazy people. A simple person can´t be a motive for hate.
