Do you remember when you learned to brush your teeth? Do you remember who taught you how to tie your shoelaces? If you're as old as me, that may take you a while to recall those things. But the truth is that perhaps those are the little things that we forget, and as life goes on, our brains do those little things for us automatically.
But how important is that? And, how important are the other things that you've learned to do that contribute to a better life for you today?
For me, learning how to make tamales was very important. Not just because it's a staple in our culture, it was important because that experience got me closer to my mother, and it allowed me to look up to her.
Today, I'll tell you of the first time I made tamales with my mom. And how that experience and the feelings behind that experience are helping me today. Those precious memories are helping me to get through this treacherous holiday season.
And my wish to you all is to get through these tough times as safe as possible. Please stay safe and take special care of yourself.
