"Gloria"
Back in the day one of my favorite groups was that of U2. That was before they became so commercialized and so full of themselves. One song: "Gloria" has to be one of my all time favorites for two reasons: it's lyrics and the way that Bono(check out his hair!) sang this song with so much passion.
What does that have to do with Cuba ..Alfredo?
I'll get to that in a minute.. here are the lyrics to the song:
I try to sing this song I...I try to stand up But I can't find my feet I try, I try to speak up But only in you I'm complete
Gloria...in te domine Gloria...exultate Gloria...Gloria Oh Lord, loosen my lips
I try to sing this song I...I try to get in But I can't find the door The door is open You're standing there You let me in
Gloria...in te domine Gloria...exultate Oh Lord, if I had anything Anything at all I'd give it to you I'd give it to you
Gloria...Gloria..
How many of our brothers and sisters died either by execution or as a result of the communist regime? They gave EVERYTHING they had for Our Lord standing up for what was right. All those political prisoners now giving their ALL for what is right!
Can we say the same?
In and out of Cuba it seems that we have splintered off in so many tangents, agendas, and divisiveness...and that's exactly what evil and this regime wants! We get so stuck on topics like the embargo and other issues that we lose sight and FOCUS!
Are we(me included) willing: if I had anything Anything at all I'd give it to you I'd give it to you Gloria...Gloria...
Join the FAST for political prisoners on Friday's and give YOUR ALL. Do it for those who gave their ALL...Do it for those who have lost hope.
Maybe one day I can sing these lyrics in Matanzas, Madruga, and at my Grandparents grave!!!!
- Cuba: Never....never.......i Will Never Give Up On You!
All this talk about cruises(No Cubans allowed), normalization, a Cuban consulate in Miami, Cuban baseball players playing in MLB, and the recent Obama tour in Cuba is enough to make you crazy! NEWS FLASH...... NOTHING HAS CHANGED IN...
- Can We See The Lights?
"Lights" by Journey is one on my favorite songs. Journey wrote this song on how they missed their city San Francisco while touring. Fredo.....What does this have to do with Cuba? Well the lyrics can apply to millions of Exiles and those who have...
- "president Obama Heads To Emilio And Gloria Estefan's Fundraiser"
Gloria and Emilio Estefan are holding a "FUNDRAISER" at their Miami Beach home and Obama will be at this event today. A "$30,400-per couple cocktail reception " and will this change things in Cuba? I doubt it!...

What? I get a rambling e-mail on how upset this guy is because he could not bring his Cuban cigars into the U.S. because of the embargo. He blames me and the embargo. I e-mailed him back with a response(nice) and asked him what kind of Cuban cigars did...
