Raul Velasco

I think that Raul Velasco is a hero because he has people who have become famous just becuase of him, people such as: Miguel Bosé, José Alfredo Jiménez, Menudo, Enrique Iglesias, and others.

His phrase "aun hay mas," translated as "has even more," is a good view of life. If something happens, it doesn't matter whether it is something bad or something good, it wouldn't stop me, because life continues. I'm saying that life "has even more," even more bad things or good things but, nothing will be in vain, because at last we will discover the meaning of life. Although these words of his are not specifically talking about a life lesson, if you really think about it, they create a philosophy of life.

Even though I never knew him, in this moment I'm inspired by his words. It will be good for me to follow him, just as all those people that are now famous did, and know that everything that they have is because Raul Velasco.

His last words were "I don't have words," and he said them in his tribute. It's ironic that he died that day. When he said those words, I think he really said "Thanks for making my last day my best day of my life."

He help my way of thinking. I need to overcome everything in my life, because life "has even more." I am sad that he is dead, but there are things even worse, and we need to overcome them, and understand that it is important to give more, and to have the courage to finish what we start.
