A Dream Written Across Borders

Translating this book is much more than converting words from one language to another — it is the living proof that dreams never expire, no matter how many years pass.

This story was born from the heart of a boy who was just 12 years old when he first dared to write it. A boy who had no publishers, no guidance, no resources — only the pure, relentless desire to put on paper a love that marked his soul forever.

Decades have passed. That boy grew up, faced the challenges of life, and carried this story within him as a treasure kept safe — waiting for the right moment to be shared with the world.

Today, at nearly 57 years old, I look back and realize: some loves are too big to be forgotten. Some memories deserve to travel beyond the borders of time, language, and distance. That is why I chose to bring this book to life in English — so that readers in the United States, Canada, and anywhere this language reaches can also walk through the streets of my childhood, hear the music of my memories, and feel the innocent heartbeat of a first love that never truly faded.

Canada, in particular, holds a special place in my heart. It’s the place my beloved son dreams of one day calling home. Life isn’t always easy — finances, challenges, and language are barriers — but if there’s something I’ve learned, it’s that no dream is ever too big when the heart believes. And this book is the living proof of that.

Back then, when I was that boy with a notebook and a dream, I never imagined that one day I’d have the help of something as incredible as Artificial Intelligence — a tool that became a true companion in this journey of translation and transformation.

I wrote this book with nothing but heart, hope, and perseverance. No publisher. No sponsorship. Just me, my memories, and the unshakable will to make my words eternal.

And now, with deep emotion, I share it with you. I hope it touches your heart as deeply as it has touched mine for a lifetime.

Thank you for reading my story. Thank you for being part of this dream.
