Soccer

Hi guys

In this occasion, and taking advantage of Chile is in atmosphere of America´s Cup, and father’s day, I will talk about soccer.

I know than many people see soccer as a something negative because of the Fifa and his administrative disorder, and his corruption. Besides the cup, and many championship of this natures sometimes only serve to make invisible the social conflicts of a country or continent.

But today I won't talk of that part, I want talk about what soccer as a sport means to me.

Previously I said that I would use the theme of Father's day, This is because I didn't grow up with my biological father, in exchange I haved Three male figures throughout my life  who supplemented the parental role, acompanying to my mother and my grandmother during all stages of my life, They where my grandfather, my uncle, and my stepfather.

The name of my uncle is Claudio Vilches, he has always played soccer, and he love’s these sport, and is a fan of Colo.colo. When I was a little girl, he took me to stadium, and to my giant doll, and with my aunt say him play. Go to the stadium was something every sunday. And when he not playing, we watched the games on TV together.  Of course, when playing colo-colo was a festivity. 

That's why soccer is so important to me, because it represents the connection a person has with a dad, I have it with my uncle. As well as I share the passion for food with my grandfather, and word games with my stepfather.

I hope you have a nice weekend

Bye
