I ALWAYS TRUST IN YOU MY DEAR JESUS
When everything seems to fall apart, Jesus I trust in you;
When the physical pain grows, Jesus I trust in you;
When my loved one went to heaven, Jesus I trust you;
When those who I helped along the way turn to devour me, Jesus I trust you;
When I am unemployed, Jesus I trust in you;
When I have been hit and hurt, Jesus I trust in you;
When this covid19 makes us sick and isolates us, Jesus I trust in you;
And only you, My Jesus, stay with me; your words and prayers console my heart.
SIEMPRE JESUS EN TI CONFIO
Cuando todo parece que se cae, Jesús en ti confío;
Cuando el dolor físico crece, Jesús en ti confío;
Cuando partió al cielo mi ser amado, Jesús en ti confío;
Cuando los que ayude en el camino voltean a devorarme, Jesús en ti confío;
Cuando no tengo empleo, Jesús en ti confío;
Cuando me han pegado y herido, Jesús en ti confío;
Cuando el covid19 nos enferma y aísla, Jesús en ti confío;
Y sólo me quedas tú Jesús mío; tus palabras en la Biblia y la oración son consuelo para mi corazón.

About the Author
I was born in Mexico City into a Catholic family. It was in my family where I first learned to know and love God. There is no doubt that attending Catholic schools from kindergarten to university helped me grow deeper in my faith and made me able to share with others the love that God has shown me.
In Mexico I practiced law for 14 years. Then my husband and I decided to apply for residency in Canada. In 1999, my family and I moved to Canada. With my two boys in tow, I was once again blessed with the gift of motherhood when my daughter was born in Canada.
Unable to practice law in Canada, I looked for another kind of job. But it wasn’t until I started writing that I found a way to pour my thoughts and struggles as an immigrant and as a parent. Mostly it is a way to express my faith and life from a Catholic point of view.
I joined a writer’s group and took writing courses at the University of Victoria. Since then, I have been determined to take my writing seriously, create something, and be more upfront about it.
Writing is my best companion. It is the best way to express my feelings, beliefs and love. Writing for me is the best way of sharing who I am; passing my learned lessons unto the next generation; and to communicate with the rest of the world.
I have published different articles in local newspapers. I received such great reviews from my family, friends and acquaintances that motivated me to continue my writing.
All my books and poems are printed in English and in Spanish.
My motto is: “Be the Inspiration, Find the Inspiration”.
