Midnigth Letters Promt #6/ Friend of the night (EN-ES)

Greetings, my dear night owls. It's 12:05 AM in Cuba and here I am with you in this new edition of Midnight Letters

I confess I never had a problem with the night. As a child, I wasn't afraid of the dark. I would get up to go to the bathroom without turning on the lights, trying not to disturb my parents. I could walk all over the house without tripping or being frightened by shadows or nighttime noises.

If I stayed up late, I would lock myself in the bathroom with the light on to read, or I would stay in bed dreaming of fantastic worlds and situations.

Sometimes my dad would get home very late and call me to watch the movies that were shown in the early morning, which we would enjoy with snacks forbidden by my mom. Either way, I had a good time during my childhood nights out.

As a young woman, midnight was the backdrop for parties and gatherings, as well as for studying, and I loved both.

When I became a mother, my sleepless nights with my girls meant having them all to myself, in a calm environment, with time passing more slowly, creating invaluable bonds just by looking at them closely while I breastfed them.

---

Now that I'm older, the nights are my best times for prayer and reflection. Sometimes I take advantage of the time to tidy up, cook, or clean the house while my little girl sleeps. I read and write, I entertain myself with games that the daytime routine doesn't allow, I watch a series or a movie, and, like a child, I continue to daydream about better times and worlds.

---

---

I feel the night as a friend who understands me. If I want to sleep, that's fine with her. If I prefer to stay up with her, her rhythm and her voice are so similar to mine that it's as if she's embracing me.

So, if I could send a message to my younger self, it would be: "Never let anyone speak ill of the night; you know the truth."

I send you a hug, always a hug.

Saludos, mis queridos noctámbulos. Son las 12:05 de la madrugada en Cuba y aquí estoy con ustedes en esta nueva convocatoria de Midnigth Letters

Confieso que nunca tuve problemas con la noche. De pequeña no temía a la oscuridad, me levantaba para ir al baño sin encender luces, tratando de no molestar a mis padres, recorría toda la casa sin tropezar, ni asustarme por las sombras o los ruidos nocturnos.

Si me "desvelaba", me encerraba en el baño con la luz encendida a leer, o me quedaba en la cama soñando mundos y situaciones fantásticas.

A veces mi papá llegaba muy tarde y me llamaba para ver las películas que transmitían en la madrugada, y que acompañábamos con meriendas prohibidas por mamá. De cualquier modo la pasaba bien en mis trasnochadas infantiles.

De jovencita la medianoche fue el telón de fondo para fiestas y tertulias, tanto como para estudios y ambos escenarios me encantaban.

Cuando fui mamá mis noches en vela con mis niñas significaba tenerlas solo para mí, en un ambiente tranquilo, con el tiempo transcurriendo como más lento, creando lazos invaluables con solo mirarlas detenidamente mientras las amamantaba.

---

---

Ahora, de mayor, las noches son testigos de mis mejores tiempos de oración y reflexión. A veces aprovecho para poner orden, cocinar o limpiar la casa mientras mi niña duerme. Leo y escribo, me entretengo con los juegos que la dinámica del día no me permite, veo una serie o una película y, como de niña, sigo soñando despierta con tiempos y mundos mejores.

---

---

Siento la noche como una amiga que me entiende. Si quiero dormir, está bien para ella. Si prefiero quedarme acompañándola, su ritmo y su voz se parecen tanto a los míos que es como si me abrazara.

Así que, si pudiera enviarle un mensaje a mi yo pequeña sería: "Nunca permitas que te hablen mal de la noche, tú conoces la verdad"

Les dejo un abrazo, siempre un abrazo.
