18. Tomorrow- Inti






"...the tomorrow is determined by the past, but it's played today."

We are getting focus on the parents, to know the kids best. The idea is to get closed to them so we can know what they show and hide.
For humans a parent is who give them the life and also, who teach to live it. Not always a parent fulfill both functions, they are parents that just give life and others that just teach to live it, the absence or presence, the parents are the ones that mark a path, the one that left an indelible footprint.
The father is the mirror where the kid looks, the kid wants to be like his father and copy every gesture. When you break the mirror is when you enter adulthood, just in the moment the mirror breaks, they can see themselves as they are: parent and kid. 

The bond between father and son, is the one that left the most indelible footprint for a child, a parent gives you everything: life, livelihoods, education, siblings. 

Between all the animal species, the human cub is the longer it takes to grow up and fend for himself, during all this time, the parents are there, getting the kid ready for the tomorrow and in that long aging process, the parents, by presence or absence, by act or omission, live footprints on their kids. 

Some parents insist on believing that the children's are his, that they belong to them, they resist to the idea that those kids are from the life; that they only take care of them until they are ready for the tomorrow. Bad or good, United or divided. The parents also give a family to their kids, the best home of their childhood, some parents prepared their kids for the tomorrow, others are jealous of the tomorrow. 
Because they believe it's going to take them away from them. The tomorrow will reverse the roles, and the children will help the parents to walk, tomorrow, the children is going to try the parent as they tried him yesterday, tomorrows, when the human cub fend for himself, even when he turns into a father, he will still being a son.
Once again Ian was correct on his strategy, go back, and understand to which tomorrow we are moving, the tomorrow is determined by the past, but it's played today.
