How The Sea Became My Blood.
Ok. You should Google what does the name Maria mean. "Star of the sea". Which I guess kind of fits me, because I grew up close to the sea. I never really quite appreciated living in Cancun as a child, but it reminds me I used to love the sea. And I know the sea is inside me. As a toddler, I was just like little Moana. I remember I went to the hotel where my grandparents worked (BTW, in Cancun, where the hotel is, there's the sea), I helped sea turtles go to the ocean. I always liked the taste of sea water in my mouth (that's weird, isn't it?). The moral of this post is, your name means something and appreciate where you come from.
