LETTER<br />

As we all<br />

know, Palmas<br />

is going<br />

through one<br />

of the most<br />

progressive moments in many years. Property values<br />

are up, and there is new construction as well as exciting<br />

projects in the pipeline. Our school, The Palmas<br />

Academy, that suffered greatly from Hurricane Maria,<br />

(as well as our community in general) is recovering by<br />

leaps and bounds. The Palmas Athletic Club (known<br />

as PAC) is at its best; the tennis center is always full of<br />

enthusiastic tennis and pickleball players. On the other<br />

hand, our golf courses are in optimal condition and<br />

important tournaments have already been held this<br />

year and more are scheduled to be held. But all progress<br />

is accompanied by small problems or situations<br />

inherent to the human condition. In Palmas, as in other<br />

regions of PR, many families have settled, both local and<br />

from different regions of the United States and abroad.<br />

We are human beings born and raised with different traditions,<br />

customs, environments, cultures, languages, and<br />

often different religions—this can cause conflicts. But we<br />

must always remember that at the end of the day, we are<br />

all the same; our blood is red (although some believe<br />

theirs is blue) and our skeleton is the same (some larger<br />

than others), our skin is lighter or darker, eventually it<br />

gets old and wrinkled just the same. However, sometimes<br />

we fight over little things because we think that<br />

our way of thinking and doing things is correct and the<br />

only way. We do not realize that the way we think is a<br />

product of how and where we were raised and not that<br />

we are sole keepers of the truth. Let’s learn from each<br />

other without trying to impose our ‘truth’ because at the<br />

end of the day we win when we learn that ‘my way’ is not<br />

always ‘the way’.<br />
