“From early childhood I observed men return home with their shoulders covered with dust and sweat, after a hard day’s work in the fields, in the vineyards and in the olive fields. Despite the fatigue, my grandparents always faced with full of dignity and satisfaction their lives. They knew that their sacrifices allow their children and grandchildren to have a better quality of life than theirs.”
