This blog is a plática, a conversation, in both Spanish and English about being a Boricua, a Puerto Rican, en la luna, or on the moon (or on its metaphorical facsimile: the United States). The phrase is the title of a poem by Juan Antonio Corretjer, which was made into a song by Roy Brown and updated by Puerto Rican Spanish-rock group Fiel a la Vega.

Believe in miracles
A year ago, the doctors believed my father had only a few months to live. Today, he celebrates his 73rd birthday.
Such are the not-so-small miracles that give me faith.
