I effectively retired on July 15, 2014, after forty-six years of service in the oil and gas industry as petroleum engineer in the US and abroad. The time had come, and it was time for me to look forward to a long-anticipated retirement and quality time with my wife and family. I decided to write my memories to share my feelings and love with my parents, family, and people close to me. It was not my intention to sound selfish or narcissistic when describing myself and my achievements in life. I tried to do it in a biographical way, showing steps to reach goals and destinations. I hope my autobiography helps the reader understand objectively who I am or was in the pursuit of dreams and reality. My memoir consists of various anecdotes and stories of my childhood. The memoir details my very early childhood and teenage years in Colombia, South America, but focuses primarily on my life in the USA. It also includes my struggles with violence, corruption, and the politics of living in a third world country. The book was written in 2016.
