Open letter to Colombian people

Dear Colombian people

Our country is consider as one of the happiest of the world, paradoxically, our country isn´t the most optimistic with a weak economy… But yes!  We are happy and it is so true! We are always smiling and laughing with our friends, families at any place. But I don´t understand why do someone compatriots got used to live by begging on the street? Why do they criticize the government every day? And why do they think negative?
No! It is a shame that they don’t look how lucky we are being Colombians, we have an imaginable and innovative natural if we don’t have a work we invent it, if we do not know something we invent it, and if anyone challenges us we make the impossible in order to show that we can make it possible.
Our country is so rich in biodiversity, water, fossil resource, beautiful stones and flowers. “But we are a poor country” While countries as Japan, Switzerland, Ireland and other with a small territory and less natural resources are world powers.
So why do our country been so rich in people and natural resources, it is such a poor country? Maybe we are lazy people who like to do easy thing and get them with little effort, maybe our rulers are selfish and only think about them and maybe the illegal drug trade in Colombia made us a mental harm up thinking us that the goals are achieved quickly without effort but where there is a will there is a way and we have the obligation of wake up and to know who main our wealth is our people, our virtues and skills and convert our beautiful country in a world power is our duty.

Sincerely
Another Colombian.
