I was born at the end of the Franco regime. To be polite, let's say it wasn't exactly the Age of Enlightenment.

Besides, I admit I hit the jackpot in the lottery and my closest environment was a little far from being academic. Even so, I have to admit that I have always been as stubborn as a mule, I was right and the rest of humanity was all wrong, and that is what saved me.

To survive I had to be two different people, the outside that was what I was expected, or almost expected, to be. And my own self that has always been quiet inside, trying not to be discovered, but always watching and learning.

That is why I know that we shy and extremely sensitive people who have other ways of seeing reality are the great sufferers of this world. Always left out, marginalised, misunderstood, humiliated and an easy target for those closest to us who only glimpse what we really are, afraid that we might really shine and outshine them all.

But, that's human nature, you know that as well as I do. So here are some of my conclusions, advice and opinions.

I really hope that someday it can help someone, somewhere in space or time. .
