... Soy de Medellín. Acabo de regresar despues de 7 años por fuera del pais y me siento mas feliz de estar nuevamente aqui en esta ciudad tan linda y la gente tan expectacular. Lo único que nos enluta el corazón es saber estas personas secuestradas en mano de esos villanos. Es mi y nuestro compromiso participar de esta caminata. Vivamos nuestra ciudad con alegria y optimismo. |
