I went to Cuba in May and this is what I saw.
The revolution is not just an event that occurred many years ago, the revolution is constant. But it's not an earth-shattering event anymore either. It's ordinary. It has its flaws and imperfections. Yet it's still an ideal to attain. It's still trying to make a difference. It's still moving. It's still revolving. It's a beautiful attempt and a beautiful actuality. It contains moments of awe as well as awkwardness. It's worn down and ugly and rusty. It's waiting to be reshaped and it's waiting for no one in particular. It's just. It just is. It is.
