... My name is Manu Díaz was born and live in a small town in the Northwest in English ... a country without a State .... in a country called Galicia ... with their own language with its own culture, with its own customs ... but inhabited by men and women, the vast majority do not feel the above .. to the contrary, are very English and I reject the claim Galician .... I do not blame, perhaps have more reason yo .. I talk a lot, but certainly not reflected in my daily life ... for example, say we have their own language, Galician, but I am the first not to talk regularly, but I can assure that culprit is the system that existed when I was young. Galician speaking infracultura entailed, the lower classes, the most uneducated, the villagers ... in the capital spoke Castilian .. prohibido.Os else was simply saying that I live in a small town called Lugo, is the oldest city Galicia, more than two thousand years, with many Roman ruins, walled city as a whole, and where life is quiet too quiet sometimes miss more animation in the streets, more cultural events, for example, we have no one damn theater and watch .. it bothers me because I am a lover of the theater .... a boy, he studied in the Seminar Lugo, is a good study that was the main actor of the theater company .. and it was not bad, rather I would define as a good actor, yes, and it is not immodest, life, my life back I demonstrated that I am a good actor, because often I have to play many roles that have nothing to do with my way of looking at life, or my way of thinking or being, later, will understand these events.
I was born into a family of incredible and unusual, I mean, I am the sixth of eleven children, six males and five females, hence the label of atypical, which together with my parents, my grandfather, Mrs. Carmen, helping my mother to look after, and the cat ... it became an amazing family, of which there were at least me, not another family like that in my city. Actually, my childhood was also amazing and atypical childhood was happy as can be ... we lived on the street, there were dangers lurking, we had nothing, just a ball, and played sports all day, did not need nothing else, we had the main, a fantastic family that took care of us, pampered us, educated us and gave us the most important thing you can have a child that is not nothing but a happy home, with little in the material, but much in the spiritual. We did not need anything else.
But one grows, it is law of life, and grow proportionally issues, adolescence, first loves, first heartbreaks, and the suspended studies of them I have a good library, parent-child relationship, this season of our life where we feel that the confrontation is our reason for being, and embodied in our daily life .... Parents are people who just want humpback life, and that is our thinking, later, well, much later, we discover that our parents were a source of wisdom and reason, tolerance and infinite patience, and selfless love and affection. My father's not here physically, I miss him every minute of life, and my mother, just his eighty-seven years, and is wonderful, inside and out ... my mother is an angel, a good angel , it can not be evil, do not know to be bad, is the best mother of all mothers, although it sounds a cliché.
After of adolescence, problems continue to grow, just school, you have to decide to stay in school or jump right is the labor market, in my case, I was called up for military service, had to honor my country, well, that's what we said the current regime ... for me the country is a nonsense word, without content, a ragamuffins invented by an authoritarian regime, disgusting, a murderer and a liar, a regime that had hijacked an entire people under terror for them, if your thinking was different, you were the enemy ... and curiosity, Diaz Family, we all thought differently, then we were persecuted, punished, and even some of members, brutally murdered, and buried somewhere without my earth name is Galician. I said I had to go to the army, a total of 15 months, where I had a hard, I missed my family, my friends, I missed my way of life, which were the opposite of what he was doing ... but I must be honest, not all were disappointments in Almeria, beautiful city, where I discovered something I did not know, the Andalusian woman! ... that great, were lovely, friendly, open-minded, quite the opposite to what I knew even then , must be the weather, there were the sun almost all year, normalcy was here On the contrary, leaden gray days, and I think that influences our way of seeing life. The Sun is a good dose of vitamins, makes me feel optimistic, healthy, and even more attractive than I am indeed.
the military is finished, and I get fully in planning my future ... I start work on a commercial notary office, the now defunct Trade Corridor. In the office, also worked my brother Joseph and my father ... .. that would become my best teacher ... he taught me everything about that job, and it allowed me later ... .. going deeper into the financial system ... .. and begin to develop what was truly my passion .... Being an actor ... yes sir, and wonder that has to do the work in a financial institution to be an actor? ... .. but do not understand it has much to do, and try to explain with few words ... working on the "office" I got the chance to join a small Galician savings bank, which around the year 92 of the last century, opened an office in Lugo, and I took ... I left the "office" and I joined the small box. It worked for administrative, cashier, business, come on, went through all the posts quite call them "low profile." It took six years intense of hard work, and little satisfaction ... I had to deal with a boss absolutely disastrous, wrong, incompetent, bad, personally and professionally ... I had the typical profile of financial climbs, I was ready for anything, just for their own benefit . In this company, and had, in sporadic cases, use me as actor ... and the truth given to me, no one noticed anything .... More like "swallowed" with my performances.
We are located in May 1998, I was completely defeated, pursued, no, and started to take seriously the possibility of leaving the company .. not take it anymore ... or burst, and could commit any outrage, or I was there ... was unbearable ... and it happened ... ... a beautiful May morning, my phone rings and someone on the other side of the line gives me the opportunity to become part of a project to Galactic me ... I doubled the salary, and offered me the opportunity to direct a bank, but not just any office, but one of the largest savings bank in Europe, an office located in a suburb of my city, which seems be not working so the company wanted ... .... and thought of me .... I did not understand ... I was not prepared theoretically ... I have no university degree had no financial knowledge, and knew nothing of what was needed to run a bank ... but I accepted, and embarked on a fantastic adventure, which I did not know if I would have a happy ending ... ... ... .. now read about my side of actor .... I had to represent an embarrassment ... ... run a bank and a team, having no damn idea of \u200b\u200bit. The movie lasted no more and no less than eleven years ... years that represent more or less brilliant paper that is certainly not my place to ... ... but I think, in a unilateral analysis .... That triumphed smugly. ... and the movie ended in success, titled movie I like ... ..... "The Supplanter" ... .. but do not think that's just me in the financial system ... .. there are so many impersonators in SF flourish like mushrooms in autumn, and I'm short. The financial system is the largest rainforest in the world, abound here ... vultures that eat the dead bodies left by the way .... The jackals ... those who eat all the living that are placed in front skunks ... ... ... ... . that is leaving its mark wherever they go ... ... snakes .... who leave their deadly sting in a confident ... .. vampires and vampires .... that suck and suck and suck, just to get advance their status ... ... and so could continue, to get a good zoo ... ... The financial system is the best example of ineptitude in the world, I think all the world are incompetent in this world , allow me to not include me, and clear, so it goes. He said that this film lasted eleven years .... Now in 2011, plays represent another, not so important, but equally intense for me .... But that's for later.
On this tour, short tour I wanted to do for my life, I left for the final two aspects of it that have undoubtedly been the ones I have marked and are in that order of importance .... My family and Sport ... .... of my family and I talked at the beginning of this writing, but it was my birth family, no family that I choose and no doubt, and evaluated from maturity, has lights and shadows ... shadows ... because my marriage was wrecked, and that certainly is a failure ... .. where I do not want to delve much, for sure, I have much to blame, I'm human, not like me flagellar my mistakes ... ... I just want to stay with the positives .... my children .... Iago and Cristina ... .. love them .... I would give my life for them ... .... I try to be a good father, sometimes rightly and sometimes I'm wrong, but that if I have insurance, is that my children want me ... and that to me is the greatest gift I can make a living. I just wish that permits them to be at least moderately happy, and they can develop and realize their dreams. Hopefully.
Sport, I can tell you this, that I have worked as a professional, as an amateur, but I can say very high .... The only sport has given me satisfaction, friends, and now I'll never forget. Volleyball has been my second life .... I spent thirty years of my life, I started very early, at ten years, and retired in the past forty thousand more competitive matches, wins, losses, not in that proportion, but I do not care, I have been happy playing sports, and within my means I'm playing sports, despite my age, you remember is close to the fifty-four years. Undoubtedly the highlight of my sporting life has been, the power to carry the Olympic torch back in the summer of 92, they were only five hundred meters, but I felt the most important man in the world, carrying the Olympic torch ran surrounded a lot of people, television cameras, the Civil Guard motorcyclists. ... and me in the middle ... .. another great moment in my life as an actor!.
After this presentation, too schematic, too short, and where insurance left me many things in the pipeline, especially those things, which provoked deliberately forgotten, because as I said before, I do not like flagellar my mistakes .... said that after of this presentation, I have to explain why it all ... .... is neither more nor less than to compile in a book, it sounds very pretentious, experiences, thoughts, dreams and utopian dreams, successes, mistakes and everything that can be imagine, and which serve to my children, my grandchildren and other family, they may know one day as I thought, or philosophy of life of someone close to them.
First, I very clear that I am not, nor do I believe a writer, not even a counter experience, no, I'm just a dreamer, who dreams day and night, and when I hide in the darkness, I dream that I am a writer, poet and actor. ... and I'm happy ... .. but then when I wake up, go back to my normal life, and I realize that I am neither a writer nor a poet, and actor .... only a man who gets up every morning, and is to make life simpler for all who want or who are at my side .... to return my work, although that sometimes clash with my ideas, or my way of seeing and living life, in short, to be a good man ... but sometimes it is not so sure, but I can assure you never intended to hurt .... and so on until nightfall ... and start to dream again ... and then I become what I want to be. A DREAMER.
If I may, the book I'm going to dedicate to the person who most influenced my life (along with my mother), that person is my father Guillermo, an extraordinary man ... .. worship without stepping on any college .... generous, with very little material I had .... kind, the needy was the most helpful tireless worker ... ... ... ... ... .. humble .... until the unthinkable ... ... .. ... .. as intelligent few ... .... but mostly it was a good man, and I think that is the best adjective you can do to a human. I miss him, and I regret so many things .... having discussed with him, of having disobeyed, had been so rebellious, but mostly I regret not having spent more time at his side, learning from him, their daily lessons, your kindness ... .... Luv father, I mean very high, so that the whole world to know ... .. I LOVE YOU.
