Reflections on Family and Values
This name that appears there, which is my name, obviously when I look at that plaque, I don't see Luis Enrique, I see my parents' names.
Two people who left their town many years ago to come to Gijón, to give their children an opportunity, back in the '60s and '70s.
They are the two people who have always been my guiding light, the two people who have given everything for their family, they have always been, are, and will be my role models, they are not famous, but they are people who, with their humility and hard work, have shown me the way.
My father always said two things, and he still says them: nothing was ever written about lazy people, I've tried not to be lazy and I try to be a good person, I've tried, and I hope I haven't made too many mistakes.
A round of applause for them.

Este nombre que aparece ahí, que es mi nombre, evidentemente cuando yo miro esa placa no veo a Luis Enrique, yo veo el nombre de mis padres. Dos personas que dejaron su pueblo hace muchos años para venir a Gijón, para darle una oportunidad a sus hijos, allá por los años 60-70. Son las dos personas que siempre han sido mi faro, las dos personas que han dado todo por su familia, siempre han sido son y serán mi referente, no son famosas pero son personas que con su humildad y con su trabajo me han enseñado cuál es el camino. Mi padre siempre decía dos cosas y las dice, de vagos nunca se escribió nada, he intentado no ser un vago e intento ser buena persona, lo he intentado y espero no haberme equivocado demasiado. Un aplauso para ellos.
