A veces pienso que en Valledupar nos hemos acostumbrado a decir que somos pobres, cuando en realidad tenemos una de las riquezas m\u00e1s grandes que puede tener una ciudad: su gente.
Aqu\u00ed tenemos un coraz\u00f3n grande. Somos generosos, atentos, espont\u00e1neos y buenos anfitriones. Aqu\u00ed todav\u00eda se saluda al vecino, se recibe al visitante con cari\u00f1o y se comparte lo que hay, as\u00ed sea poco. Y eso, aunque no aparezca en ninguna estad\u00edstica, es una riqueza enorme.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mi abuelo, Poncho Cotes, dec\u00eda algo
que siempre me ha quedado en la memoria:
\u00abYo soy el hombre m\u00e1s rico de esta regi\u00f3n, porque todos los d\u00edas un consign\u00f3 un amigo en mi cuenta\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Y no hablaba de dinero. Hablaba de amistad, de afecto, de gente que estaba ah\u00ed. Esa era su verdadera fortuna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valledupar tambi\u00e9n es rica por su m\u00fasica, por el r\u00edo Guatapur\u00ed, por la Sierra Nevada, por sus paisajes, por nuestra cultura, por el vallenato y por esa manera tan nuestra de hacer sentir bien a quien llega.
Tal vez lo que nos ha faltado no es riqueza, sino mejor administraci\u00f3n y m\u00e1s confianza en lo que somos.
Hemos tenido administraciones que no siempre han sabido convertir todas esas virtudes en oportunidades, desarrollo y bienestar. Y por eso, a veces, terminamos mostr\u00e1ndole al mundo una Valledupar m\u00e1s peque\u00f1a de lo que realmente es. Yo creo que podemos cambiar esa historia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No se trata de creernos m\u00e1s que nadie. Al contrario: se trata de reconocer, con humildad, que tenemos mucho para ofrecer y mucho por construir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Porque si una ciudad tiene gente buena, talento, cultura, naturaleza, alegr\u00eda y un coraz\u00f3n tan grande como el nuestro, ya tiene buena parte de la riqueza necesaria para conquistar el mundo.
Solo falta que aprendamos a creer m\u00e1s en nosotros, a administrar mejor lo que tenemos y a trabajar juntos para que Valledupar sea ante Colombia y ante el mundo la ciudad que siempre ha merecido ser.
Valledupar no es pobre. Valledupar es una tierra rica que todav\u00eda est\u00e1 descubriendo todo lo que tiene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enrique \u00abMono\u00bb Cotes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Administrador de Empresas, empresario, m\u00fasico y ciudadano convencido de que Valledupar puede volver a marcar el tiempo del progreso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
