As daunting of a task as it seemed, I was devoted to learning the truth, to finding the answer to my desire. For six sleepless nights, I tossed and I turned, yearning for the delectable treat that my appetite required. I refused to sleep until I found what I was searching for. \n\nIf it wasn't for my dearest friend Daniela, I would not be the man I am today. I mentioned my predicament and as if by fate, she produced a 2x4 inch business card revealing the potential restaurant I would try. It was called Aracely's SAZON Colombiano. My heart skipped a beat at the sound of the name. I pictured the Jeep in the photo sweeping me off my feet to take me to this promised land. I must find out for myself. It was then that my quest took its most pivotal turn.\n\nConclusion: I finally made my way into the gates of Aracely's. The ambiance was warm, welcoming. I almost felt a familiar comfort the instant I set foot in the store. I was home. This must be the place. Juan helped me find a seat and gave me a menu. He asked how many people would be joining me tonight. I replied \"Only Juan.\" We laughed together as old friends do. We bumped fists and he went back to let me decide on a meal. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed. Never in all my years have I experienced such euphoria, such exhilarating joy. Aracely's changed my life. I will not eat anywhere else. \n\nEpilogue: It's been 5 years now and I still am a regular at Aracely's. Juan and I became best friends and are going to backpack Panama next week. I look at my house, my kids, my wife and dog and think how none of this would have been possible without Aracely's. Please, take my advice and go there, just once. Find out what I did. Find the truth. Find your meaning. \n\nThank you"^^ .
