>BTW, I'm convinced that the words "rescato" and "arropan" may have a "special" translation.
>Finally, the phrase "esa parte de ti llamada yo" it means something like: Esa parte de ti que soy yo... o sea, esa parte de esa persona que me lleva a mi.

When I did the previous translation, I was too lazy to consult the dictionary... not very professional, I must admit.

For "rescatar", the dictionary only mentions "ransom, rescue, free, release, save, make up for (lost time), exchange". But in the text, I have the impression that the writer uses it more in the sense of learning something, getting something useful out of his experiences.

"Arropar": 1. To clothe, wrap with clotes. 2. to add syrup (to wine). -r.v. to clothe oneself, wrap up. Since the text didn't seem to refer to real clothing, I changed it to "envelop", but perhaps "wrap up" is better (since this term is used both for real clothes, and metaphorically).

Saludos,

Hilmar.
