This is me
My name is Leandro Gabriel Cabañola, but almost everyone calls me Lea.
I am 42 years old, and I am from Argentina.
I am the husband of Elizabeth and the proud father of two wonderful children, Mora and Zacarías. If I had to describe myself in one sentence, I would say that I am a family man. They are the reason I get up every morning and the motivation that keeps me moving forward, even when life becomes difficult.
I work in the monitoring field, a job that has taught me responsibility, attention to detail, and the importance of staying alert. But my life is about much more than work. I enjoy learning, exploring new ideas, and talking about a wide range of topics—from technology and science to history, photography, movies, fragrances, and the deeper meaning behind life's experiences.
My faith is at the center of who I am. I believe in God and strive to walk with Him every day. I am far from perfect. I have my own struggles, doubts, and difficult seasons, just like anyone else. But I have learned that true strength is not about never falling—it's about getting back up, trusting that God is still at work even when I cannot understand everything.
One thing that has shaped me over the years is loneliness. I wouldn't say I'm a man who has friends. I know many people, and many people know me, but true friendship has been rare in my life. I have always tried to be there for others whenever they needed someone, yet when I needed support myself, there was often no one beside me. That experience has been painful, but it has also taught me resilience and has drawn me closer to God.
Even so, I have not allowed that to make me bitter. I still choose to care, to help, and to believe that genuine relationships exist. I value honesty, loyalty, and meaningful conversations far more than popularity or large social circles.
Like any husband and father, I have dreams, worries, and goals. I want to build a better future for my family, improve my health, continue learning, grow as a man, and leave behind a legacy that my children can be proud of.
If I had to say what truly defines me, it wouldn't be my job, my achievements, or even my failures. What defines me is my determination to keep moving forward, even through hardship, trusting that every new day is another opportunity to become a better man than I was yesterday.
This is my story… and I believe the best chapters have yet to be written.
