Dear
qvFamilia
Welcome to qv13. The Success Issue! We
are so excited to introduce you to the new qvMagazine--filled
with many new changes, including a new cover design and eight
new full-color pages! These changes represent yet another milestone
for qvMagazine and show how greatly you, our faithful readers,
have helped us grow over the last two years. From San Diego to
New York, Seattle to Miami, we thank you for your support--especially
for being part of the qvFamilia and for making qvMagazine the
#1 Latino magazine in the nation!
To kick things off right, we've got success
on our minds! This is our way of introducing a positive prelude
for the future. Success can mean a variety of things. It can
mean having a plethora of positive groundbreaking accomplishments
or it can mean having a lot of material things. It can mean doing
instead of watching. It can mean making a name that everyone
will remmeber you by. Yet still, for others it can mean living
a happy life.
For us here at qvMagazine, success means
showcasing our beautiful gente in a powerful way that allows
them to share their talents with the nation. It also means showing
our readers that it's okay to be who you are and that you should
respect yourself. All in all, success to us means breaking stereotypes
and showing the world that we can achieve physical, emotional,
spiritual, and financial success.
When you think about it, our Latino culture
is already praised for our successes by so many other cultures--much
more than we might think. We are praised for our foods, arts,
and crafts. We are praised for how we think and speak. In fact,
even the little things that make up our culture, such as a taco
joint, pupuseria, or a favorite empanada restaurant.
In this issue of qvMagazine, we feature
a variety of success stories--stories of people who are QV and
who are not. These are important people who are making a difference
in the community through their artistic talents, their athleticism,
their careers, or through their own personal lives. One of these
individuals is renowned Latino artist Antonio Rael, who has given
much to the Latino community. Another success story is that
of openly QV Los Angeles police officer, A.J. Rotella. We also
spotlight rising artist Lilia Veronica Rivera de Lomeli. And
on the celebrity tip, we unveil the qvInterview everyone's been
waiting for--our exclusive interview with Oscar de la Hoya, one
of the most successful Latino boxers of all time!
With these stories in mind, just remember
that no matter how you define success, it is wise to use it to
achieve peace, harmony, and prosperity. Use it to live a life
that you can be proud of. So go out and be the best person you
can be! Once again, we thank you for being part of the qvFamily
as we proudly present the new qvMagazine--The Success Issue!
Sincerely, The qvStaff
