Cuento de navidad sin título

Maybe all things can be divided, maybe most things have a half. Here is a country that has two halves, insoluble, heterogeneous; two halves that were born together and refuse despite the fact that nothing separates them, only a «wall» an enormous border that leads nowhere on both sides. In Peru there are several walls, some real and some imaginary, that divide, care for and segregate. Somewhere in Lima Peru there is another wall. Here the population is divided into those who can and those who cannot. A wall of approximately 10 kilometers divides the wealthiest area with one of the poorest cities in the city.
