StereotypE...



Let´s take a look around you. Did you do it? What did see?

Well, my dear readers today I’m gonna write about something that everyone knows but most of the times we really ignore.

None of us are equal, in term of, appearance. You and me are different, we have different outward appearance, culture, knowledge, tastes and so on. Nevertheless, people make a mistake when judge people by their appearance but, have you ever asked why?

It seems that stereotypes make a disruptive influence in us. Every day we are guiding our tastes, for instance, by stereotypes. How many little girls try to imitate famous models, in term of, appearance and it is harmful for them because as they try to achieve a great body they injure their physical and mental health.

A sobering conclusion is how we have been contributing to this thought? Do we guarantee these stereotypes? As a teacher, how would you face this important issue?

Wanna learn, I wanna learn ...(8 post)





Since I was a child I took a bit of a shine to music and for that, I really admire musicians and I asked myself, how they can do that? One of my reasons of admiration for them was because I ever think that a person who has the skills to play an instrument (special violin) has a great talent. Also important is the ability to play an instrument, in term of, cognitive. In other words, I usually said how clever they are!! But, what I would like you to know is that all those kind of people who play any instrument make our world better. Have you ever imagined your life without music? For that reason, I really admire them and I would like to have a talent like them. All right, my dears this is what I would like to learn, I am fond of music!!

Is it so idealistic, isn´t?

Frankly, I think he is a great thinker, but most of his ideas are idealistic. I really appreciate his idea of recognize the economic problems the we have nowadays, such as : growth of slums, traffic congestion, air pollution, noise, economic waste, poorly coordinated municipal planning due to division of political authority.

About it, I consider as a good idea to recognize our problems, because in this way we are going to look for a solution and finally solve it. Also was mentioned an economic problem which in my opinion it is the most important obstacle that any improver plan have to face.

How a society which works with production, is going to consider environment?
Society must make a choice, environment (nature) or production (money and improvement)
Victor’s city suggests that, the solution it is in urban countryside. He mentioned that it is necessary rebuilding everything. He notices that it is necessary a new alone city. According to this I do not agree with him, because every change has to start from the older one. If you are going to create a new one, you have to consider the other one.

To conclude, I like Victor’s city, but I must confess that I do not understand some terms. However, I noticed about his good ideas in term of improvement. But I have to say that as society we should reflect on nature and what we are doing to get it better (…)

Autumn?


What is your opinion about season?
For instance, I was born
in June and I really enjoy when autumn is coming. Since I was a child
I asked myself if season makes any influence in my personality...I do not know.
Maybe, it makes an influence in a part of our personalities or tastes, who knows?

The point is that most of us, have a favourite season and we really enjoy when it is coming.
But, what is the resason? what do you think?... let me know(...)

Workaholic? (7 post)


As worker or student, we are tired every day because of our work. For that reason it is necessary take a holiday...but, do we have time to do that?
How many times we have said: I’ll get away from it all, but as soon as I could, I I’ll make it...or someone asks you: When are you going on vacation? It is still up in the air...

What I want you suggest is that we do not have to invest all our effort or attention in just one thing like our job... Have you ever asked yourself if you work to live or you live to work? As per usual, we let our interests aside. Each morning we are breaking our back working overtime and the day ends in the same way.

Come on! Have a ball on your own...Make your choice...

Children (..) Have you ever asked what they wanted to tell you?(6 post)


.



...We do understand them, I guess
Most of the times, people do not consider children as members of family, group of friends, or society. As adults, ignore children in term of taking a decision, saying an opinion or something like that.

Children are by far the best learner, but we do not see that. How many times we have been required for them to do something, however we just tell them: I am so sorry but you are so little!!!

But, when we want them to obey any order we say: you have grown up so...we must let them choose by their own decision and do not choose by them, they have their own opinion.
Have we heard what they have to say? We do let them to do that?

Are you gonna get married?


Being an important person in my life, Alice is one of my best friends. Since the first time we met we knew that we were gonna be friends As friends we have many things in common, we were born on June, both are Gemini and so on. When we were girls I remember when she had problems the first person who thought was me. I can say that both of us rely on in each other.Both are only child, so we believe we are sister.
As her sister I have looked after her throughout our life, but now we are adult and I can not do anything about her decisions.
Alice´s boyfriend is a berk. That guy is always thinking how sicken Alice. He is the most jeleaous person that I have ever met, but I have to confess that I ignore my opinion about him, because Alice is in love with him so what can I do?
But what you have read is not the worst part of the story. YesterdayAlice ring me at night saying me that she is gonna get married with that airhead and it took me by surprise...
How can I make my friend change her mind? She is not in her right mind, they are always fighting but it is alwayis his fault, because he considers that Alice should not wear mini skirt and he has the opinion that women should not work because they are not able to do this...can you beleive it!!He is an idiot chauvinist!!
The problem is that Alice has a lack of confidence, she believes that "this stupid guy"is the last guy over the world. Actually, she is not single-minded, take a decisionis very hard for her, I have tried to help her but it has not been an easytask...
As an adult person, Alice is taking things easy and she is not thinking about its consequences, she has a tendency to act hastily which is really worry.
I must do something about it, but I do not know what. I have been thinking in a way that Alice realizes that her relationship has not foster close and a lack of trust.
She has to get rid of him, but how? How can I make my friend realize about it? She does not know how to embrace an awkward situation like this, can you give her a pieceof advice? is it a good idea to get marriaged with this idiot chauvinist?
