Disappointment

Hater, frustration and luck of solidarity
Are the most common new “virtues” in this world.
“Why should I be kind and gentle?” a simple question frequently asked by those
Who enjoy the suffering of the victims, and the rejoice of blood and luck of brotherhood
Tired of being pulled a leg by many. I say o come on, wait up there.
I am a person who deserves respect
Of course I am not a vulgar as you,
I am just a lady who needs to be heard
I can’t ask you to do a lot but
Please try at least
To listen like the thieves in the corridors.
I am not to waste my time on you anymore, ladies
Your hypocrisy flows
Like the poison in a snake throat.
How can I love you all,
But I do just because of God.
I advise you ladies, leave me alone
I am happy in my own bubble of world.

The only one

A question of luck is it said to be
To find the true love in this pilgrimage.
Others say “destiny”
Should it care?
No gentlemen, the wind blows softly
And you have to feel it
So deep that it takes off your skin
And leaves the door open to love
And million kisses
In the dark.
I hunger for meeting him today.
Just in case, I won’t see him again.
My lover looks at me
As if we were performing "Romeo and Juliet”
There is no one else that can understand better
than yourself
Just by glancing
he knows I’m in hell

You

You are the only one who
Makes sense in my life
The only one who helps me breathe
Who inspire me go on with this
Who knows that my words pay tribute to your spirit.
Please, touch my heart again
I want it, I need it now.
I beg you to take me into your world
Where centuries of lonely stars can run.
It’s just to accompany you
In the long track.
My love, I told you once
“There is no passion greater than the one that touches the sun”
Inside your prison
I pray to stay and rest
Beyond the largest sea
I hope to sit in the paradise
I’ll wait until night comes.

Love

I love you more than the warmth
Of the tender hand of a mother on her child’s face.
There are no flowers in spring
If I can’t be with you today.
I love you more than all virtues in this world
You mean much more to me
That someone I may want.
Your love is so strange that I realized that you enjoy carving
Your name in my heart.
Now, I ask you: “Is it funny?”
It seems it is.
I can tell you babe,
I am a wrecked ship in the sandy shore
So, please don’t you ever-ever leave alone.

To my Dearest Students:

To my Dearest Students:

Whenever your yearnings come to an end
And no one is around.
You, student must take into account
That is not easy to forget
The person who taught you a whole year
The one who pretended to make you understand what was better
For you in many cases.
Maybe in years,
Maybe never,
But believe me a teacher can not be forgotten EVER-ever.
They are the ones who guided you,
who helped you whenever it was necessary .
Our school is our second home
Our teachers our dearest parents
Why don’t you respectfully say them hello
And forget about resentments and troubles?

Your school my school you are to my thoughts
As food to life or as daffodils and dust to the ground.

Violence at school

Most of violent crimes committed by juveniles occur on school days. Many students report carrying a weapon in school. But, why? Many say that it is because of the horrifying crimes, rapes, and assaults that are taking place at different schools. Many people equate school violence with large urban areas: however, violence has invaded suburban and rural schools as well. Not only public schools, but also private schools are also invaded. Guns in schools have increased to the point that nobody is asure to go back home.
A teacher in Leales, Tucuman told me her students don’t want to the school toilets since many girls were raped there. So the girls take with the “something” just in self-defence in case they go to the school toilets. The juvenile offenders are sometimes fellow students, and other times non-student peers, who threaten and attack students, administrators and teachers.
‘I am afraid of going to work at school. I don’t know what is the “surprise” may await me and my students’, a teacher said once. Government and society as a whole should check up security control over schools as well on the students who must be taught and advise about the misfortune guns or knives may have when taken to school whether or not it is just for self- protection.
On their part, schools are part of the community and reflect the events of our whole society so the best they can do is to protect the students so to reduce violence.


Censorship

Censorship on the Internet is a very controversial issue. Many agree that censoring violates the Amendment of free speech. Yet many also believe that it is the government’s duty to censor to protect children and teenagers from any sort of psychological trauma or harm. Some people suggest that local governments should educate their respective communities as regards the liberties when using the net . Does freedom of speech include pornography and “obscenity”? Some argue that obscenity is a matter of opinion and it cannot be defined. So what about the children? Should they be subject to obscenities and pornography?
People opposed to Internet censorship argue that it is a parent’s job to supervise what web sites their children are going to. But parents argue that it is almost impossible to always be there to watch their children, especially for single parents and families where both parents work.
Unfortunately, obscenities and pornography are not all of the harmful material on the Internet that children can access. There are sites on how to make a bomb, how to hi-jack a car, and how to use a gun, among other delinquencies.
Another chance to solve this situation of censorship would be to filter rubbish information on people’s computer system so that this filter can block children from gaining access to any web sites that include categories like XXX pages. However, it must be mentioned that this blocking program makes it almost impossible for students to do sophisticated research projects on the Internet. I think that if parents feel the need to keep their child away from the dangers of the Internet, they can use a filtering program on their computer. Censoring the Internet for children is not as big a problem as a lot of people make it out to be. The Internet can be a very safe and helpful resource for children to learn and research.

VIOLENCE ON TV

Violence is everywhere. We see it in the streets, back alleys, school, and even at home. The last of these is a major source of violence. In many peoples' living rooms there sits an outlet for violence that often goes unnoticed. It is the television, and the children who view it are often pulled into its realistic world of violence scenes with sometimes devastating results.
Research shows that it is definitely a major source of violent behavior in children. The research proves time and time again that aggression and television viewing do go hand in hand. The truth about television violence and children has been shown. Some are trying to fight this problem. Others are ignoring it and hoping it will go away. Still others don't even seem to care. However, the facts are undeniable. The studies have been carried out and all the results point to one conclusion: Television violence causes children to be violent and the effects can be life-long. The information can't be ignored. Violent television viewing does affect children. The effects have been seen in a number of cases. Some children think they are Spiderman or another super hero and can cause an unfortunate situation. Or when watching an action film just by learning how and where to hit or kick. These are certainly some examples of how television can affect the child.
Not only does television violence affect the child's youth, but it can also affect his or her adulthood. Some psychologists and psychiatrists feel that continued exposure to such violence might unnaturally speed up the impact of the adult world on the child. This can force the child into a kind of premature maturity. As the child matures into an adult, he can become bewildered, have a greater distrust towards others, a superficial approach to adult problems, and even an unwillingness to become an adult
Also the children find the violent characters on television fun to imitate. Children do imitate the behaviour of models such as those portrayed in television, movies, etc. They do so because the ideas that are shown to them on television are more attractive to the viewer than those the viewer can think up himself.
Perhaps the most important way to prevent children from watching television violence is to stop it where it starts. The parents should step in and turn the set off when a violent program comes on. The parents are the child's role models from which he learns. If he can learn at an early age that violence on television is bad, then he can turn the set off for himself when he is older.

My friends

My parents view about gays sometimes disappoints me. My best friends are gays. They are great. Why should I deny my friendship to them? Of course, I may never follow my parents’ retrograde ideas about who to consider “good people”. Come on, It not all on how you look like! But, it is who you are and how authentic a person can be! And believe me they are the most sincere ones when something happens to me or to them. I have always found my same sex more attractive so it’s hard to judge their likes or dislikes. I just can tell you can trust on them a lot. As other people may trust o their best friends. I am not trying to say that I trust on gays but I trust on my friends. Because that is what they really are!
I grew up as a young child with a strong rooted based belief of Roman Catholicism and that played a good part in my way of seeing life at the very beginning. I hated people different from me whether it was related to sex, or ethnicity. You see… I was not a “good Christian at all”. Years passed and I started to change my way of thinking…thanks God.!... Many doors opened to me, work, studies, and independence. So I met other people from different regions, from different backgrounds. And there, I met these beautiful people who taught me a lot about life and friendship. My questions here is why is it so hard for society to accept them? And why does the gays and lesbians have to hide from everyone else? A positive thing here is that gays and lesbians in Argentina are no longer iding as it was used to a decade ago. Quite the opposite they show their feelings freely.I tell our society that today the Gay and Lesbian community make up OUR AND YOUR SOCIETY. Hey, brothers accept them! Give them a chance to live.
Do you think a gay person has the chance to change back to a heterosexual person again?! why should they change the way their lifestyles when you don’t want to adapt to changes?

Nightmare

All the things that give you a chill down your back, or hide under your covers at night. Every individual has their own fear, but we all seem to get fears from our nightmares. According to some experts, people’s dreams represent what they wish for. Different feelings such as fears, hopes, and stresses spring out in dreams or nightmares. Sometimes it seems that you can not wake up, or you do but you live the terrifying life of your nightmare that is if you do not die in the process.
Maria de Todos los Angeles was a girl in her twenties who has been having weird experiences lately. She heard voices everywhere. She couldn’t quite make out her surroundings, nor could she stay without the company of her parents who encouraged her to forget the voices. But, she couldn’t stop this. The voices asked her to help them find the truth. “the truth of what?”, the girl said. Maria de Todos los Angeles felt her heart beating faster as the voices approached to her even more closely towards her ear. She tried to calm down but something inside wouldn’t let her. She suddenly found her self among sweated sheets in her bedroom. Juana, her sister, said: “Don’t worry Maria, I am here with you”. Suddenly sounds came from downstairs. Both sisters came down the stairs just in case. Nobody was there. Only PIPI the sisters’ black cat. Then voices of people filled the air as Maria run upstairs grabbing her sister by her arm.” Have you heard?” said Maria. “Yes, who were they?” answered Maria’s sister. “They are the dead people who want me to help”. “To help? Doing what!?” The girls hurriedly looked around and decided to make contact with these voices right that moment so that everything could take its right order. Making her way to the bathroom, she heard them talking there. The girls turned on the light, and stood in terrifying fear in front of the mirror. On the mirror, people covered with blood were waiting the girls’ help. The last thing heard was the slamming of the door of the bathroom.Maria’s nightmare was coming to an end.

Silence in my soul

Have you forgot all sense of place and duty?
My conscience once said
I am ashamed of myself.
I can not write good things
not those what the Master wants.
He is cool and reserved
but I don't know what to do to improve
my reading and writing skills.
Very well then ,I thought, I am not drunk now;
I am only insane
I can speak well, well enough may I say
but my writing skills sucks even till yesterday.
May I fell unworthy of my place after ten years of martyrdom
I try to reborn again.
may I complete my task on earth?
I bleed still
I am hurt to death...
ah..and don't post commentaries about my mental health

Comment after watching the film “Erin Brockovich”

The pollution of water can still be regarded as one of the most controversial issues among environmentalists. For the past decades, water pollution has been paid closer attention to. So high was the interest in water poisoning that even films have appeared. Erin Brockovich is one of them. Based on true facts, this movie captures the consequences of water contamination in Hinkley, California. Water pollution encourages scientists to consider the key causes and plausible effects on men’s lives.

On the one hand, many causes can be mentioned. Some of these reasons are fertilizers used in agriculture, toxic waste and pollutants emitted by power stations and by industries. These factories discharge poisonous effluents and chemicals on rivers, lakes and streams. Take the case of the PG and E industry which uses hexavalent chromium as industrial cleaner in its machinery and containers. These last ones did not have an adequate protection. Hence, the chemical substances filter through the different layers of the soil, contaminating underground water and making it unfit for human consumption.

Furthermore, Hinkley residents have fallen sick and some of them have gone terminally ill. This is due to the fact that most Hinkley residents rely on this water for drinking, swimming and bathing. In this way, Hinkley’s inhabitants have contracted incurable cancerigenous illnesses which are passed on genetically. Besides damage to human’s health, water contamination may also affect the whole environment, including animals and plants. The arable lands turn into contaminated sandy soils. Consequently, domestic agricultural production falls and a shortage of food supply follows. Food sources also involves a decrease in number of farm animals since they are the first ones to feel the environmental impact. Farm animals like people have gone sick and then they die.

All in all, it must be said that water pollution is a current environmental topic nowadays. The relevance of this subject is based mostly upon the damage on man’s health. A very-well-illustrated fact that shocked the public opinion is the remarkable true story of PG and E Company which ruined Hinkley residents’ lives, from environmental problems to human’s health.




Our thoughts

How brief the life of man is,
Many fellows wonder about…
Go and live life as fast as you can
Others say.
Why can’t it be a desert if it is unpeopled of what one really wants?
How can you show me your right cheek
and forget your heart?
How heavens! Should I know
the different hearts and chests that I will touch?
I preferred to be heard
than to be alive.
Whatever men may judge me I am happy what I am.
Nobody gets what I don’t want
Men do their part
But, what can they do without us?
May they buy more than a pet o race in red sport cars??
Are they aware about what this can in chance result?
Nobody knows what they are thinking about.
They have the ability to praise you while seeing a good buck.
Nature leads us to react, so don’t worry
Just let the thing to go around.
