New Year New Me

Welcome 2015!

 

           

When the New Year comes, around it seems like the perfect time for self-improvement.

            Lives in the year 2014 are now just memories, whether it was good or bad, happy or sad. As a day goes by and clock ticks before the midnight of December 31^st 2014 my minds starts to think of the past, realizing what have I done right or wrong to my life. Looking back at the time, I was addicted to face book, I sued it on my phone and it was the most viewed site on my computer. I almost failed at my first periodical test because I was on face book when I was supposed to be studying. Today, New Year, New Life, and it’s are for change. All I want is to focus in my studies, especially now that I’m a graduating student of high school, and I will be in College soon. First, I just want to use internet if needed, I will be thrifty; I will not just buy and buys some stuffs, finish all my requirements before playing gadgets or making fun with friends. And of course I will act as a true lady and not just a childish one because I realize that I’ve grown up a lot, and I must go through it. That’s it; I just hope I can do it.

            For anyone who’s serious about resolutions, making them is brave. We just need to do some honest assessment of what’s working and not working in our lives, we need to consider where we want to head I these year. New Year resolution isn’t meant to change your life, they’re just a nice tradition, but serious resolutions mean the year is going to be a challenge for you to be a better person.

"Essence of Christmas"

Joy to the world, the lord has come. Let earth receive her king. One of the most common song played and sing by all ages.

Christmas, what does it mean? Children awaits Christmas because of the presents they will get. But Christmas is not the time of gift giving alone. It is time of love and unity. Christmas is a season where we should celebrate the birth of our savior. Celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ does not mean having a lot of food, during the Noche Buena, wearing a new clothes and shoes, receiving gifts or attending Christmas parties. Nowadays especially the young generations, this is how they elaborate Christmas. We should be reminded that Christmas is the season where we should give time to Jesus Christ. It is right to give thanks to Him to all the blessings, He showered upon us. Christmas is giving and forgiving. Material things are just secondary. We should bear in our minds what Jesus Christ died for us. We can only repay him by doing good especially to others.

For me, the true essence of Christmas is, it’s a time to show love, sharing, reconciliation, and relationships. A time for getting together, and a time to remember of all the sacrifices of Jesus Christ and to greet him a happy birthday. 

Climate Change

   

 Climate change is one factor of many diseases which destroy our health and environment. The environment is made up of land water and air. Many plants and animals are found on land; others live in water; and some fly in the air. Land is soil, rocks, mountains and others landforms. Water is oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, streams and ponds. The layers of air around form atmosphere,  a mixtures of several gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and others.

                Changes happen around us all the time. Changes may take hours or days to complete. Weather is an example. Air temperature and amount of water vapor in the atmosphere vary. Sometimes it is warm, at other times, cool. There may be so much water in the air at one time and very little at another time. There are also activities of people that may cause changes in the environment like using chemical substances that pollutes lands, water and air, quarrying trees, using dynamite for fishing and burning plastics, instead we should recycle these materials for our own good. In cities, factories are built to produce goods to be sold at high prices .These factories are sources of pollutants such as chemicals poisoning the rivers and black smoke causing respiratory diseases. All these activities contribute climate change that can affect our health. 

                Clean environment is healthy place to live in, free from pollution and diseases. Therefore we should do something, we should help another. Avoid using chemical substance that destroy our environment and avoid doing something that may cause a dirty environment.
