My best job

When I was seventeen, an opportunity to work at a clinic amalysis laboratory was like a door oppened to me because I needed a job. It was near my house about seven minutes, so I could go there at the lunch. I was excited about my first job.

First of all, I receieved a special training, and slowly I began to collect blood from patients. Actually, the first time, I was more nervous than the patient, a tall young man that was collecting blood to go to the Army. Much to my delight, when he saw the needle he close his eyes.

Little by little I began to like to do that and I became acquainted with needles, test tubes, centrifuges, pregnancy tests, etc.

I worked there for four years, and it was my best job because the people there were very nice, the environment was different and new, and I could feel that I was doing a very important job. The salary wasn't so good, but I learned a lot.

Spring in Salem!

Spring is one of the four temperate seasons, the transition period betwen winter and summer. Spring and springtime refer to the season and bring us ideas of rebirth, renewal and regrowth.

Obs.: I took this pictures!

Matthew Henson

Today Matthew Henson is remembered as a truly remarkable and well loved man; one who helped others, never spoke unkindly or harbored anger, was enthusiastic, and highly skilled in many disciplines. When men were starving and no food could be hunted, Henson declared he would find game - and he returned with fresh meat to keep them alive. When others could not go on, he carried them home. When even the indomitable Peary felt they were going to die he gained courage when he looked at Matthews face.
The public of 1910 had no place for an African-American hero; so Henson was never given the recognition he earned through the 18 years and 7 highly dangerous, difficult Arctic journeys he endured with Peary. His rewards and recognition came gradually. In the 1930's he was made a member of the New York Explorers Club of which Peary had once been the President. All the other famous explorers knew how valuable Matt had been at the North Pole. Freuchen, Stefansson, MacMillan, Bartlett and others kept close friendships with him.

Kissing Customs

The customs of kissing today, as well as an acient times, serves to show respect, and to pay homage to another. One Roman emperor even ranked a person's importance by the body part he was allowed to kiss. For example, early Romans kissed each other on the mouth or on the eyes to greet one another. He allowed important nobles to kiss his lips, less important ones to kiss his hands, and the least important ones to kiss his feet.

There is a story that tell us about an american man that was to Poland and he found difficulty about to how to greet the women just because he felt embareced to kiss their hand.

This is a very interesting story. I know that's a part of story but it captivates us from begining to end. The princess has an important decision to take that is, whether to send her lover to the lady or to the tiger from a simple movement of her hand. But nobody knows that she loves him desperatly. Now, in the arena, her lover turned and looked at her. His eyes met hers and ask the question: "Which?"

Perhaps it was the lady who came out. The princess might have chosen that door because it would be better to have her lover alive but married, than dead. In future, she could think about this, and how to approach him, but for the meantime it would be the only way to keep him alive. Who loves does not kill.

On the other hand, perhaps it was the tiger, If she had chosen this door, it would have mean that she had an egocentric love: “neither for me nor for you”. After she might repent and would weep bitterly for life, feeling guilty.

Personally, I think that our choices determine our future and we must choose wisely about the things that challenge us.

The father and his daughter

A little girl was given so many picture books on her seventh birthday that her father thought her should give one or two to a little neighbor boy named Robert, who had dropped in, more by design than by chance. A few weeks later, the father went to his library to look up " father" in the Oxford English Dictionary, and he realized that was missing four volumes. After a little probe he discovered that his daughter has given four volumes to a man "much nicer than Robert", she said.


Actually, that father souldn't complain about his daughter because he taught her to share her possessions. It's so easy and nice to tell the children what they should or shouldn't do, but we must be careful not to be hypocrites...
He needs to live what he teaches. If he doesn't want to share his things with others, he should not expect that his daughter share too.
