God



Do you believe in God?

God it’s a supreme deity adore for some religions.

In some of these religions, for example Christianity, God is creator of the universe. But well, it’s a topic very difficult for talk with another people, because each person has one opinion different, so… It's more complicated than you think.

For me, God doesn’t exist. God is a convention, is a support for believe in something more perfect than the humans.

Nowadays there are not many people that believe in God or that follow one specific religion, less and less the adolescents believe in this “deity”, furthermore, I thing that will arrive one day that for the people, God will disappear. But well, that’s a think that we can’t know today.

Michael Jackson - "Man in the mirror"


Michael Jackson is an American artist, entertainer, and businessman. He have six brothers more, he debuted on the professional music scene at the age of 11, and began a solo career.He became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African-American entertainer to amass a strong crossover following on MTV and has donated and raised millions of dollars for beneficial causes. However, other aspects of his personal life, including his changing appearance and eccentric behavior, generated significant controversy which damaged his public image. Though he was accused of child sexual abuse in 1993, the criminal investigation was closed due to lack of evidence and Jackson was not charged. He then married twice and fathered three children, all of which caused further controversy. In 2005, Jackson was tried and acquitted of further sexual abuse allegations and several other charges. He has been cited as one of the world's most famous men.Why I talk about Michael Jackson? Because I’ll present you one song that I really like (And I’ll translate this song in my portfolio: http://gemmasportfolio.blogspot.com/) and now, you have more information about the singer.

JORGE BUCAY



Jorge Bucay was born in 1949, is a gestalt psychotherapist, psychodramatist and writer from Argentina. His books are very fantastics, have sold more than 2 million copies around the world and translated in more than seventeen languages.
He was born in
Buenos Aires to a modest family. He started working at thirteen years old. In his life, he has worked as a socks, books and sports clothing traveling salesman, insurance agent, cabdriver, clown, warehouseman, educator, actor, doctor on duty, host of children's parties, psychiatrist, group coordinator, radio collaborator, and television host. (In my opinion, It's incredible...)
In 1973, he graduated as a doctor from the
University of Buenos Aires, and specialized in mental illnesses at the Hospital of Buenos Aires.
He defines his job as professional helper. He divides his attention among conferences of therapeutic teaching, which have taken him around the world, and the writing of his books, which he says are therapeutic tools.


I have a lot of his books, and I think that's a real and effective remedy. (I don't have any mental problem, but I like the stories who write).

CATHIE JUNG AND HER WAIST.


Cathie Jung can show off her waist, it’s very little and measure 38 cm. It’s “the kind of corset” and she have the record Guinness for the waist more little in the world because she used the corset 24 hours.The women, who have 68 years old, say that she began to use the corset when she has 40 years old because she has admiration with the Victoriana clothes types, that stylize the waist of the woman of 19th century.
Jung says that she breathes perfectly and the only thing that she can’t do is sit down in a chair very low. She eats little portions salutary and she’s healthy.

It's amazing!!

The invention of ice-cream


In ancient Rome snow was brought from the mountains. After that it was discovered that snow cools wine and after that, the frozen snow was mixed with honey, juices and fruit to make icy desserts.
That is how ice-cream was once invented. In the begining, it was eatten only bt kings and queens, but eventually it was served to ordinary people too. When it was introduced ina Paris café in 1670, people had loved it inmediately. Today, ice-cream is enjoyed by people all over the world. Althrough occacionally someone doesn't like it. Usually, however, most of us can never get enough once we start eating it, in all the seasons of the year.

STRADIVARIUS VIOLIN


A stradivarius violin was sold for 902 paunts, the highest prince ever paid for a Stradivarius.

The violin, owned by yhe Mendelsson family, was made in 1720 and, because of its colour, it was known as the "Red Strad". It was played bt a professional musician.

In its year in the Mendelsson family, it was admired very little, except by amateurs, but its beautiful tones were demostrate by a a Japanese violinist before the auction yesterday.

It's in very good condition because it was kept a special case. The violin reached such a high price because of its date of 1720, when his finest instruments were made. Stradivarius was bought all over the world for their purity and deep, clear sound.

I play the violin since I was seven years old, and play one Stradivarius it's a dream for me.

The American family and TV.


The American family hasn't got time to sit down and watch TV, declared the NEWYORK TIMES in 1939 predicting that TV would never become as popular as radio. By 1990, however, American children between the ages of 2 and 5 were wathcing on average of 27 hours of TV a week. The consequences, acording to one professor of the School of Public health and community Medecine in Washinton, are catastrophic. Little children do not distinguish fact from fiction.

They do not undestrand but they absorb. Above all, they absorve violence as something exciting and efficient. The results of this early experience of violence only start to become a parent 10 to twelve years later.

When the children are old enough to cause socil problems. If there would be 10000 less murders per year in the USA.



I think that's incredible... And you?
