Moments worth living

There are some moments or people that make our lives worth living, those moments and people create a sensation of peace and excitement inside us, like when we eat some scabrous food, or we a good spend time with someone we like or we go on a trip to somewhere great and have fun.
One example of that feeling that happened to me, was when I went to Rio de Janeiro for the first time, I spent nine days there, and had a great time with my brothers and my sister.

In my opinion, the life was made to be enjoyed, and that is what we should do, and try to live our lives as happier has we could.

In today's world, to improve ours life quality, we've to find things that makes us happy.For that, ours family is always something we can be with to share ours feelings, ours relatives, brothers or sisters, sons, and others are the people who you can trust.
However, these aren't the only persons who can make living worth, ours friends are the people who can provide us a lot of happiness, with they you can go out and have fun all night long, the most real friends we've. the most happy you'll be.Beyond persons, for a good life we have to let ours feelings talk sometimes, there is when the sports and love come, this things that make you do follies put some spice in life, there are a kind of fuel.In my life the football and basketball have this role, they can make me happy always when I'm upset with something or someone, o they really have a big importance in my life.
And the last thing I thing I think worth ours life is my religion witch gives me always a way to follow or some light when I really don't know in some situations.
So this is what I think makes ours life worth living, with this things I'm a really happy person.

Moments worth living




In our daily life, not aways we can do the activities that we like and sometimes we get too long without do what we really like. However, even if we can´t see it, we may be living beautiful moments, moments worth living.
For example, being with our families and our friends are moments in wich life is worth living, and they happen every days of our lives. Related to the above moments, we can cite other moments worth living like out with your friends and families, play soccer with them, and do anything with these people.
There are too, moments worth living that may be connected to yourself, are moments that happen where you are, cause they are connected to our feelings. A good example of one of those "permanents moments worth living" is be Atleticano. The Galo is part of every moments of your life and be Atleticano is really a reason worth living, because it causes an inexplicable good felling.
So, for those who read this post, I leave the following message: in our life we pass by several moments and sometimes we forget to value many of these moments. However, if we pass to look for these moments in a different way, we can see that a lot of these moments are moments worth living.

Voices from the list


The documentary about the movie "Schindler´s List" tells a story of many jews who were saved by Oskar Schindler. In this documentary these reports are made by the onws survivors jews.
Those jews passed for experiences of almost death on the Concentration Camps, where they were humiliated by the Nazis.Also, in these camps the jews were forced to work and many were killed.
The jews start the documentary telling what happenend with their people in Poland, where they worked for Oskar in his factory and lived on the "ghetto". After this, the survivors tells about the beginning of the Schindler´s list, motivated by the removal of jews from ghettos and their transport by the Concentration Camps. When this part of the history is related, we can see the feeling of gratitude that the jews have by Oskar Schindler.
This documentary has left to us many lessons, and one the most important of these is the fact that only one person can make the diference and help a lot of people, like Oskar Schindler who "faced" the Nazis and saved a lot of jews.

Internet breaking up relationships



In today’s world, the population had improved a lot, and the relationships too, but, when it’s finished, people usually have arguments and break up, correct? Not any more!

With the advance of the technology and social networking, people are preferring to end a relationship by the internet, according to a research made by a web site called AreYouInterested, that discovered by interviewing people that they when they don’t know if the relationship is completed over, they go to their Facebooks and see if the other person has upgraded for ‘’single’’ their status, or if he wants to finish, he just change his atatus and don’t talk or see the other person any more.

However, this attitude of just give a click on a web site and never see the other person, can make some problems appear, for example, the other person can not believe, or wants too continue the relationship but can’t talk too their partner.

For me, this is a very serious matter to be dealt with only by internet, it has to be discussed with the two persons for them they upgrade their Facebooks.

Relationship - The Marriage


In today´s world, is increasingly difficult find marriages succesful and lasting like the marriages at the time of our grandfathers, for example. The marriage is losing its essence and the separation is increasingly common.
Actually, you can see many loving couples where the partners, that know each other little, says that love each other. Its cause a trivialization of the love, that is the essence of the marriage contract, and this trivialization is one reason for the large number of separations that we see nowadays.
However, this change in the marriages is a normal consequence of freer society in which we live. The separation already is a normal thing and happens until in families with children, in many cases, simply because one of the partners have found a more interesting person. Some peoples understand that the love promised to his partner at the altar, is only valid while last the marriage.
In our opinion, the goal of the marriage is not choose the best pair possible around the world, but built the best possible relationship with the people that you promised to love forever. The marriage is learn to live with other people, respecting theirs faults and differences, but many couples can´t, and many others don´t try, which makes that the marriage becoming increasingly less sustainable.

When the network becomes an addiction


Everyone knows that nowadays people have Internet access at an earlier age. However, many people become extremely attached to the Internet and the number of peoples that are addicts for the network is increasing.
To have a notion about the size of this problem, we can look at the numbers divulged by the Centro de Recuperação para Dependência de Internet, located in the United States, according to which, the share of addicts in the various countries studied, is 5% (as in Brazil) to 10% of users – with concentration in the range of 15 to 29 years. Also according to the institute, the internet addict has similar behavior with the addicted to alcohol or drugs, having a rare moment of euphoria when he is in front of the computer.
It isn´t easy to see when using the Internet becomes unhealthy. People who consider themselves addicted to the Internet say that the Internet like a distraction gives place at a essential thing in their lives, without anyone see.
Although difficult, the science has already mapped the first symptoms of this disease. First time spent on the Internet increase, reaching an incredible 14 hours daily. Moreover, the appearance of dark circles and changes in diet, as the exchange of foods that require utensils for sandwiches (so that one hand can stay on the keyboard) are other indications that the user should seek the help of a specialist.
