Memories

Our memories are considered to be one of the priceless things that we own and that is true because no money can afford for them. Our memories exists due to the experience that we gone through in our life and so in those memories we remember our efforts,losses and winnings.
For example,i remember the first time i read a book,i think i was in the first grade when i read it,the book was from disney,it was Bambi.I took at least 30 to 45 minutes to read the whole book and the book only had 24 pages and half of them were simply pictures,but please give me a break because like i said i was still in first grade and so i was still learning and trying to improve my linguistic skills so it was a major winning to me.The funny thing about this book was that this children´s book was a passage to other more complex books and occasionally comics, books like The Maias by Eça De Queirós,The Art Of War by Sun Tzu, How to learn to speak easily by Dale Carnegie and many other fascinating books that i read since Bambi and so i wiil always treasure the first memory that i have of reading a book.
This such shows that our memories they are not simple things to remember,they are teachings that we get and stay with us until the end of our life,but we can also pass them in order to remain in other people if we tell them like i am doing right now telling you the first book and the next ones that i read since fisrt grade until now.

Comment about The Richenbach Fall of Sherlock

Sherlock´s episode ,The Richenbach Fall, is a brilliant duality between good and evil, because on one side we have the astonishing and clever world known detective Sherlock Holmes and his loyal friend and partner Watson representig the good (justice) and on the other is the intelligent and terrifying criminal mastermind Moriarty the only one whose intellectual power is equal to Sherlock himself.

This is indeed one of the best episodes of Sherlock series because we can see Sherlock for the first time fighting against someone who is a true genius such like him,well in a way Moriarty and Sherlock are very similar one to another, due to the way they talk, act and how they see things that other people don´t see or find it too difficult to see or understand.

In my opinion the final scene is ,of course, the best one because it´s full of heroism,the hero (Sherlock) ´´sacrifices`` himself,and has a lot of emotional and mysterious content.

The Richenbach Fall of Sherlock series is worthy to the eyes of those who are interest in mystery and crime series and so i advise them to see such an amazing episode and also the serie Sherlock.

What makes you a globalized person?

 Globalization, the word alone makes you think of a whole, of something integrated, well and that’s exactly what globalization means. The world is losing its barriers, people are aware of each other’s culture, status, knowledge and way of being. And this was made easier by the advances of instant communication and technology.

 That is why any person that considers themselves globalized needs to have some kind of instant communication vehicle whether it is the computer, the television, or even something that can combine these two, an average smart phone, nowadays to be in contact with the world and all of what’s happening around we just check our phones. Whether we want to check the weather, the stock market, politics, updates on current humanitarian campaigns people have unlimited access to information of any sort.

 I think I speak for a lot of people in my generation when I say that, I can’t live without my phone, everything I want to do I can often use my phone, since this revolution of Smartphone’s came out I have been paying less attention to the TV and to the computer that used to be the only way I got daily updated information on what was happening throughout the world.

 So I think it’s safe to say that the object that makes me a globalized person is in fact the telephone.

What’s your opinion?
