My Commitments..

All the things that are happening right now we see them as there’s no end for all that. If we continue to think that way there’s no way one day we will change our world to a better one. We know that everything is related with money that’s why people do whatever it takes in order to receive money. Money can be beneficial but it can be harmful too, but most of the time people are so ambitious that’s why all what is occurring right now is for that. In order to make peace you need to start changing the way of thinking.We cannot let things expand more each day a lot of innocent people are killed even kids and that’s not fair. What I mean with that is that we need to be right persons all the time we cannot let money change our toughts and that actually be obedience and  respect. Obedience the way we follow rules and respect would be the different ways we act with people. This would make a better future that would bring peace to the world. A future commitments is being a helful person all the time. If you help others and if you show them that you care for them you are going to put a smile on every people's face. Just doing the correct decisions will create a good future commitment and will generate good habits for everybody. So don't be a heater just leave the world as it is but with no violence, live it, enjoy it and be happy :) ..........

Massacre in Ciudad Juarez


I don’t understand why the government from Juarez doesn’t do anything!! If you’re watching TV, or listening to the radio you are going to hear that each day they are probably killing around 10 people. There are a lot of innocent people who died for no reason and that’s sad to know that now in days the people is not respecting anything. This passed October 22, 2010 there was a family celebrating a birthday party when masked men entered the home. A gunmen knocked on the door of the house and asked for if ‘’El Raton’’ was there unfortunately people did not recognized that guy. Is when they decided to open fire on everyone that was in the party. They shut men, children, women and even pregnant women. The gunmen killed 14 people WHO’S age ranged from 30 to 13 years old, and a total of 19 injured was the result. It is said that the boy was celebrating his 15th birthday; his parents were officially living in El Paso illegally and therefore got deported. Some people say that drugs were being sold in that house, but rumors are still not a cleared fact.  They don’t even care to killed innocent people is like if they don’t have feelings towards them but those people don’t even have a heart. I don’t know why all this things are happening and the government from Mexico doesn’t move at all. I hope that one day Juarez would be like it was before but a miracle has to occur in order to have peace in Juarez.

The Coalition For The Adolescent Girls



As time passed a lot of things occur in life. Sometimes we don’t expect something to happen, but that’s how life it is it gives us a lot of surprises either good or bad. Even when the bad things happen life needs to continue we cant stop it and pretend like if nothing has passed. By the way the girls are the ones who suffer more, they are the ones who are more sentimental persons. The girls passed for a lot of different stages in life and sometimes the men’s treat women’s bad. For instance some time ago girls weren’t able to success in life but now there are organizations for adolescents girls to succeed in their future.

That organization is The Coalition For Adolescent Girls as we can tell is especially for girls. Those people who didn’t thought girls weren’t able to success in life their wrong. Girls are the ones who can change the world they are most powerful force for a change. If girls don’t go to school her alternative is the path laid down poverty. Like this organization says ‘’ Her tragedy multiplied by the 600 million adolescent girls through the developing to the endless cycle poverty.’’ That’s why this organization is about to break down the cycle of poverty.

The purpose of this is to ensure that teenage girls make the right choices to their future. It explains many situations of how it cannot permit them to succeed in their lives. For example a lot of adolescent girls put reports about their situations they have passed trough. A girl has the power to the change of her life she can’t stay the same as she was yesterday. If she stays healthy, remain in school and gains skills, she will be someone in her life. Poverty will knock on her door if she stops going to school and marries very young because she will not reach her full human potential.

The link offers public-private partnership, ‘’ the Coalition’’ to help girls with a positive change in their communities. Their accomplishment is to help 600 million adolescent girls to develop their human potential and be able to reach their goals in their lives. They communicate through e-mail and links to discourse practices of this agency. The necessitates is poverty and personal problems. If we have any questions or thoughts they give us their mail ‘’info@coalitionforadolescentgirls.org’’. They also have their own page if we want to get involved in their organizations to receive the latest news and activities for the Coalition.

The Coalition For Adolescent Girls is only for women’s. But members of this organization also created avenues to encourage participation in the movement. This will allow anyone to become a champion for girls; Students, parents, family, friends can drive change faster than money or influence. The authors of this organization find out that staying in school for adolescence brings benefits to girls during a high risk phase of life.

Building Peace Greag Mortenson 'Video'

It's hard to imagine how the world is different from one place to another, not all the cultures are the same. Sometimes we don't even think that there's people suffering for a lot of different things we just think for ourselves. In this world exist good things but also the bad things too. There's gentle people that help others, but other people are just cruel with each other. When I was watching this video it really open my eyes because it shows you that life is not that easy as we thought.

Greag Mortenson show us in this video that to bring peace and hope education is really important. It also tell us that educating a girl to at least fifth grade it does 3 important things. Education is the key to success in life and can make progress. As I was watching this video I can tell that the kids were happy by being at school and just by looking at their eyes we can see their joyful. The Central Asia Institute help Pakistan with so many different ways just so the people can continue their education. After seen this video what came to my mine was without education you wouldn't be something in life, that's why finish school is really important.

''An enemy is a person whose story we have not heard'' By: Quaker Peace Activist Gene Knudson Hoffman

 
            I don't think that an enemy is a person whose story we have not heard. What I mean with that is that in order to have an enemy they need to know us so that they can have hate for us. You need to know how that person is with others or even with you. In order to have enemies for my opinion is to have odious to that person for something bad they did like talking against you. That's a mistake a lot of people make that before knowing a person they criticize just by the way they look. That's one point when I consider a person to be my enemy because without knowing them I wouldn't be able to have rancour. 


          You can even meet someone and just by the way they treat you, you can tell if they are a good influence for you. Without knowing how they are or even their past it's really hard to say that they could be an enemy. That's why I'm a person that all the time wants to meet new people and I'm friendly with others because I don't want to have enemies. What can I say about this code is that I'm not agree with it because in order to have enemies there's need to be a reason for that and it just can't happen without knowing the person.
