"OUR SHADES" María Teresa Budge


If I have to choose a book that really has impressed me this one is “Our Shades”. It is a very beautiful book that I read when I was twelve years old, it was the unique book that made me read in the school that really I liked.
“Our Shades” is about a cheerful girl called Patricia who from one day to the next must confront the separation of her parent, being she and its Nora sister to the care of old and a bitter aunt Melania. This one was a gift of its father, who wrote from her daughter in last page “our shades are greater than we ourself “.
In this place Patricia begins to write a life newspaper about all her sadnesses and the situations that live in house of Melania Aunt. This Girl thinks every day about her father who is an important doctor reason why always he is abroad and in his mother who takes one more a life more disorganized enjoying the celebrations with her friends.
Just when the relation with its bitter aunt begins to improve, this one becomes ill seriously and it dies, which was a blow very it last for Patricia, who now must live single with its Eduvigis aunt, right hand of Melania aunt.
Patricia also falls seriously ill, she spends a lot of time unconscious in a clinic. Time in that his father reads his newspaper of life. When wide-awake Patricia is in its house surrounded by people who love her and that are celebrating Christmas, in this moments their parents tell him that they have reconciled and his sister Nora is waiting for a baby.
This book impressed me because it is very sentimental and has a very deep message that I Interpreted like each human is gifted of potentialities, a POWER TO BE. I can be better in which I would like, always that inside me are those potentialities. Is very beautiful know that you can be more, that your being is even incomplete and the knowledge that you can improve day to day with thing that you learn.
I recommend this book to all people is really wonderful and there isn´t other book that has impressed me the same way.

TAKE CARE THE ENVIRONMENT!


The most places where people learn about enviromentaly friendly practices is in the school or before when they are attending kindergarten, here the educators must worry to educate to the children and children to respect the environment and to take care of it. Nevertheless the family is the main social institution ordered to transmit to children some values and practices basic norms that must include enviromentaly friendly.
People also learn this by messages of diverse organizations or corporations that are worried for protection of the environment. One of the forms to take care of the environment is recycling. In my case I believe that I`m not good developing recycling practices because in house we are not customary to separate the remainders. Nevertheless some time we don`t deposit glasses at the waste basket but we leaved it in a big drum that is near to my house in aid of the children of COANIQUEM (The Corporation of Aid to the Burned Boy)
Other times my mother is worried of separate cardboard boxes, packages and newspapers that is useless for us in house.
A main factor at time to take care of the environment is the means of transports. In my case I am in the obligation to use public transport to go to University because I live so far of this. But if the distance were shorter I would like go by bicycle, it would be funny and very good for health (is a very good form to do exercise).
I never have been in some organization who promotes the care of the environment because I haven`t inquired about these, but I try to participate in the call which the organizations make to take care of means, hurling the sweepings where she corresponds.
To future, in my profession I would like to stimulate the children so that they can promote its families to develop harvesting techniques and well-taken care of means and to be generating from smallest they brings back to consciousness social collective
Our society needs to realize of if we now did not worry to take care of our means, the consequences will even affect to the future generations and even the quality of life in the present.
