When You Find me

To my grand children that one day will look for me and probably not find me. It's March 26, 2010 at about 1:18pm and I'm here writing about what i have been through in my life so you can get to know me. My name is Itzel Darleen Perez Galvan and I'm 16 years old. I was born on January 1st, 1994 in San Diego, California. I have one older brother and a younger brother and a younger sister. Jared Moroni Perez Galvan is my older brother, he's 17 and turning 18 on May 15. Francisco J. Perex Galvan is my younger brother, he's 9 and turning 10 on July 5th. My little sister is Yazmin Azeneth Perez Galvan and she's 4 and turning 5 on April 6th. We are a united set of sibilings (we do fight just like and set opf siblings). I lived in San Diego till I was 4 then i moved to Denver, Colorado. When my parents saw that there was no jobs there we decided to move

The Beauty of Wisdom Teaching.

    Does is matter to you? Do you like making a difference? I think that some people just think in general and not individual. Maybe if I help one person its not going to make a difference to the world but i know for a fact it would make a difference to the person I'm helping. Why do people think that if they don't help a big group of people or animals then they're not help at all? I think that as long as you make a difference to one person or animal is a great thing. Yeah, I know that there are many people and animals that need help in the world, and maybe the world won't notice but as long as you and the person or animal notice is enough to be remembered. What is making a difference to you? To me making a difference is helping someone without getting anything in return. Making a difference is doing something for someone to make a difference to them and no one else. I thinks it's so nice when a teenage guy or girl helps a older lady with anything. I mean what can a older lady ask for? Sometimes just by letting them sit on your chair makes a difference to them. Everyone thinks they have to do something big for it to make a difference, but it's not like that; just by giving a smile to someone makes a difference to them because we don't know what they're going through.

Once a very wise person told me that to be able to make a difference you have to want to make it first.

     

The Great Debaters

"We do what we have to do in order to do what we want to do (Farmer, Jr, James)." Knowing that we have the option of doing what we want just by doing what we have to do makes me think about what I'm doing wrong. In the movie "The Great Debaters" they showed me that just by doing what you have to do can bring us to do what we want to do. This movie is a good movie look at for many reasons. you can watch it to learn how to debate and you can also watch it for historical learning. This movie really touched me to see how colored people were treated. I don't know how people could be so cruel. I'm so glad the debaters were working so hard to get their point across. I think this movie taught me so much about the past but it also taught how to get my point set across. I think it's always good to have some kind of resource, not only in a debate but also in your life.

The Beauty of Diegos Rivera's Art Work

This painting is called "La Molendera". This painting Is by Diego Rivera.This painting makes me feel proud of my culture because I can see how had the women of my culture use to work to make a few pesos. Now i know im not even half of the women they were because i don't do the things they do or they ever did; yea maybe I'm getting a better education then they ever had but just knowing how hard they would work to get what they had. Now a days we have things way easier than the women before, but maybe because im here in the United States. In Mexico people still suffer dor money and jobs. I think women from my generation need to take the example from our ancestors and appreciate what we have in life and not want more.
To me this women is like my Grandmother because my grandmother has been through so much for her family. Sometimes they didnt have enought money to buy food so all they would eat would be home made tortillas. From the stories my parents tell me; they didn't have much so my grandmother would just do the best she can to give her family and my mom something to eat.
