Kids
I work at a elementary school as a Recreational leader, I have third grade and they are an amazing group. I have noticed that that kids are less innocent, at least they do not think they way I used to think when I was a third grader. The other day I heard a kid saying that he had a girlfriend and that they had s.e.x., I was like in shock, obviously they are not, I hope, but it seems like their minds are more aware of whats going on around them. Maybe society is taking that innocence from the kids, by not acknowledge them, I mean, is not their fault, tv is full of sex, violence and drugs, also adults do not mind cursing in front of kids, I think we should all do something about it because kids are the future, and even though that phrase is overrated it is true. Kids should be kids, and I think society have not acknowledge the fact that we are examples of the kids, therefore we should always be careful for what we say infront of them, mostly partens. Also I think the problem is that many parents are having babies by accident, and they are not prepare to raise a child, so this children grow up without a good example.

Growing up!
So, as I was seating in my bedroom having a break from packing up my stuff, thinking about what could I write for my blog, I realized how fast does time pass, I mean I remember being a freshman coming to my first day of school in the university, getting homesick and missing my friends and family. Now, I am living on my own, working, going to school, and ready to move out to my new apartment with my best friend, Wow! Time passes and really fast, I mean it feels like yesterday when I graduate form highschool. It is scary, well, at least for me, I mean I am an adult know and sometimes I don't really feel like an adult, maybe I don't want to, maybe in the future I will be sitting down thinking about my college days, and I'll feel the same. Does it feels like that to you too? Is it just me, or Time is really passing by extremely fast? What do you think?

Cause and Effect
What is cause and what is effect? What is first, is the effect that makes the cause, or the cause makes the effect? In order to know the cause you need to ask yourself why did it happen? And in order to know the effect you have to ask yourself what happened? There is always a cause and an effect for everything, but the question is how many times the effect happens right after the cause and how sometimes the effect never happnes. For example smoking, I know many people who smoke cigarrettes and they don't develop cancer, but others that don't even somke are dying because of cancer. It seems to me that not all the time the effect happens after a cause. What is it that control the cause and effect on things and events, is it luck? Why is it that for things like chemestry you had two chemicals and you have a reaction but in real life you do something good or bad and sometimes you dont have an effect right away?

Is God Fair?
What is the concept that most people have from God? God is Love, God is Justice, God is Fair? I do believe in God, but sometimes I doubt about how fair is God? I went to Egypt last year, and I am from Mexico, and some of the conditions where people live are extremely unfair, people dying from poverty with no education at all. Many will argue that it is because they are lazy or they don't want to work. But some of the people were just born in those conditions, and they don't even have anything to star from because in those countries education and the jobs opportunities are so low. So who do we blame? Is it the government of those countries? Is it the ancestors of the people living in those conditions who made wrong choices for their people and thats why they live in those conditions? Or is it just that life is unfair? Why is it that there are some people that were just born in good conditions and they get to have a lot of things? When there is others that they don't even have food to eat? Is it God the responsible? It is hard to believe that God is the responsible for all this cruelty.It brakes my heart every time I see how we have a lot of things to be thankful for and how we still take everything we have for granted, I think maybe we will never understand why life is unfair, but maybe God just give more to certain people so they can be the change for others. So lets start thinking of others instead of just thinking on us and let's be the change!
