TO COME OR NOT TO COME?

There will be some time in your life when you have to make very crucial decisions. It happened to me before coming to England.

If I wanted to come with my family I had to pay for all their expenses(visas, tickets, accomodation, etc). My son was only two years old at that time and I didn’t know what to do. Some people suggested me to leave him with my mum. They said he would be very well looked after and he would get used to live without me.

A very good friend of mine, who is a mother as well, advised me to take him with me, even though it was going to be difficult, but she said that a child needs his/her mother more than anything else.

I am glad I took her advice. Though it has been hard, I have had the opportunity to see him grow and to be there for him as he has been for me.

I look forward to reading your dilemmas and the comments you are going to make!!!

Have you ever felt blue?

Now that I am in The United Kingdom, there are times when I feel blue , because I miss my family and friends. I would like to talk about my feelings, but there is nobody here I can talk to about that. Sometimes I´ve felt like going back home.

To have a more clear idea of what feeling blue means follow these instructions:

Click on the link below. Once you are there click on the image of the TV. Six small screens will appear. Click on the first screen of the first row. There is Big penguin and Paz. Watch the video and let’s comment about what makes you feel blue, green or purple and what you do about it.

What if we don't have a second chance?

In any relationship there will always be disagreements, because everybody is different and nobody is perfect. Between boyfriends and girlfriends rows are very common, but how we deal with them is what really matters.
The following video of the song Like you will never see me again of Alicia Keys of her album As I am, released in 2007 will show you part of a story.



Did you like the song? I invite you to be creative and include in your comment a paragraph telling the story of what you think made this couple break up.
