Honesty the Best Policy

Honesty the Best Policy Honesty is a very important value that everybody must conserve for having a better relationship. honest people are loved for almost everybody and accepted everywhere. Some companies hire people with some mandatory values in which honesty is the most important one, so we can see how important value is this. Unfortunately, this magic value has been suffering an  erosion , has lost importance in our  society , our govern is  the clearest  example. Politicians,  authorities , the society as well In my very humble opinion, honesty  nowadays  is like a needle in a haystack and worse still, being  honest, nowadays  means being  fool  or stupid according to what we have been currently living, but I try my best and I do not consider myself the most honest person in the world, but I follow as possible Jehovah's commands and Jesus's examples, so that even when everything is  felling  down, I...

The bold and the bashful

Being different is one of the best characteristic of human being. That is exactly why we can help each other and result being useful in different circumstances, so Bold and Bashful are some of the personality human own. Some doubt might arise such as: Which of the two is the most common? Do you prefer to be bold or bashful? Why? Well, in my opinion none of these personalities is bad, whenever you’re capable to handle with them. I mean, I’m used to being both of them, it depends on where I am or who I am with, that means I decide to be introverted or extroverted at the same time and a clear evidence is when you sent the teacher’s substitute first, coincidently we were exactly working with this theme, so I sat alone in the back the whole class doing every single thing she assigned but completely quiet, at the end of the class she was guessing who were bold and bashful in this classroom, and guess what! She labeled me as a shy person. What a crazy! The entire class burst out lau...

Spiritual Renewal This is what we're actually talking about in class. Spiritual renewal , a topic that the majority of people avoid to debate about... People think that religious topic mostly end up in discussions, and I could say that it is 50% true.

The ways to create a closer connection with him and to know what is our commiment with  him in this life. Some of my classmates have told us their ways of spiritual renewal, but I would like to let you know some more, so that you can choose one and try. 1. Walk with God —nothing will restore your soul like time with God. Find a place where you can have quiet and calm. No distractions, no time limits, no pre-planned structure, no agenda—just be with Him. Get outdoors and literally walk—with God. This will change your perspective...

According to English Dictionary, personality can be defined as ‘a set of qualities that makes a person distinct from another’. At the same time, bashful can be as ‘shy; not liking to be noticed; socially timid’. On the other hand, Bold can be defined as ‘showing a willingness to take risks; confident and courageous’. All people around the world are different from each other, they have different personalities, they think differently, etc. At the moment we are going to meet new people, we need to know it, that everybody is different. We need to know how to treat them in a different way, because they can get hurt with our behavior.

FENG SHUI

Feng Shui is considered as an ancient art and it was discovered over 3,000 years ago. I was reading some articles  about it, and it said that in Chinese culture, wind and water are associated. Also, Feng Shui claims to use energy to creates a environment  to harmonize human beings.  To sum up, this is based on the way you plan something.

Adverb Clauses of Result: Adverb clauses of result with such...that and so...that present the result of a situation that is stated in the first clause. Let see this: If I say "It was so cold today", I have a simple sentence, but if I add "that we couldn't go out" I have an adverb clause of result. As simple as that! In simple words an adverb clause of result is a simple clause that point out the consequences that brings "the action" we are talking about. I have to say I use this grammar point when talking, but I never thought I was using "Adverb clauses of result". In addition, I did it wrong in the midterm, but at least now I know what the professor was talking about on it.

Feng Shui

  Feng shui is a Chinese practices that teach people how to align things in their environment to have harmony and good luck.   Even though Feng Shui is not science has a lot of principle that have logic. Some of those principales are:    -Not to sit with your back to the door because you can be caught off-guard. (which has a lot of sense for me)    -Have your things in order. If your bedroom is a mess, for example, this can affect your happiness, health and fortune.  Why this make sense for me? Because it happens to me  (when talking about happiness and harmony). The thing is that If my bedroom is a mess I cannot concentrate or even sleep well, I believe is because I like my things organized, but we never know. When talking about health, of course a messy place can affect it, messy places are dirty and if something is not clean brings bacterias that sometimes can end in a serious health problem.  To conclude, these days a lot of import...

  I n this entry I'll talk about the advantages and disadvantages of being shy or Bold.   I don't really see any advantage of being shy. However, there are a lot disadvantages. When you are shy you don't meet many people, you don't show your talents or skills, because of this you can lose the chance of getting good jobs or scholarships.   On the other hand, when you're bold you can easily show off, what helps you to get good jobs, scholarships and meet a lot of interesting people.   When comparing this two personalities I do not want to point out that being shy is bad, I believe bashful people should try to let the shyness aside to live freely though. However, as I refer to before being shy is nothing to feel bad  or ashamed about. Some tips to overcome shyness, based on Wiki How, are: Think about the root of your shyness .   Accept your shyness .  One of the first steps to overcome your shyness is try to accept your shyn...

   I have to admit that i never had heard about The Tipping Point before. However, since the professor made some examples, i understood its meaning. The Tipping Point is the most important moment in somebody's life.  A Tipping Point of The Dominican Republic , i would say was : Coup d 'État of President Juan Bosch.      In my personal opinion, Juan Bosch was the best president the Dominican Republic has ever had. And of course there are millions of reasons why, starting with his honesty and simple manners, Juan Bosch created one of the most progressive Constitution in 1963.   I know for sure that if President Juan Bosch would not had been overthrown our nation would had been placed in a very good position in all fields.

                    My mommy raised me to be an independent, strong and honest woman. She understood that in that way i could learn how to be a better human being and a person who can fight for her dreams; however, she was very strict specially with me because i was the oldest one at home.      I was the kind of person who avoided expressing my feelings and ideas in public, (and maybe i still do it).I was a combination of reticent and aloof, i think it was a strong handicap during my childhood. I was always worried about what people could say about me; i always insisted on pleasing everyone first before pleasing me. I was very inhibited and not spontaneous at all.           Through the pass of the years, i have learned that if i do not like something, i do not have to accept it, i defend my rights; i raise my voice against injustices; i do not waste my time paying a...

Honesty is the best policy

Honesty can be defined as ''the act, quality, or condition of being honest'' (by English Dictionary). Honest, at the same time, can be defined as ''truthful and sincere''. Even though the meaning of those words are completely clear, people think that it is better to tell a false statement than telling the truth. In our class we discussed the reasons why people lie. Here there are some of them. Peple lie because they want to avoid punishment. This reason is common in kids, they used to lie when they did something wrong and they don't want to get punished. People lie to get reward that they could not get. People lie to be admire. People tell stories that are no true, just to make people think that their life are wonderful, to get fans or just to feel better than others. People also lie to get benefit, o they lie to control people. In a world where lying is everywhere, honesty was, is and will be the best policy.

The Tipping Point

A tipping point, as the professor said, is an important moment on somebody's life or in a country life, it could be when you get married or when you graduate. This made me realized that we all are going to reach a specific tipping point in our lives, either good or bad, just like a country does, and we need to be prepared to face and deal those changes.  In this unit we studied the adverb clauses of result with such...that and so... that , here are some sentences i wrote on my own:  The cars were so fancy that everyone wanted to ride them.  The classroom was so freezing cold that we needed to turn the AC off.

Having a bold personality implies courage, determination and confident to speak to others. They are not reticent at all and being extrovert or outgoing could be consider as a positive attribution in a person. Bashful, on the other hand, seems to be a socially disadvantage characteristic in a person for some reasons like lacking of social skills, being treated as inferior towards extroverts, and people assuming they are not ''good enough'' to make a specific work project.  To me, this is a complex subject,  but as long as everyone is treated like equal, with no differences, we can make the world a better place with extrovert and introvert people living in it.

The Tipping Point - Unit 4 In this unit we were talking about “Tipping Points” Which first off would be consider as any important moment that happened in a society.  We can consider some of ours: Trujillo's Death National Independence Day Hermanas Mirabal and Caamaño's murder.

In this area we were debating Adverb Clauses of Result with such ... that and so .. that present the result of a situation that is stated in the first clause.  For example: The subways were such a mess that people hated to ride them. The flu spread so quickly that 50 percent of Manhattanites were sick on New Year’s Day. 

The Bold and the Bashful♥

Good morning, guys! In this small composition I will be talking about the content we saw in unit three: "The Bold and the Bashful." We could highlight several definitions for each of these words, among which the following could be highlighted: Bold: It is the type of people who are usually extrovert, outgoing and talkative. Bashful : It is the type of people who are usually shy, timid, introvert and reticent. Some of my colleagues agreed to have each of these personalities, others a little bit of both. In my opinion, I would consider myself a bold person, I like to meet new people, be open to any topic that can bring new knowledge in my life, go out, enjoy nature while talking a lot with my friends, etc. I do not think there's anything wrong with being a bashful person, it's just that you are limited to expressing the great person you may be inside. In the grammar area, we were socializing the adjective clauses. These are used to add variety...

The bold and the bashful

Good evening!  This is what I think about bashful people as well. The word bashful sometimes describes a person who is shy but friendly. Being like that is not a good quality in some aspects. Probably, I would not use bashful to describe a quite reserved classmate with who I have little contact; shy would fit better. However, bashful is a perfect description for my good friend who unfortunately becomes reticent whenever she tries to talk to unknown people.
