The changes and turns of life ...

The changes and turns of life ...

Well, the truth is I do not remember much about what was donebefore, what music was sounded, what TV shows were seen,what things were like in general.

But if I could do the exercise to remember as it was myneighborhood, because the changes it suffered, the construction of houses in old agricultural fieldsthe arrival of various computercompanies and industries and logistics, have been drawing angeography of the enterprises city.

The same arrival has permitted the municipality to transform their infrastructure with the construction of high-speed roads, as well as the arrival of the Metro, the neighbor municipality of Recoleta.

This in sum, reveals that the life since I was a child, has changed considerably, the distances to the center of the city have fallen by the extension of road infrastructure, as well as the progress ofpopulation in this area city.

But if it exists something I've perceived that has changed is thefood. Before a memory that ate many things, including meats and vegetables. Now however only eat food derived from wheat flour in different formats and rice with chicken and beef. Even the dessert was quite an experience from preparation to eating, is to roastmilk, meal and milk, "yogurt de pajarito" and infinity to resert.

Well this´s the changes tha i´ve observed

the last fiel trip

the last fiel trip????

The fiel trip to La Serena, definitely not the last field that we have in our lives, because from the beginning we have been drawing thegeography of our lives through our relationships of affection, friendship and fellowship.

Consider La Serena as the last fiel trip, is not an error, but it is a point in a drawing the relations of friendship that has built from the first fiel trip to Quillota. While this was a little vacation, a break from the agitated academic activity, can never be thought of as the lastfield.

Now, each time we stepped into the field exercise, I asked (and we asked) what becomes later. What will happen to us. And what lies behind. Questions of past, present and future, that make me feel ever more strongly that the university has to learn things about the geography, I have come to build a set, a friend, an affinity that can not be broken or lost, if so that everything would have been ...Considers that any learning process is a communicative processand support the germ of which are the values that together we must build.

"People who are rich are happier than poor people"

If rich people are happier than poor people ...

Well first of all consider it necessary to distinguish between poverty and wealth. First a person is richer than another,depending on the level of income that you report your income tomake ends meet. Secondly a rich person is not happier than a poor person, because it can buy a finite goods or servicesprovided by the market. In synthesis the happiness can not be measured by the level of income or cash in hand.

The central question is do we believe that there are rich and poor and this difference also exists a differential of happiness, to justify the competence and the accumulation of goods oftenunnecessary. (He constantly invents new products and newneeds).

So what lies in this materialistic idea of happiness is thedifferential degree to specialize values in society, so there is no difference between rich and poor defined by happiness, but by the degree of freedom to express differential in space, in the city,in politics and in every sphere of social production of society.

We should not be more happy even get a more equitable distribution of wealth. Happiness is the way to obtaining our freedom.

My life these days ...

My life these days ...

In recent days and in general everything that has happened in thisend of the year beginning of the new, has been a constant process of questioning of what to do. What to do, comes from the emergence of the culmination of my undergraduate studies. This makes to keep in mind Where to go practice.

The answer is not unequivocal, because I am interested in a variety of issues, themes and issues with regard to rural development and the role and strengths of women in the same process. This broad view also suggests an infinite path hastaken. But like any learning process, I believe that I am currently in the process of accumulation, where I have to decide which road to take, it may be academic, educational, professional or traditional territorial seek greater involvement.

In short, I am in a period of accumulation which must decanted into something. That something should emerge, however, notintentionally force. But the spontaneity of the values that Ipurchased and built.
