I swear I will be wrong.

I just knew it the first time that I saw you.
 It was just when your eyes found mines, when your hand held mine and your smile stole the broken pieces of my heart.
Love is too simple, but we are concerned of making it difficult. Because that kind of connection between us just can be love. But, can a love always be good?
It was the only question around my mind. Is it good for us? Can it be something positive? Is it going to destroy our lives?
Love is destroying, but always awesome. Love is all that we need even when it is difficult.
 Love cannot be something wrong, never. Never. It is better to love and be destroyed than never being in love.
Whatever happens, loving always will be the right option.
People should love more and speak less.

 That is why I am here today, standing as hard as I can. Sometimes destroyed, sometimes in the top of the world. But always being the right thing, loving and be loved in return.

The purpose of education.


The kind of education that we all have nowadays has been created thanks to an important development through several years. It is obviously that our parents could not join this type of education. The one that they had was more stressful and stricter and they could not live that time as well as we live it nowadays. But, my point is: Is it everything we could do?
As long as I know, education is based on the idea of learning concepts, passing exams and getting the greatest mark that you can. That is, in my opinion, how education makes us feel: just like numbers. It is too sad thinking about that if you are a 10 you are better that a simply 5.
Albert Einstein was failed several times in his childhood, and he ended up his life as an incredible genius. Benjamin Franklin was ejected of school because a teacher said that he was retarded, and, do you know who Benjamin Franklin is?
What I am trying to explain is that, we need the purpose of education to be the reason of the students’ faith in them. I agree that exams should be passed and we should learn, but I think that we should change the process and these things would be easier to achieve.
I have seen a TedTalk and it was about a teacher who promoted the motivation of their students as hard as she could. She was interested in knowing her students’ names and in their personal lives. It seems to be quite simple but there are several teachers who do not know my name. She obviously also failed some students but always with a motivator message under the mark to make them feel like a fail was not the end of the world, just to make them feel like they could change it with some effort.


To sum up, and as I said before, we should change the mechanism of learning and teachers should try to see students as something else than numbers, marks or whatever. They must see us just like the future that they are building and then think about what kind of future they want to have.
