What ideas of the authors did you agree with? What ideas did
you disagree with? Explain why.&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I agree when the author talks about young people often do not feel good about themselves; they have pressures, problems, and emotional difficulties, which leads them to seek to be part of a social group.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Also, I like the arguments used when talking about the lack of attention from parents to their children, it is very clear to him, and explain it is quite right. Young people who feel alienated from their parents seek love outside their homes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And finally, social acceptance is a big factor affecting the youth, affects them as others see or what they think of them. There are young people who do what it takes to be accepted and taken into account by the &quot;friends&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #2b00fe; font-size: medium;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;E. Do you know other evidence that supports or does not support
the author&#39;s points?
 F. What is your own opinion on the subject of the article? Why?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don&#39;t know of any evidence. But I promise to investigate more about the subject, and maybe I will use the support of this topic for my final test of the course because it has ideas that will serve me a lot to talk about YouTubers and digital platforms.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Finally, I think that fame and acceptance of society is not important, it is better to love themselves and be happy with the things we have because nothing in life is forever.&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/feeds/2714351384746623989/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/12/fame-is-name-of-game.html#comment-form' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/2714351384746623989'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/2714351384746623989'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/12/fame-is-name-of-game.html' title='Fame Is the Name of the Game.'/><author><name>Jason Barrios B90993</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01295470681246635232</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMMed-pTSn7MqdWIwmzMv1GyXYPZ2TCcJzX8jNDFY9elXo6sGyIkAcnBRiqtRYYnFztSaCwmkfDo0-__xl5GsqJQYOby_CkWq7gdsgCxlPOZNPgLCfoQBnELhOtokZ6A/s220/1586405658181%5B1%5D.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3604967727045640280.post-4485085018730011813</id><published>2020-11-19T16:41:00.008-06:00</published><updated>2020-12-05T15:48:34.178-06:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="2 PART"/><title type='text'>STRUCTURE WORDS</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD5eSLcbEiisHrgHHy-AkxDqRexRKzdpWLQqLf-nQVHcuQOT99tCpLlShx2REPFsyVGcWdK7_iHL9vAhZbfAmn9nyd0JWLhaqqBCz5FhXk3esyobJhsESyvS22HySc79-BOb9r-QOIHUyE/&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;255&quot; data-original-width=&quot;567&quot; height=&quot;180&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD5eSLcbEiisHrgHHy-AkxDqRexRKzdpWLQqLf-nQVHcuQOT99tCpLlShx2REPFsyVGcWdK7_iHL9vAhZbfAmn9nyd0JWLhaqqBCz5FhXk3esyobJhsESyvS22HySc79-BOb9r-QOIHUyE/w400-h180/image.png&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h4 style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: medium;&quot;&gt;Cause and effect structure words are transition signals which show the

However, these words are important because they tie ideas together and connect one sentence to the next, or one paragraph to the next. Transitions guide your reader logically through your essay. These words are often quite easy to add to an essay and can greatly improve their quality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #2b00fe;&quot;&gt;Add FANBOYS: for, and, not, but, or, yet, so&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #2b00fe;&quot;&gt;Add other transitions: because, for example, for instance, however, therefore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 107%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: medium;&quot;&gt;Practice

transitions. The first one is done for you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: lime; mso-highlight: lime;&quot;&gt;And&lt;/span&gt;- &lt;span style=&quot;background: lime; mso-highlight: lime;&quot;&gt;Because&lt;/span&gt;-

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;1. Usually volcano eruptions follow
several earthquakes. &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;However,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;last month,
one eruption occurred after a period with minimal earthquake activity.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;2. Usually volcano eruptions
follow several earthquakes. &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;For example,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;in the 24-hour period before the eruption in May, nine earthquakes were
recorded.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;3. At many U.S. universities, female
students dramatically outnumber males. &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;So,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;college administrations are considering how to attract more male students. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;4. Many students have to decide
whether to go to college full-time and take out a student loan, &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;or &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;they could go to college part-time and get a
job.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;5. Dancers develop a sense of
balance&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;they
develop a sense of grace.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;6. Two of the boys speak Finnish,
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;because&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; they study at a Finnish school on the

This pronoun is used to refer to people. It can exercise the function of a subject or object of the sentence.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The woman &lt;b&gt;who&lt;/b&gt; works at my office is very efficient.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Mark’s brother, &lt;b&gt;who&lt;/b&gt; is 18, has just started University.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;WHICH:&lt;/b&gt; Unlike who, this pronoun only works for things and animals. It can also be the subject or object of the sentence.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The book &lt;b&gt;which&lt;/b&gt; I read last week is very interesting.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The cat, &lt;b&gt;which&lt;/b&gt; is very friendly, is called Tom.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;THAT:&lt;/b&gt; This is a pronoun that can be applied both to refer to people and things. Therefore, you can use it to substitute both who and which if the context allows it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The woman that works at my office is very efficient.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The book that I read last week is very interesting.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;WHOSE:&lt;/b&gt; We have the pronoun whose, which we should not confuse with who since it acts as a possessive. To better identify it, think that in Spanish it would be translated as &lt;i&gt;cuyo, cuya, cuyos o cuyas.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Yesterday I met a girl whose sister is a supermodel.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;I knew the guy whose bike you bought.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;WHOM:&lt;/b&gt; I don&#39;t want to forget to mention the relative pronoun whom. Although rarely used, it can be very useful in formal (polite) contexts. In addition, it is ideal to demonstrate your command of English.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The pronoun &quot;whom&quot; replaces people when they are not the subject of the sentence but are the ones who receive it. That is to say:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;To whom it may concern. – A quien concierna/interese.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Whom does he love? – ¿A quién ama él?&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Play in quizizz:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://quizizz.com/join/quiz/5b003fec0ec18e00193b1a0b/start?studentShare=true&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://quizizz.com/join/quiz/5b003fec0ec18e00193b1a0b/start?studentShare=true&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/feeds/155199769443354786/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/10/relative-clauses.html#comment-form' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/155199769443354786'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/155199769443354786'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/10/relative-clauses.html' title='Relative Clauses'/><author><name>Jason Barrios B90993</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01295470681246635232</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMMed-pTSn7MqdWIwmzMv1GyXYPZ2TCcJzX8jNDFY9elXo6sGyIkAcnBRiqtRYYnFztSaCwmkfDo0-__xl5GsqJQYOby_CkWq7gdsgCxlPOZNPgLCfoQBnELhOtokZ6A/s220/1586405658181%5B1%5D.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3604967727045640280.post-4749979848049903817</id><published>2020-10-13T14:30:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2020-12-05T15:47:23.675-06:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="1 PART"/><title type='text'>English Composition.</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial;&quot;&gt;A common weakness in writing is the lack of varied sentences.

The day to make the decision came and I saw a list of university majors and I thought “I don&#39;t know what to do with my life”; I felt a strange sensation in my body because I knew that the decision would mark my life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I don&#39;t want to make this long; I still don&#39;t know what I want to be, I don&#39;t know what life will bring for me or where I&#39;ll be in ten years. I am sure of something. Today I study English at the best university in the country (UCR) and I have lived many wonderful experiences, surrounded by surprising people where I have laughed and cried. Do you know what I&#39;m sure of? Of the number of opportunities that English will open to me; Maybe I will become a mechanic and play football, maybe I will be a welder and I can preach to many people, and I can do these things in a second language, hopefully, closer to achieving the American dream.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mechanic at Ford&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Playing for the New England Patriots&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Preaching in English-speaking Nations.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or transmitting knowledge to other young people who, like me, must make this difficult decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/feeds/8212968635891975094/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/08/la-mejor-decision-best-decision-tomar.html#comment-form' title='1 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/8212968635891975094'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/8212968635891975094'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/08/la-mejor-decision-best-decision-tomar.html' title='The Best Decision'/><author><name>Jason Barrios B90993</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01295470681246635232</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMMed-pTSn7MqdWIwmzMv1GyXYPZ2TCcJzX8jNDFY9elXo6sGyIkAcnBRiqtRYYnFztSaCwmkfDo0-__xl5GsqJQYOby_CkWq7gdsgCxlPOZNPgLCfoQBnELhOtokZ6A/s220/1586405658181%5B1%5D.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7brm3_8cnDkk96rIkBp2bENT7eN0PSPauMMbrjMhGv2nRcYHZwWBM2RzUzpV70rEwRXJv9bkD1Jd-vzJvXlUZIyaAC-5Rz1WmXKP2lUL_eRgMvh_MxnP7EglwPLG9l0FjBFKcuD6L3M2l/s72-w113-h200-c/B612_20191212_195222_563.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3604967727045640280.post-6936076853839386193</id><published>2020-08-26T15:56:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2020-12-05T13:37:50.572-06:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="My life"/><title type='text'>MI ORIGEN/ MY ORIGIN</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #2b00fe; font-size: x-large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: georgia;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;MY ORIGIN&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUlvgHAYfbvzZXo2b3KaL5eISUDlu6mvMdmBfsBmCbtRXzZDGpzpjJs0djPCEkUTSoMy2nE8_lDe0f9FJeR47RYgNBaJ5m-wbt9XdwCjvzIEvBT1lzNxN7PaSaeuRxQJ-KLYj5IAmpI0MD/s1015/FB_IMG_1598234286277%255B1%255D.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;643&quot; data-original-width=&quot;1015&quot; height=&quot;259&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUlvgHAYfbvzZXo2b3KaL5eISUDlu6mvMdmBfsBmCbtRXzZDGpzpjJs0djPCEkUTSoMy2nE8_lDe0f9FJeR47RYgNBaJ5m-wbt9XdwCjvzIEvBT1lzNxN7PaSaeuRxQJ-KLYj5IAmpI0MD/w410-h259/FB_IMG_1598234286277%255B1%255D.jpg&quot; width=&quot;410&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;CIUDAD DE LOS NIÑOS&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you know that beginning and origin, do not have the same meaning?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;As they are not the same, I will tell you my origin.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;My beginning at the University of Costa Rica came after years of struggle in the &quot;CIUDAD DE LOS NIÑOS&quot;, a school that formed me after the economy of my home and my mother&#39;s health problems kept me for three years out of the classroom.

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Era una noche del 15
de marzo del año 2008, cuando un joven de tan solo 25 años fue encontrado sin
vida en su casa, con muchas marcas en su cuerpo, que dejaban ver que este había
sufrido mucho antes de su muerte; con un arma en su mano y con un disparo en su
cabeza, que apuntaba a que este se había quitado la vida en esa habitación tan
oscura y fría; la escena era desgarradora el piso se encontraba bañado en
sangre y un misterioso silencio invadía este cuarto.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Uno de los policías
llega al acto y se encuentra el cuerpo de este joven, en una escena tan
ensangrentada que no podía siquiera creer lo que sucedía, y el como una persona
tan joven y llena de fuerzas acabaría con su vida de esta manera, por lo que
agarra el teléfono y llama a la central para pedir que informen a la familia
del ahora fallecido lo sucedido; a lo que no hallan respuesta de nadie. Minutos
después llega Diego, corriendo hacía la casa sin saber lo sucedido y encuentra
la terrible escena de su tío sin vida en el que fue su cuarto por muchísimos
años.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Diego se tira al
suelo a llorar desesperadamente por la muerte de su tío, era un llanto que
salía desde el alma, donde ni siquiera los policías sabían qué hacer ante tan
desgarrador momento; Diego se pone en pie y se tira sobre el cuerpo de su tío
lleno de sangre y le da un abrazo profundo y le dice: -Tío, quizá un niño de 10
años no entienda sobre esto, pero yo sé que te quitaste la vida por esas voces
que te enloquecían. A lo que el oficial le responde a Diego, -¿Oye niño de qué
hablas? -Nada señor oficial, olvide lo que dije. Y se levanta y se marcha
corriendo de la escena.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Pasan los años y
Diego sigue buscando respuestas; su tío se mató y él cree saber el motivo,
pero. necesita buscar la manera de vengar su muerte, -mi tío de niño me contaba
que escuchaba unas voces que lo torturaban, por muchos años él no estuvo bien.
Diego amaba a su tío por que fue quien de niño lo cuidó y lo defendía de todos
sus problemas, por lo que esto le dolía con toda su alma.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Los problemas en
casa de Diego se hacían presentes; todos hablan de la mala decisión que su tío
ha tomado, pero Diego seguía&amp;nbsp; pensando
por qué había decidido acabar con su vida de esta manera; era una pregunta que
se hacía cada noche, -¿será que te mataste por esas voces que te enloquecían
tío?. Diego recuerda que su tío había ido a dejarlo a la escuela en su primer
día de clases, y todas esas veces que fueron al parque a jugar; esto destruía
el alma de un niño de 10 años cuyo vacío era enorme.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Llegan los 13 años
de Diego;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;los problemas en casa
empeoran, ahora es un adolescente lleno de ira y de odio, e invadido por la
desesperación y el deseo de encontrar las respuestas acerca de la muerte de su
tío. Su búsqueda comienza, la noche del 16 de octubre del 2011, el debía
encontrar la razón por la que su tío se quitó la vida; tomas sus cosas y sale
de su casa, hacia la casa de su tío para buscar alguna pista de lo que sucedió
esa noche. Cuando sale de su casa escucha a su padre diciéndole a dos tipos
robustos y encapuchados, con un acento muy particular; mencionar que su padres
le debe dinero; al percatarse los hombres que el niño estaba, hicieron
silencio. Esto quedó dando vueltas en la cabeza de Diego, ya que no había
puesto atención a los problemas que en su casa estaban sucediendo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;A la mañana
siguiente escucha a su madre discutiendo, gritándole a su esposo que como
pagarían esas deudas y él le pega una fuerte cachetada y la lanza al suelo,
acto que Diego pudo presenciar y esto lo hace empezar a entender un poco mejor
las cosas. Empieza a ser crítico y a tener autonomía, cree que su tío se
suicidó por qué no sabía cómo sobrellevar su vida de adulto, pero al igual
recuerda que su tío siempre estuvo bien en ese aspecto, lo único que su tío
tenía era una molestia que le provocaban unas voces en su cabeza, pero nunca lo
escuchó quejarse de nada más.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Seis meses después;
llega la abuela de Diego a la casa, era la madre de su tío fallecido; Diego se
alegra mucho ya que tendrá con quien hablar sobre aquel fatídico día donde su
tío acabó con su vida. Se sienta al lado de su abuela y esta la empieza a
contar historias de su tío cuando este apenas era un niño, -Su tío siempre fue
un niño diferente a los demás, amaba estar solo, decía que tenía amigos de
otros lugares, pero nunca los conocí. Diego cada vez estaba más cerca de encontrar
las verdaderas razones por las que su tío se quitó la vida, y todo apuntaba a
esas voces que enloquecían a su tío.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Diego cumple 15
años; empieza a tener más problemas en casa, sus padres cada día pelean más y
la situación de familia no mejora; no encuentra una solución a su mente
perdida, llena de incógnitas, queriendo buscar la forma de entender a su
familia, no entiende por qué no hay un apoyo entre ellos mismos. No entiende
como no pudieron apoyar a su tío e impedir que este, desesperado acabara con su
vida de una manera tan cruel; necesitaba entender la razón de sus problemas y
el cómo solucionarlos. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;es&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Hoy es 15 de Marzo
del 2014, hoy se cumplen 6 años de aquel fatídico acontecimiento; Diego se
levanta rápido muy de mañana y sale en su bicicleta rumbo a la casa de su tío,
abre la puerta de la casa ya abandonada y vieja, sube las escaleras y se tira a
la cama de su tío a llorar su ausencia un año más; donde el se tira a la cama,
se cae una de las tablas de la cama y Diego se agacha a recogerla, y se
encuentra una carta, agarra la carta toda empolvada y llena de telarañas y la
empieza a leer, las lágrimas empiezan a salir de los ojos de Diego.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;La carta decía:
&quot;Queridos Familiares, me quiero disculpar con ustedes por lo que hice,
pasé muchos años sintiendo esto y nunca se los hice saber, si no acabé con mi
vida antes, fue porque pensaba en cuanto los afectaría esta noticia, pero ya no
pude más, ya son muchos años con esto; quiero que sepan que los amo, en
especial a mi sobrino adorado Diego, pero no podía más con esas voces que
invadían mi mente y me enloquecían, a tal punto que ayer me pedían que acabara
con la vida de Diego, y no pude hacerlo, por eso mejor acabé con mi vida, para
poder apagar las voces que estaban en mi mente. Padecí de Esquizofrenia por
muchos años, no es que yo quería ser diferente, es que ellas me hacían serlo.
Se despide Óscar Zamora Castillo&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Diego no sabía qué
hacer ante tal carta, quedó sin palabras al darse cuenta lo que había pasado
con su tío, su tío prefirió quitarse la vida antes que hacerle daño a él, pero
no entendía por qué su tío nunca les contó su padecimiento, quizá ellos
pudieron haberlo ayudado. Cansado de no entender el mundo, de ver a sus padres
pelear a diario&amp;nbsp; y de extrañar a su amado
tío , Diego decidió acabar con su vida así como su tío lo hizo, amarró un
mecate al techo y lo pasó por su cuello, y montado en la cama de su tío, se
lanzó al más allá.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Este 15 de Marzo
del 2020 se conmemoró la muerte de Óscar Zamora Castillo y de Diego Zamora
Ramírez.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilczTWWVGNXUZ-nKNkoQLmHR6FgIUtF2yqHdFTrL5iYRBhyEBPHl0RFZbQe1sE2XlvtAHRxy4CGyL1yQjNFyQprFnOkL0CfD15ZEEiXG_KcC1NKByY7Sj1TzDTd4MwDteTLBfv6eWYXATv/s1200/1522086033_286655_1522086145_noticia_normal.jpg&quot;

“Fairytales of Growth”; el mismo da inicio haciendo mención a las decenas de desastres
naturales que han venido dando repercusión en alrededor del mundo, y sabemos
que gran parte de ellos han sido provocados por las acciones del humano en la
Tierra, la cual va en deterioro cada día más. El derretimiento de glaciares en
los polos, el blanqueamiento de los corales, los grandes incendios forestales,
las sequías y las grandes inundaciones a nivel mundial, son solo muestra del
sinfín de catástrofes que el planeta presenta y presentará de ahora en
adelante, a menos de que los humanos hallen solución a este caos.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 4.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;&quot;&gt;&lt;span face=&quot;&amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,sans-serif&quot; lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;Cuan terrible es el hecho de tener que vivir en esta época
donde el mundo se nos empieza a “caer a pedazos”, y los grandes magnates
gobernantes del mundo no mueven sus dedos para remediar el daño que hemos
causado, pero esto me deja una incógnita; si hubiera nacido hace 100 años,
atrás ¿hubiese sido yo parte de la población que destruían el planeta desde
antaño?, pero caigo a la razón de que como humanos somos destructores por
naturaleza, y ni siquiera se me da la oportunidad de pensar en mis descendientes
porque no sé si el mundo pueda albergar a más humanos que le causen tanta
destrucción. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 4.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;&quot;&gt;&lt;span face=&quot;&amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,sans-serif&quot; lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;No sé cuántos lo sabían, pero el mundo no tiene diez o
veinte años destruyéndose, no fueron solamente las acciones que hicieron
nuestros padres las que provocaron este caos ambiental; aproximadamente desde revolución
industrial en el siglo XVII, dio inicio esta pesadilla para el planeta, la
producción en masa ha sido la causante del agotamiento de recursos que antes
llamábamos “infinitos” y se empezaba a contar el cuento con conceptos de
recursos renovables e inagotables, cuando todo esto fue solo obra de nuestra
imaginación. Somos los seres humanos la peor plaga que ha pisado este planeta
que prometía albergar vida por millones de años y mantener un equilibrio en sus
recursos, a través de ciclos donde todos sus elementos se acoplaban
perfectamente. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 4.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;&quot;&gt;&lt;span face=&quot;&amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,sans-serif&quot; lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;El ser humano es la única especie que va a un lugar, lo
explota y saquea sus riquezas, cuando ve que ya no hay nada en ese lugar se
siente incompleto, por lo que posteriormente se va a otro lugar a saquearlo y
destruirlo; nos hacemos llamar colonizadores, pero creo que la biología no se
equivocó y sí somos parte del reino animal, en lo que se equivocaron fue en
asimilarnos con el mono, cuando en realidad tenemos más parecido a las
termitas, que se comen un árbol y cuando lo tienen acabado se marchan a otro a
acabarlo totalmente. Espero que cuando notemos el daño que hemos causado, no
sea cuando nuestro mundo sea únicamente ruinas. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 4.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;&quot;&gt;&lt;span face=&quot;&amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,sans-serif&quot; lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;&quot;&gt;Lo que me deja aún un enorme sinsabor, es que a pesar de
que el mundo se está destruyendo, los grandes gobernantes continúan hablando
del enriquecimiento, como que si fuese un cuento de hadas lo que el mundo vive
en la actualidad; o cuando veo a las nuevas generaciones preocupadas por no
tener dinero para el IPhone 12 y no les preocupa que hay más de 12 países en
los que su niñez no alcanza la mayoría de edad porque mueren de hambruna. El consumismo
nos está lleva a una destrucción masiva, y lo que me da más ira, es que no solo
morirán los responsables de causar tanto daño al planeta, sino también los
millones que diariamente viven apenas con un tiempo de comida y que sus vidas
está sumida en la miseria, mientras otros no disfrutan lo que tienen.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

cada día más nos autodestruimos y provocamos una extinción masiva de nuestra
especie; hablamos de energías verdes, pero como creemos que estamos ahorrando,
prolongamos el uso de los productos... al final estamos gastando igual o hasta
más; hablamos de renovación y los botaderos se están llenando de productos desechados
que de igual manera contaminarán el suelo, los ríos y el aire. Quizá haya una
solución aún, pero esta generación no está lista para esta conversación, si no
estás listo para dejar una vida repleta de lujos, no estás listo para ser parte
de la generación que genere un cambio en el mundo y que revirtamos el daño que
empezó hace muchas décadas atrás.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

él, lo estamos consumiendo en décadas, los minerales y el petróleo no
acelerarán su proceso para ayudar al hombre a solucionar el cambio causado al
planeta, lo que sí puede suceder es que cuando estos desaparezcan el humano
desaparezca con ellos. Será que el cuento fue mal contado o es que creemos que
ahora los miles de años transcurrirán más rápido para conseguir nuevamente esos
insumos, o creemos que este cuento de hadas se seguirá extendiendo y que todos
viviremos felices para siempre. El planeta de nuestros sueños en un mundo de
falacias, el cuento de hadas se extendió y la utopía tiene a muchos en la
caverna del mundo de las ideas, pero la población está feliz y se deja llevar por
los obsequios que el consumismo les brinda (más consumismo). No entraremos en alegorías
para representar la temática, pero más que fantasía este cuento es realidad de
nuestro día a día. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

La obsolescencia programada es el “deseo del consumidor de poseer algo un poco más nuevo, antes del tiempo necesario” (Galicia, 2012). Cada año sacan un celular nuevo, que, aunque tenga el mismo diseño y utilidad, ustedes desean tener porque a la cámara le subieron un pixel más, o un nuevo carro que se vuelven “necesario” ya que el que tenías es muy cuadrado y no tiene “camarita” para ver hacía atrás. Caemos en un materialista tan extremo, que se vuelven más importantes las necesidades de un producto, que la atención medica por un padecimiento que te aqueja; o más trascendental el estreno de un producto, antes que remediar un problema de contaminación ambiental, que por desechos se deterioran sus recursos.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;Este problema no solo se vive en Costa Rica, Latinoamérica o Europa, este problema se está viviendo en todas partes del mundo. Compramos máquinas y productos, a los cuales les falla una pieza falla, y sale más barato comprar un nuevo producto antes que pagar por el repuesto y darlo a reparar. Las grandes empresas construyen los productos programados para que cumplan un periodo establecido y no para tener una alta durabilidad. Los productos que antes duraban mucho tiempo ahora se les ha acortado la vida útil, porque para las empresas es mejor vender 100 celulares que durarán un año, antes que vender 10 que durarán diez o quince años. Se han programado los productos para que su vida sea más corta, pero de igual se han programado a los ingenieros y técnicos para que fabriquen productos que van a fallar. El afán por el enriquecimiento ha cambiado tanto a la sociedad, que ahora la ética en la confección de productos para la venta, ha desaparecido, quedó hace mucho tiempo en el olvido.&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;Galicia muestra en el documental el ejemplo de una bombilla que ya lleva más de un siglo en funcionamiento en una estación de bomberos, y aún su utilidad y eficiencia siguen intactas. ¿Han escuchado ustedes a sus abuelos decir esta frase, “ahora las cosas las hacen de cartón, antes todo duraba más” ?; es una realidad, ahora se producen artículos cuya duración será más corta, muchos de ellos solo duran el tiempo que establece la garantía, ya luego empiezan a fallar, hasta que “mueren”. En nuestros días es más importante la producción en masa y no la producción de productos de calidad, y no sé que tan bueno sea este ejemplo, pero en países como China, se fabrican productos que estéticamente tienen características como los productos “de calidad”, pero por dentro estás compuestos por materiales de menor precio y calidad.&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;Me preocupa la realidad en la que vivimos, ya que a como se producen productos en masa, también los pensamientos y perspectivas sociales también se masifican; el impacto social de la tecnología es muy marcado, al nivel de clasificar a una persona por la cantidad de bienes materiales que posee, donde son “más aptos” aquellos que su poder material es mayor, que aquellos “desdichados” que no los poseen. Sociedad donde se estereotipan a los jóvenes por tener calzado, ropa o artículos tecnológicos que están a la moda; donde si eres de ese selecto grupo de “poderío material”, te puedes posicionar en la cúspide de la pirámide social. El problema es tan grave, que hay hogares donde la alimentación no es de calidad, pero la pantalla, el audio y demás productos tecnológicos sí son de alta gama.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;No podemos buscar culpables, porque en realidad si nos centramos en esta búsqueda, nunca terminaríamos y el problema continuaría presente. Jamás diré que los del problema son los grandes magnates que toman el control mundial economía (sarcasmo) porque no soy economista o profesional en finanzas. La producción en masa es cada día mayor, los residuos de estos productos cada vez destruyen más el medio ambiente, y todo esto pasa mientras la economía se convierte en un monopolio.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;El Consumismo, los créditos y préstamos; cada día atan más a la población, cada vez más nos convierten en “propiedad” de los grandes empresarios que tienen el mando del poder, y de qué manera podríamos inculpar a alguien que no ha cometido un delito, sino que ha utilizado el recurso más grande y poderoso que tenemos los humanos, este es la Psicología.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;El comercio nunca nos ha obligado a nada, nunca se nos obligó a comprar y desechar productos innecesarios, fue nuestro cerebro, fue la psicología la que nos llevó a esto. La psicología de las compras, la seducción el deseo de tener más, vanidad y la avaricia nos ha llevado a ser victimas de la obsolescencia programada y ser parte de una sociedad consumista, que a cambio de bienes materiales y de lujos, entregaron lo más valioso que tenemos, el planeta Tierra, donde si lo destruimos no tenemos otro igual (hasta ahora) que logre albergar vida y que nos dé los recursos necesarios para la subsistencia, y creo que cuando se encuentre uno igual, no nos será valioso, ya que nosotros nos gusta la vida de lujos y acabaríamos fácilmente con cualquier planeta que nos albergue. Acerca de la vida materialista trataron de advertirnos los filósofos griegos, y vean hasta donde hemos llegado, quizá debimos instruir a muchos en los postulados de Sócrates o mencionarles la vida que tomó Diógenes, pero todos nos convertimos en Platón y preferimos amar el dinero (espero que así podamos irnos a vivir a las cavernas después de destruir el planeta).&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;Pienso que el problema de los seres humanos está en que hemos confundido el materialismo con búsqueda de la felicidad; a través de productos hemos buscado llenar esa necesidad por “ser feliz”, creemos que entre más tenemos, más felices seremos. No sé cuál sea su concepto de felicidad, y no sé si se pueda usar el término, yo prefiero hablar de alcanzar la plenitud, pero de una cosa estoy seguro, lo material no te dará esa felicidad que tanto anhelas.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;Vienen a mi mente unas ultimas interrogantes ¿Qué pasaría si nuevamente hay una caída en “la bolsa de valores”? ¿Estará el mundo preparado para vivir una catástrofe de esta magnitud, donde la calidad de los productos no ayude tanto a volver a robustecer la economía? ¿Podría la economia sostenerse en la misma dirección que hasta ahora ha llevado o caería en manos del mejor postor? ¿Estaremos todos consientes de la mala repartición de las riquezas en el mundo? ¿Pensamos los humanos de la misma manera que una o dos décadas atrás donde creíamos que los recursos eran infinitos? ¿Lucharemos por la conservación de los pocos recursos que nos quedan, y conservaremos los recursos renovables? Son muchas cosas para una sola cabeza, pero prometo que indagaré en muchos lugares y enriqueceré mis conocimientos para poder causar un pensamiento critico en quien o quienes logren leer mi ensayo. Por ahora no pensaré en cambiar el mundo entero, por ahora quiero cambiar el espacio en el que vivo y que ese accionar propague ondas para que otros sigan el ejemplo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 25.5px; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;ES-CR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;“La naturaleza no produce residuos, solo nutrientes”; el ser humano produce residuos que destruyen la naturaleza y a él mismo; parece que le llaman productos para vivir, pero yo les llamaría “bombas de tiempo”.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Jason Barrios S.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/feeds/1443199604264808220/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/08/obsolescencia-programada-por-marxio.html#comment-form' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/1443199604264808220'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/3604967727045640280/posts/default/1443199604264808220'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://jasonsalazar97.blogspot.com/2020/08/obsolescencia-programada-por-marxio.html' title=''/><author><name>Jason Barrios B90993</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01295470681246635232</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMMed-pTSn7MqdWIwmzMv1GyXYPZ2TCcJzX8jNDFY9elXo6sGyIkAcnBRiqtRYYnFztSaCwmkfDo0-__xl5GsqJQYOby_CkWq7gdsgCxlPOZNPgLCfoQBnELhOtokZ6A/s220/1586405658181%5B1%5D.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://img.youtube.com/vi/ZTVOBBbnjv4/default.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
