Things happen

Its been a while since I have written on this site. Ive done quite a few things since the last time. Ive had all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out and had a rough recovery but its all good now. We started at 317 main street with guitar lessons, witch is great. We have been doing allot of work on reading and writing we also started in on science. We have also worked on looking into Nelson Mandela who is an amazing person. Also working on Abraham Lincoln and Charles Darwin. I have to say the best thing so far is the guitar its allot of fun to be able to learn something new to be able to do. So when I a, bored or something then I can just go play the guitar. This will help make weekends a little less boring. I also believe that since the last time I have written in here I have got a job working for a snowplowing company. I Still need to find another one till summer when I start my landscaping work. But yea so far the school year is going great with everything that we have done. We are planning on going on a few trips this coming week and I ready to get out the this awful town so its going to be a fun time.

Christmas

The African Christmas is similar to ours.They go to church on the 25 and have family over. They have a
get together and eat and drink. They have all kinds of different rices, and foods that they enjoy.

In Spain the tradition starts on the 24 where there is a bigger celebration then on Christmas.
They have a big meal and the biggest thing to them is the Christmas mass. They always go.

In Pakistan they celebrate by helping others. They help get sick homeless and imprisoned people
gifts and a large dinner for everyone to enjoy.

ehope

Community is something different to people today. People think that community is just knowing your neighbors and waving to them. Thats not all that it is though. People need to realize that community is helping people and getting along with them and sharing, like the old days if someone asked for sugar people would have lent it to them. Then if that person needed something they could go ask that person who asked for the sugar. Its helping people out. Thats what a good community is all about. Say if someone needed help with moving something they should be able to just ask someone to help and most people would help. Now its a very difficult thing to do most people wouldn't help anymore. People mostly wouldn't open there door for someone they didnt really know. Not everyone is capable to do everything they need to get done in a day. People shouldnt really even need to ask for help someone should just offer but its not like that anymore. A good community should be full people who all know each other and get along and are willing to help one another in a time of struggle. This would be an ideal community.
