Cap 9 Elecciones Generales
Savater says that Ethics does not wait for Politics. That human societies have always been full of flaws, abuses, crimes, but in all times there have been people able to live well or at least trying to do it by collaborating, whenever possible to improve society; if not, at least they have not made it worse.
I think that, although in this society it seems that everything is a caos, we can always do something to solve it. I also believe that, although our work in the role we have to play may seem like trying to mop up the oceans of the world with a box of Kleenex, it would help to build a better society, that is, it would help more than if we did not do anything at all. Like Mother Teresa have said: "Todo lo que hacemos es una gota en el océano, pero si no lo hiciéramos, el océano tendría una gota menos" Wise words!
Summing up, we have to go ahead working, always working.
UTOPÍA
Ella está en el horizonte.
Me acerco dos pasos,
Ella se aleja dos pasos.
Camino diez pasos
y el horizonte se corre
diez pasos más allá.
Por mucho que yo camine
nunca la alcanzaré.
Y entonces...
¿para qué sirve la utopía?
Para eso sirve:
para caminar.

Lili, I loved Mother Teresa´s words! I believe that as well: we should contribute with something, even though is a small contribution, it always makes a difference!!!
Keep on blogging,
Romi
I'd like to invite you to enjoy this blog post, Lili: "Empowering learners".
As teachers, the awareness of the importance little actions can have is really crucial, as we often feel we're not making any difference in the world...
Keep walking towards the horizon!
LOL,

Hi Gladys,
Thank you very much but I have not much time, I'm afraid. Perhaps in the second term of the scholar year.
Lol,
Lili
No time to read a few lines and comment on them, Lili? You must be busier than a bee!
:-?
Gladys
Hi Gladys,
Although you don't believe me, I am!
But you know that whenever it is possible I try to deal with everything.
Lol,
Lili
I understand now, Lili (after we talked f2f last class!).
Hope things get better soon!
Big hug,
Gladys
