Movies, Great Form to Learn

One of the best paths for forget everything and enjoy a moment is watch a movie. The people go to the theater with parents, friends and girlfriend or boyfriends and watch different movies as: comedy, drama and action, and share this especial moment that most of the times is great for everyone. Always exist topics of conversation about movies and everyone is an “expert” of Hollywood when give his opinion about the construction, actors and scene of the film. Well I will try expressing my idea that not is an expert comment, but I think that is very true.

            Beside fun, the movies can teach us some situations of the real live and how resolve, obviously every problem is different but the movie could be a guide and example. This movies don’t are Superman, Batman or something like that, movies that could help you are films that were based in real history or real histories.  What you can learn? Very easy, in the movies you can learn general things as: culture, countries and traditions. Also more specific you can learn about one time as: the seventy and eighty, the people behaviors and other thing that you want, but yes, is a good tool.

            For me, I have some movies that are book of information for my future job. I’m studying to be an officer in the U.S. Army and one of the forms to know what happened in past battles or wars is the movies. One example of that is the film “We Were Soldiers” (2002) that is a representation of a book that wrote the L.t Gen. Harold Moore and Joseph L. Galloway. They were participant of the Vietnam War and after war they prepare this book with the true history of that moment. For ROTC students films like that help us to understand the high risk that exist in every mission, the form to take decisions, the team work and keep the high moral of the unit, but the most important thing is don’t make the same error of the past. For this reason we watch different military movies and series as: “We Were Soldier”, “Saving Private Ryan”, and “Band of Brothers”.   

            As we can see the purpose of the movies isn’t only entertain, we can learn about different things that you want know, obviously the book are better for gather information, but the movies is a good form too. Don’t use any movie, use movies that express the reality of the live, movies based in true history and you will have the necessary information.        

Robert Downey Jr, the Best Actor

When you talk with somebody about celebrities always you prefer one that you love his or her songs, movies or other thing where that person express his or her talent. This person maybe is you role model, maybe you remember somebody or something when you watch his movies or listen her music, sometimes you think that this person is very similar of you. Everybody have a reason and I have one too. My favorite actor is Robert Downey Jr., why? Let me explain everything.

Downey is singer, music writer, but most people know him as an actor. He began his career with five years old in 1970 in movies that his father directed.  In the last few year his career has receive the attention of the people for the amazing movies as: two movies of Sherlock Holmes, three movies of Ironman and the new one “The Judge”. Now this is my first reason that I admire this guy. Sherlock Holmes is a detective movie where you can use your imagination and enjoy the adventure of the movie. Young and old people can enjoy of this movie and I know of families that share time seeing this film. The next movie “Ironman”, for me is the best superhero of the Avengers, is a nice movie for kids, young and old people too where you can see destructions, fights and the hero saving the world. In an interview some time ago Downey said that “Ironman” is the easiest character that he did, because in the reality he is like Tony Stark (the character of Ironman) and every scene when he eat some snacks is not part of the movie but his act natural and the director accept the scene. You can believe??  That awesome! Now in the new movie “the Judge” we can see other face of Downey. In this film he is a lawyer and his father is accusing of murder so is a serious film, but his actuation was perfect and that is my point. Robert Downey Jr.  is a perfect actor that can do some types of character don’t matter what.

Other point of his life that I don’t accept, but is example of overcoming is his problems with drugs. From 1996 to 2001 Downey had some problems with: valium, heroin and cocaine but eventually went to jail for illegal possession of weapons. When he came back of the jail he began a new life and participated in some of good movies of this period. 

This are my reasons, a guy like you or me, with problems and situations that can overcome and maintain his career in Hollywood where do different characters and types of movies. For me Robert Downey Jr. is the best example overcome.                

Internet for Childrens

The Internet is one of the most important media of this time and is a great tool if is used correctly. In the last years some companies had presented some equipment for use the Internet, for example: cellphones, computers, tablets, and other devices for the people, young or older, can enjoy of this tool. As other tools, some people use the Internet for pay the bills, buy something, make homework, share information with others and read news. In general, the internet is a necessary tool in the life of everybody, but what really happen?    

The people that born in the last two decades, born with the Internet and know a lot or everything about that. This creates an “advantage” over older people who are not very skilled. But is really an “advantage”? In the last years we saw a lot of cases of people that contact boys or girls and abuses of them. This person use Internet platforms as Facebook, twitter and instagram for achieve communication with the victim. Some federal agency work for eliminate this problem, but the most important thing here is the responsibility of the father or mother with the children. Also some movies express this problem and the hard situations that create in the families; one example is the movie “Trust”.

Please people. If you have a children and he or she need a computer for do something, you as a father or mother, can observe the activities. Is very important talk with their about that and express the reality of the social networks and other page as chats. Sometimes parents give a cellphone or computer because is cool have one, but this children maybe don’t have the knowledge for do the correct things. Don’t accept that the internet teach your children the thing that you should teach. Obviously you can use the internet for teach your son or daughter, because in this case you show her or him the good things and the correctly form of use the internet. I’m not an expert, but that is common sense, protect your children of something bad. The world is very hard for this young people and we can do something for protect them.               

The Seriousness of Marriage

The life consists in hard, difficult, good and bad moments, and other things that always we can resolve with responsibility and seriousness. An example we can talk about is the marriage, what is the marriage? The marriage is a socially or ritually recognized union or legal contact between two persons, where they have new obligations and rights between them, if the person has children that create other responsibility inside the marriage.  In Puerto Rico I have seen de lack of seriousness that some people have with the marriage. They accept the marriage, but not the responsibility.  It’s very easy accept the word, but not the really meaning.  I understand that “errors” or “experiences” occur, but Puerto Rico is the second on the divorces rates in the world with 4.5 divorces per 1,000 people. This numbers explain one thing, some people of this island don’t show responsibility, respect and seriousness that need the marriage. The divorces situations in Puerto Rico are very serious because exist cases where one person attack his or her couple in a fight. In other cases the children can see the physical and psychological abuse inside the house.  You need prepare for enter in a relationship and the marriage.

Don’t go to a relationship or marriage for necessity; take your time to understand everything and you decide.  Obviously the first step in a marriage is the love, but not is all, you should meet very well the other person, accept his or her culture, religion, errors and everything of his or her personality.  It’s the most important step in the personal develop of everybody, so if you don’t feel secure don’t do that. If you accept and you don’t prepare for the marriage, you could affect the other person, if you have children could affect them and you could affect yourself.  The people should be responsible and serious when you take the decision, because is supposed to be for life, not for some time or until other woman or men appear.  The people need learn about the seriousness of the marriage, of this form we can avoid some abuse case in the families where people are affected including children. Everything can resolve with learn about that and have good communication.
