BEING A TEACHER....

BEING A TEACHER IS A DIFFICULT TASK NOWADAYS, SO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE BY BRUCE LEE:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

Keeping us alive



This fire, this desire to live... or just the love for our lover, relatives, friends... is keeping us alive and is making us fight day after day in these tough conditions.

Except my best friend , in the cuarentine he played with me to videogames , we talked in call and he was my support in the cuarentine . Now I don't have fear to coronavirus ( except if I contact this virus to his grandmothers ) .

  2. I don't think that your relatives or your friends love make you alive, I think that your self-love is the only thing that makes you alive, the love of other people only are complements that make your life more bearable, more manageable, but if you have self-love you have all in this world.
    It sounds easy, but nearly anyone have self-love, they don't like them like they are, all of us are always trying to found something of us that we don't like it to change it instead of found that things of us that we love ande love them a little bit more.
    I think that today is much more difficult to found the happiness, than it was few years ago, I think that if we ask from person to person if they are truly happy, or they don't told you the truth or they said you "NO", there is the possibility too that they said yes, but they could said yes because they don't know what be happy really means, and it is sad to think this but is the truth.
    I think that we need to make the thinks that we need us and don't wait for someone to do it instead of me, because if I want something, I will do it on my own, and I will be more grateful with myself and I will really find the self-love that I need.

  3. February 14 is a very special date for couples or people in love, because it is the day of love. They send gifts like flowers, letters, stuffed animals, candy, and more. But in addition to being the day of love, it is also the day of friendship for our family and friends because we love them too.

  4. Last February 14th was Saint Valentine´s day. I have always thought that it´s only a commercial day, because everybody spends a lot of money on buying things like flowers, chocolate, jewellery things or some present for their couples. And also, most of the couples post photos on the social media showing how in love they are. Almost all these photos are fake, and they only post them because they want to show everybody their relationship.

    I think that if you really love someone, you have to show her or him your love every day, not only on Saint Valentine´s day. Gifts are not the most important thing. For me, love is much more special than material things.

    I prefer, for example, going for a walk on the beach, watching the sunset, or talking for hours while we are eating some ice cream instead of a very expensive present. I love these moments. I also prefer a cheap gift but that has something significant for me than an expensive one that means nothing. But I´m not talking only about a boyfriend or a girlfriend. Love isn´t only for couples. You can love anyone else; your parents, your friends, your siblings, any member of your family or even your pet.

    Sometimes, this kind of love is really necessary, because when you are sad and you feel the support of the people who love you, it helps you to become happier and happier. Love is very important. What would happen in the world if love doesn´t exist? Maybe the world had ended a long time ago…

  5. I think that as the love of your family towards you is very important, but the love that each one has for himself from my point of view is greater, because after all the decisions that you have to make the day In the morning when starting a family and others it will be yours, although yes, I know that it belongs to your family a bit too but a large part of that decision is yours and if you are not brave when choosing and deciding that decision, I think that person is not prepared for that and not a brave person.

    Many people always put their family first, I respect their decision, but there is nothing like the self-love and courage that each one has of their own. Each one has to be independent and not depend on anyone for anything.

  6. On the fourteenth of February Valentine's Day or Valentine's Day is celebrated, it is called that because it is the day that Valentine died, he was a man who secretly married people in love. On this day the love of a couple is celebrated, also of friends or family, which is also very important. The sign of Valentine's Day is a child with wings, a diaper and a bow with arrows that makes people fall in love, he is called Cupid .

  7. February 14 is a very special day for many people, especially for couples. It is a day when love is celebrated and couples often give each other gifts. Although it is a very beautiful day in which many couples have a great time and are together, this day has a slightly strange past.

    Before, Valentine's Day was not like now, before, in ancient times, a pagan festival dedicated to fertility, called Lupercalia, was celebrated in Rome. During this festival, women expected to be beaten with whips made of goat and dog skin, dipped in the same blood of these animals, since they believed that this ritual gave them fertility. This festival has become what we know today as Valentine's Day

  8. Not long ago it was Valentine's Day, I don't like this day because I don't understand why it has to do with a day like this, on Valentine's Day all couples give each other things and upload things to the networks but I think this is absurd and I think that some Couples will be a lie that they only upload it for the posture but then they really do not love each other or anything.

    I see Valentine's Day so absurd because I think that if you really love someone you have to show it day by day how you feel. For me love is more special than material things, gifts are not the most important thing,

    On Valentine's Day I think it is not only for the love of your partner but for anyone (your family, your friends ...).
    I believe that true love is that of your family because they are the ones who will always help you and will be there to make you happy when you are sad.

  9. Valentine's Day is very beautiful for all couples. They give each other gifts and spend the day together to show that they love each other very much. It is very important to show that you love your partner every day. Gifts can be very important to many people, but I don't think so.

    Actually, the most important thing has to be self-love, because until you love yourself, you can't love anyone else. Many times we change our way of being or our physique just to please people, but I think that if someone really loves you they will never want you to change.

    The love of your family is also very important, because they are the only ones who will always be with you.

  10. Valentine's Day is a very important day for every couple. On this day of love, many couples give each other gifts, go on a trip or spend a day as a couple.
    I think this is one more day, with the person you love you must love her every day, not some more than others .
    And if you are alone, you don't have to look for someone to be with you, the time will come all in good time.
    The first thing is to love yourself, enjoy yourself and then the right person will arrive and the one who can spend the rest of the time with you. And Valentine's Day is not only for couples, you also have to love your family, which is the one that will always support you and will love you.

  11. February 14 is a very special day for some couples because it is the day of love, Valentine's Day, some people give their partners chocolates, red roses and spend the day together doing fun things that they both like, for example: walking on the beach. , go eat at a restaurant, ...
    Others take advantage of this day to declare themselves before the person they like.
    I think this day is something ridiculous, not because it is Valentine's Day you should give your girlfriend things so she can see how in love you are with her, you can give her flowers or do fun things when you feel like it. You should show your love to him every day.
    In my opinion it is not only the day of love as a couple but of love to your friends and family.

  12. on february 14th valentine's day is celebrated, it is a day where couples celebrate it by sending gifts, sending red roses, chocolates etc... showing the love they feel for their partner.

    i think that the most beautiful thing about couples is not the gifts or anything material but the feelings of affection for each other and being with someone you love every day and the moments you spend. but i think that you don't need a specific day to love your partner more but you should love them every day the same regardless of how you feel.

  13. The origin of the celebration of Valentine's Day dates back to the third century in Rome, when Emperor Claudius II ruled, who decided to prohibit marriages between young people because he thought that if people were single they would get better soldiers, braver and without ties like family or children.

    February 14 was Valentine's Day, the day that love is celebrated, and couples give each other gifts to show all the love they have.
    For me that day is a bit silly, because I think that if you really love a person you have to show it every day, and not just show it on a specific day.

    Self love is the most important thing you have to have. You have to love yourself and be comfortable with yourself to can love someone else.

  14. I think that February 14th has become a very commercial day, because what most people do is spend a lot of money on a gift for their partner. In my opinion this day is too overrated because love should be demonstrated every day with acts and not one day with gifts.
    Love is something important, the love of our family, the love of our friends, the love for ourselves, this, in my opinión, is one of the most important because without it we will never be truly happy, because not loving ourselves can produce a lot of insecurities and problems and I think it´s something important to work on.
    We must also choose well who we love and the people around us, because they are quite an important element in our happiness but we also have to know how to be happy alone because you never know what might happen.

  15. February 14 is a very special day to show your love to your family, partner and friends.

    There're many ways to show your love with gifts or spend the day together.

    In my opinion, Valentine's Day is a bit stupid because you don't need a day to show how much you love a person, it's better to show it to them every day.

  16. Valentine's can be fun depending on who you spend it with. If, for example, you fall in love with someone, they tell you that you have had a crush on Cupid, a boy with a bow, arrows of hearts that flies and has a diaper. It is also often said that Saint Valentine, who is a Roman doctor and a priest, is the patron saint of lovers, so basically this day is in honor of him.

  17. February 14 is the day of love and that is why it is a very special day for people as a couple, they take advantage of the day to spend it together doing things like going to dinner, walking on the beach ... and also taking advantage and giving each other others Some give chocolates, others give flowers, other stuffed animals ...
    Many of the people who do not have a partner take advantage of this day to declare themselves the person they like.
    In my opinion, this day does not make any sense, you should show people that you want what you feel on a daily basis and not wait for a specific day to tell them, there is no point waiting for a day to come just to do things. You could do anything else, you don't need to wait to spend time with the person you love, not because it's Valentine's Day makes it more romantic or special.

There have also been more people vaccinated against the virus, but few doses are arriving for the countries. They should speed up the vaccine production process in order to achieve immunity as soon as possible and that there are no more deaths and infections.

  20. Some days ago, it was February 14th, Saint Valentine´s day. I have always thought that it a silly thing to celebrate because we don't need a day to show how we love our girlfriends/boyfriends, but on the other hand, is a very good excuse to give something to someone like a detail. Also, most of the couples post photos on the social media showing how in love they are. I don't like it, I don't want to enter in instagram and see the whole instagram full of those photos.

    Normaly, couples want to impress themselves with expensive presents or amazing surprises. I'm a person that is happy with going for a walk or passing the day in a house watching movies or series. With that kind of love is enough to know that that person loves you.

    Sometimes, this kind of love is really necessary, because when you are sad, it helps you to become happier and happier. Love is very important in our lifes, it makes us very happy.

  21. Every year in our country it’s celebrated a very unusual day, specially to the people who are in love with someone. This day is called Saint Valentine’s day. It is celebrated each February fourteenth. I think that it is a very special day because you can see everyone giving presents each other and showing how much they love. I think that you don’t need a day to show how much do you love your girlfriend, but despite that, I think it’s a great day to celebrate.

    In Saint Valentine’s day, I usually celebrate it with my parents and my family. We go out to have lunch in a bar which we all love to go. After this, we go home and we all watch a film together, but not love ones because I hate them! Each year, we usually have a really good day.

    If I have a girlfriend, I go out with her to have a walk or we go to a bar and seat calmly with her and spend some time together. I’ll probably give her a present, but I think that non-material are the best ones! Now I don’t have a girlfriend, so I can just go out with my friends and have a great time laughing or having a walk all together. I prefer meeting my friends because I have such a great time with them and because I don’t usually meet them because of the sport and the school work.

    Each February fourteenth, when I watch any social media like Instagram or Facebook, I see famous people giving such great presents to their boyfriends or girlfriends and they show great surprise. I think that you don’t need to give to your couple a present like a three-meter teddy bear with lots of sweets because that’s too expensive and it’s unreal, but some of that people work on social medias and they have to show amazing things to gain followers and still winning money.

    Despite all these things, I love this day and I think it’s great, especially when you see people giving presents to their friends and showing them how much they love each other. I love Saint Valentine’s day!

  22. February 14 is Valentine's Day. In my opinion, that day is something magical, because I like to walk around and see hearts in stores, etc. Since I don't have a boyfriend, my Valentine's Day was boring, like every year.

    On Valentine's Day things are often said about Cupid, who is an angel who makes people fall in love. And couples give each other gifts.

  23. Saint Valentine’s Day that day of the year when the decapitation of a Saint is celebrated by showing your love to other person for some reason. What once was a heathen celebration embraced by the Christians has now turn into a festival of consumerism where it looks like the only way of show true love is by buying the most expensive gift with some roses.
    It not something surprising at all, the same thing happened to Christmas, where now giving a gift to someone else is nothing but a new form of rise one’s self esteem and feeding an ego disguised as care for others. It’s quite sad see how celebrations have become into a monthly excuse to think we are been kind to others just by spending money.
    What I mean with all of this is not that spending money in gifts for other is something bad, what I really mean is that a surprise gift is not most something the other wants but what the person would like. Most of the time little and useful gift are more meaningful than the expensive and pompous ones. Sometimes surprises are good but telling the other person what would like or need, can be a signal of true care.

  25. Nowadays many people celebrate Valentine's Day every 14th of February. This day is known all around the world and there are lots of ways to celebrate it. On this day, people usually buy flowers or jewellery for their partners, family or friends.

    This day is celebrated because of an ancient priest called Valentine. In the third century the soldiers weren't allowed to get married. Valentine made possible for those soldiers to get married. But Valentine was judged and killed on the 14th of February. Because of this we celebrate Valentine's Day on the 14th of February.

    However, Valentine's Day isn't celebrated on the fourteenth of February everywhere. In Brazil this day is celebrated on the 12th of June and in most of South America it is celebrated on the first day of spring.

    My parents and I celebrate Valentine's day each year. We buy some presents to each other and sometimes we go to a restaurant and watch a film together. But in other countries like South Korea, this is very different. There on Valentine's Day only women receive presents. On the 14th March women give presents to the men, and on the 14th of April people who didn't receive presents meet in a restaurant!

    In my opinion Valentine's Day is a great day to give presents to people that you love because you can find lots of things. But I also think that you have to show people how much you love them everyday and not only on Valentine's Day.

  27. I think that we all have something that we continue to live for, whether it be people like your family, friends, lover …
    And there is no better way to describe this feeling than by comparing it to a flame, Since gusts of wind can come but with the help of branches and wood, the flame will continue to light and I think that during life we ​​are all going to have very difficult times, although we never have to give up, because after the storm comes the calm.

    leaving this behind.

    about cybersecurity, I think that we should all have a minimum of security, how to cover the cameras of laptops, webcam ...
    We would also have to have different passwords for each device, email, and social networks
    since there have been many cases in which the webcam, emails and social networks have been hacked

  28. I don't think that your relatives or your friends love make you alive, I think that your self-love is the only thing that makes you alive, the love of other people only are complements that make your life more bearable, more manageable, but if you have self-love you have all in this world.
    I think that today is much more difficult to found the happiness, than it was few years ago, I think that if we ask from person to person if they are truly happy, or they don't told you the truth or they said you «NO», there is the possibility too that they said yes, but they could said yes because they don't know what be happy really means, and it is sad to think this but is the truth.

    1. Love is essential in our lives, as there are many types of love. There is not only love for your lover, there are also kinds of love that are as special as this one, or even greater. There is love for your work, love for your family, love for your pet, self-love (something very very important in our day to day) ...

      On the one hand, love is all those things that we fight for every day, all those desires and all those ambitions that we have. For example, one of my great loves is the passion I feel for medicine and for helping others. Another example of my great loves is my ambition to travel to all the countries in the world.

      On the other hand, as many people say from love to hate there is only one step. There may be situations in life where you lose your way and all your ambitions and desires disappear or turn to ashes, and you feel like nothing makes sense. And to get out of this situation you must surround yourself with people who love you, because if you don't, you can end up in a terrible situation.

      For this reason, loving and being loved is essential in our lives, since without ambitions and without personal values, life becomes meaningless. Surround yourself with loving people and be happy, this will help you grow as a person and you'll be at peace with yourself.

  35. In my opinion I think that Valentine's Day is a very false day.

    Its not like the movies .In movies they always ask people out, make love letters, everyone is happy with their boyfriend or girlfriend...
    I think it's a bit fake because everyone has no partner

    some things are true but others are not. I think that Valentine's Day is a day to give our love to the people we love the most, and that's it.

    I think that if you really love someone, you demostraid your love every day at the person. For me, the love is more special that material things.

    In San Valentine day you don`t have to present to the person something by, you can to make something to present to the person.

    I think Valentine's Day is so ridiculous, because I think if you really love someone, you have to show them how you feel every day. For me, love is more special than material and gifts are not the most important thing.

    I believe that Valentine's Day is not only to love your partner, but also for anyone (your family, your friends ...).

  38. Nowadays love it´s less common than before but still important. The love could be present in different ways like self love, same sex love, family love.. Finally love is love when you feel like that and it should be demonstrated day by day.

    I think that San Valentin is a comercial day because people wants to do a detail for their couple like buy flowers, chocolate, clothes, jewelry and even trips. It is supposed to celebrate love but some people do it for pretend they have a perfect relationship posting photos on social media. For some people the gifts are the most important but it don´t demostrate the love. Not for giving something bigger you love more and viceversa.

    San Valentin is a day for enjoy with your couple, family or yourself. Little things are more valuable, like going for a walk to a beautiful place, write a letter saying what you feel or think of that person. I think that the gifts are secondary in this day, the important thing is demostrate love to people you love. I don´t know if the true love exists but I believe in him. I think that when you are in love you could make every thing for the person you are in love with.

    San Valentin is celebrated each 14 February and in my opinion you don´t have to do a incredible gift to your couple as the little things are more beautiful. From my point of view you don´t need share your relationship in social media because people needn´t know all of your life, in conclusion love is one of the most beautiful things in life so enjoy it.

    But I'm sure that many others will go to have a dinner or to walk on the beach. I like Valentine's day but currently, Valentine's Day has become a commercial day, because the most of the people who have couples, buy some gift and for this reason this day it's a bit ridiculous.
    Althought I like this day I have never paid too much attetoin to this day, to be honest.
    It's a special day for all the couples but you can show your love to another person everyday, and the presents aren't really important.

  41. Love is essential in our lives and we must love and we must feel loved. For this reason we are fighting covid-19 day to day, the fear of transmitting covid to our loved ones makes us stay at home and not have contact with many people. Moreover, you not only love your partner, your boyfriend or your girlfriend, but you also love your family and your friends, and this keeps us alive.

    However, we should be careful about the people we love and the way we love, because we could be loving more than we are loved and it is bad for our health. Moreover, in the case of a relationship we should beware choosing our partner because we have to avoid toxic relationships. It is a topic that we see on tv everyday and it is a serious problem. For that reason we should make sure that the person next to us loves us well, without jealousy.

    Every February 14 the day of love is celebrated in Spain, which is Saint Valentine's day. Usually the day of love is only celebrated between couples and family or friends love is forgotten, which is the really important. On 14th of February we always see too many couples having a romantic lunch or romantic dinner together, but what we really see the most is a lot of presents on platforms such as instagram or facebook.

    Valentine's day has become a business day, and people think that if you have not received an expensive gift you are not loved, but it must change. Love should be celebrated every day and not the most important thing in a relationship are the gifts. Your partner should show you respect and affection everyday.

    From my point of view, the day of love should be celebrated everyday and I think that the smaller and more insignificant gifts are the ones that have the most value. A walk on the beach or in the mountains, watching a movie at the cinema or a romantic dinner are plans that do not need a lot of money and are very much enjoyed as a couple.
    For me, love is very important and without it, people would not enjoy life.

    1. Love is said to be the the one thing that keeps us alive. I believe that it is an undeniable fact, it is what really motivates us and keeps us going at the end of the day. However, many people misunderstand the concept of love and think that it only refers to a relationship kind of love ,when in reality love is deeper than that; you can love your family, friends and what's more, yourself.

      On the one hand, loving oneself is the true key of happiness. You ought to be comfortable in your own skin as you are the only person who will be a constant in your life, neither your family nor your partner, just you. Hence, having self-esteem is of paramount importance. It looks simple on paper but it may be difficult to apply it every day, due to that it takes a lot of work and courage to be proud of your own actions.

      On the other hand, having a special someone can also bring light into your life. Your partner is the one you choose to make your days better and to share memories ,good times and harder ones, the person you can rely on ,and who will guarantee you at least a laugh. Anyway, "all that glitters is not gold", you have to decide carefully who you will dedicate time to, because you can be in a toxic relationship where the other person limits your freedom instead of enhancing your lifestyle.

      To sum up, to love and to be loved is essential. Saint Valentine's day is just a day to enjoy with your beloved ones. No gift can be used to demonstrate the feeling of love, actions are far more important than material objects.

  43. As every year, Valentine's Day will be celebrated on February 14. It's a day when not everyone agrees. It doesn't matter if they're happily married or single: some hate this day, others love it. Many couples love to celebrate their relationship in a romantic way, but most avoid it.

    For me, Valentine's Day has gone from lover's day to the day where merchants are happy and take out as much money as they can. Love should not be related only to having a partner because it is reflected in an attitude towards itself, the other people and the beings we love.

    I think that love is something that is celebrated every day, and not something that is celebrated only once a year, this celebration makes us see love as something very material, in which only things are given away and money is spent, many people associate money with love.

    Some people believe that the more money their partners spend, the more love they have for them, and that is not true love is a feeling is not something that can be bought or has economic value.

  45. Valentine's Day is celebrated on February 14, It is a day in which people who love each other celebrate their love, with a dinner, gifts or with trips. Now in times of coronavirus it cannot be celebrate as in other years.

    For me, Valentine's Day is a very beautiful, but department stores also earn a lot of money from people's gifts. In my opinion there is not only one day where love can be expressed, for me love should be expressed every day by telling people that we want what we feel for them.

    Not only is there love between a man and woman, but there is also love from a mother, from a father to tour family to friends who are always there in a bad times, this is true love that lasts forever couples argue and them hatred is created and there is no more love but the love of a mother for a daughter is the best thing in te word.

  47. Every year the St Valentine's Day is celebrated. It's called St Valentine's Day and it's February 14th. It is a different day in which everyone expresses their love for the important people in their life. It is supposed to be towards the person with whom you maintain a loving relationship but I believe that it should not be that way people should express it both to their partner and to their parents, brothers or close people, many people think the same as me.

    St Valentine's Day comes from opposition from a priest named Valentine. It all comes from an emperor who forbade marriage between young people, since he thought that young, single and people without family were better soldiers than married people. The priest Valentine objected to this so he decided to continue marrying young couples in secret, but they caught him and sentenced him to death on February 14th. For this reason this day is celebrated every year.

    On St Valentine's Day I give small presents to my family and closest friends, such as roses or a teddy bear. I think it is a very significant detail to remember them on that day. For me it is a very beautiful day in which we can express our feelings towards the people we love.

    At school last year, the boys and girls of my class made a table decorated with hearts so that other students could order some stuffed animals, orses, carnations and other things; And we also created a very nice mailbox so that people could write letters and put them in that mailbox putting the person they want us to deliver it to and the class, these letters could be anonymous. On St Valentine's Day we went class by class handing out the letters and things to the people who had told us. For me it was a very nice and pleasant experience.

  48. As we all know, Valentine’s Day is celebrated every year on 14th February.

    This day all lovers, family or friends give each other roses, for friendship or love. Love should not be related only to having a partner, but also love has to be between loved ones and friends.

    Love and friendship has to be celebrated every day and not once every year. In my opinion, the fact that a day is celebrated Valentine’s Day I think reflects a material love, that the only thing that matters to demonstrate love is to give things away.

    Finally, I think you have to demonstrate love in another way without giving anything away, because there are people who believe that giving things away makes them more loving to their partners.

  49. I think that today is much more difficult to found the happiness, than it was few years ago, I think that if we ask from person to person if they are truly happy, or they don't told you the truth or they said you «NO», there is the possibility too that they said yes, but they could said yes because they don't know what be happy really means, and it is sad to think this but is the truth. I think that as the love of your family towards you is very important, but the love that each one has for himself from my point of view is greater, because after all the decisions that you have to make the day In the morning when starting a family and others it will be yours, although yes, I know that it belongs to your family a bit too but a large part of that decision is yours and if you are not brave when choosing and deciding that decision, I think that person is not prepared for that and not a brave person. Many people always put their family first, I respect their decision, but there is nothing like the self-love and courage that each one has of their own.

  50. As we all know, Valentine's Day is celebrated on February 14 every year.

    Valentine's Day is a day where people who love each other give each other things like roses, stuffed animals, chocolate and many more things. You can also give things between friends or family since Valentine's Day is not only for lovers, but also for people we love and appreciate.


    I also think that we haven't to wait for this day to show the affection that we have for a person, but that love is demonstrated day after day.

    All it all, I think that Valentine's Day is one of the most beautiful days of the year and that the love we have for a person should be taught every day and not just one day a year.

  51. Cybersecurity is an increasingly important topic, and it's great to see it being introduced to students at the high school level. By educating young people about the potential risks and best practices for staying safe online, we can help create a more secure and responsible digital world for everyone.

    It's the job of future and will be very important for the people in the future

  53. Valentine´s Day is celebrated because , in the 3rd century, in Rome, the priest Valentine died, because he was sentenced for celebrating marriages of young lovers in secret. It is celebrated on 14th February.
    Between friends, it is given a little present, postcards or chocolates. Between couples, it is given chocolates, flowers, postcards, parfums, or other things are given to each other..
    Also on Valentine´s Day, people go out to find their love. People say that Cupid is the god of love, and he is the one who shoots arrows with his bow to make someone fall in love with someone . When you fall in love with someone, you say "you have been arrowed by Cupid". He is represented with a band in his eyes, thit means that the true love arises from the soul ,and not the physical.While love lasts, neither of them see in each other any fault.
