Should Columbus Day Be Obsereved?




This debate has been argued for quite some time now. Looking back at history, as much as 517 years ago, Christopher Columbus might have been indeed, the first European to set foot on the continent, but was he alone or where there others here before him. It all started on a voyage back in the early 1490s when many people still felt the world was flat, and if you sailed far enough into the sea, one can fall off the edge, failing to their doom, so Columbus along with his sailors took sail in 1492 on the Pinta and the Nina to test theory, that the world was indeed round and there is a shorter route to India, Spain and Japan, if you sailed westwards. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella supported his plans, while others were scared and skeptical that the journey would not be completed. So in 1492 Columbus set sailed and reached San Salvador on October 12, 1492. When he first arrived he called the local people Indians, believing he was in India, he made numerous trips back and fourth from the Caribbean back to Spain. During his eight year voyage, Christopher Columbus was issued to go back and find gold and riches by the King and Queen. He did in fact find some, but it didn't cover the devastation he brought to the people of countries. His people brought diseases such as small pox, yellow fever, measles, and etc. The natives of the countries were either slaves or mistreated unfairly. Columbus did indeed accomplished his goals, but did he did it in a dignify way. In conclusion, I want to hear your thoughts and feedback, Should Columbus Day be observed?

Relationships Part 1

I have been inquisitive for quite some time now, to reveal the truth, of how woman and men feel about relationships.What are the physical and emotional characteristics that both men and woman look for when searching for the perfect mate. Are we all looking for the same qualities when it comes to our Romeo or Juliet, or does our personal taste differ? Many have written books and directed movies to test this thesis, but many times each conclusion has been concluded differently. One must ask, are we all the same, or are we different in our search. Many have even stated that both sexes derive from other planets, stating that the emotional connection and thought process are completely different. I believe for one to understand the other party, they must understand what makes them the person they are, and what qualities complement them. In the sense, of what makes the perfect significant other. I will test the theory by asking both parties what they look for in their ideal mate, and from there, draw my conclusion, of what makes men and woman both tick and their outlooks on relationships. I will observe and interview various parties from all backgrounds and walks of life, and see if they look for the same commonality in their partner. I will gather my observations and conclude my observation in the second part of my discussion. I will keep you posted.

My Love Mary Jane


I have a significant other,her name is Mary Jane,

She has been loyal to me,to this very day,

She uplifts my spirit, and brings calmness to my soul,

She sets my mind at ease,so the madness, I cant hold,

She understands my vision, so the mind can dream,

The pictures, that I see, allows me to scheme,

Many times, she sparks my imagination,

Others have said, there is no comparison,

She is always there for me, when I need her,

In Biblical days, Salomon the wises of wise,

Had the opportunity to hold her,

She nurses, and cures aliments,

Others are jealous of her, because they have no bearing,

She never brings drama, nor does she bring pain,

At times, she allows my mind to drift away,

Where pain is non existent, to what you see everyday.

Prayer to God


Dear heavenly father
Tomorrow, if I should lose my sanity
Will you still accept me? Definitely!
Please heavenly father
Understand me
I’m doing the best I could
Living in misery.
There is no love or patience
Dealing with reality, from a faraway distance

Dear heavenly father
Please understand my pain and sorrows
Living day by day, wanting to see tomorrow
The only thing the comes to a sleeping man is dreams
So with that, I hold on to possibilities
Dear heavenly father, don’t hate me
I just want to be transformed, and transcended beyond the person that I see.

Dear heavenly father
Please allow me to roam free
Because the spirit, trapped in this human form, is driving me crazy.
The mind constantly rolls like a ball, driving! my emotions up the wall.
Dear heavenly father, I know I’m here for a purpose
Just allow me to find the meaning
So life can be virtues.

Dear heavenly father, is there a place
In heavenly gates
For an angel, with broken wings
To wallow in happiness, and hold on to new things
Dear Heavenly father, tomorrow if I should shatter,
Would you accept me? So I can finally share the Laughter.

Acceptance


Sometimes, I cry

Wondering, searching for a place to hide

My soul yearns for acceptance

Trying to hold on to a new perception.


My soul burns with ragging heat

Trying to find a place, where ideas and beliefs are complete

My soul searches constantly, like the flowing waterfall

That I see before me

Pouring like water droplets.

To comprehend, what the mind can see.


My tears, washes away the pain

Searching for a place to hide away

Where the calmness of the sea

Is complementary to the soul.


Finally finding peace, where the mind can just stroll

Escaping from reality, to a fairytale, where stories are told.

Montezuma Weekend


From San Jose- Costa Rica we took our first trip weekend trip outside the city and to the beaches of Montezuma. Taking 2 buses and furry, the trip was well worth it, as we witness the nature and beauty of the country. We arrived around 8pm at night. Taking a total of 6 hours from the city, it wasn´t a walk in the park, being tried and hungry, but our excitement and anticipation killed all that . We found a nice setting by the beach, going for only 10$ a night, it was a cheap and convenient place to stay, especially with meals included. With the view over looking the beach, we couldn´t have asked for more. The hostel was fairly small, but good for the price we were paying for. Not to mention the meals included in our deal . Montezuma is a fairly small place, compared to the size of a street block, but everything was accessible and easy to get to. The place had it all, waterfalls, which was amazing to see. It was a wonderful experience. ATVs if you wanted to ride around, scooping out the country side.not to mention, the bars, restaurants, shopping, and the mini stores where you can buy souvenirs for your friends and love ones. The locals of Montezuma were friendly and very open to the fact tourist where visiting their area. The vibes were really laid back and chill and I for one had the opportunity to go a little crazy, when I went to a local club, they played and dance reggae music. The locals were entertained, as my friend Rohan and I put on a dancing display. We had the locals in a dancing frenzy.During the night everyone came out to enjoy themselves. During the day mostly everyone lived at the beach hammocks were set up to relax and the ocean waves were crashing down if you wanted to surf. The water was extremely cool and refreshing if you wanted to go swimming. The lasting impression I of going to Montezuma was gorgeous view of the waterfalls, my friends and I hiked a trail to the waterfalls. Once you arrived there, the view was mesmerizing and we took the opportunity to enjoy the view. I recommend to anyone when you come to Montezuma to go there, because the beaches are a god place to escape the madness of sirens and smog, and just relax and observe the sunset. The atmosphere is nice and the vibes is extremely laid back, if your looking for a place where you can have some good R&R.
