Now with the rainy weather and so many problems, the shortage of water and food since many crops have been lost due to various factors, heat, cold, too much rain, and so on.
Would be good to think as a family or as individuals in the realization of a store with the groceries non-perishable that do not require refrigearacion since in many occasions are cut lines of light and gas for safety.
And really not ignore this advice because they help us in the times that are ahead because they are contrary to improve encrudecera each day more.
Those of us fortunate to have a home, family, food, do not misuse it's not the waste water nor food tmapoco because there are millions around the world die every minute due to lack of these needs to live.

People who speak English come from many different countries and regions,and they have all kinds of different accents.It may be hard to understand them at first, but after a little while it gets easier.You may have to ask them to speak more slowly at first.Oh, by the way,you know that I am from Mexico and I am studying English.
The last semester went for improve my pronunciation and learn more of other culture.
The first time was very dificult for my understand because the people spoke faster and sometimes I feeling badly.

PARALYMPIC GAMES


Hey this week I would like to share something about sports although a bit late but it will be nice to remembered by the whole story in sports. Of course I will refer to Mexican athletes in Paralympic Games in the past where we did a much better role and where we have always brought medals. It's amazing what these athletes perform at least to my ability to surprise is surprising because it has the courage, to pursue their dreams to make it clear we never really thought leaving their targets to a final victory because his goal from the beginning was so reach the final and also get to win.
