Email to Lourdes

Dear, Lourdes

I’m Dídac Garriga Salleres. I’m seventeen years old. I have blue eyes. When I was a little child I was a troublemaker but as I grew up I behaved better. I play basketball in Adepaf Figueres because I had success in Castelló d’Empúries when I played for C.B.Castelló. Apart from the sport I have to focus in my studies because I know that the players who will be devoted to basketball are quite tall and I’m too short. I have one brother, Roger. He’s twenty and he is studying in Girona to be a technical of air machines. My parents are more than forty years old. They studied chemical engineering in Girona but neither are doing chemical engineering. My mother is the manager of Sersall a company founded by my grandfather. The company is about the collection of aliments, plastics, …
My father is a teacher who works in the Montessori School in Figueres

I don’t know what I will be or do but I would like to do a few things in my life. I would like to be a veterinary of a park like Loro-parque in Canarias. I would also like to produce biodiesel to put in my car and focus in the things that are related with the recycling.
The short goals that I would like to carry out is to finish high school with good grades and go to the university of Girona to study engineering, for that I will never drop out my studies.
The long terms goals are the things that I would like to do when I will be older. Currently I don’t have any apart from the things that I explained before.

I like the sentence: “No one’s written your destiny for you, because her you write your own destiny.”
This sentence is so powerful and emotional because it means that you can do whatever you want. Everyone can earn money for work on what you want provided that is legal.

I hope you it. Best wishes !

Mark Bezos: A life lesson from a volunteer firefighter


Mark Bezos is a assistant captain of a volunteer fire company. He explains to us his first fire. He was the second of the scene, he had to find the captain. He founded next to the homeowner who was wearing barefoot and pajamas. The first of the scene saved the homeowner's dog. The captain say to Mark that he had to enter in the house and got a pair of shoes. He did. A few weeks later he received thanks from the homeowner.

I like from the video one sentence: Not every day is going to offer us a chance to save somebody's life, but every day offers us an opportunity to affect one.
This sentence makes you realize that you have to live every day like as if it were the last because you have to enjoy the day.

Finally he say that all of things that he did like a volunteer, he learn that all are important. Bezos say an advice: Don't wait to earn the first million to make a difference in somebody's life. If you have something to give, give it now.
