It seems to me that nowadays it is quite hard to make a difference in every sense, since everyone and everything is just an imitation of another one or thing. Starting with our nation, it is a sort of imitation of Europe, what is more, we have started to acquire some North American traditions; little by little we are losing our origins. For that reason, I think that change some things we don’t believe they are correct, it is very very difficult, for we have those deep-rooted customs. Although, there are some people who try restless to do something to change the processes that life are taking and they strongly believe they could be eradicated or in other cases improved, such as the treat we have with our indigenous people. After of watching the video I could realize about something: we do need some creative, attractive, and originals ways to make a difference. I mean, in the video the man who was talking, related all the procedures they did to try promoting consciousness in people about the family planning in Thailand, and I think that they were pretty good activities, very originals, also attractants. Even though, it seems to be made by a small group of people, they really made a difference in the place, promoting contraceptives, particularly the condom, among families, children, teachers, everyone, and everywhere. And that’s because they knew how to get to the people with some procedures that caught their attention, and that’s what we need in our country if we want to change something; more than being a huge group of people thinking alike, we need original ways to get to the people.
I think the same that you Fran, but maybe I feel that we need to have a feeling in common.
ReplyDeleteSomething that is bigger than us.
Well, I agree on the fact that you don't need to be in a huge group to make a difference. Nevertheless, according to the fact that we as a country are a copycat, maybe there is where we can do something. I mean, you can just stop being a copycat and that's all. It is easy to make a difference, and not so easy to make changes. But you have to start somewhere. Don't ya think?
ReplyDeleteyes, it's very important to think in a different solutions to problems, because not always traditional solutions are the best.
