will continue

The semester is completed and probably some social work have finished too, but mine wil be continue because I have commited with the school and with myself. Until now I have learn a lot, my view of life have change and I like how I see social work now!!!
The project last one year, and i will be until the end because if I leave my social work will be incomplete and I wouldnt see the final result.
I remembar that in class we talk that every work have to has a purpose so if I want to carry out that purpose i have to stay, because each of the persons that are involve are neccesary for carry out the project.
These subjetc and these social work has transformate me.

I have change

During my social work I have mature, I have grow as a person, i have change some of my ideas, i have take responsability with my society.
when I start working I thought it was a good project and also was related with my career so was good opportunity to began my social work but as time passed I have get really involve with these kids. Every week I prepare good activities that can respond to their interest, I enjoy taking with the kids, because they have good and bad experiences that sometimes we know that exist but we dont know they are very common. When we were at the park one of the girls sat beside me and told me that his dad drink every day and when he arrived to their house she became very nervous because many times his dad hits his mother. I ask if his father also hits her but she told that never has occurs. While i was listening I imagine the situation and I realize that I have to be grateful with my life, with God. Sometimes I thought that have big problems but is not true because I can resolve the problem but exist others problems that are really difficult to resolve.
Returning to the class I realize that I have to use my cognitive surplus, that I have to take advantage of all my knowledge if i want to contribute with the society!

not only on saturday

The titlle of this post in "not only on saturday" because my social work implies more than only go on saturday at 8:30, during the week i have to prepare what we are going to do with the kids, have to meet with the students to talk about our plan.
For me is very nice see how students are really involve with the social labor, in a certain point i think that our society are changing, young people are work in favor of others, they are recognizing their rol in society. I mention this because i have notice that these students are making this social labor not only because in a requirement for graduate they enjoy teaching people of low incomes.
This saturday when I returned to my home i realize that this social work is a "mutualism" because is true that I am teaching kinds but i the other hand every saturday I learn a new thing. Today I learn that each of these kids have their own background and they act depending on that, so when we are in fronte of those kids we have to consider how the kid has grow.
This saturday was a new experience.....
