The loss of a loved one

     The loss of a loved one is often very painful. When someone close to us dies creates a very deep pain because it is someone with whom you have lived so many important moments. Everyone reacts differently to the loss of a loved one. This loss can affect in different ways. Many people are affected emotionally as it is hard to get over. 

     The duel is used to enable people to take comfort from the loss of that loved one. The ceremonies help people cope the first days of the loss of a loved one and honor his memory. In those days you do not feel the emptiness that person leaves; you start feeling it  when you're alone remembering every moment lived with that person. Mostly it is at that moment that they begin to think what it will be now that human being is not present. That's where they begin to find some way of coping that grief, whether it's trough religion or otherwise.  Now they just have to accept the loss and live with the beautiful  memories that the loved being left.

Helping others

        There are certain things we do in our lives that fill us as humans and change our perspective of things. Our actions define who we are. Helping others without expecting anything in return is one of those things that touch our heart and gives us a pure happiness. The satisfaction and the feeling of calm that we receive after giving a hand to the needy is simply inexplicable. People who selflessly help don't receive money or recognition, they just carry with the gratitude of having contributed to social improvement. 

        I believe that happiness is a way of life, because no matter the negative things that happens, we must always see the bright side of every situation. There are those who dedicate their lives helping others to social improvement. We live in an unequal world where not all were born with all the amenities. To start eradicating inequalities, we must help those who suffer it and serve as a tool for change. Doing good without looking at who, is one of the most beautiful gestures that can be done because it feeds our soul and heart. There’s no money or anything material that can replace the infinite happiness we feel when we contribute positively to someone's life. We must change our mentality, stop focusing on material things and help with the heart, because this certainly gives us a genuine happiness. 

Introduction week

Hi! Welcome to my reflexion lounge. My name is Millie Anette Matos Matos. I'm studying adapted physical education at the University of Puerto Rico, Cayey campus. I'm known for being someone kind, friendly, cheerful, cooperative, discrete, honest and loving. My favorite type of flowers are sunflowers and I identify very much with them for their delicacy. Sunflowers inspire me and give me peace and joy. The reason why I created my blog is due to an English class. On my blog I will be writing on various topics and I hope they will be of your liking. Thank you!
