Investing in facilities: an essay

It is often said that authorities should invest more money in certain facilities; however, there are still debates on how it should be done and which are the future areas to invest in. Clearly, there are several aspects to consider when deciding which are the most suitable sectors; for that reason, two possible ideal places for investment will be discussed in this essay.

First of all, there is support for sports centres. There are many different reasons why attention should be paid to this type of centre, but undoubtedly one of the most important has to do with the health of the population. Investing in the construction or improvement of this class of places serves as motivation for the population to become interested and seek not only to stay fit but also to be distracted and reduce stress levels in the body. Consequently, they can live a much fuller life and perform much better in all areas of their personal and professional lives.

Similarly, another option to consider is the implementation of public gardens. These are not only pleasing to the eye but also a place where every citizen can go to take a break and connect with a bit of nature. In addition, it constitutes an area where families can go to distract themselves and have a pleasant time. It should be noted that due to the urbanization of cities, many green spaces have been lost, so it is an excellent idea to be able to recover certain areas that already existed and give them a touch of freshness and aesthetics. This would encourage people of all ages to visit these beautiful parks and improve tourism and the local economy.

From my point of view, measures can be implemented so that both projects are carried out. In other words, sports centres do not have to be isolated places, rather they can be part of parks, as has been seen in other areas of the world.

You and me bleed the same light

Throughout this journey in developing better writing, I have been able to read many of your posts. Because of them, I have laughed, I have cried but above all, I have remembered that we all share something. We might consider ourselves completely different from each other, but are we strangers after all? Not really, at the end of the day, we all share a beautiful light that is born from the depths of our being.

Many of the times, by trying to survive in this world full of selfishness we unconsciously become selfish too. You for sure know that sensation of insufficiency and sorrow even after giving your everything. It is like they take from our hands something we have been treasuring, making us suffer more than a child whose precious toy has been taken away. Faced with such situations, who would not harden their heart a little so as to be less vulnerable? That is what it is, and we can't be judged for that.

We as human beings are designed to love; love people, animals, and even the breeze that brushes our face during a warm afternoon. Yet, it is sad that we have become indifferent to that love, moving away from our essence and in turn, putting barriers between us and others. If you have not reached that point, let me tell you that I am very glad for you. If, on the other hand, you feel that something or someone is missing in your life, do not be afraid to go in search of it because after all, life is short and you do not want to live with the thought of "what if" or "if only I". Don't wait until tomorrow to smile more, don't wait until tomorrow to be that helping hand your neighbour needs, don't wait until tomorrow to be a better version of you. Struggles and sorrows will always be there, but you need to make sure you get back on track if you ever feel like you've lost your way. You will make mistakes and you will learn from them. Do not judge yourself too much for that, at the end of the day, everything is past. Think that when you wake up and open your eyes every morning you are being reborn and that your soul blooms just like a flower.

For today I will end this post with one of my favourite songs. See you later, dear friend.


I know you're chokin' on your fears
Already told you I'm right here
I will stay by your side every night

Me and my bad memory pt.1

The idea for this blog was initially different. I wanted to share some of my memories from the past and that's when the lightbulb went off with a totally different idea: my bad relationship with my ability to remember things.

Commonly I tend to think that I have a bad memory because sometimes I forget the things that I have done throughout my life. From one moment to another when I talk to my friends, for example, it's like they ask me what I did when I was younger and then my mind draws a blank. Although I consider that my life has been and is quite boring, it is not that I have not done anything, or maybe I have? It's hard to know for sure, and that thought from time to time runs through my head to the point of making me feel worried at times. This is not precisely because of fear of memory loss but rather because of the thought of not having done enough when I was in the spring of life. Such a thought is a bit dramatic and hysterical considering the fact that I am a young person, I could even say that I have only lived a quarter of what I plan to live in my entire life.

Anyway, sometimes my brain plays tricks on me, that's why now, while I'm writing this blog, I'm considering creating a kind of diary where I write down relevant events. These might be on the ones that have marked my days, whether these events have passed or things that will surely take place in the future.

Tell me about yourself, have you ever had these kinds of thoughts? If the answer is no, please share with me some of your most precious memories from your youth.

The hardest decision that I did not know I would have to make pt. 2

Last week I talked about my expectations when I started this new phase of my life, university life. From the beginning, the path was difficu...
