  2. Another thing...about the book.

    I consider its a pitty we are not speaking more about the book.
    Its a reading club!!so go on the read of the book.
    i think there is plenty of interesting topics that could come up from the reading.

    I give some advices: -People can read at home 1,2 or 3 chapters and bring some doubts about vocabulary to share whitin the group and make clear togheter.
    -Also each one people can think about the reading and try to share some observations about the characters, their relationships,the meaning of the social background that its reflected in the story, the way of writting,

    Ok, thats all for today. please think about it

  3. Hello,
    Jessica, I forgot that i had a conference yesterday at 7.30,and it is the reason i left the class.
    What have you done yesterday?
    I would like to speak about the video we saw yesterday. Personally, I think there are to much videos and books like this one , but I don´t like too much this kind of items.

  4. Hello everyone. I just want to drop a line about our mettings.
    First of all, last session I get anxious with the video and felt blocked to go on the chat.

    -I consider its not a good idea to go over not matter whatever subject at each session. In that way, each one can bring a video that you don’t feel interested on it, and it’s a very much kind of imposition when you are forced to watched it for one hour long.

    -Avoid some of the people leading the chat just because he is taking the floor all the time. Thats why is important have some points to go over and give everyone the chance to speak out. Maybe it’s a matter of good manners but some of the people are showing they don’t care about what the others have to say.

    -Every single one should have the same time to speak out. For me its very important the dialogue was organised by Jessica, and Please!!avoid some people yelling!!we all should put our hands up instead of the voice.

    That’s all for now. Take it in the right way everyone!!

    Also I would like to let you know I enjoyed the last session a lot. I think is very enriching to have the opportunity of learning about all kinds of topics even if you don´t like them too much and make the most of the differece thoughts of all us,as we are such a heterogeneous group.

    Have a good weekend and be happy, and remenber, All you need is love!!! so

    Thanks for letting me know about your conference, I get a bit scared when I realize you weren´t there :)

    Last session we watch the video Overcoming Fear (Full Confidence) With the Power of Love, de Verónica de Andrés.

    There is a link in our blog, for you to watch it ….someday, any day ;)

    I really recommend it.
    It touches you; it is a message that touches you deeply!!!
    I believe everyone should watch this movie,
    I feel identified with many things…It is very useful for our daily lives…

    Amazing!!!Inspiring!!!Enlightened!!!Excellent!!!

    Thanks a lot to Ángela, our college, for sharing it with all of us.

    From fear to Love!!!
    Always ;)

  9. Hello Jessica. i am not coming todays session because the job. but i really apreciate your comment. i will be there next week.
    what i share in my comments its just because i really think its for make the best for everyone of our mettings.and i have to say i convivnced of it because its how things go right whiting a group of people, and of course i am not banning anyone from participate,but the time should be for the goals of the team,
    theres no sense speaking of no matters the issue. anyway, i got nervous when some people speak the most of time and anothers dont feel helped to speak, there are more people in the group that they probably need some help to feel more confidence to speak, but sometimes its really hard in our chat.take it as a good advice!!. i know you loving person. thanks for all.
