"I have a dream..." Martin Luther King Jr., Speech at Civil Rights March on Washington, August 28, 1963

In the entire life of the human being, the dreams have been the fuel which has motivated the men. Like the most of the people, the dreams have help me to direct my efforts and they still continue driving me through the life. In my life there are all kind of dreams; love dreams, professional dreams, personal dreams and others more. However, my main dream is having a family, not any family but a good one.
Certainly, a good family is far away to be an easy issue. Otherwise, building a family unit requires many efforts; gathering values, knowledge and patience as well. Nevertheless, for me a dream does not mean an impossible. In fact, a dream is something like a goal that keeps you doing your best everyday of your life and reminds you the sense of your life.
Finally, I am really proud of my family. Surely, we are not perfect, yet we have been able to improve our personal aspects and multiply our love. I would like that the family of my dreams overcomes us and becomes as proper as big is the world.

The most I like...


In Venezuela many different holidays during the year, we celebrate the Holy Week between March and April; we have scholar holidays during August and the third week of September as well. However, Christmas holiday are the most I like.



Christmas is special in Venezuela, all the relatives get together to celebrate the Nativity and the New Year, and so you spend a beautiful time sharing with all your family. In addition, only throughout this season we can enjoy a bunch of traditional food; in fact, they are so delicious that you feel a little sad when Christmas are ending.
Also, many people organize reunions which you can go and reunited with old friend or your friends’ relatives. In addition, the people use to be relax and happy(I think that this is the reason because the politicians use the holiday for the elections).
In conclusion, because of the family’s reunion, the happiness of the people and the food Christmas is the holiday most I like.

A favorite place between many greatest places


Since I came to Iowa City, my favorite place is the Coralville bike trail. Many people can be asking why this is my favorite location and I will be explaining along this writing.
First of all, the trail is set among of a beautiful forest where you can see the river, many squirrels, rabits even deer. As a consequence, you can feel near of the nature and enjoy the landscapes.
Second, it is possible doing different types of outdoor activities, you can ride bike, walk with your dog or do running; even many people go to the trail to study seated in its benchs.
Third, the people who frequent the trail are so kind, they give you a smile when they pass beside you. Because of these persons, you can feel part of the community. Also, this place is pretty quiet, so you can relax and rest of the common noise.
As a consequence of its characteristics and the benefits that produce me, the Coralville bike trail is my favorite place to be.
