After Five Years



     People′s lives are changing completely or partially all the time. However, in my case, my life is now completely different than it was five years ago for many reasons. First I′d like to explain how it was five years ago. I lived in Angola, my native country, with my mother , my two sisters, my two brothers, my grandparents, my uncles, my aunts and my cousins; it is a real big family. We had a simple life, but it also had some difficulty because my mother had stopped working. I was studying in Secondary School very simple, too. I was a complicated teenager who could not do anything alone, and I also had not known Jesus Christ. I had never traveled in all my life, and everything changed when that happened. Now I will show you how my life has changed completely after I moved to the U.S.A. It was my first journey. Since this time, I traveled one more time. I had to learn how to continue my life without my family′s advice. Therefore, now I can say that I am an adult. I am living in dream country for many people, and I am very happy. In sum, today my life is very different than five years ago.

The Two Faces of Technology

      In these days, technology has made people′s lives easier than ever, but it also has destroyed communication among friends and family. We can see that technology helps us to do many things that we never thought that we could do. First of all, we can work, study or have fun without so much effort. It also makes it easier to meet people and get a lot of experience with them about many different cultures in world. In addition, technology helps to improve areas in the society such as education, health care, and communication. In contrast, technology has also destroyed the communication among friends and family. It happens because people don’t worry anymore about personal contact; this means that they don’t like to, or they can’t talk with another person face-to-face. We can also see in many families that sons don’t talk with their parents because they prefer use the internet to get the answers for their problems. Furthermore, many people who are supposed to be friends don’t really know each other. For example, we find this situation on Facebook, Twitter, or WhatsApp.  In conclusion, technology is a fantastic and helpful tool in our lives, but it also destroys the communication among family and friends.

The Greatest Life Changer


         Most people believe that Jesus Christ doesn’t have any extraordinary attribute that can impress them, and he doesn’t do anything really special. However, Jesus Christ is the best person to know if you want to change completely all your life for the better. First of all, only he has a strict way to take care of us because he knows the deepest things in our lives. He also has an indescribable way to understand all our needs better than ourselves. In addition, he carefully satisfies those needs by giving us what we really need. Another sensational attribute of Jesus Christ is his perfect patience because he waits for everybody's time to accept him, so it doesn’t matter how old are you. You can be a naive child or an experienced adult, but for him it doesn’t matter. Of all Jesus Christ's attributes, the most important is his indescribable love. To illustrate that, he came to die for all the diverse people in the world even though this same world rejects him all the time.  However, he has already given us his incomprehensible love that makes us wonderfully free from all the complicated prisons of the soul. In conclusion, if you want to change your life to the better and receive real happiness, I insistently suggest you to know this awesome man, Jesus Christ.
