DESIDERATA

 
Desiderata

Author : Max Ehrmann 

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, 
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. 
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others,
even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; 
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. 
Keep interested in your own career, however humble; 
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; 
many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, 
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.
Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with imaginings. 
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; 
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, 
keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Max Ehrmann c.1920

PRESENTACION DEL BLOG

Estimados alumnos del nivel avanzado quisiera realizar esta entrada en castellano para presentaros formalmente mi blog letslearnalltogether. Un blog educativo que ha nacido a raiz de un curso que he realizado online sobre las nuevas tecnologías aplicadas a la enseñanza de los idiomas; pero que me gustaría desarrollar poco a poco hasta integrarlo de forma natural a mi práctica docente con el fin de convertirlo en un punto de encuentro virtual tanto dentro como fuera del aula donde pasar un buen rato aprendiendo y practicando inglés. . 

letslearnalltogether pretende ser un blog interactivo que fomente la práctica de la expresión escrita y oral. Mi principal objetivo es que "expresarse en inglés" se trasforme en algo natural  para vosotros, en una herramienta más a la hora de comunicaros en inglés de forma espontánea; para que no sólo escribáis o habléis en inglés por obligación, como parte de una tarea a realizar dentro de un curso o porque tenéis que realizar un exámen.  

Letslearnalltogether va  ser un blog interactivo en que todos nosotr@s (alumn@s y profesora) seamos escritores/lectores y podamos realizar comentarios y aportaciones varias, incluso oralmente. Espero que el contenido del blog sea de vuestro agrado , tanto las tareas que iré subiendo para la práctica de la expresión escrita y oral; como los diversos links, fotografías y videos&nbsp para la práctica de la compresión lectora y auditiva. 

Sólo me queda añadir una cosa más antes de concluir: Welcome to Letslearntogether
and I hope you join it.
