Romeo & Juliet


          Juliet's balcony and the lovers' terrace is one of the most romantic places in the world.  It seems to live there the atmosphere and the passion of Romeo and Juliet.  This place is also a part of the setting of one of the most important Shakespear's plays.  Another interesting thing to do here is to engrave your name on the Lovers' Terrace to be part of Verona History. 
    

     The walls of house are all " decorated " with graffiti and love notes.  The tradition says that everyone who visits the house should leave something for Juliet.  So the house is packed with love notes, small jewelery, and heart shaped chewing gum.  And Juliet's statue is also a must see. In ancient stories it's good luck for love if you touch her right breast.

A True Listner?

     One of the situtaions in Mice and Men where a charecters seeks out someone who they confide in is when Lennie confides George.  George keeps the secret of when Lennie touches the girl in the red dress. If george would of told everyone Lennie could have been in a big trouble.  Lennie has to listen and trust George with his secret.
     What makes up a good listener?  I think it is someone who acually listens to your problems and doesn't judge you.  Also, someone who will understand what you are going through. They don't bring up their own problems.  I have trusted some of my friends before with my secrets, but sometimes they can not keep them.  It reminds me to not trust them again.  I have lots of friends who are really good listeners also. They listen and acually care about my problems I am telling them about.  They also don't rudely interupt or try to change the subject. 
     I have confided with my friends before.  Everyone has probably have done it.  There isn't a problem trying to handle their trust.  Most of the secrets come out if you are gossiping.  Gossiping is when you talk and give information about someone even though it may or may not be true.  At the most part I trust my friends and they trust me back.

Perfect World

     When people think of a perfect world some think fame and fortune.  But, in reality that's not all life is about.  It's about being together with your family.  Family meansin the dictionary,  a basic social unit consisting of parents and their children, considered as a group, whether dwelling together or not.

     Also, a world with no judgement.  But the truth is no matter how bad we would want that to happen it will never come true.  Everyone has their own opinion.  And some people don't like being the same.
   
    I now in my belief no one should be judged by their race, gender, religion, how rich or poor you are, and how you look.  Everyone should be treated the same way. Many people are judged everyday.
