Reflections on your greatness
You are great. You are far greater than you imagine. You are a unique creation of God,and entity given the power to create your own life, you only need to realize of this little but very important issue. When you look outside yourself for self-definition you are giving your power away., your self-definition, as the word says, is inside, is IN you, However, when you understand and accept that you alone possess the power to define yourself and your life, there are dramatic changes. Understanding that, as I always says, your Are the main motivator of your own destiny-
You are in charge. Think of your life as a movie. You are the writer, director, producer and star. You choose your co-stars and extras. You need people around you who motivate and never let you give up, people witha possitive thinking and a right attitude. Your life is a soil, watch out who is planting seeds in you, Because you will receive a permanently harvest.
Your thoughts determine your outcomes. ¿What is your main thought? This is one of the great mysteries. If you think you are average, you are. If you think you can’t win, you won’t. Conversely, if you see yourself succeeding, you will. If you expect great things to come to your life, they’re on their way. Expectation is the seed of faith, expect something different today. Make a difference today in your belief system, start over agaoin, no matter what happened, neves give up, keep moving to you goal. Do not let your circumstance determinate your future neither your feelings.
You bring others with you. Your courage and confidence to examine your life and make changes will have a profound effect on those around you. When you lift yourself up, others are lifted up too. This is what I called: law of attraction. You will have in your like whatever you think you deserve.
Your life. Your responsibility. The first and most important rule is to take responsibility for everything that happens in your life. Following this rule puts you in command. Winston Churchill said, “The price of greatness is responsibility.”

California
California
California is a land of contrasts. You can find the highest mountain (Mount Whitney 4,418 metres) only some miles away from the lowest point on the western hemisphere in Death Valley (86 metres below sea level). There the hottest temperature in the USA (56,7°C) was recorder. But it’s only hot in the South of California. The North of this state is cool, the middle has got a mild climate (San Francisco). There are lots of National Parks in this state like Yosemite or Redwood Forest. The largest living tree you can find in Sequoia National Park (General Sherman 86 m tall). The oldest living thing, a pine in Inyo National Forest, is over 4,600 years old.
In California you can find the world’s most fertile valley (cotton, sugar beets, barley, wheat, rice, fruit, grapes, vegetables). The biggest problems of California are water and the air pollution in the big cities. In 1906 there was a big earthquake in San Francisco. Most of the city was destroyed. The last big eathquake was in 1989. Lots of people are afraid of another big one today. It is only a question of time.
California became a US territory in 1847. On January 24th, 1848 gold was discovered at Sutter’s Mill, starting the Californian Gold Rush and bringing settlers to the state in large numbers. On 9th September 1850 California became a member of the Union.
California was hard hit by the Great Depression. However, San Francisco’s great bridges were opened in 1936-1937. In 1945 the United Nations was founded at San Francisco. By 1963, California could claim to be the nation’s most populous state. Los Angeles hosted the Olympic Games of 1984. Today California is famous for its computer and film industry (Silicon Valley, Hollywood)

Teacher: Silvia Guevara
Possesives
Los pronombres posesivos varían según “el que posee” y no según “la cantidad poseida”:
- my book, your book, my books, your books
Los hay de dos tipo según su función en la oración:
-
En función de artículo determinativo del sujeto:
Gramaticalmente funciona como un articulo determinativo del sustantivo al que acompaña, por lo tanto siempre va en primera posición dentro de la oración:
- My bag is blue (Mi bolso es azul)
-
En función de pronombre:
Gramaticalmente funciona como un pronombre en función de complento directo. Siempre va al final de la oración.
-That pencil is not yours (Ese lápiz no es tuyo)
Estas frases contestan a la pregunta : -Whose is this? (¿De quién es esto?)
