UNIT 2: HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICYMY STORY

Page 2: Unit 2: Honesty is the best policy

This is my history

Everything began in the high school, everybody knows that the change between high school and primary school is difficult. But in my case was a little less more than a normal change.

Why? These are several things to consider: I lived in Calle Blancos, (I still live here), a neigborhood no easy going,

because there were a lot of gangs, drugs, and “bad” friendiships. On the other hand my father won a scholarship in a private school and high

school I lived in a “mediun economic family class” I was admitted in a “high class high school”

These were the start of my two-faces lives

Division of worlds

One way to thing about was the fact of been in a private high school and a neighborhood with a lot of problems demands the need of adapt into two different worlds.

The need to fit into: high class (in the high school) Low and mediun class (my

friends of my neighborhood)

This afeccted….

This division of worlds affect the aptitude to my vision of life. But the real thing was that I never fit realy into a any world.

These things affect my relation with my high school partners because if somebody try to envolve in a young high class world, you need to be prepare, it isnt easy.

Later

The most of the guys didnt respect me, because I was a thin boy, and I never fit in their world, so I decided to mix this two worlds.

I brougth the violence to the high school to won the respect (I know, it wasnt a good idea)

I started to fight with any guy how face or disrespect me.

Became in a different guy

I started to get into the “Ultra” and my nickname was “Super”.

I was proud to be there. I felt “segure” into the Ultra

Page 7: Unit 2: Honesty is the best policy

Never Show Emotions

Be part of this “ultra”, said me “never, never, nobody will mess with me, i will never show my feellings”, because I didnt wanna appaer “weak”. In one hand you could say “try to avoid this things, but in another hand I wanted to win my respect”

Page 8: Unit 2: Honesty is the best policy

But something happened

I knew a girl, she lived in Calle Blancos too.

She was in a Christian Group So, like a “smart guy”, I got into

this group I really knew her, and she was

my girl friend We stayed together like two

years Later we broke up, and she lift

the group But something teld me, “stay in

the group” So I continued in this group

Page 9: Unit 2: Honesty is the best policy

This group…

This group changed me, bacuse there were a few things to take into consideration, that let me see a different way to life.

I began to feel part of something, the christian group let me found me, and I got a great idea of who i am.

The group let me find a way to follow, someone to believe, and this guy was Jesus.

But the damage was done.

Damage…

All the fights, all the indifferences of my high school class mates, affected my way to think.

My mind told me “never show weakness to nobody”!!! (this was a rule for me)

Until now I’m affraid to show weakness, feelings, and fears

Page 11: Unit 2: Honesty is the best policy

Two-faces lifes

I live in two-faces lifes, because I never show emotions of something bad that is happend to me.

Right now I try to hide all my problems I never show the truth of my interior. For everybody I look fine, but there are times

in witch I feel like somebody else.

Page 12: Unit 2: Honesty is the best policy

I lived like a two face guy

No feelings, no weakness Just a great face to the world, just.. Just

to survive

Page 13: Unit 2: Honesty is the best policy

Reality…

How many persons are living in a two-faces life?

Are you living in a two-faces live? If you think, we allways lie about

feelings.
