My Reflexion About the Teen Life Project on Terrorism

Having a project like his can make you feel different things. At the beginning, you feel as if you were in the air- you don´t know what to write about, neither how to begin or end. What you only know is that you have to do it and that time is running. But when you begin – which I think is the most difficult of all-, the ideas sprout out and you write and write and sometimes you have to stop and go back and then go forth again to complete an idea or to give shape to it, or to start reading what you have written to see if you repeated an idea, or if an idea should be here or there, or if you could use this word or another. Neither way, you learn a lot. You have to find out about the topic, and the more you investigate the more you learn and the more the ideas get clearer in your mind causing you to have a position on the topic or subtopic you are talking about. An often you realize how wrong you were before or how different you think now, and you understand why someone has said this or that, and you can agree or disagree with more confidence, and you can also understand more when you watch a programme about the same topic or even participate in a conversation that people usually say that it is a grown up conversation. You also learn that sometimes your heart feels in such a different way as your mind thinks as you don´t know how you would act in a situation that you haven´t lived- but others have-, and you can forget about the problem of the topic when your living your life- I mean, in your daily actvities.

Finally, I think that if we practice about strategies that have to deal with the topic of our project- a problem of our society- in order to live better and to do something to help humanity, the project would be more effective and we really would reach our goals.
