Communication is the key!

2023-11-29 22:26:43 UTC

Today i once again learned about the value of the cultural heritage as our main source of the human creativity exampeled by the „multicultural“ life in the rainforests and by an exercise about the travelling to other countries. Once again it turned out, that it is so important to communicate at all to preserve and conservate the cultural habits. Still, in all the differences we will always find way more similarities. How exciting!

Today I learned how cultural heritage is perceived in different places around the world. It is important that young people understand the importance of their heritage. P.S. My favorite app is Forms. In my opinion, the best software in the world is EXCEL !!!😀

Communication is the key

Our day started at 9 a.m. in the rainforest of Guadeloupe. After a short hike where we got to know the diversity of this fantastic ecosystem, we took a short break by a river. We talked a lot about differences between cultures and through a small exercise we became aware of how to deal with them and, above all, how to prepare students for them. The solution is as simple as it is powerful: communication. When we talk to each other and are open about things that are supposedly strange, many supposed problems appear in a completely different light and we begin to understand each other. Everything is a question of perspective and breaking down these perspectives and developing understanding and interest in other lifestyles is a key skill in our modern world.

My whole life is one journey! Those who always travel will not lose their spirit.

Today I have a song in my mind. It is quit old song but nice. The all my feelings I want to say with this song. I found translation in English and I would like to share it with you. You already now word "Priekā" (joy). Let's sing together! https://youtu.be/dvgG_Iwd8fI?si=8rzQGaPqMquEhZsb

Visa dzīve man viens ceļojums,
My entire life is just one journey,

Visu dzīvi es eju tik pie jums.
I walk my whole life only towards you.

Pār lejām un pār kalniem,
Over valleys and over mountains,

Caur tveicēm un caur salnām,
Through fields and through snowstorms,

Ar drosmi un ar bailēm, bet pie jums.
With courage and with fear, but to come to you.

No jums es esmu sācies,
From you, I have started,

Pie jums es tagad nāku,
Now I am coming to you,

Man līdzi vienmēr ceļotāja prieks.
The joy of a traveler is always with me.

Priekā eju pie jums,
I walk towards you with joy,

Un priekā jādzīvo mums,
And we should live with joy,

Un priekā jūtu es jūs.
And I feel joy because of you.

Man prieks vienmēr būs.
I will always have joy.

Tie, kas mūžam ceļos, tie nenoskums.
Those who always travel will not lose their spirit.

Smiesimies par likstām,
We will laugh at difficulties,

Jo tā mēs tālāk tiksim,
Because that's how we will go further,

Jo tad neviens vairs nesmiesies par mums.
Because then no one will laugh at us.

Visi ceļi mani ved pie jums,
All roads lead me to you,

Prieka pilna spēle ir ceļojums.
The game of journey is full of joy.

Bet, ja nākas zaudēt,
But if I have to lose,

Es smejos, tad ne raudu,
I laugh, I don't cry,

Jo zinu - tikai prieks mani ved pie jums.
Because I know - only joy leads me to you.
