The Ghost of the Things Yet to Come showed to Scrooge how people would react after his death. This travel made Scrooge think in two different topics, consequence and time. The first lesson that he learn was that if he don't was good for people, them will not treat him well neither during his life nor after his death. The second lesson was that he didn't knew how much life time he still had for change those situations. When he realized that he maybe didn't had time for be a better man, he became desperate.   

Write a dialogue from a movie you like.

     Step-mom

     Isabel and Jackie are in a restaurant talking about the future of their family. Isabel is married with Jackie's ex husband. Jackie is in the last stage of cancer and she is concerned about what will happened with her two kids. This dialogue is the climax of the movie. The both women are trying to solve their difference for the happiness of the children.

     "You know, I never wanted to be a mom. Sharing it with you... that's one thing.", said Isabel, "  It's another to be looking over my shoulder for the next twenty years, knowing someone else would have done it better... someone else would have done it right."

     " What do I have that you don't?", asked Jackie. 

     "You're Mother Earth, incarnate." , replied Isabel.

     "You're... hip, and fresh.", said Jackie

    "You know every story, every wound, every memory. ", completed Isabel, "Their whole life's happiness is wrapped up in you... every single second. Don't you get it? Look down the road to her wedding. I'm in a room alone with her, fixing her veil, fluffing her dress, telling her no woman has ever looked so beautiful. And my fear is she'll be thinking, "I wish my mom was here."

     "And mine is... she won't.", said Jackie, "But the truth is, he doesn't have to choose, she can have us both love us both. She will be a better person because of me and you. I have her past, and you can have her future."

        The women finished their conversation, they realized that both want the best for the children even if their have different ways for doing it.  

      

Describe a picture you find on Flickr.

       This picture remember me the city of Valdrada described by the character Marco Polo in the book Invisible Cities - by Ítalo Calvino. The aesthetic from the buildings is clearly different, this is a real modern English city, while Valdrada was a city from the 13th century described poetically. 

     Someone who didn't read this book can be thinking what this two cities have in common after all? They are both duplicated places, the proximity with some water sources made these cities exist twice, first in the reality and after in the mirrored image.   The city from the picture is located near to the ocean, so the buildings on the reflected images are figures, sketches of the real ones. This is the perfect combination and how pretend the thinks are and of how they really are. This modern cities, whit concrete skyscrapers and asphalt streets send a message that everything is right, every decision was made, everyone know how they are, what they want. But this isn't true, people are uncertain, have doubts, problems that they don't know how to solve, feelings that they don't recognize. 

      The image reflected in the sea, shows the soul of the city, where everything is ephemeral and able to change with a wave's movement.
