Folk tale

THE GRANDFATHER AND HIS GRANDSON

There was once a very elderly man, whose eyes did not see clearly    ,
his ears hearing weakly, his knees were trembling, and when he was sitting down to the table scarcely he could support the spoon, and he was spilling the broth on the tablecloth, or it was fallen of his mouth. His son and the wife of his son were disliked by this, for what the grandfather to the end had to sit down in a corner behind the stove, and were giving his food in a cavity of mud, and it wasn’t even containing the sufficient.

And he was looking at the table with the eyes full of tears. Once also, his tremulous hands could not support the cup, and it fell to the floor and broke. The young woman scolded him, but the elder did not say anything and only he sighed. Then they bought him an ugly plate of wood for a few cents, in which he had to eat.

One day, in which there were they sat together with the grandson four-year-old of age, he started to collected some pieces of wood in the floor.

- “What are you doing?” - The father asked.

- " I am saving pieces of wood "-, answered the child, - “for when I should be big,  have  that give to eat to  my father and my mother. "-

The man and his wife looked in a time, and finally they began to cry.

Then they took the grandfather to the table, and he always continued eating with them, and equally they did not return to reproach him, if he was spilling a bit of anything.

“I chose this Folk Tale because it gives us a reflection about the respect, comprehension and love that we have to give them the elderly persons, and they has to be an indispensable part of our diary to live.”

RIDDLES

I come one in a minute,

Twice in a moment,

But never in a thousand years.

   You hear my sound,

You feel me when I move,

                                But see me you never will.

I always run, but never walk,

I have a bed, but I don’t sleep.

I have a mouth, but I don’t eat.

 

Multiculturalism

Multiculturalism relates to communities containing multiple cultures. The term is used in two broad ways, either descriptively or normatively.

As a descriptive term, it usually refers to the simple fact of cultural diversity: it is generally applied to the demographic make-up of a specific place, sometime at the organizational level, e.g. schools, businesses, neighbourhoods, cities, or nations.
