There is an example about this sentence in my life. When i was 7 years old. I loved cars(i still love them), and moto-cycle that things had speed, and something i could ride on it. Back then(when i was 7 years old) i was in love with car, and that time even my dream was invent a "flying car". Anyways i thought car, and motos were not that dangerous, i just liked the speed they have, and love to ride on my toy motocycle. So, i didn't have any fear about cars, and motos. My mom worried a lot that i didn't have fear about those things, because i didn't raise my hand when i walk across the street, i liked to play next to car, or behind a car, and with car. I really didn't care about the "dangerous of car". One day my uncle came to my kindergarten to pick me up, he let his car across the street, and i needed to get there. I think he shouted to me : "Tae!, raise your hand and never run, and look around your self". But i didn't care about what he told me to do. I just ran to him, and got crashed by a motocycle, well luckily i didn't break any bone, and i didn't even bleed, but my heart was beating so fast i got so scared about that moto, and accident. By that i realized that motocycles are dangerous thing. I thought they were nothing, they don't heart, they are not dangerous, so i thought i never going to have a car accident, or motocycle crash. But what happened to me was shocking. I took x-ray, but everything was okay. So i didn't know motos were dangerous until i had a crash.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"35685722","dateCreated":"1299802355","smartDate":"Mar 10, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"jose_4595","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/jose_4595","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/35685722"},"dateDigested":1531974100,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"jose rodriguez","description":"A principle I am very familiar with would be \u201cyou don\u2019t know what you have until its gone\u201d. I believe that this is true because I have lost, given, or thrown away some things that I thought weren\u2019t important, and then I noticed that it is important to me. One example I can think of right now would be the time when I got grounded and my parents took my ipod. I had done bad in school that quarter and my parents got mad because they thought that I listened to my ipod too much. I said that I didn\u2019t and that I can go a long time without listening to it. So they said ok, and they confiscated it. I said to myself that I chose my words poorly, but I wanted to prove to them that I can stop listening to my ipod. They took it for about 2 weeks. Those 2 weeks were eternal for me. I didn\u2019t know what could I do, I couldn\u2019t concentrate, and I walked around the whole house thinking of what could I do to forget about the ipod, but nothing came up to me. When I was left alone in the house I tried to look for it so that I could listen to it for at least a while but I never found it. When they finally gave it back to me I was so happy that I finally have the most important material thing in my life. I listen to my ipod everyday, all day. I listen to it when I do my homework, when I eat, I sometimes even sleep with it on. Now I learned that the ipod is very important to me and now I would never tell anyone that I can go a couple of days without my ipod because I know that it is not true.

It has proven to be true to me in many occasions starting to a school trip I went once to. Every time I\u2019m at home I would unconsciously get mad at the maids when they would cook with spices that I didn\u2019t like when I would remind them daily not to put the spices on. I would also get mad when they didn\u2019t wash my clothes on time, or when they would iron my clothes poorly. When they didn\u2019t laysol my bedroom I would also get very mad. It would also frustrate me when they came to pick me up unpunctually. When I went to the Pacuare fieldtrip in 9th grade, I changed my point of view over many things. When I realized I was the one that had to cook, and I didn\u2019t know anything about cooking and it was the worst thing that I had ever done, I would have rather the food had all the spices I didn\u2019t like and that somebody else would cook it for me, rather than me doing all the work. Also, when I was the one that had to clean all my dirty clothes, and my hands were very tired I would have rather wait for the clothes than having it to clean myself. Also, with so many things I had to take care of, even though I rushed to not getting late, and I got late I felt terrible for making the rest of the group wait for me. So I became more considerate for when people were late for picking me up. I definitely didn\u2019t appreciate many things I had on my daily life, and when I didn\u2019t have the things I realized of what I was missing of.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"35655230","dateCreated":"1299780440","smartDate":"Mar 10, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"meladovelado","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/meladovelado","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/pic\/1317260331\/meladovelado-lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/35655230"},"dateDigested":1531974100,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Melanie Velado Response","description":"As we look at the world around and see so many lives wasted, we begin to wonder\u2026are we truly living and enjoying our lives or are we just cruising through it? Unfortunately the man-made invention of time has become our possessor\u2026our ruler. The time has become our center, our core, and everything happens around it. However, God has given us the gift to make decisions and decide if time will be our controller, or only a guide. Unfortunately when I was a small girl my life revolved around time, my life was a schedule. I would get up at 6 AM, put my clothes on and finish at 6:10 AM, finish breakfast at 6:20 AM, brush my teeth until 6:25 AM, comb my hair until 6:30 AM, get my backpack ready until 6:40 AM, finish packing my lunch box at 6:50, and wait for the bus that would pick me up at 6:55. This was my schedule and my daily routine during the morning, and I also had one for the afternoon. Since I was a midget, time became my mom, I would have to consult time in order to make my decisions and check if it would interfere with my schedule. I got tired and sick of the same monotonous routine. Now that I\u2019m older, I decided to still be organized but actually enjoy my life. Punctuality is definitely a virtue, but not a lifestyle. Now I live my life to its maximum, living through different experiences that make me happy and help me grow, instead of living stressed along the clock.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"35653526","dateCreated":"1299779603","smartDate":"Mar 10, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"joseph86","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/joseph86","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/35653526"},"dateDigested":1531974100,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"wiki 16","description":"
\nYou never know what you have until it is gone. I can tell you this because of experience. Little things that one is used to having like a roof or even a bed stand out when taken out of your hands.
\nI have had experiences when these things have been taking out of my life for a certain time. Once I went to help an organization to build homes for the homeless. I went there for only four days and many things changed when I got back home. Before we went there to help they lived under a trash bag held up by four sticks. We were there for four days and in those four days we were slept and lived in a very similar way to those people. Then when I got back home from the trip the first thing I noticed when I steeped thought the door was the roof. Something that before I barely saw became a magical thing that I was so lucky to have. I climbed the stairs thinking about haw fortunate I was to even have a set of stairs. I saw my bathrooms thinking about how clean they were and how I could take a shower everyday with hot water. Once I came into my bedroom I realized such a simple thing made me more comfortable, while others did not have such things. I couldn\u2019t believe that I had food three times a day, food that was kept in a refrigerator,a thing that I pass every day and that I never realized how important it was.
\n Having things taken out of your life do change the way you see things. I went to a trip were I lived out of my comfort zone and saw how other people live and when I came back I started to see things differently.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"35652204","dateCreated":"1299778955","smartDate":"Mar 10, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"SolSpier","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/SolSpier","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/35652204"},"dateDigested":1531974100,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Benjamin Franklin DID NOT invent electricity","description":""You never know what you have until it's gone." This quote is a reality to a large amount of people. People often take for granted the things they have always had. We spend so much time complaining about everything that we don't have, that we forget to appreciate what we do have. We take for granted the components of our daily lives. From the simplest things like drinking water, all the way to a mother, a home. People rarely appreciate things that they have never lost. Many times I have not realized what I have had until I lose it. I was born and lived almost 10 years in Peninsula de Osa. I lived in a secluded paradise. Right between the jungle and the beach, it was my kingdom. I never realized how lucky I was to live in such a beautiful place, until I lost it. After my parents got a divorce I moved away. Now, after I have lost it, I realize just how lucky I was, and I try to take advantage of every opportunity I have to go back. This quote is not only true with big life altering events, but also day to day changes. Yesterday, all of Escazu had to go about their daily routines without electricity. Although we did not lose electricity forever, many of us realized just how much electricity facilitates our daily lives. Without it, we cannot cook, use internet, watch t.v., take hot showers, we can't even see in the dark. Yesterday, many of us appreciated Alessandro Volta a little more. Unfortunately, it takes a loss for us to appreciate what we have.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"35615364","dateCreated":"1299723870","smartDate":"Mar 9, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"pjoaristi321","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/pjoaristi321","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/35615364"},"dateDigested":1531974101,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Paulina Joaristi","description":"It is often said that the difference between an adult and a child is the price of the toys with which they play. Let\u2019s say for argument sake that you are the son of an Arabian Emir. When you are young you start with a toy car, which you push around on the marbled floors of the palace. When you are a little bit older you get a fancy electric powered remote control car, which you race around the dunes of the desert surrounding your palace. Then you think; \u201cwouldn\u2019t it be fun to have a dune buggy to ride in the desert?\u201d So they give you a buggy to draw figure tracks on the sand. Then, when you are older yet, and your father is the emir, so laws don\u2019t apply to you, you decide its time to own a sports car to drive around the streets of your kingdom, never mind that you are too young to have a driver\u2019s license. By the time you turn 18 driving around the kingdom is no longer fun so you ask your father to register you in a race driving school, and before you notice, you are racing around Le Mans in France at 200 miles an hour in your sport prototype car. Finally, your dream has always been to drive a formula one car. The only way new drivers enter the sport is by bringing to the team some kind of sponsorship. Again this does not present a problem because there is nothing more that your father, the emir, would like than to have a formula one car racing around the circuit of Monte Carlo with a car that gloriously displays on it\u2019s side; \u201cKingdom of Dharlain\u201d. Thus, we have come full circle, starting with what was a simple push car toy and developing into a formula one-race car driven by a grown man who is still a child still at heart.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"35585170","dateCreated":"1299700120","smartDate":"Mar 9, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"negrasolano","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/negrasolano","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/pic\/1222961550\/negrasolano-lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/35585170"},"dateDigested":1531974101,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"nicole solano- you don't know what you've got till it's gone","description":"People never see what they are taking for granted or what they had until they lost it.It is crazy to think that in the blink of an eye you can loose something or someone you had.People are always regretting not taking advantage of what they had.You don\u2019t know what you\u2019ve got till it\u2019s gone.

\nYou don't know what you've got till it's gone. This might seem a clich\u00e9 but until once experiences it, it becomes a reality. Things in life are taken for granted since they have always been a component of one\u2019s existence. In my dad\u2019s case he lost his father at a young age, he never imagined such thing could ever happen to him, since us as individual humans think we are exempt to tragedy. It all took place a day when my dad had gone to his sheep farm with his father his uncle and cousins. Going to the farm was a family trip that occurred very often. My grandma always stayed home since she didn\u2019t like that kind environment. One night my grandfather needed to go get something to the city, he went with my dad\u2019s uncle and two of his kids. My dad stayed at the farm with his older cousin. That was the night were my dad was left without a father, without a model to follow, without a friend. A sheep got in the way of their car; the car flipped and fell into a creek with enough water to drown them. Rodolfo, my dad\u2019s uncle was the only one to survive, he got out of the car very hurt and could only hear his family screaming for help while drowning but nothing could be done it was too late. From that moment my dad was a different person one who needed his father but lost him unjustly. It hurts me to know the rough time my dad had to go through, but I admire him for getting himself together and today be a successful man, with a united strong family. Thinking about this misfortune makes me think how different things would be if I had a grandfather, one who I could tease and love, one who could spoil me. Even harder is imagining how my dad feels, since those scars can never cure.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]}],"more":false},"comments":[]},"http":{"code":200,"status":"OK"},"redirectUrl":null,"javascript":null,"notices":{"warning":[],"error":[],"info":[],"success":[]}}
