AURORA

   There are three people that i admire the most , today i am going to be talking about one of them.

 My mother Aurora Camacho Castañeda. she has being and always will be my role model ,  every moral belief and values that i believe and that i know were teached by her. When she was growing up she didn’t had the best life , but she didn’t had the worst one either , my grandfather was a navigator and because of that he was not at home all the time , grandmother was a stay at home wife so she did not really work . Because of that my mother and my aunt took the role of parents at home and help my uncles and aunts have a better life. She and my aunt began working at a very young age to cover all the necessities at home , the help with the school for the younger ones and with the food in the house that was needed because the money and food that my grandfather left was over. My mum studied in the university Simon Bolivar and then she got a master and doctorate in the area of social working and treating families internal problems , after and during the process of getting the master and doctorate she was working in El Seguro Social she was the one in charge of the social work departament , when she finished working in El Seguro Social she created her own company called Aurora Camcho , she had her first and only child in January 13 2001 and since then she has grown to be the best mother that you could ask for , she is a strong and idependent woman that leard hlw to make a life , out of low resources. Now she is living in Barranquilla , Colombia with her daugther and her brother , and giving her daughter this world and the other one. That’s why i am proud to say that Aurora Camacho is my mother and the person i admire the most.

MYTH : PROTECTOR OF THE OCEAN

The queen of the ocean Ariel was really worried because what was happening to the ocean , she notice that all the animals of the ocean were being killed and taken away by a mysterious force. She did not know what to do , she did not know what she was facing. One day an informant of the Queen told ger that it was a major human force that could not be killed by the ocean species. so the Queen created a magic horse that is designed to protect the ocean at night and killied any human foce that tired to harm it.

Since that day now anytime that the ocean is being harmed by any mem forces or human force the magic horse appeares and killed them by slicing their throat open.Now all the creatures of the ocean are back and the ocean is protected.

LEGEND : COLD OAK

Many years ago the little city of Cold Oak in the north of Colombia was created on top of a cementery but no one really knew , so when people stared to live in there they thought it was a beautiful, colorful , really nice city , and they were all really happy in where they lived , that was until one night the husband of a loving family started noticing really wierd thing around their daughter, it was like she was always talking to someone else at nights. One day the father and the mother stayed up late to se what was really happening and they say their dauther talking to a dark figure with yellow eyes. They truly did not know what to do. The family found out that the were not  the only ones that have gone through that ,so they called someone specialized in wierd creatures and demonic actions. The people they called found traces of sulfur and they told all the familien in Cold Oak that not only demons but spirits were around. From that day Cold Oak became the most hunted place in the north of Colombia.

COMPARE AND CONTRAST OF " THE WOLRD ON THE TURTLE'S BACK" AND "GENESIS 1"



COMPARE

• In Genesis 1 we have no world at the beginning , In the world on the turtle's neck we already have the sky world and ocean world.
• In Genesis 1 we have just one god , In the world on the turtle's back we have different gods.
• In the World on the turtle's map they celebrated evil by doing ritual to the bad brother.
• In the Genesis 1 the world was created by god and lasted seven days to be made , In the World on the turtle's back the world was created by the ancestors.

SIMILARITIES 

• The women were very alike in both stories they were the one's who committed the crime.
• Both stories have a sacred tree.
• Both stories had the brother that were jealous of one another.
• Both stories have the good brother and the bad brother.
• In both stories good and evil is needed to have a balance.

CONTRAST 

• The Genesis 1 it's a pice of information taken from the bible , the World on the tutle's back it's a myth.
• In the Genesis God made us humans in a different way ,  in the World on the tutle's back the good brother made us out of clay.
• In the Genesis 1 animals are dependent of humans , in the World on the turtle's back animals already existed and they were totally independent.
