Do not leave them

In hurricane Katrina people lost their houses, cars, and their u. Government and insurance companies gave them some substitutions but they did not give every thing because there are some things nobody can replace. Pictures are the most important thing for me and my family because they have memories and special moments that we cannot repeat. If there were a natural disaster I would try to get my family`s pictures for these reasons: they are wonderful, my children memories, and important to me.
First, everybody has his own great and nice pictures. That he get them in special moments such as childhood, engagement, marriage, and other celebrations. As a result, when I hear about any natural disaster I will try to put my family pictures in safe place, to protect them. Finally, protecting my pictures will connect me to the past which is something I liked most.
Second, my daughter has special moments in her life, and I toke same pictures for most of them. Therefore, in case of having a natural disaster people have different interests. Each one prefers to protect and save something he or she likes. In same way, when that happens to me I will try to save my family`s pictures, because I want keep my children close to their past to see themselves in different ways. For example, my husband took some pictures of my daughter in the first moment of her life, so it is nice to show her this picture. Finally, my children have the right to know about their life, therefore, I will do that for them.
Third, I have a lot of things that I am interested in. one of the most important things to me is taking picture. Because I have important picture which I took in special moments in my life. When there is news about bad weather or some natural problems I will directly take all my pictures and put them in safe corner.. In addition, there are other great pictures I took in “glamour shot” which is one of the expensive studios back home. Last, my pictures are my favorite and the first thing that I will think about it if something happens.
In conclusion, we should save our pictures and important files in flash memory and CD and keep them in other places. That is the thing I should do because when something happens I will not have time to get my pictures because I will look for my daughter, my husband, and myself. As a result, if I lose my house, car, and other expensive things, I will have my wonderful pictures, my children`s memories, and something important to me that I like most .

Harriet Tubman

"Harriet Tubman ", by Margaret Burroughs in 1990.
In this painting you can see an old women painted in black-white colors. It's look like real because the artist paint this picture with specific details you can see every line on her face! This painting is an example of photorealism, since it's so realistic that I thought it's a photograph, not a painting.
Harriet Tubman was birth in 1819 in slavery period. However, in six years old she started to work in different kind of hard works, like she was work in weaving, in checking muskrat traps, and as a housekeeper and baby-sitter. She had the measles and she was beaten frequently. Harriet married two times. The first marriage was in 1944, when she was 25 years old, she married John Tubman, a free African American. Then she left him for searching of freedom in Pennsylvania (which was a free state). After that Harriet worked in different activities. She work as a nurse with a soldiers in Civil War and active in women's rights. In conclusion, after her death in 1913 she buried in cemetery with military honors.
These events are reminded me for the painting called "John Brown Going to his Hanging" by Horace Pippin. John Brown was in favor of slavery and try to help slaves to get there freedom. Those people were commander since they provide a better life for all.
