Personal Culture W4 Homework _ Ronald Delgado


This time, I'd like you to talk about my own personal "culture."

It is necessary before talking about personal culture, talking about values. The value is a concept that describes people beliefs, and how people could act in a specific situation. All depend on the personal culture, but before having our own background that could eventually describe our personal culture; we had or inherited values from our family. So I think we are a mirror of our parents our personal culture describes where and who we come from.

Some of these values are moral, doctrinal, ideological, political and religious, they persist in all our life, everything we get cause of learning and reading are a complement of our values.

Some aspects that characterize our personal culture are:

Moral aspects: how do we perceive the behaviors of different people, if we could accept some situations that compared with our own behaves, would be an acceptable, but we have the open-minded enough taking it easy, and be conscious on the same time.

Ideological: We also have to manage all of our thoughts related with politics, economics, and religion. It is very common to meet people who don´t believe in God; we have to get away with that situation despite of our ideological values. It is more important the friendship and relationship that diverging of thoughts.
Sometimes it is very hard to keep a good relationship with foreign people; personal culture is representative between two or more groups. You have to persuade people of keeping away racial differences, and trying to share ideas for solving the main topic or goal you have.

In my case, I try to learn from other people, keeping away racial differences, and getting from them the good ideas or recommendation for making easier all in my life, improving my skills and sometimes discussing relevant topics.
Nothing is enough when you try to learn about people, every person we meet is a new story, a new relationship and a new opportunity to grow myself. I think that is my main interest of learning a new language.

  1. Hi Ronald,

    we'll be dividing into partners and groups this week to check each other's blog posts, so I won't comment much on this one except for one thing: you did a great job explaining where a person's personal culture comes from, but you didn't have too much about your own personal culture. Maybe just include a sentence or two about your personal culture in the "ideological" and "moral" paragraphs, for example. That way, it'll be more specific and related to you, and less generalized.

    Thanks!

  2. I´ll try to give an example about my personal point of view related with moral. Main principles of moral values come from family, papa and mom, brothers and sisters. In our families all together build the structure of the society; that´s what I think the family is the most important in our lives. We are a mirror of our loved people who are around us, and wish we have the strong relationship with.
