Today I'm going to talk about a movie that I saw the last Friday. Since the last year I wanted to watch a movie called "The impossible" and finally I watched it. The impossible is a spanish movie which talks about the experience of a spanish family in the Southeast Asia tsunami in 2004. In the movie the characters was interpreted by not spanish actors .
In the principle of the movie the family was in a hotel at the beach of Thailand when the tsunami arrived. We can see strong images of the high waves and the force of those waves. The waves took everything that was in front of them, including lives. The images afflict and affect you because you know that it really happened. I consider that the movie reflects very well the aid granted by the native people. The beaches were full of tourists and the native people help carried them to safe places and gave them urgent medical care.
I don't go to tell you the final of the movie because you have to watch it, it's worth it. The impossible is an amazing movie that makes you suffer and cry a lot.
Today I'm going to talk about an expert in my career. You know that I'm studying Psychology, so I chose Abraham Maslow.
Maslow was an american psychiatrist and psychologist who did a lot of contributions in the area of psychology. Maslow was one of the founder of the Humanistic Psychology, which was the third force in the american psychology. He said that humans have an innate tendency to develop all their potentialities and abilities, which he called self-actualization. He thought that a human is integrated, therefore if something affect one system of him all systems are going to be affected. Maslow based his theory in the needs of each individual. He made a hierarchy of needs that everyone have to satisfy to the personal development. The humanistic therapy have the objective that each person reach the self-actualization and be an integrated person.
I found out about him in the school when my teacher of philosophy teach us about psychology and I heard about him again in the second semester of my career.
I describe his theory and his contributions with a general focus and few words, I expect that you understand me.
