TOURIST AREAS OF SPAIN

It is well known that the tourism is one of the most important sources of income for our country.

First of all, Spain spend a lot of years in the firsts positions of the international tourism. Throughout of these years it has suffered a lot of changes both in the way of travel and in the accommodations.

However in the big cities is considering a big problem, due to the large influx of tourism (for example in Barcelona or in Madrid) and the tourist flats are having a lot of relevance. This come with the difficulty of living the tourism with the people that live all the year in that place, because a lot of times the type of tourism isn't the most suitable and his interests aren't the same as the people that live or work.

For that reason, the authorities are doing laws harder or more restrictive to regularise this type of tourism and then has it more controlled.

Do men and women view love differently?

It is well to known that men and women we can seem very different, but at the end surely those differences aren't so many.

First of all, generally both men and women we have the necessity to live in couple with anyone that loves us, values us and respects us. 

Secondly, some of the differences could be, in the thing we think as "normal" relationships and no perverse (controlling, submissive, etc.), that the woman can look for a little more of protection, although each time less, and the man can assume more the role of protector.
In the issue related to the children normally the women have it as a priority and men postpone it more, also for biological matters, and they give more priority to the development in the theme of labour.
In the education of the children also there are differences between men and women, because the mother will use more her protector part and educate him more in values as the affection, the family, etc. and the father more in issues of physical strength, perseverance,...

As a result now, as I said before, all of these differences are each time less, at least at the western society, because these roles be exchanged with facility due to determinate labour or family circumstances.

MY SOULMATE TODAY

Both to love and to be loved you have to have a certain degree of maturity, know how you are, what you want,... although to arrive at that surely we have to overcome stages of insecurity, of platonic relationships, etc.



Actually to find your soulmate it depends both the other person and ourself, because at the end is a state of adaptation, of negotiation for both without sacrificing the principles more basics of each one.

My soulmate today would be a girl that I like both physically and character, athletic, that doesn't smoke, constant and that respects me as a person (enthusiasms, hobbies, way of being,...).

Why do we love? A philosophical inquiry

http://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-do-we-love-a-philosophical-inquiry-skye-c-cleary

1.Discuss. Why do we love? It’s heart-breaking and complicated most of the times yet do we need it at all?

I think the human being has the intrinsic necessity to love and to be loved or accept and to be accepted because otherwise we would be anti-social people.

The feeling really durable and important in time is to love, because the love in itself is a temporal state that you live a few times in the life and not always is objective but rather platonic.

Many times can be an unrequited love and then if the person isn't very mature or balanced you can suffer a lot. But as I say, the people more prone to suffer are those they idealize it or they have a pathological dependence on to love and to be loved.
