Model paragraph:

Every morning when I leave home, I pass by one of my most valued

possessions, a beautiful acoustic guitar. It was given to me more than 20 years
ago and has hung on the wall of every apartment I have ever lived in. I received
it from a friend who lives in Cali. I look up to him because he has always known
how to make the best out of any bad situation. When he decided to give it to me
I felt privileged because I was told his dad had given it to
him.

The photograph

I have in a drawer the only photo of when I was a child. I keep it preciously
because it is one of the few memories and printed images of my childhood since
it was a very humble childhood, my parents did not have much money to buy a
camera that was a luxury at that time, so they could not buy cameras to be able
to take photos of us.

One day my mother enlisted all my brothers and me for a special outing, since
my father had gotten a better job so we went out to eat at a beautiful restaurant,
the food was spectacular, I was very full, but I didn't eat gluttony, I ate with the
greatest of tastes and since I was so small my stomach couldn't handle that
much. After that we went out to a nearby park and we played a good time, the
afternoon was very beautiful, the day was very sunny, it was a Saturday.

After having enjoyed the park for a long time, we passed near a place where
they took photos and my mother decided to join us and my father paid for them
to take a picture of each of my brothers separately, one of my mothers, one to
him, one as a couple and finally, a family photo. All the photos were very
beautiful.
Almost all the photos were lost over the years, I don't really know what will have
happened to all of them, but I still have mine, it is somewhat old so I will take a
duplicate so that it does not break because I do not want to lose it or forget who
I was and how I went.

On some occasions they asked me if I had more photos, to which I replied that it
was the only one and that it was very special and I always end up telling them
the same story. That is the only photo I have of my childhood and it makes me
remember beautiful things from the past and although I did not have many
comforts, I never lacked love, shelter and food and thank God I did not suffer
from any need or ostentation that is why that photo is a nice memory that I keep
with a lot of affection.
Currently I have my camera, computer and my cell phone and I can take all the
photos I want, that is the only thing that all the beings of this world will take with
us, the memories that more than captured in a photo or image, will remain
engraved in our memories
