La Historia Y El Significado De La Bandera Mexicana
Alex Covarrubias

Uno de los símbolos patrios de México es la bandera, la cual nos impulsa a luchar por la libertad, democracia y la justicia. La bandera de México es una causa de orgullo para los mexicanos y nos mantiene unidos en donde quiera que estemos. Nuestra bandera tricolor representa lo hermoso y poderoso que es ser mexicano.

Al principio del año de 1821, la bandera de México adoptada por Agustín de Iturbide tenía tres rayas inclinadas y tres estrellas.

Algunos meses después, la bandera se modificó de nuevo, pero aún era muy similar a la primera.

En noviembre de 1821, se adoptó la tercera bandera donde las rayas eran verticales y por primera vez apareció el águila en el centro.

El escudo de la bandera simboliza la leyenda que el dios Huitzilopochtli ordeno a un grupo de mexicas de Aztlán que fueran a nuevas tierras. Les dijo que solo fundarían su reino donde estuviera un águila posada sobre un nopal devorando a una serpiente.

La actual bandera, llamada la Cuarta Bandera Nacional ya que existan varias modificaciones, fue adoptada el 16 de septiembre de 1968. Para poder apreciar la bandera tricolor en su totalidad, es importante conocer el significado de los colores y símbolos. Originalmente el verde representaba la libertad y la independencia obtenida por el pueblo mexicano, el blanco representaba la religión y el rojo la unión. Hoy en día, el verde simboliza la esperanza, el blanco la unidad y el rojo la sangre de los héroes nacionales. Al centro de la bandera, se encuentra el Escudo Nacional. Este lleva un águila real posada en un nopal devorando a una serpiente.


Un dato interesante sobre la bandera de México es que en el 2011 obtuvo un Record Guinness al ser la bandera más grande volando. La bandera se encuentra en Piedras Negras, Coahuila y pesa alrededor de 300 kilogramos.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
