The growth that has made Playa del Carmen since the late 60s in tourism is now easily discernible today is a cosmopolitan port where its inhabitants are divided between those from the region and a large portion of immigrants from different countries around the globe.

This museum shows us the habits and customs that the people engaged in the funeral ceremonies during the last third of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth. I wanted to move to Barcelona and make a report of what was hidden there. Ask to speak to, Josep Diaz, and became passionate about my friendly guide and protector history of this unusual museum. Certainly there are other museums of its kind in the United States, Vienna, France and Italy, however the Barcelona is the most complete, original and which has more material. All the objects presented here are authentic, including the original cobblestone streets of Barcelona and the two gas lanterns (although today look with electric light) According tells me Josep Torras Christopher, manager of Funeral Services of Barcelona, made a effort to ensure that these floats are not destroyed, to condition and preserve the beauty with which they look now. We also found other objects such as belts and harnesses that served as an ornament for draft horses. The tour starts with the coaches “white” reserved to transport the deceased children and maidens. This is when Josep emphasis on showing the two types of shields that have all the floats. On one side is the “House of Charity” entity in charge of transferring the less fortunate and secondly, the shield of “la Diputacion de Barcelona” for floats larger and tended to be contracted by the bourgeoisie In the central part of the museum stands imposing the “Great Dumond” of French eighteenth century.

In today’s world museums are of great importance since they can be found in large and important elements that have been instrumental in the development of man, not only belong to the past history can also find new elements in the lives of people, so the knowledge that can provide good museums, places such institutions as one of the most important cultural development encunado humanity. Speaking of museums was being referred to an institution that is usually public in nature, but there are also private, must take into account that in any case must be a nonprofit institution, as its vision must be designed to serve the society and allow its development. The museums among its many activities, they acquire different kinds elements, which are preserved in museums for study or exposed, with the idea of providing easy access to these items by individuals, either with the idea of providing knowledge , to permit education or simply for those art lovers who wish to enjoy the aesthetic value of the works are found in museums.

Christmas, a time of love and peace in the world, thousands of carols speak of this, but how different is when a home no financial means to make this event something special. yes perhaps need the money? … and No is true that the most important thing is to be with our loved ones and share with your family? … And why it has become so important money this holiday season? … sometimes the lack of money leads discussions that alter the whole family, making the celebration a funeral ?…. It is true that everything costs money and often it is not. And it is also true that the phrase The important thing is to be filled never fully meet our expectations and fewer still have children in this regard. Unfortunately we are bombarded daily with a horrible and almost consumerism we are forced to act as we say, buying many things, borrowing to meet the business needs and acquiring objects of great economic value with the intention of feeling, for some moment, happy.

Happiness little hard, as soon as we begin to pay for it and disappears instantly, leaving us to change a tremendous guilt. My invitation is, quite simply, to find the magic of the holidays without incurring the cost that we can not assume. Let us fill our home details and traditions that are filling our souls of true happiness, do not allow us consumerism snatch the magic that lives within us. Many must think that it is impossible or Utopian, but I’m going to give them a couple of ideas that can make this event something special: Made with Christmas ornaments kids, using elements we have at home or we can get low-cost we decorate our home with the family, let us permission to do crazy things and take every idea seriously suggesting children. Let’s see how we in the cupboard and think of different menus for Christmas Eve, however simple it may be, invent the way it is different, it can be a plate of rice with fried eggs, but rice can serve as Christmas tree and decorate it with some vegetables simulating a real, for example, that children choose and participate in the food preparation and decoration of the table. Make up a family tradition, something that is a kind of secret between you each year. As for gifts, can be made between you too, or achieved at low cost, they are beautiful packaging, with some meaning for everyone, children to try to have some surprises, be creative, resourceful, for even the most humble gift may be the best in the world, especially if children are concerned, for example, a personal experience, the first Christmas my daughter brought him many gifts, including a giant teddy bear, a tricycle, colorful, various toys and clothing, within these, a bathing suit, which came in the hook, well, my daughter played all week long, happy, regardless of anything else, with the coat hanger. In short, do not worry if there is no economic means to do whatever they wanted for the holidays, children will enjoy more if they seem happy and share in the celebration and its preparation, avoid arguments and make the magic flow from interiors and flood your home with her. I wish you a wonderful Christmas and a very prosperous new year. Gabriela Your Guide for Parents.

Christmas is a celebration of life, the life of our planet: One of the most beautiful Christian traditions is the making of the manger scene (…) The population growth, environmental requirements and increasing the number of stalls that are made endanger the natural balance of the soil, as these musguitos play an irreplaceable role in ecosystems: they protect bare soil, cover the rocks, provide optimal conditions of moisture and nutrients to germinate and grow other seeds, prevent erosion and hold moisture. In the past, the use of moss in births could be insignificant and greater environmental impact. Today there are other connotations. Imagination and creativity are a constant challenge to find alternative elements in the development of our beautiful cribs. – Published on the website of the Archdiocese of Merida on Saturday September 17, 2005.

This site uses only fragments; emphasis added. Alternatives to make a manger scene may be used other materials such as sand, pebbles, sawdust, sawdust, paint, paper, cardboard, cloth, jute and all materials that indicate your imagination. You can take the opportunity to live with your children, making a manger scene with recycled material. Remember, all plants, from the smallest to the largest are important for the balance of life of our forests and cloud moors. When we destroy the moss not only destroy them but we’re destroying an ecosystem. Protects the moss, hay (wooden beard) and tree ferns (fern trunks). Do not remove them. Do not sell. Do not buy.

Ebenezer treated their employees horribly. Constantly harassed, they fought and yelled and gave them free only reluctantly Christmas. It took three visits from the ghosts to Ebenezer finally realized that there was more to life than making money. Undoubtedly Ebenezer company provided a good service. His ethics, however, was somewhat doubtful. The way he treated his customers and employees and the community showed that he alone was the one who benefited. The only way you learned was by a "great shock". The story presented in A Christmas Carol has its uses in ethical terms.

You can have it all, money, a big house, suddenly a boat, but if you do not have the basic values held about good ethical practices, you will end in one way or another as Ebenezer. You may not be visited by ghosts, but his conscience will suffer and their ability to achieve peace of mind. One should maintain good practice ethical because they get something in return. You should do it because that is what should be done. You do it because they realize more fun than a business it really is just a small part of our lives.

In 500 years nobody will remember the work we did, and if they do not see it even remotely similar to what they are doing. We maintain good ethical practices because it is our duty. We must comply with good practices and principles not by what we receive in return, although confidence is a great benefit, but because it is important for our peace of mind.
