The following letter was written by Richard Dawkins and it´s addressed to his daughter Juliet, who was ten years old at the time.

Dear Juliet,

Now that you are ten, I want to write to you about something that is important to me. Have you ever wondered how we know the things that we know? How do we know, for instance, that the stars, which look like tiny pinpricks in the sky, are really huge balls of fire like the Sun and very far away? And how do we know that the Earth is a smaller ball whirling r

We all know that patience is a virtue. Did you also know, however, that it’s very good for you? For example, it leads to better mental health, better relationships with friends and neighbors and helps us achieve our goals – to name but a few. In other words, though it might be a quiet virtue, that doesn’t mean it’s a bad one.

Of course, nowadays patience is in short supply. Many people are rushing from A to B while yelling on their phones at person C. That means we could use a little bit of help

When I joyned here as a member, I was thinking that I found a community where people have the opportunity to exchange experiences, to speak about different habits and traditions. About everything what makes us to understand each other better. Also to speak about religions and politics without any prejudices would be possible ... at least I thought so because I myself I am able to do that with respect and acceptance. My conviction is ... even if we don't agree or don't understand others in term

There are many ways to say goodbye: bye, see you, catch you later, so long, have a nice day, take care, cheers, and so on. 

It can be so tricky, however, for a doctor, especially for a Chinese doctor,  to say goodbye to a patient. As you know, 'goodbye' in Chinese just sounds like 'see you or see you around'. The thing is nobody really wants to be sick again - in other words, they don't want to see their doctor again, but the doctor and patient may feel like saying something when they are leaving

What's your favorite meal of the day?

Mine's breakfast. Without a question! I just wake up excited to eat some darn breakfast. I mean, just think about all the fun you have while you're making up your mind: Will it be scrambled eggs, something bacon-y, porridge, coffee and a croissant, pancakes, etc. Are you gonna go out and get it, maybe? Hmm. Decisions, decisions.

In one of my previous blogs, Cooking with Nanna, I talked about all kinds of food made by some adorable grandmas from all over the wo

Yummy! This is the first thing comes in mind when you experience this dessert made out of love and effort (literally!), you would thought that I’m just babbling or I’m in the mood to pretend to be poetic when writing this, but no! I’m not saying that you’ll go through a mouth-watering imagination (more than that!) as I walk you through how to prepare and how to eat this (hey, there’s an etiquette when it comes to desserts...kidding), alright, as much as possible I’m trying to prevent excessive i

With the popularization and development of the digital circuits of switching power supply, the electromagnetic waves radiated and leaked by electronic devices not only seriously interfere with the normal operation of other electronic devices, leading to equipment malfunction, transmission errors and control failures, but also threat to human health and safety.

I've decided to write this blog after Mary's "Hallelujah" in Sing a Song group. She posted her discussion dedicated to Leonard Cohen who died last week. I believe that most of you have heard this song. It sounds in "Shrek" animation and has been sung by so many famous singers and arranged by so many composers. The question is why? Some melody influences us so much that we can't forget it. We hear it even sleeping and when we wake up we still going on singing it. We can't get rid of it. It means

My name is Peggy Fuentes and I’m 34. I live in Norway, in Bergen. I am married and have two beautiful kids Lina and Tobish. My mother always tells me that a family is the most important thing in our life. It’s really so. I tried to devote all my time to my husband and children. Unfortunately, I have forgotten to take care of myself. I did all housework. I was always busy with something. When my kids went to school, I realized that I felt lonely and wanted to change something. I was a housewife a

Hello Guys, 

Reference to Robbie's writing challenge, I would like to introduce you very simple and modest two recipes from my cuisine "Syrian Damascusian Cuisine". 

The recipes that I am going to introduce today are regarded as very modest and traditional i.e. you can't find them in restaurants. Only simple families prepare this kinda food in Damascus..

Hi all, 

Most of the turbulence or worries in our mind is triggered from outside, It is not created by our own. 

For example, One of your friend bought a new car today, and you don't have a car. Today I am sure, 90% of peoples mind will be upset. 

See details of this case. You don't have a car for a long time or you never had a car any time. These many days you didn't think about it or you never had a problem. You need a car to show others that you too have a car- that is creating problem. Just ego
