http://http://www.lifehack.org/450488/50-small-acts-that-make-your-partner-feel-loved-in-a-relationship

I feel loved when:

1. My father calls me on the phone just to say hi

2. My mum drops by to my house before she goes to work.

3. My husband cooks when I'm sick and tired after teaching hours on weekends.

4. My son offers to run errands without being asked

5. My Whats app friends comment my status updates and laugh at my video jokes

Well that's all about me. What about you ladies and gentlemen? How do

Writing

It is wrong to think that one can write English by mastering a few rules of grammar. Rules of grammar do count, but they are not the whole. Thus, it's possible that one may write English which may be grammatically correct but may not be good English. Perspicuity or lucidity is the first requisite of a good style.

Most learners labour under the misunderstanding that the only English worth writing is the English overloaded with difficult words and phrases. They prefer long and high-sounding words

paradoxes

The people were trying to get their tickets at the train station. Some were standing in queues and others were keeping an eye on the suitcases and the rest of the luggage. Tom boarded the train without any tickets, and he sat near an old lady. The lady looked at him approvingly and admiringly. She thought of changing her seat and moving nearer to him, but her foot was entangled in the strap of her suitcase. Then, she was absent for a while and came back to sit next to him. He did not pay any att

A friend of mine once told me that when he was a kid he always wanted to do the washing-up after a meal, his mum would always stop him and told him that he wasn’t supposed to do that and just let their maid do the work.

His mum is running a successful chemical factory in China now. Her mum’s motive was to give him a lesson of self-esteem and let him know his self-worth with no intention of degrading the job of a maid.

I just thought of this story lately.  I have seen people who suffer from low se

A 21 Milestones

Last Saturday, 17th September 2016, after more than 16 events since I started running in 2016, I run for 21km (13 miles). It was a momentous decision for me to enter the half marathon event. But I was lucky that I have a group of friends that keeps on pushing and supporting each other.

I still remember when the first time I entered my first run, it was only for 3 km fun run. I thought it was hard, but at the same time when I finished it, the feeling of accomplishment was really awesome.

Then I sta

One afternoon, he confirmed to meet me in the nearest park of our High school premises. I can't help it, my heart is pounding over and over again. When the class finally calls dismissal, should I say that I immediately packed my things just to see him? Okay, for the sake of truth, yes I am. I remembered how I started to have this feeling for him, that was two years ago.

Another year for us, new classmates, new room, and new environment. I was lucky enough to belong to what they called "cream of

To chase..

What is life..! I think it is alternate word for " to chase ".To chase happiness, a sober job, wishes, aims and infinite list. If our one wish granted, we make 100 more. If we get to our aim, we set a new one. Life goes on till death. This is life.The problem here is some time we lost ourselves so badly we forget about moral value and ethics. No matter on what price, we are committed to get what we want. Humanity, love, sympathy, tears, emotion, feelings all will vanish from our lives as it was

Tryst – Rendezvous of Lovers:

(Today in ‘Guess My Word’  the honorable Lady Noor put before us a word "Tryst" which motivated me to reproduce here below an extract from one of my large stories, which has not been posted here on EC.  I hope you will enjoy reading it.)

 

Tryst – Rendezvous of Lovers:

Six years passed since she last phoned me. I could never get her removed from my memories. She was right when she said that she would always occupy my memories.

That was a very gloomy day or simply I was feeling it that way when my ph

Travelling

TRAVELLING

Travelling is a part of education as well as experience.  It may be considered otherwise by some, to whom visiting ancient churches, Monasteries, castle and fortifications, antiques and ruins, libraries and above all the places of natural beauties is sheer wastage of time and money for in their view this pleasure, education and experience can be achieved by reading books and watching movies/documentaries  of these places.  But they seem unaware that the touch of actuality, living and b

Live to work or work to live

Long time ago, my father told me a story, in those days I didn't pay too much attention to it but many years later I came across again with the same story, however this time the moral for me has changed.Maybe you've heard of it, it's the fisherman's story and its moral can differ depending on the reader ideas. You can share yours in your replies if you wish. I'll be pleased to read them.A successful businessman tourist visited a small coastal village, there he saw a young fisherman arriving to t
