It Is Easy To Judge

As some of you know I am atheist but the question is: "Does anybody of you know the reason?" I bet, you have no idea. I bet, you think I am arrogant person with own pride, who decided not to accept God in her life. You know, people judge me easily just because of the fact that I am not religious, even though they know nothing about me. They take me - atheist - automatically as a bad person without morals, values and of course they look down on me. Actually, I have never come across such attitude

I am a dreamer

   I know that I am a dreamer. I almost dream on everything. I dream about being rich, being smart, being religious,being great, being beautiful, being famous and being this and being that, so many that I cannot write them here.

Those dreams have made me sick. None of them becomes true yet.

The white said, good to have a lot of dreams, they can be your motivations

The black said, not good to have them, they can make you down

I said, a dreamer and having a dream are different. I called myself a dream

Just a thought!

   

 If you would put in front of a person the brain of different people with different nationality let’s say he would have for instance an American brain placed here, An African brain on the right, a Chinese brain on the left and an Egyptian brain in front.  Now if he would be asked to leave the room and while he is out someone would shuffle those brains around.  When he returns would he be able to tell me which is which?  I bet you he wouldn’t be able to tell me to save his life or his breeches

What motivates people to want to become better writers? Several things!

  1. They are students with a lot of essay and paper assignments and know that their writing skills are not the best.
  2. They are adults who have writing tasks as a part of their job tasks and responsibilities
  3. They are individuals who have goals of becoming authors, either fiction or non-fiction.
  4. They are individuals who want to make money providing copywriting for any number of web-based venues.

Yes, I forgot that I signed up for this site, or perhaps that time I often sign in, in a couple of English learning websites where after signing up, I became not much interested or I could say I'm lack of Enthusiasm about learning English.

Girl said with smile, "I know.. you always come on time."

He gazed at his mobile and turn it on silent mode. "Ok. Tell me, what happened?"

She smelled like vanilla, her voice was sweet. Their eyes met, and he fell in love. Alluring scent of vanilla turned him into a zombie. He was fascinated, but she was cold. Playfully smiling at him, she passed. He knew her name, she had to come back tomorrow. He still remembered the smell of her and returned home. The memory of the smell haunted him and on the computer, the computer exuded the aroma of vanilla, and he fell asleep ...

   His dream was passing, he saw aliens, little men who carried

This game is not intended to embarrass, but rather to identify more with the members through automatic sincere revelation. I hope it does not exceed the red border but remain within the limits of respect. I will choose some members and ask him/her a question. After s/he answered, s/he will choose another member and ask a question. IF no one asked you a question but would like to participate, you may start and ask the member you have chosen ...... like this

I hope that you like it.

Lat night, sitting on the bed, I was thinking about our last two days activities. And, I felt good to remember how wonderful it was while my kid and I had found some shoal of little fish near of our feet! And, how did we try to take them into our hands and laughed after being unable.

Madona

I have currently eight dogs. The oldest, a German shepherd who came here at age 7, was "inherited" from my brother who was moving into an apartment and could not take him. He is now 11 years old. Five mutts who arrived here still young, almost newborns, and therefore were very spoiled. Paloma, a five-month-old puppy, autistic, that only allows me to cherish her after being trapped in a corner (although she likes caresses a lot). And Madonna, the mother of three of the puppies, rescued from a slu
