"To be or not to be?" This question has never been answered and will never be. It is for us to decide. So, I have decided not to be a bright shining star on EC. It is time for me to collapse and to give birth to super novas. In fact, it is unnecessary as they already shine and their light is so bright! I can only enjoy seeing the results of my annihilation. 

Mary, it is your fault. I told you "don't trouble trouble until trouble troubles you". My having been elected as a Star (I have always been!

Home Early

A blonde guy gets home early from work and hears strange noises coming from the bedroom. He rushes upstairs to find his wife naked on the bed, sweating and panting. "What's up?" he says. "I'm having a heart attack," cries the woman.
He rushes downstairs to grab the phone, but just as he's dialing, his 4-year-old son comes up and says "Daddy! Daddy! Uncle Ted's hiding in your closet and he's got no clothes on!" The guy slams the phone down and storms upstairs into the bedroom, past his s

There was a man… a silent man,

A humble man who lived alone

And seems like god had his plan

On humble man, for he was born.

The man wasn't happy nor was he sad

The man just lived and all he had

Was just one life one hope one way,

Just one bright and happy day…

That day he met a woman,

A pretty, sweet cute woman.

She loved the life and she was sure

That life is so sweet and pure.

Thus they met and fall in love

Thus they lived, enjoyed the life.

They worked, and walked and laughed and cried

They hoped and nev

Dear friends, do you know  one of our best members Seeker has already left this site? I came to know about it yesterday. He just wrote me two lines when I was not active here and later I found he deleted his account. What a loss!

He was enthusiastic about learning, he was sober, open minded and moreover was a very good friend of us. I never found him uttering any bad words and in all sense he was a very good member of this site.

Then why  has he left? So far I can understand he was not happy with

The distance from the earth to the sun is a result of deliberate arrangement

Xuefeng

August 15, 2002
The distance from the earth to the sun is 149 million kilometers, which is the ideal distance for the earth to absorb the solar energy. If it is too far, the earth will be cold and bleak place; if it is too close, the earth will be a flaming globe.

You must have had the experience of warming yourself by fire in the cold winter days. Your distance from the fire will be decided by the state of the fir

To me, Happiness is an island. An island with roads, roads where you can drive yet where you will not be "charged" with a crime. Where you can go to talk to people. It's an "island" civil enough to have roads, yet not "civil" enough to have "hatred". It's an "island" where people are "nice" yet say their opinion without hatred, just fact. We all, as humans, do not agree, but we do not have to be Hateful. It's an island where there are different roads, but all lead to the same place, "where we wa

As I am not any awesome joke teller, I decided to come up with my own stories. I mean real stories, life has written. Like you all know 1st April is Fool's Day and let me confess here that once I was perfectly fooled by my husband. On that day I had a call. Somebody had called me and later it turned out to be an officer from Health Insurance Institute telling me that I had some debts there, which must be paid. When I was told something so serious, I immediately forgot about some silly Fool's Day

...and I keep on asking you...
"What will remain one day, when we leave this world?"
...then I can hear myself silently answering...
Maybe two soulmates dancing together in the universe...
or no more you, no more me, two burried identities lost forever...

... and I still keep on asking you...
"What exactly will remain when we both leave this world?"
... then I can hear myself whispering...
Suddenly all these tangible things we considered not that important will start making sense...
In fact

1. conditions of high frequency transformer use

The terms of use include two aspects: reliability and electromagnetic compatibility. Previously only pay attention to reliability, and now due to increased awareness of environmental protection, we must pay attention to electromagnetic compatibility.

Reliability refers to the specific conditions of use, high-frequency power transformer can work until the normal life so far. General use conditions for high frequency power transformer is the grea

     With the sun as its center, the solar system consists of the sun, Mercury, Venus, earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, comets, the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, meteoroid, interstellar matter, the earth’s satellite moon, and other asteroids.

Relationships, especially of the monogamous, “I love you forever” kind, are facing testing times. For the younger generation, the idea of a “forever”, is becoming steadily disenchanting because there is always someone hotter, nicer, more fun and interesting, and better suited for their evolving needs and are in sync with their personal/professional choices out there. Changing needs and changing times seem to be permanently changing the nature of relationships. Social media and digital communicat

To begin with I should say I am not as good at making fun like as  others. Sometimes I can't even make out some funny stories. But, despite the fact today I want to give it a try! So, let's see.

Conversation between a teacher and a student:

Teacher: Dear student, ' What is a museum'?

Student: ' Sir, a museum is a place where musicians play their great music'.

Teacher: ' Really, so did you see musicians were playing music over there as I know you went there two days ago'?

Student: ' Sir, I did not see

So long as you get a grip on yourself, you have time for everything. If not, life slips away in a jiffy, leaving you panicky and disillusioned…

If time is limited and beyond our control, the only thing to do is to catch it by the forelock and make the most of it! Else, we will be left attempting to grab its vanishing tail in desperation… too little, too late!

In the insidious connection humans share with time, as we discussed last week in this space, planning and balance is the key to a healthy, r

Today I feel like I want to be useful for the society, for EC, for the whole world. So, guys… as my field is law, I would like to give you some information, not to get into troubles, alright? Firstly, let me say that the main rule you should follow, when entering the law world, is to be careless CAREFUL and ATTENTIVE. You never know, who wants to use you, bully you, who is not trustworthy and who might cause that sooner or later you would go belly-up. However, people make the same mistakes over

On a leisure day, I was cleaning the drawer of my writing-table which had got overflowed with the papers and different articles which had been dropping in it for last many years.

I was taking the papers and other articles out from the drawer and putting separately. I was taking a cursory look at each paper to assess whether it is important or not.

When it was almost half empty I thrust my hand into the back of the drawing to look for any other important paper. When I drag my hand out there was a

Yes, I mean you shouldn't use any other language here. 

I know your first language is not English, and your first language or mother tongue may even be considered to be the most beautiful language in the world. Besides, you may be so good at it or you may think your language is so effective in expressing a complex or subtle thought. Nevertheless, don't be tempted to use it here on MyEC - since MyEC is a website created for you to learn or teach English.

If you can't write something in English, the

As a child I used to be a little bit crazy, some people who know me would say I am crazy till now but the childhood craziness was a different one. It was something innocent, a craziness that couldn’t hurt but bring fun! My craziness was about creating stories, very spooky stories and sometimes even I myself believed in them. Whenever I saw people watching out of the window, I would imagine they were ghosts, souls of dead people who once lived in these houses and were killed or commited a suicide
