Decision

 

 It's always hard to make a decision.

I am exciting when things I made seem great,

but then, somehow, I happen to feel bad, really bad.

I ask myself, "Why are you feeling so bad?" and I say,

"Because I'm afraid. "

I'm afraid if I made a bad decision. I'm afraid if there were

better chances and I missed them.

I know that in the end it's me who can calm me down

but when I am so afraid, I need someone telling

me 'It's okay. Everything's okay. You are doing a good job.'

So I wrote this post, though it's litt

I'M I GUILTY

 

I tried to conceal under the darkness,

He tried to unveil the darkness,

In dim light I saw his face glow,

In deep anguish I heard his voice low.

 

His image was reflected by the light,

I was ripped apart by the fright,

His whispers wedged my throat,

His gawk smacked my heart.

 

He extended his hand for capturing me,

I prayed The Almighty for protecting me,

My soul quivered with 'his' brightness

I stretched my hand but bled with sharp edge

I regained my inner strength and stabbed him to death.

I’m a GIRL, I wa

.Rmadan part 3

Praise be to Allah, the lord of the worlds and blessing and peace be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon his family and companions.

((Fast, you will be healthy)). Fasting is not intended to be primarily a medical system to the person's diseases; nevertheless, it achieves that thing. Its main objective, as we mentioned before, is to attain piety and be conscious of Allah by obeying his commands and shunning his prohibitions. There are many beneficial means for the soul and the body as well.

Let me tell you all I have completed one whole year on EC.

 Last year, when I had less work in office  and my boss was travelling most of the time. I was pondering what to do now thoughts came in mind I decided let’s do some English.

 I searched many websites I made an account there, but I found them less attractive and less resourceful. One day on searching I got Englishclub.com I made an account here.

 As if I got a ticket to an English Virtual World.

 I was less aware about how it works, I didn’t

Dear Friends,

I know you all are quite familiar with this topic, so I don’t want to write a long story on this but a few things which I have observed in my everyday life.

Extremes meet.... in one person?

I met this woman in a summer camp. She was about thirty-five, blue-eyed with thin features of her rather pretty face. She wore her fair hair short not because it became her but because she didn't care for hairstyles. She didn't even trouble to dye the greying strands of hair. Her usual outfit was a colourless T-shirt and old-fashioned baggy jeans.

Her name was Rita if my memory serves me right. She never got married and , indeed, she was so shy it was imposible to imagine her ruling the household

MY BED

M Y   B E D

Bed is my dreamy kingdom, only there I feel like the queen,

all my soft pillows, dreams about the places I have never been.

It gives me comfort when I feel so exhausted, almost dead,

me, myself hidden under the white blanket, the whole night ahead.

I have already given to my pillows more than one tear,

my bitter disappointments, scary nightmares, weird fear.

Bed is the witness of my many thoughts running through my mind,

it can´t talk, it keeps my secrets, remembers dreams I am unable to fin

A Tale

I read this tale and it amazed me. It is a German tale but I read it in Russian and translated into English so as to share with you.

Mr. Korbes

The rooster and the hen got into the carriages and went on their way. Soon they met a cat. The cat asked them ”Where are you going?”  The rooster answered “ We are hurry
