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
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
I have read a funny story and I want you to read it, too.
Here is the funny story:
To Absent Brothers
An Irishman walks into a bar in Dublin, orders three pints of Guinness and sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finished all three, he comes back to the bar and orders three more. The bartender says to him, 'You know, a pint goes flat after I draw it; it would taste better if you bought one at a time.' The Irishman replies, 'Well, you see, I have two brother
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
Hail to the STAR MEMBER OF MARCH, Sir DANNY CLARK!!
*applauses*
^_^
We can't really say it has been a very hard-fought election, but all the people who voted for Danny had very clear and strong reasons:
"He’d been so helpful to all members and explain how he corrects the grammar usage, tenses, prepositions, phrasal verbs and tons of useful tips" ~Risty Aven
"I do aprecciate a lot his effort to make our English better, to teach us here for free, invest his time in scolding stupid innocent people lik
As the members expected, she became very nervous and ready to make a fight for the smallest trifles. She stole money from her husband's wallet to buy her dope. Once he woke up and could not find her beside him. This time, his wallet was not there at all. What should he do? He wanted to go to work and all his cards were there. His identity card, ATM card and some important documents there. He could not drive his car. There was no gas. He could not even take a taxi. To wait for her until she comes
We have a German folk song with the title "The thoughts are free". First was this song published as text like a poem ... already in 1780.
It's based on written texts from the early 13th Century but the basic philosophy is already known from ancient times.
The last version of that poem got a melody and became a folk song with the time.
Just some lines from the early text from 1229:
The band can not find anyone,
Which binds my thoughts.
One catches woman and man,
Thoughts nobody can catch.
I publish the t
Two monks were on the road. They came from a very chaste Order, which was strictly forbidden to deal with women. One day they came to a river. There stood a beautiful woman who wanted to cross the river. Because the water was very deep, she could not do that without damaging her clothes. Then one of the monks took the woman on his shoulders, waded with her through the water, and set them dry on the other side of the river. Then the monks continued their hike. After four hours, the one monk bega
All the countries in the world agreed to scrap all the existing nuclear weapons and not to produce any more of them from now on.
We have come to be able to allot all war expenditure in the world for education, welfare, research and development because all the countries get along well and so military isn't necessary any longer.
All leaders in the world are working hard to eliminate poverty, wars, violence, and crimes.
I had to post this writing on April fool's day.
She opened the food packed and saw a freshly made soy-sauced meat stew, steamed rice, and some sliced mango as side dishes, aside from these a sealed water bottle. Her heart almost crushed by the feeling of deep gratitude, it’s not every day that she will receive something from a stranger. Usually, she observed people around her. They only care for themselves and for their loved ones, their welfares. They didn’t even bother to look at her like she has a contagious disease. At first, she was hurt
