I believe you all know the story about the three little pigs two of whom were too lazy to built their houses with bricks. The result is well-known. If they hadn't had the third hardworking brother, they would have become a delicious dinner for a hungry wolf. But the third brother who had made his house with bricks managed to serve them the cooked wolf for desert.

The present situation on the Florida Keys and other Caribbean islands reminds me of that tale. I can't help wondering why people constr

She wakes up in the middle of a flower sea. She wonders where she is. She looks down and is surprised because she never saw this beautiful dress that she is wearing. It is made by white linen, with blood red roses woven into the fabric.

She sits among the flowers. The wind plays with her long, curly red hair, her cheeks are rosy, and her beautiful green eyes wide opened.
While she closes her eyes again, she inhales the scent of fresh air. Birds sing their tune and butterflies dance around the flow

If you love to travel and you want to learn local languages of different places or at least know some basic sentences is one of the most exciting ways for travelers to tap into foreign culture. In nations where common languages do not usually use such as English, it’s necessary to learn some basic keywords and sentences.
Even where there is an abundance of interpreters, you’ll find that locals tend to respond better and comfortably when spoken into their native language.

This night, after staying up late as usually chatting in EC chat room, I finally hit the hay and almost immediately fell asleep, but I was not inundated with the usual night time visions, the phantasmagory that followed was way different, it was the most weird dream I ever had.

  I found myself in an idyllic scenery - temple like building, all of white stone, broad streets running through lavish gardens, people joyfully discussing or just relaxing on the carpets of grass which seemed to spread ar

I know for a fact this world is terrible, yet I'm still hopeful that someday justice will prevail and those who were oppressed will received what they deserve in life. Now, seems like I want to believe to what people are saying that the greatest danger to humanity is human race itself. Why am I saying this? Let me tell you all guys what I came across this week that I was dumbfounded to know.

One close friend of mine messaged me about a viral post she read on Facebook. I realized in my notificatio

Hi, my friends! I hope you will exscuse us for not being active these days. You may know that hurricane Irma hit Florida a few days ago and now it is recognized as the most severe huricane in history. We are lucky to be in Ukraine now, but we have lost at least a half of our real estate in Florida these days. I have been living in America for many years but I have never seen cars or boats or buses flying over the cities! The hurricane is calming down a little but is still dangerous and moving No

High under the rainbow, I wanted to be.
Watching him from the crown of a tree.
I climbed up the tree near to the rainbow,
Above me the sky and beneath me a meadow.

To touch the sky once, I wanted to try,
though I should know that the sky is too high.
I stretched my arms as high as I could.
Haha, now I know, this idea had been not so good.

Feeling my slipping, I started to scream.
Hoping it would be just a very bad dream.
The branch beneath me suddenly broke.
At first, I was thinking, "what a

SILVER HEART

How strange the human psychology is! When we love, we yearn to possess whom we love, but when we find it beyond our power to get her/him for our own, then our imagination gets activated and creates a world of our own desires, where we do what we wish to do. When we wish to see our lover, she is there before our eyes, we make her laugh, and we make her cry. Our own longing makes her long for us as if she is not united with us, she will die. So as happens with me.  I am the dweller of

The night was so spooky within the dark
when she walked alone through a very big park.

She did not know how she came to this place.
Her memory seemed been lost without any trace.

Her frightened heart was so weak and so loud
while the moon above her tried to look through a cloud.

The moon disappeared behind the cloud then again,
Her heart seemed to be caught with a big iron chain.

Then, suddenly, her legs were starting to run
because she had heard the shot of a dangerous gun.

She ran and sh

I bet you know what I'm trying to convey. Yes, I mean you can try to express the same idea in English with a different way, instead of the way that you may think is the only natural or right way.

For example, you can use 'amazing', 'excellent', 'fantastic', 'terrific', 'well down' or 'good job', instead of 'good' or 'nice'. You can say 'an extremely hot day' instead of 'a sweltering day' if you can't remember the word 'sweltering', which is what you really want to use.

It can be so monotonous, dul
