A young Man had been caught in a daring act of theft and had
been condemned to be executed for it. He expressed his desire to
see his Mother, and to speak with her before he was led to
execution, and of course this was granted. When his Mother came
to him he said: "I want to whisper to you," and when she brought
her ear near him, he nearly bit it off. All the bystanders were
horrified, and asked him what he could mean by such brutal and
inhuman conduct. "It is to punish her," he said. "When I was
young

A Lion had come to the end of his days and lay sick unto death
at the mouth of his cave, gasping for breath. The animals, his
subjects, came round him and drew nearer as he grew more and
more
helpless. When they saw him on the point of death they thought to
themselves: "Now is the time to pay off old grudges." So the Boar
came up and drove at him with his tusks; then a Bull gored him
with his horns; still the Lion lay helpless before them: so the
Ass, feeling quite safe from danger, came up, and turning

The Lion went once a-hunting along with the Fox, the Jackal,
and the Wolf. They hunted and they hunted till at last they
surprised a Stag, and soon took its life. Then came the question
how the spoil should be divided. "Quarter me this Stag," roared
the Lion; so the other animals skinned it and cut it into four
parts. Then the Lion took his stand in front of the carcass and
pronounced judgment: The first quarter is for me in my capacity
as King of Beasts; the second is mine as arbiter; another share

A professor began his class by holding up a glass with
some water in it. 

He held it up for all to see; asked the students,' How much
do you think this glass weighs?' 

'50gms!' .... '100gms!' ......'125gms' ......the students answered. 

'I really don't know unless I weigh it,' said the professor,
'but, my question is: 
What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?' 

'Nothing' the students said. 

'Ok what would happen if I held it up 
like this for an hour? ' the professor asked.

Hello people.

I've never lived a war first-hand. I can imagine how terrible must be, but I can't really know how REALLY terrible it is.

My grandmother lived times of a civil war in my country. My parents lived a dictatorship. Fortunatelly for me, when I was born my country was alrea

Last night at empty avenue
I did not have a rendezvous
I wanted get an overview
but without too much ballyhoo.

There came a little kangaroo
and next to him a marabou
My thinking was: "oh Manitou!"
I closed my eyes: "that isn't true!"

They had a crazy retinue
I thought it was a miscontrue
they laughed like a bugaboo
and showed me a caribou.

There was a funny cockatoo
he wanted have an interwiev
he asked without curlicue
why I am here without a shoe.

I did not see it hitherto
I did not wear a single shoe.
I would b

When something is surplus or superabundant than its usual limit it converts to the opposite. From this definition, the term extremism pops up to the surface. It's something much more than the usual. It's usually a situation of great danger or disaster, and here, I am referring to beliefs. Extremism in beliefs is the most dangerous one. It is far than the usual reason and further than is thought to be reasonable. Opinions can be expressed without going to extremes.

Holidays is coming!!!! Every year I am looking forward to this time of the year. Why? Basically because it is the time when I can spend a lot of time with my family, relatives and friends. But this year, it is extra special for me because I will be able to spend it with my Mother in her hometown. I know how excited she is after 49 long years of not be ale to visit it and we are very grateful for this chance to meet some of our relatives that we have even seen before. I am also exited how will my

Yes, I mean 'You're completely right' by 'You're quite right'. 

The word 'quite' has two meanings: with 'gradable' words, it means 'fairly', 'rather' or 'very'; with 'non-gradable' words, it means 'completely' or 'absolutely'.

In other words, you can use 'quite' to emphasize that something is completely the case. You can say 'I'm quite sure', 'It's quite impossible', or 'That's quite amazing'. 

So, if I say 'I quite agree with you', I mean 'I agree with you completely', but you may not be that happ

[Verse 1:]
She's sitting at the table, the hours get later
He was supposed to be here
She's sure he would've called
She waits a little longer, there's no one in the driveway
No one's said they've seen him
Why, is something wrong?
She looks back to the window

Suddenly the phone rings
A voice says something's happened
That she should come right now
Her mind goes to December
She thinks of when he asked her
He bent down on his knee first
And he said

[Chorus:]

I want you forever, forever and always

"Dedicated to you"

I hear the flowers kind of crying loud
The breeze is sounding sad, oh no
Tell me when did we become so cold and empty inside
Lost our way long time ago
Did we really turn that blind?
We don't see that we keep hurting each other no
All we do is just fight

Now we share the same bright sun
The same round moon
Why don't we share the same love?
Tell me why not
Life is shorter than most had thought

Hold my hand
There are many ways to do it right
Hold my hand
Turn around and see wha

Since the human evolution

Caused the air pollution

And the weird resolution

Brought to crazy revolution!

Then the humans found solution

To create the constitution!

World went through a reconstruction

People started mass production

Mass abduction, mass destruction…

To the air pollution

Was never given any solution

All these stupid revolutions

Remind me of prostitution!

People are bought by the system

Those who buy won't ever listen

Won't  ever see people who die

Won't  ever hear children who cry!

So keep those

Ever thought what the last works of some of greatest artists throughout history looked like? What if I told ya that you're in luck? It just so happens that after doing a little bit of research I've found some final masterpieces from some of the world's most renowned artists. You can find it all, ya know? From Picasso to Rafael. (By the way, he ain't one of those terrifying 3D monsters that are tryin' to pass themselves off as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that I grew up with. Why do you keep ruin

Around May this year, my friends and I decided to have an adventure trip and this was our first trip together quite far from where we live. :) Planning started in August, looking for cheap airfare, inquiring on cheap accommodation too and tour packages. Everything was settled around middle of October and we were all excited.

From the different places that we went and visited it is one of my favourite since I love the beach. I was able to enjoy the heat of the sun that touching your skin making me

We are born for a temporary existence, so we should use our time as good as we can. We shouldn't waste our time for hate, intolerance, misunderstandings, wars, prejudices ... why so many people do it????? Why do they think they are the rulers about our earth? Nobody rules our planet. What is a human life in comparison to the eternity? Our time is not measurable. But we can use our time usefully.
Life is temporary but we leave back many damages for the eternity. I do not speak about how we influ

When the night steals the light from the day

And the sun finishes its lonely way

When the darkness covers empty streets

Only then can come out the beasts…

Under the shadow of darkness

From unknown worlds they arrive.

Got no flash no skin and so heartless

Once you caught you will not survive.

The beasts will take the whole city

It will drown in their evil embrace.

Those beasts will have no pity

It is a night-time weird dance…

This celebration of darkness goes on

Never It stops till the dawn.

Then the beasts

Let me go
Don’t hold me in your arm
Let me enjoy each moment of life
Time if flying
I don’t want to be just lying
Let me go
Let me see the sunrise
Let me have all the minutes of daylight
Don’t embrace me so tight
Your hug is warm but I want to feel the warmth of sun,
The coldness of snow and the freshness of rain
One day maybe not so far I will lie
Motionless and lifeless
I will die
But for now I want to live
I want to run, to laugh, to cry to…..
Let me go
Let me catch the warms
Let me ma
