The Legacy of my Grandmother

It was a lovely afternoon in January 2010 when I turned my face to search for memorial things that belong to my maternal grandmother. I took leave and I went to my old deceased grandmother's big house to look for her old stuff. I stepped in the abandoned house and I looked around the rooms but there was nothing really interesting , I decided to go to the attic base hoping to find something interesting.
Once I got in, the attic was dark and everything around was covered

Can anyone tell me when women started using head gears? Am I sounding a bit different today? I hope not but this question has been buzzing into my mind for some days.

So far I know and how I can guess, women around the globe wear it and of course these women belong to different nationalities/races/religions. Here, I would like to mention head gears are not only beautiful scarfs, it can be hat, orna (which is known in Indian-subcontinent), the end part of a sari and yes, here you can add if you ha

Moving to a new apartment about a month ago I decided to look through all the papers and documents kept at my home for many years. There were mostly the death certificates as most of my relatives had passed away. But suddenly I noticed a secret pocket in the folder where I found one unopened envelope yellowed with time. I had never seen it before. It was addressed to me. Sure, I got

The one thing I have found out about being a moderator is that it is anything but an easy task.  I try to follow the rules as closely as I can while also trying to allow that everyone that enters the chat room has a native language that is not English.  I understand that it is so easy to revert back to one's own language at times and that it is natural.  I understand that sometimes it is a matter of respect for someone to say hello to you or good bye to you in your own language.........and at th

Dear Risty,

You are a smart kid even though heaven wouldn't allow me to see you in flesh, but I know by heart you are. Just recently, the war began and by the time you'll see the world only words written in your books are our proof of existence. I'm so glad you will be born in the future so you'll not see how painful your people gone slaughtered. The so-called fellow men turned back from good deeds and shared the pleasure evildoers love to do, seeing them raping our own women, ripping our childre

I was inherited my grandma’s old Victorian house near the mountain after she passed away sadly. I am going to renovate it and rent it to people. Because I am living and working somewhere far and I am much comfortable where I am now I don't want to live in that house.

I took the builders today to show around and asked them for a quotation. While I am going through my grandma’s belongings, I found a letter she wrote it for me with her will. Here it is,

Dear Adaline, When you read this letter I won’t

Light summer breeze was dancing in her curly hair while she was fully enjoying her morning walk. After a while she found herself in the middle of the forest, she loved so much. She was watching the sunbeams fighting against the trees, trying to win, trying to flood the whole forest with the unique gold colour. The air was so fresh that it made her feel a bit energetic. No more troubles, no more worries, it was just about her and forest – the best friends forever. She sat on the log and started l
