A thought, for the life.....

You can buy, a House

But can’t buy, a Family

You can buy, a Bed

But can’t buy, Sleep

You can buy, Books

But can’t buy, Knowledge

You can buy, a Clock 

But can’t buy, Time

You can buy, Position

But can’t Buy, Honour

You can Buy Blood

But can’t Buy, Life–span

You can Buy Marriage             

But can’t buy Love

You can buy many comfortable things

But can’t buy Pleasure

Life is not Money,

Money is not Everything!

If somebody asked me what do I prefer a book or an ereader I would ansvered imediately paper is paper, a few months ego.

Early in the morning you wake up

Staring at our faces with love all in wrap

You prepare the food and the other stuff

Waiting for Your children to open eyes to see your love

You extend your hands though it could be tiring

Exhaustion doesn’t prevent you in presenting your unconditional compassion

Some of Your children refuse to acknowledge, that the affection you’ve shown is genuine

They pledged how paradoxical it was to be associated with you, it is a mere imagination

You lean your ears to them; they don

"Love" In Phrasal Verbs:

This is in the inspiration of Danny's Phrasal Verbs:

She was not beautiful, but I was blown away by her personality.  Every time I met her I felt butterflies in my stomach, and my entire-self got blown off.  I always tried to blow her out of my mind, but in vain.  Her rare personality impressed me very much.  Then one day it dawned upon me, “Am I in love?!”

The island of love

There is an island, the island of love....  it seems like a lost paradise.
This island is filled with flowers, colored birds sing their tune... you can smell the fragrance and lose the senses. It is this island with green meadows, clear rivers, blue lakes, fruits on the trees and grain on the fields. The high sky with sun and moon separates day and night.
Listen to the melody of silence ... only birds sing ... to open our souls and make our hearts beat, let vanish the doubts to believe in love.

Why a rose is presented to express love ?

In my childhood, I used to ponder so much over why a rose is symbolic sign of love. A lover when desires to express his love to his beloved, he does it by presenting a bunch of roses or at least a rose with a smile on his face. I tried my best to find the answer but failed, but when I, myself experienced a love at the youngest age, I was answered of all my queries swirling in my mind.One of similarities is its unique smell and love has itself a smell which can't be hidden just like the fragrance

He was one of the thousands common persons living away from home in a modern city because of his job. The salary was not very impressive, but enough for a single person living.  He was not married so there was not much problem.  So life was somewhat going satisfactorily.  Once in a week he can afford a girl, to have a casual date and if she stays at night, it made not much expensive for him.

Life was going on.  She used to come every weekend, they pass some happy time together.  He paid

The 16th President of the Republic of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte paved his way to a bizarre stardom. As he promised and sworn that he will kill ten thousands of drug addicts/users, drug traffickers/pushers, and drug lords in his territorial jurisdiction. He assumed office last June, roughly more than two months ago but tremendously showed how serious he is to his promise. Supporters and detractors agreed in one thing that he is exceedingly effective. For a very short period, over one thous

Thoughts in a summer night

Have you ever lied under the stars at the final of the day? I'd say that it's healthy even sedative or a good therapy.Most of the times it makes me relieve the pressure of the day.This time I decided to mix up two issues; watching the stars while writing a blog since it's a long time I don't do it and surely some of you will hold it against me haha... well some of you know me and you know I'm a man of few words (or few blogs?)..
