Lost and got back

I went to the sea

to ask about you

Climbed  steep mountains

to find you

Wondering into the woods

Asked neighbors

made several phone calls

Silence was there

Many days passed by

 Pretending to forget

Then the Summer breeze told me

 yesterday you went to the brook

to hear  my voice.

The Lost Twins

One day 2 baby girl with an age of around 2-3 years old was lost from the ship. They were both carried by their fat mom. They came from Canada. That tragedy was a very bad experience since angel is the only one left from the middle of seashore with her mom, but someone told her that her mom was already dead. She was looking for her twin sister around 11 noon after she came to see a fat woman whom she thinks it was her mom.

It was around lunch time she was crying believing that her real mom was de

Last night was horrible. My roomate and I got used to having chit chat before sleep. She started to talk about her little sister after I turned off the lamp and set my alarm. At first it was a light talk but it brought us into forbidden theme.She told me her third eye had been opened. So, she could see ‘unusual’ things in the past. Then, her father closed it because she became a nurse and afraid this ability might bother her somehow. That was quite a surprise for me because she just a clumsy gir

First off, I want to make a simile in order to clarify and highlight the importance of this blog’s topic. Motivation for humans is like petrol in the fuel tank of a car. It inspires the will power, instills hope into the souls, and keeps everybody encouraged to achieve their wants. Motivation is a pivotal necessity in our lives, and without motivation, we look like walking ghosts who are wandering aimlessly.
We have different goals in our lives and different motivational factors to reach these g

A match made in heaven!

"When you cry I'll fight to put a smile on your face
If you fall, we fall
I will hear you call...
We're a match made in heaven"

Just kidding! Okay, here's the deal. There are a bunch of idioms that you must guess by looking at these pictures. Find them. Use them in sentences and um..., uh..., yep, that'll be all. Two pics; one idiom. Is it clear? Oh, I chose the pictures at random. Have fun!

A Rose, a Garden, a World

"To try is to risk failure. But risks need to be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing and is nothing. They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel change, grow, love and live. Chained by their certitudes, they are a slave; they have forfeited their freedom. Only a person who risks is free.”

Math and Peanut Allergy

Math is not my strong suit. There, I said it. Every time I see a math problem; my heart beats very fast, I start to perspire and I gasp for air. I feel like somebody needs to discover a cure for it. Maybe an allergy shot for example. You know, something like they've got for an anaphylactic shock; that's just a big, fancy word for having a severe allergy attack. I'll be their #1 investor if they do. I promise. On my honor! I just gave you guys a million dollar idea. You're welcome! Anyway, I don'

Nice and Simple as an Iranian Lady


Yesterday, I went to a park to walk and enjoy the fresh smell of spring. It was a sunny day. A man was sitting on a bench, he was reading a newspaper. A little boy was sitting beside him, then a woman came with three ice-creams in her hands. She sat on the bench beside the little boy and gave him an ice-cream. The woman gave the man an ice-cream, too. They were a family.

Lunch today will be...

Eating healthy is important.

No kidding! It is a serious issue when it comes to growing children, because what's known as the junk food (not to them of course!) is ruining their healthy eating habits. The Sweetgreen restaurant chain released a series of school lunch comparisons from all over the world, to show us how culture could affect the diversity of school lunches. From a US or UK point of view, the school lunches in many other countries look mouth-watering and fresh. Unfortunately, lunch la

Tautologies in Common Use

Tautology is a complicated term that means saying the same thing twice. It's considered bad use of language.

Unfortunately, however, there are numbers of word pairs that are tautologies that have crept into common use. Here are some examples:

Swap out - this seems to be more commonly used in US English. Swap means to change something. I often read the term "swap out" as in, he said he would swap out the batteries so the torch would work. Swap would have done fine alone.

Sort out - we can sort somet

I don’t know from where to start and where to stop, what to care about and what to drop, what to amplify in and what to crop. Is it possible for a human to ignore other's pain, torture and suffer, and still be considered as a human. What is Humanitarian so. what Palestine means to me?, where is it? and where am trying to go?  .......

EVERYBODY IS A GENIOUS.
BUT IF YOU JUDGE A FISH BY ITS ABILITY TO CLIMB A TREE,
IT WILL LIVE ITS WHOLE LIFE BELIEVING THAT IT IS STUPID. ~ Albert Einstein.

Different people learn differently. There are introverts/extroverts, close-minded/open-minded, messy/OCD, booksmart/streetsmart... So why we insist on using only 1 teaching method when there are SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS TO LEARN?!!!

Let's think about to change the educational system for once!

HOW I WROTE THE BLOG, 'BROKEN HEART'

I was looking for the articles through the link provided by Expector, the challenger.  I was scrolling and reading the detail for articles "a, an and the".  I stopped at the portion where the article ‘an’ was mentioned.  There was also an example given: “an umbrella”  I stopped there for a while.  Since this article is rarely used along with the noun starting with a vowel.  I was thinking how to use this phrase, “an umbrella” in my next blog in response to Exp

consequence of lying

Some people say white lie does not hurt. Someone tells it to avoid hurting another person. I don't believe in that. A lie is a lie. Whether white or colored. God does not like dishonest or untruthful ones. In fact, lying is a bad habit. It shows insufficiency or decrease of the individuality. Cowardice or being afraid of something are one of its major merits.  

The previous production leads to the story of   that shepherd who used to lie to his village people.

                                   In Suzhou

I just got back from Suzhou. It is a City near Shanghai. But it is not as busy as Shanghai. Instead it is a city which has the flavor of a village.

We liked the vibes and everything over there. On the way from Shanghai to Suzu there were many things to see. It looked like the country side. We enjoyed fisherman's houses, ducks and ducklings, meadows,  cherry blooms and so on.

One day we went to a Lake side. There we enjoyed the scenic beauty of the lake.
