This is a story about a kid who has to face the harshness of life so early in life. Her mother left her. She is now living with her addicted father. Her father made him to sell flowers on the streets. Whenever she sees a family, a mother with her kid hand in hand she dreams of having one.” Oh God if only I had parents who love me” she thinks then I would be the happiest child.

In winter when her hands are so cold she yearns for having a mother who can warm up her hands with kindness. She craves h

It is raining here.

Raining with thunder bolts!

Summer rain,

Getting back my old memories,

Getting back my  sadness.

I am sitting here beside my desk top

Sipping my morning coffee,

What a moment!

But, what about

Who are now trembling under the summer rain

Like a bird in the woods?

Though many of my blog posts are meaningful to me because they are my reflections and reality however this one I wish to recall because it isn’t every day that you get to thank God for seeing your daughter become a lady right in front of you.  “To My Daughter on her 18^th Birthday”

So this blog that I write now is my prayer of thanks for my daughter.   I have written it in such a way that the first letter of the first word for each stanza are the letters that make up her name so that my prayer co

RELIGION IS REGARDED AS THE GENERAL OBSTACLE IN THE WAY TO DEVELOPMENT:

Religion is the aspect, according to general belief, deals with the spiritual life of mankind and has no harmony with his material world, on the contrary it has a long list of 'don’ts and doe’s', resulting in the obstacles in the development, limiting the resources in allowed and not allowed to meet the needs of life.

I get up from bed muttering: «I want to sleep…». At 08:50 I am already on the road for the work. It is pleasant to walk in the summer morning eating breadsticks.

It was 15th of March 2012. In that day I saw my fruit in my colleagues’ tears . When our instructor asked me to give my impression concerning the novel “The Return of the Native “.The hero of this novel was similar to me. His dream was to teach people. So, it was easy for me to express his dream .

When I finished my speech, I noticed that most of my colleagues were moved to tears. I melted away in the sight of their eyes’ tears. I felt glad to see the effect of my speech on them and their great a

It was a late morning. Children were playing with great enthusiasm.It seemed, their life depended on it! There was a nice pathway beside the front lawn which  went towards the lowly but beautiful house. Flower-plants were beside the rocky pathway. And, they were in full blossom.

The sky was still- clear! It was a bit hot. Their mother was busy with household works. Tree-leaves were flickering in the sunlight. And, a yellow colored little unknown bird was nibbling into a bough to make a hole. Life

Blogging tips from a Seasoned Blogger:

How would I know that I am a Seasoned Blogger and am entitled to give tips for blogging?  Anyway, I give it a try:

1.  Every learner here on EC with a desire to learn and improve English.  I receive continuously requests from the learner to tell them how to improve English.  I always advise them ‘to read more and more, as much as they could’.  It is a bit difficult to develop the zeal, but it is must.  By reading, the treasure of words (vocabulary) increases.

Sometimes you may not be so sure if the sentence you just made or made by others is correct or natural. Or you may be so puzzled about a sentence. If that was the case, what would you do?

Ask for help or consult someone

Some members may want to make sure if a sentence is grammatically correct or natural. They'd send a message to an English teacher or an advanced member here or just leave a comment on their page to ask for help. Hopefully, you'll get the answer. 

Find the answer yourself

Hello everyone…

My third blog this month is not about the blog, but still it relates to English learning. In my previous blog you can find I mentioned Literature Based Approach. This is an approach to learn English using literary texts. There are many reasons for using it in the process, one of reason is literature expands language awareness. When we use literary works in the class, we actually exposed many functions of written language. By reading we gain familiarity with many features of writte

• Hey dear ! Do you hear me ? Do you really understand me ? Can you realize what I think about you ? Can you feel my heartbeats ? May be sometimes you don't. Because if you really do that you can't hurt me. You can't hit me . You can't let me bleeding in my heart . It is true that in this cruel world it is difficult to love anyone blindly. But  I don't know why my idiot mind ask blind love from you ? But you know as a true love can't I aspect some love from you ? Can't I able to hear that you love

LIVE WRITING

When I was assigned to write with other companies I always wanted about researching health and how those things became part of a very interesting business in other ways. As I was researching some portions of those researches I learned some unusual things for me like some vegetables that can be a source of either calcium or protein and many more.

Before, I need to work in a normal settings like working with other people but this time all I am doing is writing for my own, overcoming str

Comment Etiquette:

My friend Seeker has already covered some main Etiquettes in his blog.  Such topic is very confined, and stick to the same points covered by other bloggers and repetition is unavoidable.   However, as I have pointed out in my earlier blog that blogging is all about comments, so:

1.   I it makes the reader obliged to respond by his/her comment/s. 

2.   A learner has delicate sensitivity, so if the comments have the same polite delicacy then it will give an encouraging impact.

3.  

MY DAILY ROUTINE

I wake up at 4:30 a.m. (in summer, in winter time changed).  After having gone through all the necessary morning needs, I make ablution (Wudhu- essential washing for prayers).  Then I go to the mosque to offer fajr prayer.  After the prayer is finished I sit there in my place to recite Quran till Ishraq (rising of the sun) (This is also a routine in summer, in winter routine changes).  Then I go to milk shop to buy milk, curd, and bread if need.  I come back home and put the milk

The Origin of Blogs and blogging

  Dear readers, moving forward our timeline about the roots of blogs and blogging, that was narrated in the first part of my blog, let's proceed talking about next period which a new paradigm arrives in the blog world.

  Blogging come into a time that could be called in my viewpoint "Update Era". It all started when the newspaper Charlotte Observer sent a team of journalists to cover the hurricane Bonnie. Editors of this newspaper observing their competitors would

Dear friends, this is not a new blog. In my previous one I have talked on behalf of God. Dear Lady Noor has informed me that it's not appropriate to  talk on behalf of God and use the pronoun "I", so she kindly suggested me to change the pronoun "I" to "HE". Dear Noor thanks for your correction.

There was a time when he decided to create a creature named human. He endowed this creature with his own spirit. He said to spirit that he will be companion to this creature and one day he will return to

It was a sunny bright Autumn morning. I went to a hilly place with my lovely family. And, we entered into a forest to enjoy forest life. There was a tribal village in the back side of that dense forest. We saw many trees, wild flowers, birds and a lot of visitors. We were 6 in numbers. We wanted to take a group photo but who would take it? Then, suddenly I saw someone just opposite of us. And, he seemed  interested to take a photo for us. But, we did not ask. Just after that, a glimpse of old me

A day with a friend

Ah what you have reminded me. I remember a day I visited her, she welcomed me with smile. She held my hand and took me to her garden and offered me to sit on a bench under a tree. She sat beside me. She was holding an audio player and there attached the air phone. She thrust one end in my ear and the other one in hers. A soft tune started to come into my ears, then to my senses and then through entire of me. I smiled and she smiled back. I raised my arm and held her closed to

It’s all about the Comments:

It is 8th topic on the subject of ‘blog or blog post’, so naturally I can’t avoid referring to the viewpoints given in my earlier blogs on the subject. Like I have discussed earlier that a writer’s first wish is to be read, read by maximum readers so that he would be able to get their comments to his benefit, to improve language and vocabulary. So blogging, at a learning stage, as we all are at, is all about the comments, which every writer, especially me expects and
