Mistletoe

                          

I was watching Christmas movies, some of the movies got the scene which is kissing under the mistletoe. I wonder why? So I try to read about it.

What is Mistletoe and where does it grow?

Mistletoe is the common name for most obligate hemiparasitic plants in the order Santalales. Mistletoes attach to and penetrate the branches of a tree or shrub by a structure called haustorium through which they absorb water and nutrients from the host plant (wikipedia). It's native to Gr

My word of the year 2016: happiness

As many other years, what I really want is happiness.Everything is never always like your ambitions. Sometimes I fell that my salary is not high compared with may others. But the truth is I didn’t choose a challenging job. I don’t want to spend 10 hours at work everyday. In my point of view, I want a job which I do not have to work so hard. I want to have time with my dear family. So it means that my salary is not high. Sometimes I wonder if I’m not a smart one, a good one that I can’t earn a lo

When British people say one thing, they often really mean the exact opposite! Any Brit will recognize themselves in this list. 1. 'I might join you later' — Translation: I'm not leaving the house today unless it's on fire. 2. 'Excuse me, sorry, is anyone sitting here?' — Translation: You have 3 seconds to move your bag before I get really annoyed. 3. 'Not to worry.' — Translation: I will never forget this! 4. Saying 'Sorry' as a way of introducing yourself. 5. 'Bit wet out there.' — Translation:

Words without love

Anatole France was right when he said until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened. Animals bring you instant happiness.Isn't it true? Let me tell you one story.

At her home she fixed a place where she placed 2 pots for birds, 1 for water and 1 for food. One day she went outside with her family. Her car stopped in a traffic jam she was getting bored s

It's not always so easy to choose one word from a vocabulary of 1 million. But we have to choose one for 2016 - another emoji won't do any more. 

I could have chosen the word 'change', but Tara has chosen it for the new year. I have to choose another one instead. My choice is this word: challenge. Yes, it was 'challenge' not 'change' that I chose.  

In the new year 2016, I may work in another hospital instead - far away from where I live now. I'll still save lives in hospital but in a totally diff

My word of the year 2016 is going to be 'kind'. Proverbs 3:3 says, Do not let kindness and truth leave you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart.

I try my best to be kind to those around me, all the time, I hope to continue the same this New year too.

Before I make my New year goal I must admit I wasn't kind to myself at all. Self kindness leads to huge satisfaction in life. So this New year I am going to find a time for myself, now and then treat myself , respect mys

Constitutionalism Abhors Absolutism

Rules that govern us as a society, country and world. Even rules are organic and they grow with time. Principles are dynamic and they change with time. A little look on the growth of constitutionalism with time.

At the inceptions of every civilization it was ruled by some king or head of the community who derived their legitimacy with some commonly established norms. Caliphs got their authority from religions, English from Queen, Indians from Kinds, Chinese had dynasties and tribals around the wo

About unknown things

Are our brains intelligent to understand things that we don't see or know?

For instance, do we understand or know what happened before Big  bang or what happens after death? To What extent is it applicable to talk about unknown things?  Is it possible to solve everything with our brains?

this words come from God s heart, who want every one of us have the best thing in this passing life, he doesnt wants either of us to be suffering all the time(sometimes God permits it), he doesnt wants us to hate and kill one another, the one who says that believe in Allah, will never kill or do wrong to anyone. Because God is the fountain of Love and He says, He who  doesnt love, has not known Allah yet.

Whoever claims to love God yet and hates a brother or sister is a liar. F

Tara is leaving

Yes, our administrator Tara is going to leave MyEC. She's got a new job, a full-time position, and she just announced the change in her new writing challenge. I'm so confused, too - it's the 'challenge' or the 'change' that we need to take. 

She was so sorry to leave MyEC, to leave all of you, but the word 'change' is the one she chose for the new year 2016. 

Maybe you can't believe it or you don't think it's true, but it's the 'change' that you have to accept at the moment, no matter how surprisi
