You are living in two dreams. One belongs to you and the other does not. In both dreams you feel that everything you see is real, as a matter of fact it deceives your feeling. All you see around you including you yourself are really not formed of “matter”. By “matter” here I mean it is in terms of absolute reality. In the dream that belongs to you, you can do anything regardless whether it is right or wrong and you will not receive any reward or punishment for the deed. But in the other dream wh

I quit my job today

I knew when I agreed to take the job in Longgang, Shenzhen, Guongdong, China I was taking a risk.  Red Flags had arisen early.  Supposedly hired in early June of 2013, I heard nothing on the paperwork I needed to obtain my Visa.  I finally contacted the "Managing Director" in early July and was told that the Chinese Government was moving slowly.  I waited.  At the end of July I was asked to come obtain an F Visa instead of continuing to wait on a Z Visa (Proper work Visa).  I was told they would

Colors of time

    Do you know what the colors of time are? When the seasons change, each has its own featured color. All tiny green leaves are growing and tell you that spring has come. Summer arrives with golden sunshine and red flowers, and in Vietnam it is called flower for students, because it blossoms just in summer and it warns of the end of the long school year. Yellow falling leaves are an absolute sign of autumn, the most beautiful season of the year with little cold breezes and thin fog. Early in th

Agony

This is second of the three future blogs I promised in my blog "Catchy Blog Titles" :

Agony

Whatever I have for her is hidden in the far corner of my heart.  The worshipper’s prayer is not for any again, it doesn’t have any wish, the moth when attracted to the candle; he doesn’t have any expectation from the flame.  He is just attracted to it, just for its love.  I am burning,  burning in love.  Who gets the benefit of light of my burning is not my concern.

I was sad like the extinguished light.  M

First of all, It is a new way of expression for me. So, I want to say thanks for giving me a chance to learn a new thing. Of course, there are some Life hacks in my life also, but I am not sure whereas I would be able to write down properly or not! Okay, lets try.

Hi Tara! 

I’m a Honeybee! I would like to nominate myself for the Mascot of EC. I have the following grounds for wanting to be considered for the post. Please peruse at your leisure!

Writing Prompt ~ Writing Numbers

I recall putting a blog with the heading "HOW MANY OBJECTS" When I see this Writing Prompt "writing number" I decided to re-post the same blog again, because it falls under the said writing prompt: See:

How many objects:

The girl had twenty-five flowers and seven candles, but she was puzzled how to distribute these objects and whom she would give them to, because she had only one boy friend. Luckily the friend came to see her with one large cake and one card.

"What is this cake for?" She asked him.
