A New Journey Begins

 

I sit down at the desk, looking out of the window - it's a beautiful sunny Saturday morning. Saying good bye to 'yesterday',  I need to adjust the sails towards tomorrow and keep sailing. 

I won't forget what happened yesterday morning: I woke up earlier than usual and took a bus to the city. I hadn't taken a bus for so long that the bus journey became my exciting sightseeing tour. Anyway, the application papers were finally hand delivered to where they were required to be. T

Yes, people's opinions may vary, or rather, people may differ about something.  That's to say people may accept or tolerate something which seems so intolerable to others. 

People come from different countries or nations with different cultural backgrounds, religions. They're educated or raised in a way which their parents or teachers think is right. You may call it 'brainwash'. 

So, how could you think all the people around the world should always see eye to eye? Some people tend to lose their co

Some of the first vocabulary we're taught when learning a new language is animal words. Unfair though it may be (either to the animal or individual, depending on the situation), several animal words can also be used as insults in English. 

While I don't generally condone insulting anyone, it is helpful to know what some animal words mean in English slang. (Truth be told, in some cases, there really is no better word to describe an individual than that of our furry, feathery, or scaly friends.) He

History has a habit of repeating itself. Events have happened in different eras and centuries, but the underlying concept remains more or less same. We need a macroscopic view to watch the sequence of historical underpinning to understand the flow of events with logical reasoning. In this blog I would constrain my self up to the natural home of Indian maritime, sometimes called as India's backyard, "Indian Ocean". 

Indian Ocean and Indian History are intermingled in a way just like the dissolved

There are so many questions that occupy my mind, especially when it comes to religion.  Whenever I think of religion so many questions arise in my mind.

What is religion? Where does it come from? Is it sent to us by God? What is the purpose of religion?

In my opinion religion is like a guideline sent to us by God in order to help us to find the right path. Right path? What is it and to where? Altruism is the right path which leads to prosperity and happiness of all.

Actually God has no need of our

of roofless sand house...

She was walking alone bare footedly along the eve-lit-seashore…… a cute smile on her lovely face made her more attractive; she was moving slowly lost in her thoughts. He was observing her for long time. Then he could not resist himself to going nearer her, and before long he was there by her side. She greeted him with a mesmerizing smile. The magic was there; they experienced amazingly the incredible feeling of made for each other just for a second. They were standing before the ferocious sea, o

The United States is a multicultural nation, yet most Americans, regardless of their cultural backgrounds, adhere to certain social guidelines when it comes to conversation, especially with strangers, acquaintances, and colleagues. If you are planning to live, work, or travel in America, it is wise to familiarize yourself with the etiquette of communication.

Welcome to Florida!

2347129190?profile=originalWhen you drive highway 95 and cross the border between Georgia and Florida, you always see a big signboard "WELCOME TO FLORIDA!" with a picture of a lady walking her alligator on a string. And, yes, welcome to Florida, the land of alligators and wild nature, the land of contrasts where great modern cities and fashionable resorts are surrounded with wild jungle, where stepping out of the 5 star hotel you can see an alligator crossing the street or a monkey sitting on the palm trying to throw a ba

Random Thoughts

"You think too much", she yelled at me. And it was not the first time some one expressed his/her disillusionment from my idealism. Some called it juvenile, other called it pre-mature thoughts, some rejected by saying that they are far from realism others preferred not to comment. But no one said that my thoughts are irrelevant. Yes they are unorganized, yes they do not lead to any meaningful conclusion and can make you fatigue but definitely they are serious!

Yes I am serious. Damm serious!! and

If English is your second language, chances are you've struggled with verb phrases and idioms involving "touch." On more than one occasion, I've had a student, colleague, or friend end a conversation with "I'll touch you," instead of "I'll be in touch." 

So, what's the difference? Touching is the act of coming into physical contact with someone or something, whereas being in touch refers to verbal communication. "I'll touch you" is a notice of bodily contact (and, depending on the circumstances,

I have seen many complaining that even though tried hard they can’t make it improved their English level. It’s not true, to be frank, because there are hundreds of life examples where people achieved something out of their English learning practices. So one thing is clear that some people are not achieving anything from their efforts not because they are not dedicated, but they lack something that’s crucial in reaching levels.

Here I would like to talk about three things that a person should foll
