It had been a long time ago since the last time I joined moderated chat. I have been talking with some members who are not regular chatters. They said they wanted to join the chat room if there is any moderated chat. So, I guess someone needs to revive it and asks other members to join.

Hello my dear EC friends,

Do you have any ideas how to avoid the fillers such as umh, hmm, so, alright.

Since you were imprisoned nine months in mother’s womb
To relies for bigger prison of life , if you were known what would happen you wouldn’t emerge
the chains would around you ,when you grow up they grow up with you as your shadow

Then you would be governed and led
by unjust powerful to shed
in the last breath
When you die ,you coffined by

This post reminds me of my youth , when I was a solder .i spent nine years in army . I had spent most of these years in battles , I injured two times. It was a horrible time. I saw the died’ solders’ corps throw into graves unconfined you can feel the cruel nature of war and death , as soon as you saw how solders’ corps were treated with no respect. Wars showed unimportant of their food (solders) they dealt with them as the lost objects .

Dear friends and teacher,

Years ago I wrote this text in my diary; of course I wrote it in French which is my mother tongue. I decided to translate it into English so I could take part to this fun writing challenge Tara gave us. It was not easy at all and my biggest challenge was to use the right tenses.
