I didn't write this but absolutely love what this woman wrote. I just wish I knew who the original author was, so that the appropriate credit can goes to her.

It was shared in my Facebook wall, and I thought it depicted the absolute truth faced by women nowadays. To confine to what the media portrayed as an ideal woman. We, women, constantly need to uphold to certain image, which in reality ridiculous to achieve. I have to admit, sometimes I do longed for certain things when looking at those imag

Once a Saint came across with Satan (Devil) and argued with him, “why you do all the bad deeds and cause violence amongst the mankind?”   “Me! No sir,” replied the Satan politely,  “I never do any such thing, I just have got the bad name for all the bad deeds happening in the world.  They are not caused by me.”

 “No, it’s you who is responsible of all the sins the mankind commit!” Retorted the Saint!

 “No, Sir,” the Satan repeated quite humbly, “I do not ask anyone to do anything w

Hello my friends in English Club

Lets get some of                   

                      Formal and Informal Greetings

I lose you again in circle of love and take refuge from my God, the only sentry to keep you in this circle. I'm sure I've taken a good sentry. Some times I feel pain in my eyes and can't beer any more tears. What should I do? If the challenging of love lasts years, if it has problems, if it needs power to encounter hardships, I've got to tolerate and stay. Should encounter and have patience and go on the challenge. I use power of love as the protector for my uncontrollable heart and also, I want

I swear by the quiet silence of your paper house, I know your dreams are as beautiful as my fancies believable.

You've got the mystic believe of love from my silence. I've got the final point of belief from your silence.

Maybe it's not possible to feel that the words we say about the paper world we've made are hearable. But we can start to paint the gray branches of the paper trees green.

I know painting, you know painting too. So why don't you start?

When I was a child, I didn't have any water colo

Don’t go for looks; they can deceive
Don’t go for wealth; even that fades away
Go for someone who makes you smile
Because it takes only a smile to
Make a dark day seem bright
Find the one that makes your heart smile

Dream what you want to dream
Go where you want to go
Be what you want to be
Because you have only one life
And one chance to do all the things
You want to do

When you were born, you were crying
And everyone around you was smiling
Live your life so at the end
You are the one who is smiling and everyone
Around you is crying

When the existence kills everything beautiful,

the farewell becomes a necessity.


It's really too hard to express your feelings, intertwined 
like the roots of tropical trees,

you cannot separate them without severely damaging them.

Unfortunately, you can't know anything for sure until you drop yourself in this life,

making right and wrong choices and test everything.

We each have to do this, but destiny makes the difference between my life and yours.

Man does not attain all his heart's desires for the

I do not know how to begin this. It is a story about a fifty five year old man falling in love with a woman who is twenty years younger than him. First, I am wondering if that is possible or not! However, the experience is somehow strange and a bit complicated. It started on the internet. The internet and what will make you know the internet! They say it is a double edged weapon. It can cut both ways. Of course, you know what I am trying to say.

They were a teacher and a student. Suddenly it beca

My deepest condolences to the demise of the beloved mother of OHNIE by the age of 79 in the Philippines due to lung problem. May the soul rest in peace. Amen !

Hi,

Today, I'll continue learning 7 new words about "beauty".

Hmm, so what adjectives can I use describe a building or to say our feeling towards it?

beautiful, breathtaking, impressive...? what else?

Well,it's time to adopt some new words before I get annoyed with my limited vocabulary :D

Now, when you evaluate a building you can:

A describe it physically

B say how effect it has on you

Look at the adjectives below and decide which category they fit in, A or B.

Did you know that here and there are sometimes confusing to English learners? These words are selected based on distance from the person speaking. Did you ever get confused by here and there?

This, that, these and those are also confusing words which are based on distance and number, so I will quickly explain the differences between them.

If something is close it is here. If we can touch a book, we would say it is here.

If it is not so close it is there.  If a book is across the room we would say i
