I cannot seem to think of anything now than of my fatigue. Feeling like my body is going to droop anytime this day. Wanting to succumb for slumber, unfortunately working is a must. A series of sleepless nights is never really a good idea when you are working more or less seventeen hours a day.  I do have a choice to rest last night, but I chose to accompany my mother tending my father who was just admitted because of an accident. He was just sent to the operating room this morning before I left

I love the lyrics of Daddy's Hands

I remember Daddy´s hands, folded silently in prayer.
And reaching out to hold me, when I had a nightmare.
You could read quite a story, in the callouses and lines.
Years of work and worry had left their mark behind.
I remember Daddy´s hands, how they held my Mama tight,
And patted my back, for something done right.
There are things that I´ve forgotten, that I loved about the man,
But I´ll always remember the love in Daddy´s hands.

Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I

I just entered into my room after having a head bath; yes, I felt a little sleepy so lay in my bed for a while. I was about to have a nap, but suddenly my mind drawn out to my key chain, which was next hung on a hook fixed to my wooden cupboard. Yes, I can remember the sleep-talk I had with my keychain. Yes, we discussed lots sitting side by side like closer friends.

I was really gifted my key chain almost a decade back by my elder sister (I’ve only two sisters; I’m middle) living abroad. Actuall

It is a poem by Sara Teasdale which I've written by my handwriting here.

I am not yours

I am not yours, not lost in you,
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon,
Lost as a snowflake in the sea.
You love me, and I find you still
A spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be
Lost as a light is lost in light.
Oh plunge me deep in love -- put out
My senses, leave me deaf and blind,
Swept by the tempest of your love,
A taper in a rushing wind.

There are always some words that you like to say to your friends, something like:

"Have a Nice Day", "Have a Great Time", "Thank You", "Happy Birthday", "Merry Christmas", "Good Night", "Good Morning", and etc.

There are many cards for them, but maybe you like to make a special one for a special person, yourself.

And also if your friends know that you have made it by yourself, they would be much happier surely.

There are some simple ways for making a Greeting Card.

Let's make one together!

Have you heard of NaNoWriMo? This is the short form for National Novel Writing Month. Every November, at least 300,000 people try to write the first draft of a novel in just 30 days. To complete this personal challenge, NaNoWrimo participants have to write 50,000 words between November 1-30. 

I've always wondered what it would be like to write a novel so quickly. My first novel took me ten years to outline, draft, revise (a million times), polish, edit, and publish! This year, since I'm feeling a

The coconut palm, Cocos nucifera, belongs to the family Arecaceae or some people call it the Palmae family. Actually, the fruit of this superlative palm is botanically defined as a drupe that consists of three outer most layers such as: exo-carp, meso-carp and endo-carp respectively. In the case of coconut (actually, the word “nut” is a mis-terminology in this case), the endo-carp is a hard shell. Most of the higher plants could basically be divided into three sections such as: the root system,

You never talk about it.

But you play the role all the time.

Invisible love is there, rising and rising.

The tea plant is not a bush in nature, but a medium size tree. Actually, tea bush is a man-made bush, and the growth of the tea plant is arrested at different stages and kept in the form of a bush for the convenience of man. Today, tea is a commercial plantation that is distributed in many parts in the globe. The commercial tea plantations could be found as far as north as Georgia (42⁰ N) and as far as south as Argentina (27⁰ N). The tea plant belongs to the genus Camellia which includes many sp

*Do you take these steps before speaking?

*How many of the people you know consider these steps before speaking?

OR

*Are you the kind of a person who thinks after speaking?! 

That awkward moment when you are thinking:

"Oh gosh,why did I even say that?!"

"I wish I could take my words back!"

"I really hurt him/her!"

"There is no way they are gonna hire me!"

,...

        Almost all of us have experienced those awkward moments!

BUT

People who speak without thinking can be annoying!

AND
