I've come across the following:
1. You are reason enough for me to go on living.
2. He's enough reason to give up my freedom.
Now, are "reason enough" and "enough reason" interchangeable? Or is there any difference in the nuance or the meaning?

The winter of late autumn arrived yesterday. It started at middle day with sleet and rain and finished it with something close to snow at yesterday's night. So to the night the ground was all covered with white carpet.. It's great, because the snow wont let it get dark at night. I don't need to switch lights on if I have to get up at night... Actually I think I did not switch light on also before.. Hmmmm, I guess the city lights give some light even without snow. Oh and air was nice and clean to

I only have three keys. I never paid attention that I do not have so many keys:one for the entrance door and the other for my car. The third one is an extra key that I made for my dad last year.He came to Canada to visit me and as such, an extra key was made for him. I think the reason that I do not have different keys with different key-chains is that I do not like to carry so many objects with me. I like to have a neat and organized purse

Yes, this was the first thing I saw this morning :) I grabbed my phone and took these pictures :) 

Kachins and Burmese will no longer be able to live side by side under this ever color-changing chameleon government. What color the regimes may change, their main aim is to disperse, crash and finally, to eliminate the minorities. The government never gives up to abandon their old way of TaKhins’ policy as their pioneers, TaKhins of British colonials’ plan and strategies i.e. to eliminate minorities in the country and take away their lands. In order to conquer the whole country into an inconvinc

    A lot of people talk about wanting more balance and flexibility in their work and in their lives, about wanting to achieve “work/life” balance. Work isn't something you do when you’re not living your life. It’s just as much a part of your life as family time or play. You get to choose what matters most to you, and how much attention you wish to give to each area of your life first, second, and so on. If you don't have much control over the hours you have to work, you can ask yourself, "In wh

                “Sam uncle, Sam uncle, please help me.” Sam turned to look at the little boy, stretching out his lunch box to him. It was too tight for the little fingers to open with ease. “Thank You, I am very hungry,”

The boy was happy to see the opened lunch box.

Sam is an employee in a well-established school in our city. He loves his work place and ready to go an extra mile to help out anyone in need. He is a sincere peon who is loved by everyone. I always admire

I came online this afternoon and chat a little bit. After that, I went to my page and what I saw on my avatar shocked me! Why is this someone out there labelled me as "Spambuster"?? :S I don't really like to have a label on my avatar, so at least you could have asked me first about it :S

As my Uncle Ben has said, "With great power, comes great responsability". 

Please, with this label it means I have to keep coming here daily and check who is messing up by spamming and I can't do that :s

It is really solution for failed people to escape and leave problems on others o live and solve it.

this kind of people are living with us , once he is feeling that he is in safe he looks like friend and more than that .

Suddenly if you have obstacles he ignores you and your area and redirects his face for a place to feel safe again.

It was really shock for me when I had situation with one man left all of his family and escape alone and left them.

it is a big mistake to call him MAN or HUMAN , cats

What is Eid al-Adha?

At the end of the Hajj (annual pilgrimage to Mecca), Muslims throughout the world celebrate the holiday of Eid al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice).

What does Eid al-Adha commemorate?

During the Hajj, Muslims remember and commemorate the trials and triumphs of the Prophet Abraham. The Qur'an describes Abraham as follows:

"Surely Abraham was an example, obedient to Allah, by nature upright, and he was not of the polytheists. He was grateful for Our bounties. We chose him and guided hi

I accept one man's ( let's call him Jack here) pursuit without knowing his backgrounp at the begging, but i know his backgroug gradually, just feeling we have same topic with each other, he is a talent and hardworking person.

never getting back never backing down
i'm man in a mission i'm a man on fire
the sun is getting darker the sun is hiding back
all u know is ending all the truth is lie
tears laughs and just that the feeling i have look back see the wings see the wind in your hear
look up see the face see the light of my soul
i'm the savor i'm the one of haven i'm the love u should have
i'm just a slave of the wish  youuuuuuuuuuuu made

Stand up in the dark speechless

Locked up in a cage so empty so sad 

Nothing in but my tears my sadness

My soul is hanging my body is falling

I see you my sunshine, my savor, my way to the light

You hold my dreams my thoughts and my hopes

Travelling through your arms, sealing through you hair

Finding out the truth discovering the reality

All what I know is u

All what I need is u 

    My heart my feelings my only dream

I just want to be a part of u

It has been a while since we've done a "getting to know you" exercise on MyEC. I hope you'll join me in this month's writing challenge! 

For this writing challenge, I will need you to reach into your purses, knapsacks, or coat pockets and grab your keys. Set your keys out in front of you and have a good look at them.

What does your keychain say about you? 

When we use the word "say" in this way, we do not mean to speak out loud. The word "say" can also mean "to reveal/show/prove/suggest". For examp
