The baby became so calm as soon as he listened to mother’s song , and slept peacefully in her warm lap. I was older than her baby . Although I was often resisting sleeping to enjoy her singing , but many times , I slept before her baby .

 Promise

P R O M I S E, Yeah these are only six letters. , but have you ever thought how powerful is this single word? I want to ask some questions from you. How many times did you say this sentence in your life”I promise you”? Maybe you told that more than 30 times for your parents, for your siblings, for your friends or for your beloved and perhaps sometimes you didn't care about what you said.  However, do you know that you give so many hopes with your promise when you make a promise something

Hi everyone! Have you noted that what those white spots are on the mountain? Those are what we call tung blossoms (also known as paulownia flower). This beautiful sight is the second major highlight of the year for flower lovers in Taiwan after cherry blossom season. Thousands of visitors go to hill and forest in April and May to see the blossoms up close. My friends and I have no exception.  We went to the neighboring areas and took numerous pictures of them the other day.

What makes them esp

The title of the blog today is an English proverb. This link explains the word proverb.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy means that if we don't balance our day with work and play then we become dull. You must know someone who spends all their hours working, often they lose their sense of humour and don't appear to be relaxed or happy.

My days are always balanced with work and play, but I am very lucky because I enjoy my work so much some days it doesn't even seem like I am even working.

Dear MyEC Members, 

Today I have a special request! We need a few volunteers to help out in the MyEC Video Gallery. As I mentioned a few months ago, the video gallery needs to be cleaned up! I truly believe that this space has great potential. Videos such as this one and this one can be very useful for practising English. 

Nadiyah has done an excellent job with the MyEC Photo Gallery. Most photos on MyEC have appropriate titles. They often have descriptions and tags, too. Nadiyah comes up with int

Each morning I write a list of things I want to achieve in the day, it is called a "to do" list, simply because they are things I want to do.

Not everyone does it, but it helps me to stay focussed. 

I sometimes also write a long term to do list. On this list I write long term objectives, this includes things that take much longer to achieve. An example of what I once wrote on the long term list was to visit Egypt. Of course, it is impossible to decide in the morning then accomplish something like

Story About My Painting - Deep In Borneo

Once in my life, I wanted to take a break of usual life and take a look at monkey pot...deep in the jungle in Borneo.

I saw a bed of monkey pot. It was the time when i was in Borneo Island. Joining a trail with some friends, to meet up with nomadic native, a tribe called Penan.

It was deep in the jungle in place called Long Seang, which rarely heard even to the locals. We were there to experience the other side of human life.

I saw a bed of monkey pot. It was

You may know the story of the old man who had two sons long ago.

The sons decided that they wanted their inheritance right away so the father divided his property between them. One son stayed at home and worked to increase his property and help his father.

The other son went far away and wasted his money on many things and did not find ways to increase it. After years passed he had no money and only the clothes on his back. So, he came home to his family.

The father welcomed his son who had been lo

Sunday is often called "The day of rest", stemming from the Bible, it is a day when most people do not have to go to work.  Some Christians still observe it as a rest day, but not all. It doesn't make anyone any less religious nor does it open them up for condemnation, because they don't rest, it's just the way things have evolved. It is a family day usually, but not always.

My Sundays are different every week. I like the times when I have somewhere to vist, or when someone is visiting me; I also

This week I had a chance to visit a theatre. I can’t do it often because of my busy life. So it was a great event for me. And it isn’t surprisingly, as there were some important reasons for it. First of all, the performance was given in a new-built theatre for the first time after the opening. It is the theatre for young spectators but it gives performances for adults as well. A new building is magnificent. The next reason was the performance itself. It was a premiere of the well-known Russian n

Recently, I've read a short story named <what the water feels like to the fishes>.

I have to say that is really an amazing short story, the author shows his talented language skill.

I am just a beginner english student, and just start to reading some english articles. However, I really feel the charming part of english language indeedly.

I used to think that chinese language is the most amazing language (no offensive , i know each language is amazing). Finally, I GOT SHOCKED because of amazing eng

When fire starts burning,
Wind intensify it.
Fire burns the wind and create water,
Water flows and understand the healing,
and always remains peaceful.
Fire ignites and lighten the earth,
with his fiery spirit.
Fire burns the earth and water fertile it.
Wind breezes and gives life,
At the end when fire starts dying,
Earth consume it inside and never let it die.
It's a pain and trauma of both.
Fire is lightest and has no weight.
Fire cannot be corrupted because it is pure.
Fire is the energy and
