Marriage, another turning points of the life, is both individual since it brings together the lives of a man and a woman, and social, since it establishes family and kinship ties. The wedding ceremony takes place as a “festival”, especially in small village communities, since it is an activity covering the whole village. While some of the ceremonies held during different stages of the wedding can be considered as a feast and entertainment, others resemble an “elegy”.

The stages of customs and cer

No doubt the same expression exists in many languages: "History repeats itself." It is undoubtedly true. A similar sentiment probably inspired George Santayana to observe: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." Yet seldom does history repeat itself on its own anniversary. Recently we have had several examples of just that.

Last year we visited Krakow a city in Poland. We hadn't been there before. Our hotel was near the old city square,which is called Stare Miasto. Krakow is a really beautiful city, full of culture. It's an amazing city. We were there only three days. The first two days we did some walking around the main square and we visited the shopping center. The first two days the weather was bad, there was a lot of rain. Despite the rain we had an absolute very nice time. The third day we had more luck with

Dear Ma,

You gave me your blood,

And nourished me.

Loved the world outside through you.

Loved the music, the fragrance,

The tastes, which you loved.

I loved you so much then,

Still loving you.

My heart started to beat-

In rhythm with yours.

The dampness of your tears-

Burnt my reedy heart.

Then you decided to stop mine.

Yours still beats.

But not for me.

Dreamed about the long vistas-

Of a beautiful life.

But you...

Shut the door:

Before this pistillate flower:

This female imp.

But why??

Lovingly

Your unborn

I never meant to lie on you

you are my only true

you are the only way I want to go through

please don't let go

all the world doesn't matter

no one can love me better

what can I do to let you see

what you really mean to me

I will do whatever

just to be together

no one else I want to live with forever

how do I with a new life start

you promise you will never forget my heart

but do you forget our nights

the time we spent with delight

I know that it wasn't right

you are my only light

to bear my life's sight

for you I

 If you ask me what changed my life, I’ll tell you it is a book. I have so many special memories about it. There is a saying that:” A word is a teacher,  haft word is also a teacher”. So, I want to tell about it with the name “my teacher”.

 First, it is a second-hand book. I found it by chance. At that time, I was in grade 10. I was very keen on books but I didn’t have enough money to get new ones. Therefore, I usually came to charity bookshops to pick books with only 50% price. That time was re

Lately, actually from March 20 to today I have many works to do, all the projects should have done, all the test must be passed... and I feel that 24 hours per day seem not enough for me...

I quit the job a few weeks ago, and now still not find another yet, I am trying to finish all things that I not done yet to start a new life, yes, a new life. I was stuck in this too long and I feel tired of everything, everything I have in my mind.

I have finished a few things, and I am working on the rest o

Hi there!

I would like to share here a nice experience I had in class yesterday with my Elementary III (adults) group. I have taught them about food, some healthy habits, keeping fit and so on, so I thought: "I should invite one of my friends from My English Club to be interviewed by my students...". So, that's what happened. I logged in and saw Martin, from Slovakia, online, then I invited him to participate in an interview activity and he said YES!!! I got very happy, because I wanted to provi
