2019

Tonight is like yesterday. I remember I wrote my article about 2018. It was entitled (Proactive Approach). I was always optimistic about the New Year.

A dialogue between grandpa (GP) and grandson (GS).

Lately, I experienced lots of bad memories. It seems, all of those were coming in the same time without giving me space to breathe. This is a life, either I like or not, though. 

The good thing from these occurrences is my passion to write bigger than before, looks like the ideas come up easily, effortless. Thanks God, at least I can post a blog that represents my feeling in the moment as well as practicing my English writing. This writing only my thoughts, no other purposes.

... In the distance, he vaguely sees a girl smiling ...,

It was just a flash back of thoughts, the girl smiling was his wife twenty two years back, he recalled the memory of her, she didn’t change a bit during their long time of marriage, she stayed the same.

How come he got so blind? When did he realize that he forgot to treasure her? How could he forget what a unique woman, wife and mother she was? How could he forget what was the most important in his life, his wife and their two children?

Because of insufficient time spent on writing and grammar, as well as the abundance of incorrect written English on places like internet blogs and chat rooms, there are many small written mistakes which are both frequent and simple to fix. Improving your writing allows the reader of your work to focus on your content and not get distracted by errors.

This way John could take rest while Markus is driving and vice versa.  It went on smoothly until John and Markus indulged themselves in a polemic t

John lost all his properties and money in business. He was totally depressed. He didn't know what to tell his family and friends. 

He was sitting in a park and thinking about his future plan. 

Suddenly a person came in business attire and told him  " Hi dear I knew everything about you and I am giving a blank cheque to you. You write the amount how much you want.

A letter, written by a man to his friend:

Hi, dude!

Next time you're in my neck of the woods, just call me.
We had not gone for a pint...for donkey's years.
I hope you still like a good drop of beer.
By the way...do you still smoke? Last year, I quit smoking. I quit smoking cold turkey. You know? It was not that piece of cake but my doctor told me if I don't want to kick the bucket soon, I have to quit smoking. The first days after quitting smoking, I was a little under the weather, but meanwhile,
