I can’t imagine gathering the family around an old radio to catch the latest Joe Louis fight when I have a fifty inch high definition plasma TV with pay per view‚ hot wings and a big bowl of chips and salsa waiting for me. Sitting around a radio listening to a broadcast just doesn’t

It’s a brand new day Not all would agree to me when I say it’s a New Day "Let’s celebrate". Everyone would say "How is it different from yesterday? I woke up at the same time‚ followed the same routine‚ completed the same‚ old boring work at office and went to bed just feeling tired ".

Or else this world is gonna be doomed

It was the first day of my new life‚ the life that I was going to spend buried in books‚ cramming to meet deadlines and running to class‚ late as ever. As I boarded the bus that fateful day‚ I thought of how this would work out. I wondered how all of my high school friends were doing.

lonely children. Most young children as early pre-K feel lonely due to one reason or another - due to moving‚ their friend moving‚ being a new student‚ loneliness on the playground during recess time‚ etc. I think as adults we are quick to say "You’ll make new friends" when we send them off to school‚ but the reality is‚ they are scared and lonely sometimes.
