Lesson 70
Hello everyone,
How was the previous lesson? Was it easy? Praise the Lord!
Today, I am going to share something with you. I hope you will not rise against me!!
Recently, I received two messages that, to me, are of good interest. The first one is a message that has been brought to you seemingly with the aim of introducing peace and friendship among the people of different religions and backgrounds. Personally, I, and probably the majority of you, have already, yet unconsciously, believed in this way. However, this message seems to give everyone a deeper understanding to awaken and gather them around one light. Probably, people of the world must have gone astray a bit!
You may find this message at this address: http://www.remindedway.com

I enjoyed it a lot and, hopefully, you will enjoy it too!
The second message, which I received later this week, is about someone's ideas, which seems deep. I do not know why people should send such messages to this educational site! However, I appreciate their putting trust in me! I wanted to share the complete message with you. However, I changed my mind at the very last moments when I was going to upload this page. Therefore, I have just copied a couple of sentences from that message. It says:
" ... WE USED TO HATE PEOPLE - NOW WE JUST MAKE FUN OF THEM - IT'S MORE EFFECTIVE THAT WAY - WE DON'T LIVE - WE JUST SCRATCH ON DAY TO DAY WITH NOTHING BUT MATCHBOOKS AND SARCASM IN OUR POCKETS - AND ALL WE ARE WAITING FOR IS FOR SOMETHING WORTH WAITING FOR ..."
"... LET'S STOP SAYING "DON'T QUOTE ME" - BECAUSE IF NO ONE QUOTES YOU YOU PROBABLY HAVEN'T SAID A THING WORTH SAYING - WE NEED SOMETHING TO KILL THE PAIN OF ALL - THAT NOTHING INSIDE ..."
" ... WE'RE NOT BROKE - WE'RE BROKEN - WE'RE SO POOR WE CAN'T EVEN PAY ATTENTION - SO WHAT DO YOU WANT - YOU WANT TO BE FAMOUS AND RICH AND HAPPY - BUT YOU'RE TERRIFIED -YOU HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER THIS WORLD - THING TO SAY AND NO WAY TO SAY IT..."
"... LET'S STOP PRAYING FOR SOMEONE TO SAVE US AND START SAVING OURSELVES - LET'S STOP THIS AND START OVER - LET'S GO OUT- LET'S KEEP GOING - THIS IS YOUR LIFE..."
Let's be optimistic that you will not consider it as wasting your time! As you know, sometimes, it is not very bad to change the mood of routine classes, which lazy students (not you!!) welcome it!
In the meantime, let me request you to please post your future articles on the message board, which will keep us all safer!!
All right, now let's do the quiz first and then go to Useful Drills page.
