life is a short journey

 life is a short journey

life is a short journey
it may be bitter
it may be honey
life is a short journey
choose your way
choose your mate
you won't be early
you won't be late
our ways may differ
but our end is there
go by car or by train
go on foot or by plane
go on horseback or by rocket
go by bike or by boat
life is a short journey
all of us will be on time
all of us will be the same
all of us will have a luggage
choose what to leave
choose what to take

choose what to build
choose what to break
life is a short journey
whether you like it
or you don’t
you try to change it
but you can’t
to break it
life is a short journey
whether you like it
or you don’t
you try to change it
but you can’t
life is a short journey


"Palestine Will Be Free"

"Palestine Will Be Free"

Every day we tell each other
That this day will be the last
And tomorrow we all can go home free
And all this will finally end
Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free

No mother no father to wipe away my tears
That’s why I won’t cry
I feel scared but I won’t show my fears
I keep my head high

Deep in my heart I never have any doubt
That Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free

I saw those rockets and bombs shining in the sky
Like drops of rain in the sun’s light
Taking away everyone dear to my heart
Destroying my dreams in a blink of an eye

What happened to our human rights?
What happened to the sanctity of life?

And all those other lies?
I know that I’m only a child
But is your conscience still alive

I will caress with my bare hands
Every precious grain of sand
Every stone and every tree
‘Cause no matter what they do
They can never hurt you
Coz your soul will always be free

Palestine tomorrow will be free
Palestine tomorrow will be free



الولد وشجرة التفاح


قصة قصيرة..الولد وشجرة التفاح
الولد وشجرة التفاح
A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree
.
في قديم الزمان ... كان هناك شجرة تفاح ضخمة ...
A littleboy loved to come and play around it everyday
.
و كان هناك طفل صغير يلعب حول هذه الشجرة كل يوم ..
He climbed to thetreetop, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow
...
كان يتسلق أغصان الشجرة ويأكل من ثمارها ... ثم يغفو قليلا لينام في ظلها ...

He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
كان يحب الشجرة وكانت الشجرة تحب أن تلعب معه ...
Time went by...the little boy had grown up
,
مر الزمن... وكبر الطفل...
And he no longer playedaround the tree every day
.
وأصبح لا يلعب حول الشجرة كل يوم...
One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad.
في يوم من الأيام ... رجع الصبي وكان حزينا!!
"
Come and play with me," the tree asked the boy.
فقالت له الشجرة: تعال والعب معي ..
"
I am no longer akid, I do not play around trees any more"
The boy replied.
فأجابها الولد: لم أعد صغيرا لألعب حولك...
"
I want toys. I need money to buy them."
أنا أريد بعض اللعب وأحتاج بعض النقود لشرائها...
"
Sorry, but I do not have money...
فأجابته الشجرة: أنا لا يوجد معي نقود!
!
But you can pickall my apples and sell them
.
So, you will have money.
ولكن يمكنك أن تأخذ كل التفاح الذي لدي لتبيعه ثم تحصل على النقود التي تريدها...
"
The boy was so excited.
الولد كان سعيدا للغاية...
He grabbed all the apples onthe tree and left happily.
فتسلق الشجرة وجمع كل ثمار التفاح التي عليها وغادر سعيدا ...
The boy never came back after hepicked the apples
.
لم يعد الولد بعدها ...
Thetree was sad.
فأصبحت الشجرة حزينة ...
Oneday, the boy who now turned into a man returned

وذات يوم عاد الولد ولكنه أصبح رجلا...!!!
And the tree was excited "Come andplay with me" the tree said
.
كانت الشجرة في منتهى السعادة لعودته وقالت له: تعال والعب معي...
"
I do not have time toplay. I have to work for my family.
ولكنه أجابها:
لا يوجد وقت لدي للعب .. فقد أصبحت رجلا مسئولا عن عائلة...
We need a house for ****ter
.
ونحتاج لبيت يأوينا...
?
Can you help me
هل يمكنك مساعدتي ؟
" Sorry
",
آسفة!!
I do not have any house. But you can chop off mybranches
To build your house.
فأنا ليس عندي بيت ولكن يمكنك أن تأخذ جميع أغصاني لتبني بها بيتا لك...
"
So the man cut allthe branches of the tree and left happily.
فأخذ الرجل كل الأغصان وغادر وهو سعيد...
The tree was glad to see him happy but theman never came back since then
.
كانت الشجرة مسرورة لرؤيته سعيدا... لكن الرجل لم يعد إليها ...
The tree was again lonelyand sad
.
فأصبحت الشجرة وحيدة و حزينة مرة أخرى...
One hot summer day,
وفي يوم حار من ايام الصيف...
The man returned and the tree was delighted
.
عاد الرجل.. وكانت الشجرة في منتهى السعادة..
"
Come andplay with me!" the tree said.
فقالت له الشجرة: تعال والعب معي...
"
I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself.
فقال لها الرجل لقد تقدمت في السن.. وأريد أن أبحر لأي مكان لأرتاح...
"?
Can you give me a boat"
"
Said the man".
فقال لها الرجل: هل يمكنك إعطائي مركبا..
"
Usemy trunk to build your boat.
You can sail far away and be happy.
فأجابته: خذ جذعي لبناء مركب... وبعدها يمكنك أن تبحر به بعيدا ... وتكون سعيدا...
"
So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat
.
فقطع الرجل جذع الشجرة وصنع مركبا!!
He wentsailing and never showed up for a long time
.
فسافر مبحرا ولم يعد لمدة طويلة..
Finally, the man returned after many years
.
أخيرا عاد الرجل بعد غياب طويل .......
"
Sorry, my boy. But I do not have anything for you anymore.
ولكن الشجرة قالت له: آسفة يا بني.. لم يعد عندي أي شئ أعطيه لك..
No moreapples for you...
"
The tree said".
وقالت له: لا يوجد تفاح...
"
No problem, I do not have any teeth to bite
"
The manreplied.
قال لها: لا عليك لم يعد عندي أي أسنان لأقضمها بها...
"
No more trunk for you to climb on"
لم يعد عندي جذع لتتسلقه..
"
I am too old for that now" the man said.
فأجابها الرجل لقد أصبحت عجوزا ولا أستطيع القيام بذلك!!
"
I really cannot give you anything...
قالت: أنا فعلا لا يوجد لدي ما أعطيه لك...
The only thing left is my dyingroot
,"
The tree said with tears.
قالت وهي تبكي.. كل ما تبقى لدي جذور ميتة...
"
I do not need much now, just a place torest.
فأجابها: كل ما أحتاجه الآن هو مكان لأستريح فيه..
I am tired after all these years" the man replied
.
فأنا متعب بعد كل هذه السنين...
"
Good! Old tree rootsare the best place to lean on and rest,
فأجابته: جذور الشجرة العجوز هي أنسب مكان لك للراحة...
Come, come sit down with meand rest
.
تعال ... تعال واجلس معي لتستريح ...
"
The man sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears...
جلس الرجل إليها.. كانت الشجرة سعيدة.. تبسمت والدموع تملأ عينيها...
This is you and the tree is your parents!!!
هل تعرف من هي هذه الشجرة؟
إنها والدك!!

BOOKS

BOOKS

Book consists of written or printed sheets of paper or some other material fastened together along one edge so it can be opened at any point. Most books have a protective cover. Books are a
reasonably inexpensive and convenient way to store, transport, and find knowledge and information. The book thus ranks as one of humanity's greatest inventions.
People have used books in some form for more than 5,000 years. In ancient times, people wrote on
clay tablets, strips of wood, or other materials. The term book comes from the early English word boc, which means tablet or written sheets. The first printed books in Europe appeared during the mid-1400's. Since then, millions of books have been printed on almost every subject and in every written language. Young readers are familiar with storybooks, textbooks, workbooks, and comic books. We often consult almanacs, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and telephone books for reference.
We read novels, books of poetry, and printed versions of plays for entertainment.
The pages of a book are glued or sewed together along one side, called the spine or back. Two covers are joined by hinges to the spine. Books are either hardbound or softbound, depending on
the cover. Most hardbound books have covers made of cloth, plastic, or leather over cardboard. A
paper dust jacket is often added to protect the cover. Softbound books, called paperbacks, have
paper covers. Usually, the book title and other information appear on a book's spine and front cover
as well as on its dust jacket.
Inside the front cover of a typical book is a collection of pages called the preliminary material. The material begins with a blank or decorated end paper, followed by the half-title page. The recto (front
side) of this page carries the book's title. The verso (back of the page) may be blank, or may carry a list of other books by the same author. Throughout the book, the verso is always an even-numbered page and the recto is always odd-numbered.
The title page carries the full title of the book and the author's name on the recto. It also carries the imprint, which is the place and date of publication and the name of the publisher or company issuing
the book. The verso of the title page contains additional publication information and a statement of copyright, which is a notification that the book's contents are the property of the author or publisher.
In the earliest printed books, the information now carried on the title page appeared at the end of
the book in a statement called the colophon. The illustration that faces the title page is called the frontispiece.
The preface follows the title page. In the preface, the author discusses various aspects of the
creation of the book. The table of contents usually comes at the end of the preliminary material. It lists in order the book's main topics or the headings of the individual units and their page numbers.
The text is the main part of the book. The text is usually divided into separate parts called chapters
or books. The text may also include illustrations. In many books, several sections follow the text.
The appendix contains notes, charts, tables, lists, or other detailed information discussed in the text. Many books have an index, which lists in alphabetical order important subjects, names, and places in
the text. The index gives the page number where the reader can find these items in the text.
Finally, some books have a bibliography that lists sources used by the author in writing the book. The bibliography also lists additional sources on subjects in the text.

Learn How To Effectively Persuade Others 

Through Writing

Writing a persuasive essay can be creative and fun. It is one of the writing formats that are covered in the English Composition course. Following a few basic guidelines can help you write an influential and convincing essay. First, you must understand the purpose for writing persuasively. This style of writing gives reasons, with supporting material, to convince the reader to take a specific action.
To commence, you must determine the purpose or goal of the essay. You can ask and answer questions like "What action do I want to persuade people to take? Why is this action important to me?" It is also essential that you know who the audience will be. Once you have answered these questions and selected your goal, you are ready to write the body.
Introductions are extremely powerful. Effective introductions do more than state the goal. If properly written, it can command your reader to sit up and pay attention. An authoritative introduction can be written in a few different ways. Ask a question - This tactic stimulates the reader's mind and forces him or her to make an attempt to answer a question. Describe a scene - This appeals to the reader's imagination and emotions. Make a startling statement - This is intended to shock the reader with a surprising fact.
Supporting information gives your argument credibility, so include strong reasons that back up your goal. It is best to elaborate on each reason, supplementing them with facts and examples, not opinions. Facts give information that can be proved. Explain why the reader should do what you suggest. It is a good idea to list specific reasons as to why the reader should support your goal.
Use various techniques to make your reasons convincing. First, contemplate how the reader might disagree with your reasons. Second, anticipate and answer possible objections within the essay. Third, appeal to the reader's sense of fairness. Fourth, link your reasons to ideas the reader already has about what is right and what is wrong. Fifth, persuade through emotions. Lastly, connect your reasons to feelings you and the reader may share.
Your argument is your reasons, which are supported by detailed facts and examples. Be careful to organize your argument so that it is convincing and persuasive. You can either start with your most important reason, to gain the reader's attention. Or, end the argument with the most important reason in order to leave the reader thinking. Be sure to state your reasons in the topic sentences.
Conclusions are just as powerful as introductions, so you will want to make the conclusion forceful. This can be in the form of a personalized appeal to call the reader to action. You can use a thought-provoking end warning, predicting what might happen if action is not taken. Or, you can wrap up your argument with an unusual or interesting comparison.

A Successful Speech

Key Elements to a Successful Speech

A successful speech has a number of key components. It has the power to capture the attention of people and to keep them emotionally involved even after the story has come to its conclusion.
Writing a successful speech is difficult. Few people are capable of captivating the attention of the audience and making the entire presentation intriguing.
A successful speech has to be short enough, original, personalized and provoking an emotional response. Sounds easier said than done. To write a successful speech, you need to put your heart, soul and creativity in it. Knowing the audience well enough is another important component.
Originality
A cliché has the power to spoil the best of speeches. At the same time, writing an original speech can be challenging.
Staying away from clichés is one of the most important components of a successful speech. It has to be written in your own way and it has to tell your side of the story. Trying to utilize a writing model and choosing words that are atypical for your own speech will interfere with your success.
Clichés are widely known and people will never get surprised or emotionally touched by a speech that is full of commonplace phrases.
Sense of Humor
Some of the best speeches will make people laugh. A clever joke and a funny line are much more powerful than a wise and abstract statement.
Everyday life is troubling and difficult. People have many problems to worry about. A humorous speech will make them feel good and it will touch their hearts in a way that no other presentation can.
Use your sense of humor. Still, you need to be careful with jokes. Rude jokes, sexual content or ones that focus on ethnic traits and stereotypes should be kept out of the speech. The sense of humor used needs to be witty, subtle and positive.
Personalization
Some people believe that a good speech needs to address general issues that will be understood by the average listener. This understanding is 100 percent wrong.
A great speech has to be personalized. The more specific it is, the better. Your speech is your chance to address issues of interest rather than common topics. Pick an angle that is unique, personal and very special.
Even if you have to speak of common issues, you can do it in your own way. Select something unusual, a tiny detail that can become the focus of a very original and unique speech. Being afraid to put your thoughts and ideas in it signifies creating a mediocre speech.
Brevity
Great speeches are short. By default, long and meandering speeches will get people bored and losing interest.
Say what you have to say and once you are done, just stop. Three to four paragraphs will do just fine in terms of presenting your ideas, getting the audience involved and delivering a great conclusion.
Even if a long speech sounds fancy, try to refrain from falling into that trap. People have a short attention span. Managing to capture their attention is far from keeping them involved throughout the speech.
A successful speech has to be original, personalized and presented in your own special way. As long as you are brave enough to make the speech your own, it will be a major success.
