Can you see any grammatical mistakes? Is this text fine? Listen up. I am going to tell you a little story about happiness and sadness, hope and despair. I hope you don't mind that non of the characters mentioned in this story ever existed. This story has happened in the last century in a city called Nowhere. This city was pretty isolated from the rest of the word. You would probably tell me that it is nearly impossible nowadays to find a city which would be isolated from the rest of the world. Well, I respect your life experience but I have to assure you that this kind of cities still exists and it is not very rare. People of Nowhere lived pretty normal life they had Internet and cell phones. There was lots of shops in Nowhere so every resident of the city could buy food and clothes. Most of the people whom I had told this story argued with me. They usually replied that I had told them that the city of Nowhere was isolated but if it had Internet and phones it could not be recognised as an isolated city. "Well, it depends on how you define the word 'isolated'", am used to answer to them. The city of Nowhere was not surrounded by a wall, but by the strange coincidence all the residents were surrounded by a mental wall. If you were at there palace you would see why it is better to be surrounded with a wall, you would understand why all of this people decided to quit reality. You are going to say "Those people are crazy. Why are you telling me a story about crazy people?" and you would be wrong. I believe that we all are crazy. But we afraid to uncover our craziness, so it grows and grows until one day you understand that this craziness has grown huge. And you are starting to deny yourself instead of denying craziness. That is wonderful how little things can grow into a huge problems if you deny them. But I am not going to tell you about miracles which had happened to brains of the citizens of Nowhere.
