Hmmm, this is really not easy to answer. Well, I think my parents do not need a special thing to be proud of her daughter. They are proud without any reason and I think this is, like it should be when you love your children. But certain, my parents are proud of me, because I am very talented in drawing or creating special cakes, which developed to a little side job meanwhile and it is a very nice hobby for me. But this talent, you have it or you don't. Something like this is a special gift, that can't be learned, but we were blessed with that. Just, we can improof ourselves. So we never should stop to force ourselves with trying everything. ;-)

Well, in my opinion, people are never too old to learn something new? It doesn't matter how old you are. It keeps your brain in shape and makes you feel younger. (Of course, only if you are healthy and have no mental diseases, like Alzheimer or so on.) I started to study English 10 years ago and I never thought I would get this level like I stick around right now. I am 54 years old now and of course I recognize that it is getting harder on me to keep things in my brain. That's why I have to be more focused when I do something. My law is, just never give up. ;-) Thanks for your correction in advance and stay healthy !!!

Hello all together I want to tell you a wonderful thing that happened in my life last weekend. My daughter and her boyfriend visited us in our home on Saturday. After dinner my daughter left the table for a moment and came back a few minutes later. She took a seat again, they looked at each other and then they said together:" We have to tell you something." So my daughter continued to talk alone:" Mummy, daddy, he has asked me on my birthday last Saturday, if I want to marry him, if I want to be his wife and I said YES!" Then she raised her hand and showed us the ring. It was an awesome moment, though I had the supposition already, because when we called her on her birthday to congratulate, she mentioned that he prepared a perfect birthday with airballons on her body when she woke up and many other things that he has done on that day for her. So I thought he might had this in his mind to do on her birthday. By the way her face was filled with this special beam of joy when she entered our house and she hugged me so tightly that I was almost sure it happened. But maybe it was just the instict of a mother, I don't know. In any event, it was a wonderful moment and we are all happy. Thank you for the correction!

About the world! Every Morning when I open my eyes I am scared to turn on the radio, to listen the news, what happened during the last night. Unfortunately I most of time don't worry for nothing. What's wrong with the world? Why people need to fight everywhere and all the time? Just because people do have different religion faith, or the skin color is not the right one? Who determine which religion, or skin color is the right one? We finally have to consider that in every body flows blood and beats a heart. And what color does the blood have? Yes right, it is red!!!! It doesn't matter if we are white, black or yellow. So we are ALL THE SAME and I think it is finally time to accept this. We do have a saying here. "Some humans are like animals." But i don't agree with that. Humans are much worse than animals. Animals kill because they are hungry. Humans kill because they are greedy to get more and more, or they even kill just for having fun. How sick is that??? Sorry that I write about this sad topic, but unfortunately when I look around, then it is exactly this topic that keeps me busy. I promise next time I will write a nicer article. Thanks for correcting my task. ;-)

save or safe Hi there! Would you please so kind and explain the difference between "save" and "safe". I never know which one is to use and I always mix it up. Thanks for help ;-)

So horrible!!! I want to write about a horrible tragedy, which happened in Austria close to Vienna and bothers and shocks me a lot. It is about a topic, which is in every mouth here at the moment. "Refugees!!!" Imagine, there were over 70 persons, penned like animals, in a motor-lorry. They all found their death in this truck. It was found by roadmen and they noticed that liquid of putrefecation was running out of the truck. It is unimaginable how these people suffered before they died. Their death agony must have lasted for many days. I don't understand how people can be able to do this, how these kind of people can look at itself in the mirror every morning? I get a goose bumps when I only think on these poor humans. They hoped to find a better way to live here and they let them die like useless brute. Nobody deserves such a treahtment. I just hope they will find the facilitators.

About shooting stars! I want to write about something wonderful today, that the world had to offer and I experienced this last week together with my daughter. I needed to be almost 48 years old to see this rare event for the first time. They forecasted:" This will be the night of shooting stars." It was a very warm night, so my daughter and I laid on our sunbeds, which we put on our terrace and watched the sky. We talked about God and the world while we waited for the first one. Well, so when the first appeared, my daughter shouted:" Mummy look, there is one!" But imagine this, I was just rubbing my eye, so I missed it. So we both laughed so much then. But soon after, they appeared one by one. This really was one of the most wonderful moments that we spent together. It was a very special and emotional "mother-daughter-thing" I will never forget it and I guess, or I rather hope she will always remember to it as well.
