[Book] #18. The Giver by Lois Lowry - To Become the Master of Your Own Life: Extremely Thrilling, Incredibly Frightening.

@bree1042: You don't need to worry. There's no pain, no sadness. You don't have to be responsible for your choices. Because you don't get to choose anything. Everything is already set and generously given to you with much consideration of the Committee. Is this Heaven? Or is this Hell? Bookreview of "The Giver".

Too Close, 2017 - No Rule of Thirds (Part X)

@mrblinddraw: I drew this image entirely zoomed in. It's based on nobody in particular. I wanted to do a Super-Ultra-Close-Up. It was a weird challenge painting off the edge of the page and trying to make it feel like the image continues beyond.

The Wunderkind of the South

@roused: She was only 23 when her first novel was published. It was critically acclaimed and reached the top of the bestseller lists. Back when Time magazine still mattered, her first novel was included on Times' 100 best English-language novels published since 1923—the beginning of TIME. Yet there is a good chance many of you might never have heard of Carson McCullers, or her first novel, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter.

Keep Them Pining: Generating Evergreen Content

@jrswab: Well thought out articles are one key to growing your blog but there is another door that needs unlocked. The key to this door is "evergreen content". This post type is the best to write since it will be relevant today, tomorrow, and a year from now.

Second language learning and spicy curry

@alvinauh : This is a post where it draws a comparison between second language teaching and trying out spicy curry cut the first time. It is meant to help others see the problems teachers face when teaching a second language to students.

Points To Consider When Choosing A Business Partner

@jaff8: Bad patnership have had adverse effects in so many big businesses. It could eventually lead to separation and business crash. So it is important as entrepreneurs, to give attention to the kind of persons we make our business partners. A business partner could either break or make you - make the business boom or make it crash.

Information Science – Information Behaviour

@fingersik: We all know that every human being is different due to biological difference. The differences are not only attributes, skills and weaknesses (and the rest I didn’t mention too:D), but also information behaviour. Information behaviour means, finding, processing, saving, transmitting, using and making connections in between the absorbed information.

My First Meal In Tokyo

@howtostartablog: Narita Airport (Terminal 1) is quite huge and they have a shopping area within the airport. They have lots of convenience stores there in case you wanna buy some home. In Japan, many restaurants have models of food outside of their shop. It looks very realistic and definitely increases your appetite!

Europe's First Beer Fountain

@teachblogger: Imagine a fountain where you can get beer? Sounds like a crazy idea? Let me tell you something. It is possible in Slovenia!

So much stuff going on everything needs a good smudging.

@bearone: Smudging (also known as Saging) is an ancient method of cleansing a person or a space, dispelling negative energy, spiritually protecting yourself, your aura & your home using a simple ritual or ceremony. It is also sometimes used for healing. Burning sage is one of the oldest and purest methods of cleansing a person, group of people or space. While Native American sage burning is the most commonly recognized form of it today, it has nevertheless been a shared practice in other cultures too. Not only do other cultures have their own practices, they also have their own preferred herbs or resin, or for the people of the Amazon the Palo Santo (Sacred Wood) is their traditional choice for their burning ceremonies.
