Dear God, thank you for taking care of me all the way. Thank you for teaching me everything I need to know about this world. Though it can hurt so badly, it does make me wiser and broaden my horizon with every cut, every wound, every salt spread on it. And I fully realize that I am the master of my own lifeline. I will never condemn you, no matter how hard I have fallen. Dear God, thank you again for bringing me up into the person I am.
Thank you that I can always experience wonderful things that save me everytime from falling from grace. It was also you, who taught me how a single little act of thoughtfulness can brighten up my life in just a snap of fingers. I realize now I don't need any spell nor potions. My love, faith, family and friends are my magic. They keep my world intact. They are my fort to keep all harms away. Dear God, thank you for them and I pray that my magic will be forever strong.

A Bond of Two Souls in Love between Thick Concrete Buildings
A text for my newly taken English class:
Marriage is still a very important issue for me. It’s not just an arrangement written on a sheet of paper like many of us nowadays think. For me it has big emotional and psychological values. Getting married means to make a commitment as a couple to cherish each other for the rest of our lives, and to be for each other in times of joy and trouble. It also means that we are doing everything with good intentions, and that we are not afraid of taking responsibilities for each other. It means that we want to have children and raise them together as a family. It means that we have chosen to love our partner for the rest of our lives. There won’t be a sentence like “I don’t love you anymore” or “I have lost my love for you”, because we both try to preserve and nourish our seeds of love in every moment we breathe. Marriage is more than just a piece of paper; it is a union, a bond of two souls in love.
It is a pity that this kind of thinking is no longer a modern opinion. People tend to get practical and forget how beautiful it is to live their romantic side. A marriage institution is becoming more a burden than a blessing, and a relationship means two people who like to be together because they are sexually attracted to each other. When the attraction and the fun are gone, and so is the relationship. No wonder it is more practical for them to move on and seek for new happiness with a new partner without the complexity of marriage. They can just leave everything behind and don’t need to take any responsibility for what they have caused in other people’s lives. Relationships are getting nomadic. People’s hearts are getting colder.
A marriage might have lost its importance in the hearts of many people, but I can still see a lot of individuals who still think conservatively. Not just heterosexuals but also homosexuals in their own ways. Many homosexuals also yearn to seal their love in front of everything which is holy for them or in front of everyone who is important for them. So in my opinion they are somehow still “old fashioned”. As long as there are still people out there who believe in the beauty of a marriage life, I still think that I shouldn’t lose faith on the warmth of this society.
My comment: a little bit cliché, don't you think?

To Trick Time
How time zaps with an incredible force. Like a hurricane, twirling and swirling rapidly, taking everything with it in every direction it wants to go. You just have to go whirling together under its compulsion. You have got no other choice. You can not just stay and sit watching the ongoing tumult. (Bless those buddhist monks for being able to part their souls from their bodies and to prove out Einstein's relativity theory!!! There is not a concept of time as an in-one-direction-flying-streaming object. TIMES are flying everywhere they like.
Buddhist monks are really the most ecologically friendly types that have ever set their tiny feets on earth. The reason is because of this thing they believe and brag to exist, the thing called reincarnation. It is all about recycling. If you can still use the departed soul, why dump it and create a new one? It is really a sick idea to be so extravagant. I think a God would not be such a wasteful guy. Nor girl.
Reincarnation also means, that you can live forever. So long as it takes. So long as this blue ball named earth still exists. Or maybe so long as that powerful Element sometimes called God still exists. What a wonderful thing to think of! Of course you also have to expect finding yourself as a worm after your death if you were not a good person in your first life. But hey, you get to live! Perhaps if you lead a life as a pious worm, then you would be able to be reborn as a human being again, and of course with a touch of luck, you could remember your past lives.
Almost perfect. It would be better if you could also be together again with the one you love. Oh eternal love! Perhaps if you love someone so very much, your soul would be so very strong to seek out your loved one and unite with him in your second life, or your third, or your thirty fifth. It depends on the strength of your love, perhaps. How should I know? I might have to go to Tibet and ask the buddhist monks there, before time(s) overrun(s) me.
Maybe you can think of something?
