Lovely Town

Once upon a time there was a small town by the sea. It was

very beautiful, with clean blue sea, sand as soft as silk and

wonderful forests along the coast. They called it Lovely. People

lived in it peacefully and happily. They fished, took vacationers

into their homes, and offered them walks in the forest nearby

or boat trips in the sea. They offered them food made from

local plants and animals.

One day the residents of Lovely got together and decided to change their town by turning

it into a big and attractive tourist centre, which they imagined would give them a chance

to make more money and have better lives. They cut down the forest and started building

new hotels in its place. They also built wide roads along the beach, which destroyed the

sand dunes and the plants growing on them. Many tourists drove their cars to Lovely,

making the town a noisy place. Every day lorries brought food and goods from

distant places to meet the demands of the tourists, and rubbish began piling up.

Lovely was growing all the time. Almost nothing seemed to have remained from

the small town — it had changed beyond recognition. People stopped thinking of

Lovely as a nice place for a holiday, and many stopped coming. The people who lived

in Lovely started to miss the town as it used to be.

One evening a stranger appeared in the central square, where most of the local people

gathered in the evening. He stayed there for a long time, listening to the people talk,

and in the end he told them the following story:

Once upon a time there was a special hen. Every single day it laid a golden egg, shining

like a little sun in a corner of the coop. The owner of the hen checked the weight of the

eggs daily. He kept complaining they were not bigger and said: “Maybe I should just kill

that hen. There must be a treasure in its body. If I take it out, then I will be the richest

man in the world.”

After hesitating for some time he finally made up his mind: he killed the bird

and can you imagine his shock to find out that the inside of the hen was just like any other!

He started pulling his hair in despair and crying bitterly, but everything was in vain.

The miser had lost both the eggs and the hen.

The stranger looked at the saddened townspeople and said,

“Those who rush to riches will often end with nothing.”

This story reminds me of Starlight Crystal by Christopher Pike:

Editorial Reviews

Midwest Book Review

It is two hundred years in the future and 18 year old Paige Christian has been given a chance to join the crew of the Traveler, a special spaceship designed to circle the solar system at near light speed. One day aboard the Traveler is equal to ten years on Earth. It is a time capsule as well as a spaceship whose purpose is to study the changes on earth throughout two centuries, and then return home. Something awful happens to the ship and the Earth and the years pass, billions of them, and still Paige Christian lives, and remembers all those she left behind. Until the day she finally does come home to a world and a future no human being could have imagined! Christopher Pike is a mastery storyteller with a long list of outstanding teen novels to his credit. The Starlight Crystal continues to demonstrate his skills at conjuring up an exciting tale that will engage young readers ages 14 and up.

Things are not getting better around the world in fact it’s getting from worse to worst. Too many natural catastrophes..too many deaths..And it’s just the beginning.I’ve heard so much about sustainable development but i think its just something we’re making up we’re just pretending;alright some might argue that they really do care but in the end it’s the majority that counts and that majority doesn’t even know how critical the actual moment is.Yes there are sensitization campaigns, talks, adverts etc etc But do we care?Oh yes people are going to be on earth so many years from now unless we are hit by something from outer space and end up like the dinosaurs;evolution will go on as is already the case with the brains getting bigger;everything that is being done today is in the name of development and yes we all want easy things but we do not have any control over nature as people tend to think.We are heading towards a dead Earth.

yeah i know that he’s cute hehe  ;0)

Today, the Victorian era is long since passed but we still turn to flowers when we want to express our true feelings in a personal manner. Roses can sometimes say more than thousand words; they can apologise after a fight when we feel miserable and tongue tied and they can offer consolation at a funeral when words are not enough. The true meaning of rose colors is still not forgotten, even though many of us speak only a fraction of that rich language developed long ago. Why not enhance your vocabulary and start sending your loved ones affectionate messages in the form of beautiful roses – just like the Romans and Victorian lovers did.

• The meaning of white roses is perceived as pure and bright, and by giving away a white rose a suitor says “You are heavenly” and “I respect and look up to you” to the object of his affection.
• The meaning of Red Roses is love while a bouquet of red and white roses is a symbol of unity. The same thing is true for a bouquet of white roses with red edges. It is a signal of loyalty and kinship. “You and I are one” and “We stand united”. Just like the red rose, the purple roses symbolises love but the meaning of purple roses are more a symbol of enchantment and love and first sight than the ever lasting love represented by red roses.
• The meaning of Pink roses are generally viewed as a symbol of refinement and elegance. They have however also been used to send more elaborate messages, where the different pink shades were attributed different meanings. The meaning of roses with a deep pink or cerise tone was gratitude and appreciation, while the meaning of a rose with a very light pink shade was sympathy.
• A bouquet of only yellow roses means “try to care”.
• The meaning of Orange roses are enthusiasm and eagerness, a new beginning. The meaning of Peach Roses on the other hand is that something has gone well, a deal has been reached.
• A deep burgundy color on a rose means “Unconscious beauty” or “You are so beautiful without even knowing it”.
• Green roses have existed since 1856 and are a symbol of fertility and fruitfulness.
• The meaning on Black roses is death and new beginnings
• Hybrid Tea roses mean “I will never forget you”.
• The meaning of Blue Roses are that someone is mysterious.
• The meaning of the so called Sweetheart roses is naturally conveyed in their name.
• Pale rose colours have generally been a sign of friendship.
• The rose color meaning is not the only thing capable of sending a message in a rose bouquet. If you choose to send rosebuds instead of blooming roses, it symbolizes youth and innocent love. Pink and red rose buds say “You are young and lovely” or “I love your youthfulness”, while white rosebuds means “Too young to love”. The moss rosebud was used as a first confession of love.
• A full blown rose that is placed together with two rose buds will signify secrecy.
• If white roses have been allowed to whither it means “Beauty is fleeting”.
• If two roses are wired together to form one single stem it is a signal of engagement and coming marriage.
• A crown consisting of roses is a symbol of virtue. Crowns formed from roses have been used at weddings to signify purity.
• Rose leaves symbolises hope and optimism.
• The meaning of roses can also be affected by their number. A single rose is a symbol of simplicity, and one single red rose is a well known way of saying “I love you”. If you instead combine one red rose with several yellow roses, it will stand for joviality and be an invitation to jolliness and fun.
