hard feeling A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face. The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: "TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE. " They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one, who had been slapped, got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him. After the friend recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: "TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE. " The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why? " The other friend replied: "When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it. " My friend hurt me yesterday. It was wormwood to me. I can get it out of my mind. If there were a beach here I would write my hard feelings down. But there is a beautiful park near my office. And there is my habutual bench under the chest-tree, I'm going there now. LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND, AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE

I loved you.. Last night I was invited to the exhition of Russian Painter I.K Makarov in the Pushkin Museum. The original portraits of members of the Russian nobility were exhibited there . Among them - the Sheremetevs, Dolgorukovs, Tyutchevs, Olsufyevs, Baryatinskys and others. The leading place in the exhibition is devoted to women's and children's portraits, the artist wrote them the most readily. The worship, reverence for the beauty of the artist and the moral perfection of a woman is read in many of his works. Special place in the exposition is the portraits of the great Russian poet AS Pushkin's close relatives - his wife (when she was already married for the second P.P. Lansky) and children Mary, Gregory, Natalia. I walked about the museum rooms, looked at these portraits and read to myself Pushkin's poems. I loved you... I loved you and this love by chance, Inside my soul has never fully vanished; No longer shall it ever make you tense; I wouldn't want to sadden you with anguish. I loved you speechlessly and wildly, By modesty and jealousy was stressed; I loved you so sincerely and so mildly, As, God permit, may love you someone else.

"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, died yesterday. "Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon. July 1969 AD. We came in peace for all mankind." 'It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small." We are sad for his death.

Amy Winehouse By the anniversary of the tragic death of Amy Winehouse, which is today July 23, a fan of her work has made a portrait of the singer from the words of her songs.The portrait includes the texts of all 24 songs. It took the "artist" 30 hours to complete the portrait. The author has created a wonderful portrait to honor the memory of Amy Winehouse and pay tribute to her talent. However, she did not use any paint, the portrait consists solely of the lyrics. Amy was only 27 years old . Her fan's name is Annmarie Wright. I guess all Amy's fans recall her today.

The Ocean Is Worth to Tell What a Man IS. Life is all a tragedy, the outcome is a foregone conclusion. (from the preface to the edition of 1948). The writer can not remain indifferent to the incessant brazen, murderous, filthy crime, which is a war. (from the preface to the edition of 1948). In the old days they often wrote about how sweet and beautiful to die for their homeland. But in modern warfare there is nothing sweet and beautiful. You will die like a dog for no reason. When something comes to an end ... in life, whether good or bad, remains empty. But the void left after bad, filled with itself. Void after the good can only be filled by finding something better ... Fascism is a lie uttered by the bandits. Why boring people are quite happy, but smart and interesting people are in the end manage to poison the lives of themselves and loved ones? Help me, Vicente. Help me, Felipe. Help me, Chucho. Help me, Arturo. And you, Enrique, help me ... help me be silent, Enrique. Help me to remain silent until the end, Vicente. If you are lucky and you lived in Paris in your early life, then, wherever you may be after it until the end of thy days It will stay with you, because Paris is a festival that is always with you. Have you remembered these great quotes? Yes, it's Hemingway. This great man was born on July 22..

"Where do the ducks in Central Park disappear?" Seventeen year old Holden Caulfield, who is in a sanatorium, recalls, "that crazy story that happened last Christmas," after which he "just did not give the ends," had been ill for a long time, and now undergoing treatment and soon hopes to return home. His memories begin with the day when he left Pencey, private high school in Egerstaune, Pennsylvania. In fact he went against his will - he was expelled for academic failure. He realizes that he cannot come home and tell his parents that he was expelled. He sits in a taxi and went to the hotel. Along the way he asks his favourite question, which does not give him peace, "Where do the ducks in Central Park disapper, when the pond freezes over?" The taxi- driver, of course, surprised by the question and wondered whether it awsbthe laugh on him by the passenger. But this question is not fun, but rather, a manifestation of a loss of Holden Caulfield to the complexity of the world, rather than an interest in zoology. This world either oppresses him and draws. With people it would be hard, without them - unbearable. Only the youngest sister Phoebe, despite her small years, understands the state of her brother. It was in the conversation with Phoebe Holden expresses his dream: "I imagine like little kids playing in the evening in a huge field of rye. Thousands of kids, and there is not a single soul, not a single adult, except for me ... and my job - to catch the kids that they should not have broken into the abyss. " For 61 years the rebellious adolescent Holden Caufield has asked this question about the ducks which is clear to noone and wanted to save someone as the Catcher in the Rye. On the 16, July 1951 J.D. Salinger's "The Catcher in the Rye" was published and later became a classic.
