Riddles

 

The man who invented it doesn’t want it. The man who bought it doesn’t need it. The man who needs it doesn’t know it. What is it?

 

Throw it off the highest building, and I’ll not break. But put me in the ocean, and I will.

1 What  am I?

What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?

2 What am I?

You use a knife to slice my head and weep beside me when I am dead. What am I?

3 What am I?

Tough one! Pronounced as one letter,
And written with three,
Two letters there are,
And two only in me.
I’m double, I’m single,
I’m black, blue, and gray,
I’m read from both ends,
And the same either way.
What am I?Eye

55 Inspiring Quotes That CAPTURE Your Wacky, Wonderful Friendships

Contributor

Love

Where would you be without your BFF?

Childhood friends. School friends. Neighborhood friends. College friends. Work friends. Best friends. Boyfriends. Girlfriends.

We work our entire lives building friendships. From preschool, where we all learn that “it takes a friend to make a friend,” through adulthood, where we mingle at bars and water coolers, we crave closeness with other human beings.

We just need to know that someone out there “gets us.”

Whether we have a small group of close friends or an expanded group of personalities, each of our friendships brings something new to our lives, inspiring us to see the world a totally different way, giving us a new shoulder to lean on, and a new cheerleader to root us on.

Friendships come in all sorts of forms: serious ones, like the college friend you discuss politics with, silly ones, like the squad you do Halloween with, chill ones, like your wine and Netflix buddy. Some friendships even turn into something more.

Each friendship offers something totally unique — and irreplaceable. Each friendship ultimately makes us who we are.

This is why we spend so much time cultivating these relationships and learning how to be a good friend. This is why we show up after breakups, at graduations, at weddings, and at funerals. This is why near or far, our friends hold a special place in our hearts forever.

We all know, a true friend is hard to find. So when you do find one, hang on tight! It also doesn’t hurt to let your best friends know every now and then just how much they mean to you. These {{ friendship }} {{ quotes }} perfectly describe the beauty of friendship.

So go ahead and share one with your sister from another mister or brother from another mother. (And maybe learn a few important lessons long the way about being a good friend.)

Here are 55 inspiring quotes to share with those people in your life whose friendship is special beyond compare:

1. “Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: ‘What! You too? I thought I was the only one.”

My hobby is reading

My hobby is reading. I like to read books in my free time. I like funny stories, fairy tales, and poems for children.

I like to read fairy tales very much. My favourite fairy tale is “The Snow Queen” by Hans Christian Andersen. I have read it several times. Gerda is my favourite fairy-tale character.

I usually read in the evening before sleep. I also like to read in a garden or in a park, sitting

on a bench.

I like to play with my dog

My dog’s name is Red. Red is an Irish setter. He is clever and friendly. He is also very active.

Red loves to go for a walk, to run, to swim, and to play with a ball or a stick.

When I’m doing my homework, Red just lies on the carpet in my room, sleeping or watching me and sighing once in a while.

When I say “Let’s go for a walk now”, Red jumps up from the floor, wagging his tail and barking joyfully.

Then he rushes to the hall and brings his collar and leash. It always makes me laugh.

Hey Merche,

Matt Alesevich here, I saw that you entered your name and class on the spreadsheet, but we didn’t have enough kids to send letters to your class. You can still, however, send letters to the kids in Skaramagas. However, as I am no longer there (I am in Istanbul now), I can’t guarantee that any letters will get sent back. It could still be an opportunity for your kids to write them!

Good luck!

It’s up to you! Here is the address for the school if you decide to write. Any questions, let me know!
