Quote of the day:

Trees are the most kindest things I know.They do no harm they simply grow.They are the ones who share their sorrow.We are the ones who everytime borrow.

Let us think more wisely.The result will show more greenery.The world is in our hands.Why not tie it with a friendship band.

You are doing nothing bad you are just saving the world.Keep in mind you have given your word.Say yes for saving trees.God will give you all that you please.

Mannhar Kaur 11 years old

Quote of the day:

I was standing on the beach looking across at England when I heard a voice say "are you coming? It's your last chance". I saw a sort of fishing boat that was picking up stragglers and I boarded it and lay back with my hands dangling in the water. I fell asleep and the next thing I knew I was at Dover.'

Romeo Jenkins, Royal Artillery


Riddle of the day:

I do not listen to reason, but I hear every siren's song and will try to steer us towards the rocks if you let me take the wheel. Who am I?

Answer will be revealed tomorrow.

Previous Riddle Answer:

It starts off light and easy to bear, yet the more you carry it with you, the heavier a burden it becomes.

A guilty conscience
