Why is this not a dream?

With Love
I live near an elderly couple who are continually telling me that their children were the only thing that kept their marriage together. I have witnessed them fighting and arguing, and I would have agreed with them if it weren't for their children. They must have split up a long time ago.

The part I don't get is that when one person is in agony, the other person feels that suffering as well and makes sure to relieve their other half; similarly, when one person needs assistance, the better half is prepared to provide the greatest care possible. Why do they care what the other half is going through if they don't love each other and are only staying for their children?

After all these years, either they haven't realised how crucial the other spouse is or they simply refuse to embrace the truth because they still remember their past transgressions. They have yet to discover the bond they truly share in their hearts.

I have been there. Have you, really?

 You must definitely be in pain. You have definitely been in bliss. You know that feeling when your heart feels like a bubble that is going to explode from just the slightest hint of both. You've probably felt your heart turn stone, tasted rust, and sat there, clicking your tongue again and again, tasting that taste each and every time it wanted you to vomit. That, and you have also had a belly full of butterflies when breathing has been a joy. It wasn’t the breathing that would make you shake when you exhaled; no, it was the one that came along with joy, calm, and cold. Now forget everything I just said and turn on the fan. Sit on the floor and put your back against something hard. Straighten up your back and let my words try to make you float. Close your eyes and sit in that classic convertible. She has black paint and deep cherry red leather seats. Feel your hands on that thin steering wheel. Feel the cold air on your face as you cruise down a two-lane road with nothing but clo

  In September 2015, members of the UN Sustainable Development Summit adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development with 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Goal 11 is Sustainable Cities and Communities and is about making cities and human settlements sustainable. Outline one or two of the key challenges to the success of sustainable cities and the most effective solutions. You may wish to relate the challenges and solutions to your specific subject area and/or to a specific city/cities or area of the world.    The UN Sustainable Development Summit strive on making the global cities a better place to live in. A sustainable city is one that is planned to have a resilient environment for its current population while also taking into account the quality of life for future generations. The rapid urbanization and the unplanned growth are the two key challenges to the success of sustainable cities. The term "urbanization" describes the large-scale population shift

Who are you?

Letter to my Juliet Here you go, Five days have gone by and I didn't know. The last letter I wrote to you was from the bottom of my heart, but you did not respond to it. I hope you're doing fine. I've started to believe that you were only in my imagination, but I saw our pictures today and you existed at that time frame. You could just tell me that you'll never talk to me again, that you're not dying to meet me, that we were never friends. That it is irrelevant to you. I'm doing fine. Things are moving, maybe in my head or maybe actually. I've started driving. I can come to meet you if you want to meet me too. My hair isn't growing, it's shorter than the last you saw. You know, couldn't keep up with the horrible environment here, had to cut something if not the veins. I forgot that I had promised you no self-torture, but guess what? I don't need to self torture anymore. It has found its way, so by not even trying, it's happening. Let me
