College time was fun, but when it was actually happenning I hated it.

Friendship is like the relation between the hands and eyes.

THE LOVE
"The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnamable is the eternally real," . So, if you focus on the name, then you are likely to lose the actual substance and essence of it.Basically “LOVE” is a unique feeling that can’t be defined if we really live it. On the contrary it can be defined with all its technicalities for all other pur...  more...
