Truth
or Myth
Nine
Lives Cats
It is believed cats have nine lives
because they can survive from many fatal situation, but where does the saying ‘cats
have nine lives’ come from? Nobody really knows the origin of this myth,
exactly, but there are number of possibilities - from William Shakespeare to
ancient Egypt. In the play Romeo and
Juliet, the bard refers to the nine lives of cats. Meanwhile an old proverb of
unknown origin claims: “A cat has nine lives. For three he plays, for three he
strays and for the last three he stays.” In ancient Egypt, cat were treated as
sacred animals and were worshiped as divine creatures with psychic or
supernatural powers, so some think the myth could have originated there as if
fits in with their view of cats. But, it’s more than likely that the myth has
developed over time due to cats’ ability to get themselves out of sticky
situations, with their agility and dexterity. Overtime, moggies have survived
fall from great heights and even earthquakes, so it’s not surprising they have
earned their nine lives title. In fact, like the rest of us, cats only have one
life.

How
can we make the wold better place? This question has been asking many times
until nowadays. Some people believe that education will make people become more
intelligent. Indeed, that is an undeniable idea, but everything in this world always
has two sides both good and bad as does an education.
A
real pain in the neck is after people acquired more knowledge, some people
might use their talents to create many pathways and solve a lot of problems ,e.g.,
some people choose to word as politicians and establish campaigns help people
find their jobs. As a result, everyplace becomes more peaceful, and people will
stay alive in the happy beautiful world. Such as a utopia idea. If people
consider everything more carefully, they will acknowledge that education has a
double-edge effect because knowledge can be used to find gaps in any laws, and
greed shall be fulfilled ;as a consequence, a number of crime will gradually
increase. Finally, the world will become the worst place.
In
fact, everything depends on points of views. In peaceful countries, many
opportunities shall be offered by governments meanwhile less choices can be
chosen in conflict countries. In addition, Some people might acknowledge committing
a crime is illegal because of laws whilst some people might have no chance to
learn what a crime is.
In conclusion, the world shall have
no opportunity to become better as long as people ignore a way to understand
each other.

When
the sun sets down,
The
moon shall rise instead.
Wondering
how vast the sky is.
No

that
place shall remain tranquil.
No

the
great scarlet otori shall guide them.
No
matter how long time has already passed,
All
wishes shall be granted.
Such
as a mysterious place.
Such
as a place of promise.

Desolation
World
Once
in a blue moon, a new breeze was blown upon a tiny farm located among tranquil
natural. A sound of crystal river was so beautiful as a rhythm from heaven. It
was completely soft and kept all livings calm down. Furthermore, all flowers in
the garden around the farm had already bloomed. Their colours made that place
more wonderful. It could be said it was the most suitable place for new
offspring.
Day by day, a new season
had arrived, and all livings had always been waiting for this moment. That
night was absolutely cold. The lonely moon on the sky was so brilliant as if it
was a symbol of new souls. Indeed many new souls were brought into this world.
Whenever new offspring were born, all animals always celebrated without any
doubts. How could they nurture those lives? Obviously, love was the most
important thing they needed.
The was a family
consisted three goats ,i.e., a buck, a doe, and a buckling. The buckling wished
this happiness shall remain forever. Unfortunately, there was an essential mission
for a buck and a doe, so a buckling was left behind.
“When will you come back?” asked by a buckling.
“It will be a blink of an eye, my dear.” answered by a buck.
“Please, be patient and listen the others until we come back, okay?” added by a doe.
Time by time, a buckling had always watched and learnt how to stay alive among many lives. Even though no matter how many times it asked the others where its parents are, no one answers that question. That doubt made a hole in a little heart.
“Should I obey the others as my parents told me?”
“When will you come back?” asked by a buckling.

“Should I obey the others as my parents told me?”
Someday, that buckling
had manged to sneak into a forbidden part of farm; as a result, an answer
appeared. It knew suddenly that its parents will not come back anymore because
all members in its family were sacrificed to some higher creatures as
offerings. A lots of questions appeared in its head, so it decided to go back
to take a rest. After coming back, it was told something significant. It had to
prepare for some essential missions, as all members in its family did. It had
realised that its family was nothing but only an offering, so it decided to
escape from that unravel world in that night even though it had no idea what
waiting in the future.
No
matter how heartless people have become, I will never become like them.
No
matter how rotten societies have turned into, I shall find my place.
No
matter how cruel this world is, I wish to stay alive.
