I love the websites banner and logo now. It makes the website professional and creative. It means something special. Gold is spiritual colour and represents literature.

That's so sad... I can relate to that because even my grandmother had to give away one dog... She got it when it was a small puppy and she had to give it away
Guys today I have a hole lessen where I can read any book I want. So I will be continue reading Magnus Chase and The Sword of Summer.
Sounds good lovely, enjoy your reading time! :) always good to have that free time to do what you want
And Aqsa, I can't have pets because we rent and the owner doesn't want us to have them. And even if we're allowed to, mum wouldn't let us because when she was young she had lots of pets and they eventually died and she would suffer a lot because she was attached to them. So she didn't want her children to suffer the same
Which is understandable but I still want one :(

Yes, it’s always devastating to lose a pet you’ve grown to love so much. Each time I say to myself I will never have another pet cause I don’t want to go through the heart break again but I end up getting one anyway. Loss is a part of life and although I understand your mother wanting to protect you from that pain, I don’t think it possible. At one time or another we all experience loss.... The other, positive, side of pain due to loss is love. You only experience so much pain because you had so many years of loving each other so very much and enjoying each other’s company...The care for a pet on the other hand demands a lot from you, not only time and energy but also money if they get sick for example. And you can never go away spontaneously without arranging someone to take care of him/her (which can be quite a challenge I can say).
So yes, it’s great to have a pet but it’s also quite a responsibility. I think a lot of people don’t realize just how much of a responsibility. And then they just give them up, selling them or even worse, abandoning them.
Although she often drives me crazy, I can’t imagine not having Seven around anymore. If you go to my profile pics, you can see her picture. I adopted her when she was 4 years old. Her owner got into a relationship, his girlfriend and Seven apparently didn’t get along so Seven had to go 😢
@Karen
Well I have the feeling you'll get one someday :)
The heartbreak is devastating but there's nothing like it tbh. I miss my cat a lot lot lot. But I loved every moment with him. Same goes for my other pets.

@Susy I'm glad she has you now :)
And yes it's quite a responsibility and unfortunately most people get tired of it. They are passionate about them for a week and then they can't afford to look after them like they should which is sad really.
I find it hard to get another pet cause I feel so guilty about it idk.

Yeah the way she would explain it, it's like having a baby, the responsibility is big and as a family, we travel a lot during our holidays, doing road trips and other fun activities and I can't imagine us doing that if we had a pet to take with us or have to find someone to look after it
It would be a great challenge for me to have a pet, but maybe one day
It's great that Seven has a wonderful owner like you Susan :) thanks for the information as well
And Aqsa, I agree it would be so hard to see your loved ones gone. But yeah at least you have beautiful memories to remember her by :)

I had a great time reading
Imagine this. A mystery story about a strawberry and a thriller story about a raspberry. To me that sounds like a good idea

As both my own experience and observer, I think people who randomly wants to become vegetarians put so much pressure of themselves. But you won't get comfortable if you just become vegetarian all at once. Planning and cutting-down-meat by stage is best option. I became a vegetarian as I became 16. But I didn't cut all meat at once because that could pressure of themselves. Note that I am a halal food consumer so eating pork was never in my life or my family history it is just that way. I personally would never eat it ever even if I wasn't a Muslim. What I did is that I cut off both lamb and beef when I was 12 because I just could not stand it and could not stand the sight of it. I was pollo-pescatarian since I was 12-13 years old. When I was 14-15 years old I became pescetarian because I had same opinion and reaction to chicken. I also consumed certain fishes at that time i.e. cod, salmon and sardines. But I cut that off when I was 16 years old and then I just became complete vegetarian who does not eat meat. I have observed numerous occasion where people just come with new years resolutions that they will become vegetarians. But then do not feel comfortable and end up breaking up quickly. People need to make realistic goals that they could manage. If you are planning to become a vegan all at once that is so much pressure times 10. I am still a vegetarian and I still would not cope if I did not consume dairy at once. I could if I wanted to but I have to do it when I suddenly feeling comfortable. People force themselves not just with vegetarianism. It is time we actually we made predictable and realistic goals.
Yeah Rumell some people are really vegerarian. But luckily i m not one of them. I think meat is part of nutritional requirements.As it contain enough protein and alot of its dietary value.Vegetables are also part of diet.As you know balanced diet is one which contain both.Being vegetrian is not bad but in this case certain dietary requirements must b subsituted.I onced saw a lamb which was cut infornt of me but as you know lamb and beef are halal so i think a muslim atleast shouldnot give such excuses. Being a muslim i have the opinoin we should atleast the things which are halal for us.I also saw some people avoiding dairy products such because of that it is made of cow milk.I really thought sometimes why people made such unjustifiable excuses. Milk is equally important like meat and vegetables are.Then in this case one day people ll also stop using vegetables because certain pesticides and insecticides are used while growing vegetables so i thought why not vegetables why meat and milk only. ?
