I went to the woods because I wanted to
live deliberately.
I wanted to live deep and suck out all the
marrow of life!
To put to rout all that was not life.
And not, when I came to die, discover that
I had not lived.
This is the poetry of American poet Walt
Whitman as well as the opening chapter of the story 'Death Poets
Society'.
It's a tad depressing but a
perfect ending. It didn't need anything more. You didn't need to

until Mr Stone required us to do it to write passages in
English. So I took advantage of this opportunity to improve my
writing skills as well as self-expression_r.
Many friends of mine opened blog and space
here and there. It's a window for me to know about their living

floating life, like a dream…T
