More Parks Are Needed

Park Place Townhouse Complex

In our modern cities green areas progressively loose ground to the steel and concrete buildings that we need so much for our development. But when we say development I think that we must take into consideration only the progressive and positive development. We people are product of the evolution of the Mother Nature. Concrete and steel structures do not exist naturally. We are making big mistake in our cities. They are quite a few places that preserve something close to the environment we had come from. I think parks and natural environment places must be much more than we have now. I do not know exactly what will happen if we do not have so, but I am quite sure we had burned the bridges to the places we have came from too soon.

Is the Art that Needs Education in Order to Be Understand Really an Art

I am not an art expert. If it comes to that in fact the only piece of art in my house that I can guess right now are the turtles metal wall hangings in my lobby. But I want to write down a little about art. What is art, who decides that something is art? And why they are such majors in the universities that study about art. In my thinking the art speaks for itself alone. There is no need of people to analyze, criticize or put on pedestal some items. Art speaks for itself – no books no experts can tell you what to feel when you see it. And I think whoever tries to study about art is simply wasting his/her time. Like my daughter for instance.

Car Racings Are Boring Competitions

I like sports and I like cars. By watching car racing I score them both. I used to enjoy watching car races but now I think they are boring. I lost my interest because there is no thrill in that competition. As it seems to me it is of no importance which pilot will drive you car. Sport is about the people who make the achievements. When racing with cars you must simply be lucky to have contract with the best constructor. If your car is bad you can do nothing. I am not against having different cars, but the difference usually is too obvious. Former champions get out of position with no chance of wining at all only because of their cars. It is not interesting this way.

How to Make my Kitchen Livelier



My kitchen is too sterile. Bathroom for instance can look this way but kitchen is the place where I spend more than half an hour per day so I want to make it appear livelier. I tried to put some items on the shelves but it does not have the desired effect. Now I am up to the idea of putting some kind of decorative wall art on the wall I face when I cook. Maybe I will put painting or some tapestry or some sculpture or something else that can be easily changed when I get bored with watching at it. But I need something else different than the naked wall. I don’t like to see painted naked wall.

Good Idea

Kids Playing at Childrens Playground Ship

My daughter’s kinder garden has terrific idea. Their director said that he will let the children to make the outdoor wall decorations of the kinder garden’s yard. Of course it will not be permanent decoration but if children create something that everybody likes they might make it permanent. He said that the children have a different taste of life than us adults. And the perfect designer for kids is the kids themselves. And also letting the kids express themselves is something that we need to encourage all the time. I can do nothing more but agree with him. I think letting the children paint the walls of their kinder garden is very good idea indeed.

Cooking Can Bring You Joy

I am a man that enjoys cooking. I know that in most families women cook but in my family I often lend my hand for cooking and I cook instead of my wife. I find the process very relaxing. And I might say it is challenging also. You can always experiment in the kitchen with new meal and when it happens to be good you feel happy about it. Actually the process of organizing the kitchen, the preparation of the food, the selection of the products is not such an easy task. And the process of preparing food can be time consuming or short as you like it. Cooking is a hobby that is both useful and relaxing. If you consider cooking not to be an obligation you can really enjoy it.
