Monday Today, Tomorrow Is Tuesday

Monday, oh Monday! Back to work for so many of us either at home or work outside. What's the work here in my community with so many volunteers? I know that the city employees are paid for their work whether they work or not but because they are on the payroll. The workers, sales clerks are at work but are they really busy? Now that the biggest retail store Zellers closed down their business probably that lessen the competition and big box stores Staples, Superstore, Walmart can rebound and its business as usual without much competition or lesser. Dollar Stores? There are at least three branches in this small community of at least fifty thousand people. Small population eh? Not that small compared to the first city that I lived and first known what Canada is. That city has a population of only 12,000!
Imagine? You bet I was cultured shock wayback then being in a populated country when living in a community of more than hundred thousands and the next adjacent town where population is in millions.

If you are a nature lover you have to reside near the forest where the presence of evergreen wooded area is beyond compare. Watch and hear, listen to the daily chirps of birds, the commotion of forest animals such as squirrels, beavers, racoons, deer, and elks. No you wont hear the noise of your neighbors. People here don't make too much noise. Unlike living in the big city where honking vehicle's loud noise, heavy traffic, cursing of impatient drivers are prevalent. The non-stop noise from the on-coming back and forth of trains and other bustling sounds uncommon in small city and town.

Sea view, mountain view which one will you prefer. It's truly amazing to have your house settled in both worlds with two majestic sceneries. You will probably wont leave your house anymore just to admire what is there to see and appreciate all the amenities before you. Beautiful panoramic view helps any writer brings out great inspiration to their kind of writing. While a boring scenery brings out a different perspective and that view will only resort to a different kind of story, perhaps a horror novel designed for movie.

It is what you can see with your own eyes and perceive extra sense of stimulus out there that will help you compose the realities of what you are suppose to write. Sometimes when imagination doesn't help an extra perception and grasp with reality will do you a favor. A journey or travel around the world helps bring more adventure, twisted plots and seriousness of your writing spectacles. It is true that you can write more than hundred thousand words by borrowing other country's literature, borrowing their exotic words. Adding extra foreign language makes you different from the rest of those writers who only write to their own vernacular. Yeah just like me.

By being adventurous with borrowed vocabulary words from other countries helped blockbusters movie such as: Eat, LOve and Pray, Quantum of Solace, SkyFall, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Star Wars, Prometheus, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Hero, etc.

What does it mean? English has limited vocabulary?

Truth is ENGLISH is the list of England's vocabulary and through colonization, exploration and expedition through hundred years, through centuries the language has expanded and the dictionary is now more than  five inches thick.

Oh no! I heard expletive cursing from somebody on TV. You should be ashamed of yourself. Those cursing is a barbarian's way of  opposing to what is written in the past. He is probably trying to be a highlander but he's always down! The Queen of England is laughing at his own bout with his primeval fear. He should be thrown to the lion's den. Ahahahaha.
