Temper tantrums are best avoided. it does more harm then good. If one is prone to throwing temper tantrums, it may be a good idea to practice anger management. This would be good for your stress level and blood pressure.

A single thread can be very important. When used in stitches by the doctor, it saves lives. A thread holds together all our garments.

Elastic has changed the way our socks look. Can you imagine the past, when the socks / stockings would be gathered around the ankles, possibly held up by a line. Elastic saves the day for us today.

Life is a huge canvas. Paint it the way you want things to be. Do not regret later that you did not get colors of your choice. This canvas is going to be your own, designed and painted by you.

The kettle was on the fire and water was boiling. The steam rising out of the spout was looking very nice. When poured over the ground coffee, the boiling water released a wonderful aroma and the coffee made the room smell beautiful.

Etiquette is a very much hyped word. Lots of things are forced upon you because of it. I feel the best is to behave in a manner which is clean and comfortable. It should not be offensive to the people around you. The civilised world has many classes for young ladies to learn proper etiquette
