Nikita Gill wrote, “How do you go back to being strangers with someone who has seen your soul?” The answer is easy. Never try to get to know them back. Never try to see THEIR soul. Because as much as you have seen the deepest part of someone’s soul, if they never bothered to see yours, you will inevitably go back to being strangers.

There's a belief that to take care of someone else, or to let someone else take care of you—that both are inherently unfeminist. I don't agree. There's no shame in devoting yourself to another person, as long as he devotes himself to you in return.
Curtis Sittenfeld, from Eligible

"Magic uses people," said Rincewind hurriedly. "It affects you as much as you affect it, sort of thing. You can't mess around with magical things without it affecting you. I just thought I'd better warn you."
"Like a wine bottle," said Creosote, "that--"
"--drinks you back," said Rincewind. "So you can put down that lamp and ring for a start, and for goodness' sake don't rub anything."
Terry Pratchett, Sourcery

What do *you* use or offer, in the same way some Native North Americans use tobacco, to show gratitude to your god or gods, when doing ritual or prayer or taking something from Earth or the Universe? Why?

Via de mão dupla, assim é a vida.
Em tudo que fizer, doe-se por completo, por inteir@; sem tolher o gingar deleitavel do ato de dar-se para agradar. E com o mesmo alento, espere e deseje receber.
Afinal, se a via estreitar-se demais, o ar esvai-se e a graça da vida se vai.
Mr. Saldanha

Pronoun Exercises
Tumblr media
Pronoun definition and exercises
  Pronouns are words that substitute nouns in sentences to avoid repetition or add clarity. They come in various types, each serving a specific function:     Personal Pronouns: Refer to specific people, animals, or things. They include subjective pronouns (I, you, he, she, it, we, they), objective pronouns (me, you, him, her, it, us, them), and possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs).     Demonstrative Pronouns: Point out specific people, animals, or things in relation to the speaker. They include this (near the speaker) and that (away from the speaker), as well as their plurals these and those.     Reflexive Pronouns: Reflect back to the subject of the sentence and are used to emphasize the subject's action. Examples include: myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves.     Relative Pronouns: Introduce relative clauses, which describe or give more information about a noun. Common relative pronouns include: who, whom, whose, which, and that.     Interrogative Pronouns: Used to ask questions. Examples include: who, whom, whose, which, and what.     Indefinite Pronouns: Refer to nonspecific people or things. Examples include: some, any, no, much, many, little, few, all, someone, somebody, something, anybody, anything, anyone, nobody, everything, everybody, every, each, both, other, others, several, either, neither, no one, and one.     Possessive Pronouns: Indicate ownership or possession without the need for a noun. Examples include: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, and theirs.     Reciprocal Pronouns: These pronouns are used when two or more people perform an action to or for each other. They indicate a mutual relationship or action between the individuals involved. The main reciprocal pronouns are: Each other: Refers to two people or things. For example: They hugged each other.   One another: Similar to each other but can refer to more than two people or things. For example: The team members supported one another during the competition.         RELATIVE  PRONOUNS: Relative pronouns are used to introduce relative clauses, which provide additional information about a noun in the main clause of a sentence.     Who: Used to refer to people. It is the subject of the relative clause. Example: The woman who lives next door is a doctor.     Whom: is a relative pronoun used to refer to people as the object of a verb or preposition in a relative clause. It is more formal and is often used in formal writing or speech, although who is more commonly used in informal contexts. Example: The woman whom I met at the party is my neighbour.     Whose: Indicates possession and is used to refer to both people and things. It can replace the pronouns its, theirs, hers and his Example: The house whose(which) windows are painted blue is mine.     Which: Used to refer to animals, things, or an entire clause. It is often used after a comma when the relative clause provides additional, nonessential information. Example: The book, which was published last year, is a bestseller.     That: Can refer to both people and things. It is often used in restrictive relative clauses, which provide essential information about the noun and are not separated by commas. Example: The car that is parked in the driveway belongs to my brother.        Relative Pronouns in Table Form: Relative Pronoun Function Example (Defining) Example (Non-Defining) who Subject or Object The man who lives next door is my friend. John, who is my neighbour, is an engineer. whom Object The woman whom I met is a doctor. My friend, whom I met at the party, is visiting from out of town. whose Possession The house whose windows are broken is old. Sarah, whose parents live in France, speaks fluent French. which Subject or Object The book which is on the table is mine. The car, which is parked in the driveway, belongs to my neighbor. that Subject or Object The car that I bought is blue. The cat that is sitting on the chair is mine.     Relative pronouns can be left out when they are the object of the verb in the relative clause and the relative pronoun is not followed by a preposition. This is especially common in informal English. Here are some examples: The book (that/which) I read last night was fascinating. The person (who/whom) she met at the party was her old friend. The car (that/which) he drives to work every day is very reliable. The house (that/which) they bought last year needs some renovation.           PERSONAL PRONOUNS: These personal pronouns are used to replace or refer to specific people, animals, or things in sentences, depending on their grammatical function. Person Subjective (Subject) Objective (Object) Possessive Adjective Possessive Pronoun Reflexive First I Me My Mine Myself Second You You Your Yours Yourself Third He Him His His Himself Third She Her Her Hers Herself Third It It Its Its Itself First We Us Our Ours Ourselves Second You You Your Yours Yourselves Third They Them Their Theirs Themselves
