The Devil's Dictionary
Today, I want to introduce a different kind of dictionary. This dictionary has writen by Ambrose Bierce in 19th century. He was an American journalist.
This dictionary doesn't contain normal definitions. All its definitions are funny and negative.
For example: in a normal dictionary, the definition of dentist is "A kind of doctor, who looks after people's teeth.
But in this book the definition of dentist is ''a person who puts metal in your mouth and takes coins out of your pocket."
Or everybody knows who a star is? Now, look at the definition of star in the devil's dictionary:
"A person who has tried long time to become famous. Now she/he wears big sunglasses so people don't recognize her/him."

What a wonderful world?
I see trees of green,
Red roses too,
I see them bloom,
For me and you,
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world?
I see the skies of blue, the clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world?
The colores of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky,
Are also on the faces , of people going by,
I see friends shakin hands, saying '' How do you do?''
Thay're really saying ''I love you''
I hear babies cryin , I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more,
Then , I'll ever know,
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world?
Yes, I think to myself,

We are living faster , but are we living better?
Not long ago people believed that in the future we would work less, have more free time,and be more relaxed.
But sadly this has not happened.Today we work harder,work longer hours,and are more stressed than previous generations.And although we are obsessed with machines which save us time,we have less free time than our parents and grandparents had.But what is this doing to our health?
For most people,faster does not mean better!!!!!!
