The source of any bad writing is the desire to be something more than a person of sense--the straining to be thought a genius. If people would say what they have to say in plain terms, how much eloquent they would be.

Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if he or she were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do so with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

I agree sooo much with Peter, the only way to learn a language well is to use the language, I know this by experience, it doesn't matter how well you study it, as long as you won't be able to bring it into practice you will never master the language.
Correct!

Exactly
but this journey, I believe, will lead me to bottomless seas
English is really a very difficult language and of course it is very unscientific.
There is no good grammar in English and it is not not a flexible language. English is spread just because of the warriors or through its imperialistic domain.
But now after reading and writing much through this medium I started loving this language. Now it can not go unloved.

“If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.
I agree with you hundred percent and indeed there are not even nuances of doubts in your expressions.

No, it is one of the most difficult languages to learn in the world.

And how many languages do you know?

I know three languages.

Then obviously you are well placed to say that English is the most difficult language in the world? And my bet is that beside English the two languages are Nepali and Hindi, which are very similar? One way or another, that doesn't make a very big sample.

I can speak both German and Swedish fluently and I think my English is quite so too, even though it isn't my native language like the other two. And I have a lot more trouble with spanish. Then again there are people I know who can't understand the simplest things in english but who at the same time are far better at, for an example, spanish than me. So I guess that it's just Extremely individual, like everything else
Generaly, I consider writing a fine art, but sleping still is a little finer to me
Superb! You can speak many languages like this. Wish I could do the same. But don't know why; language is never fortee.

English is BY FAR the silliest, easiest european language. Only emotional americans would think otherwise. I mean: no gender, no word agreement, no declension, arguably no grammar!
