Why Prople Save Stamps
Why people save stamps
All of my friends think that saving stamps is the most boring hobby a person can have. They think that it is a waste of time. Moreover they think that by this one can gain nothing. But my point of view doesn’t match with them. There are several reasons behind saving stamps. First, saving stamps is a unique hobby and it’s a tough job too. It’s unique because most of the people have other hobbies like gardening, reading books, listening music etc and it’s a tough job because they are not readily available and you have to search for them. Second, every stamp has history behind it. So by saving stamps one can know about any historic moment, place or person. That will enrich his/her historic knowledge. Third, if a person has many duplicate stamps they can sell them and can get handsome cash. So to conclude I can say that saving stamps is an interesting thing to me.

My Hometown

It’s not just any place, it’s my hometown.”My hometown is full of natural scenic beauty. It is beside a river and covered with lovely mountains. We often go for swimming in the river and also go for fishing. We climb to the pick of the mountains over and over again just to see the unique beauty of my hometown. There is a forest behind my hometown. It’s so dense and dark that one cannot see sunlight if he/she enters into the forest. There are so many birds in the forest that we cannot count them in numbers. We always here birds chirping coming from the forest. I can say that my hometown always makes me nostalgic. So whenever I get free time I run there and feel the magnificence of

    The thick tree lines and vast open fields bring a sense of freedom and grandeur. The brilliant light shining like beacon of hope with the soft calming breeze flowing across the field is refreshing and pure like a baby after a warm bath. The air seems to be free and clear of the city’s poisonous air pollution and the soft sounds of birds makes it all too refreshing, like a beautiful day on the beach. With quiet clean monuments and buildings dancing across the landscape, the look of peace and quiet seems to be present at last. As the blue crisp skies begin to darken across the brilliant blue pond, the shimmering light hitting the trees is as beautiful as the sun setting on the Catalina Island on a bright blue day with soft clouds flowing across the sky. I have the taste of fresh fruit on my tongue in my mouth as I take a long deep breath, and realize how much the soft green grass adds to the peacefulness in the park. I can hear the cheerful wildlife scampering beyond the tree line, like young children frolicking in their mother’s front yard. As the quiet darkness sets in, and with the city brilliant lights in the background, the serene park makes the bustling city seem peaceful once…
