Tales from childhood: Before and after.

Good afternoon, people! I'm Timothy. I'm an orphan boy. I already said that I have become accustomed to my status.

"Your mother is very far away from you now. You can't call her or write a letter." someone told me.

I think my mother knows that I was able to find friends in the orphanage. Although of course I have problems, I solve them.

When I had a mother, I was a mama's boy. Then my mother died under unclear circumstances. Immediately I found myself here and I had to come to terms with a lot of things.

I had to stand up for myself in the group. No one was protecting me anymore.

Tales from childhood: Any weather is good.

Greetings to everyone reading this! I'm Mr. H. I'd like to tell you more about my family.

Let's start with the fact that I was born and raised in a very cold place. From an early age, I've been accustomed to the cold climate. My son loves snow and wind, too. My wife, however, comes from a warmer climate, but that doesn't bother us at all.

Our child enjoys walking outside in winter. We all like it.

"What nice weather today!" I said to my wife during the rain after hot days.

Everything is always great in my family, no matter the weather.

Syrinx.

Syrinx (Σῦριγξ) (Súrinx) was a nymph (νύμφη) (nýmphē) in Greek myths and legends. She served Artemis (Ἄρτεμις). Also, Syrinx was known for her purity.

The god Pan (Πάν) (Pán) pursued her. Then Syrinx asked her naiad (ναϊάδες) (naïádes) sisters for salvation. They turned her into a reed or in lilac near the Ladon River.

Then Pan made a flute from the plant.
