Saba Kvinikadze – Larry puts Christmas story

It was a normal day, I was watching a movie about a candy machine, the machine that was able to make candy out of anything! Christmas was coming close so I decide to write a letter to Santa! After finishing writing a letter I put it into mailbox and went home. Finally it was January 1st, I ran down to my Christmas tree excited about my present. I saw a candy machine waiting for me under the Christmas tree, and I immediately started to use it. All you needed is to press a button when I pressed it, it gave me candy. After that, I called my friend and told him about the candy machine. He was shocked, he said: wow this is very cool can we test it together? I said that I have already tested it, friend: it’s ok I want to see your machine that gives you candy. Ok just come to my house and I will show you. The next day he came to my house and I showed him the machine. My friend said that we could use it to make Lilliputians happy, I really liked his idea so I decided to tell everything to emperor, he seemed to like it too, I couldn’t be happier.  After that I started to sell candy everyone in the town seemed to like it too, as the time pas candy started to sell even more and more candy, but one day…. something really bad happened. The candy machine broke, and I had to throw it away. Before I could leave it started to work on its own I was very confused but I didn’t have time to think because all of sudden a big monster formed out of candy and started to break and crush everything  that was in the way. It started to run after me, I was so scared I couldn’t even move! But suddenly I saw someone jump on the monster from behind, they when chopped his head off and saved me, to be honest without them I would probably be dead. This was my story. Hi my name is Saba.  This year I want to learn more about English, about the world and other languages. I want to meet more people. And I want the pandemic to end. Thanks for looking

Now I will tell you about Gulliver’s New Year’s Eve and his adventure. Gulliver decided to meet the New Year with his new friends, and he went to the king’s palace. The king was very glad and happy. He asked Lilliputians to decorate the palace to put a very big and beautiful Christmas tree. He invited a lot of people, they had a lot of sweets and cakes. Everybody sang and danced. Suddenly the king saw that there wasn’t a golden star on the top of the Christmas tree. Everyone thought that Gulliver was the thief because only Gulliver could reach the star. One bed man said that he saw how Gulliver took the star. Gulliver was arrested. Suddenly professor Verity has come. He told the bed man to sit on the truth machine chair. Professor Verity put some questions to the men. It was clear that the man was the thief. Gulliver was free and happy. Everybody was happy. Gulliver’s desire was to stay there forever. The king’s desire also was the same, he wanted Gulliver to stay with them forever. At 12 o’clock Santa Claus has come and everybody was gifted with presents. Children made the snowmen in the garden and Gulliver the king and professor Verity played with snowballs with children and Lilliputians. It was the most beautiful night in their life.

Nutsa’s New Year’s Eve

2022 I spent a special time in a new environment in Kakheti hotel Savaneti. My father made me a surprise as I have a birthday on December 31st. There were a lot of people, my parent’s friends with their families. I was very happy. We were dancing, singing and we spent a very good time. When there were 5 minutes left before the New Year, my mother entered the hall with my birthday cake. The cake was super nice with 10 candles. I put out the candles on the cake in front of all guests and at the same time there were the sounds of fireworks from outside. Everybody was wishing me a happy birthday and a happy New Year too. It was super funny for me. I was so proud and thankful for my parents that they organized 10th birthday by this way. It was unforgettable. By 2022 I plan to study well, and also want to take a swimming class to improve my swimming. If I have time, I will take a drawing class too.

Keso’s New Year Eve

This New Year was special for me because I spent it with my parents not at home, but in the nice Hotel Savaneti in Kakheti. There were a lot of children. There was a New Year’s concert and everybody enjoyed it. I danced a lot, even I sang a song in front of all guests. Everybody applauded me. I was so proud. Suddenly Santa Claus entered the hall, he gave us gifts and sweets. When I came closer to him, suddenly I recognised him, wow it was my uncle.  I didn’t say anything to him, but it was so funny. He tried to speak in a different voice like he were a very old man. I laughed a lot. When the fireworks started I thought my favourite dreams come for this New Year. I hope it works and for the next year my dreams will come true. 

We had a very good time. I never forget that night.  For the next year I want to take modern dance classes. I love to dance, when I hear the music I start dancing. I also want to improve my English and go for travel to Europe with my parents.

Giorgi Bakhutashvili – What Will Save the World

The 15 centimeters tall little men loved Gulliver very much, they became friends and lived together in peace… Yes, you are right… You guessed it… I am going to tell you a very interesting story about the well-known Gulliver and about human love…Gulliver already could understand Lilliputian and fluently speak in their language. He was a quite clever man and gave wise advice to people who needed it.  He was very kind and gave a hand with hundreds of little men, in bad or at the good times, especially when there was a storm, or the sea was rough at night, when the beach was fighting with high waves, and mountains around the temple were snowed by heavy white cold snow, when there was a terrible freeze and the gigantic ice cubes were lying near their small houses …  He helped them when the apple trees in the paradise garden were harvested…When there was an amazing holiday, he was as good for the housewives as for children or men.  No one could attack Lilliput, the country was fully defended. Only happiness, freedom, and love existed around them and in their little hearts. The Lilliput country loved holidays.  In these times they have funny days together. They were dancing, singing and laughing all day long. Everyone was happy, thankful, joyful, with a wide smile on their faces. 

It was a terrible virus…which spread very fast on the Earth and destroyed many people’s happiness…Despite it, people didn’t give up and deeply believed that once this trouble will end, like a nightmare…  It was one of the favorite holidays for people. Everyone was preparing for this magical day of the year and choosing special nice costumes. The streets were decorated in bright colors. These were not easy days, but everyone tried to be happy and somehow forget about the virus a little bit, and celebrate the New Year’s days… Gulliver stood up early morning, dressed, and went to the deepest forest. After a while, he found the most beautiful Christmas tree and brought it to the center of the city. Every child wanted to decorate the tree and they carefully held the Christmas toys with their tiny fingers. On top of the tree, there was twinkling a huge bright Christmas star. Everyone was standing around the tree and looking up to the shining star. Every little man had one wish: soon dangerous virus would disappear, and never come back to hurt people’s hearts. Gulliver had a secret desire and was trying to make his dream come true… He worked hard every day to invent medicine, which will save people’s lives all over the world… He never gave up…Tried and tried with heart…And did all his best… Once he will leave Lilliput’s country, he will meet with his nice family. He missed his two curly blond babies with blue, wide, angel eyes. Every day he dreamed to hug his kind, beautiful wife… Gulliver truly believed in himself and one amazing day, he found the magic formula and created a wonder pill… The virus already will never defeat human beings…That was victory… One big boat was standing in the sea, waiting to let it go…There were hundreds of little creatures with big hearts on the beach …Gulliver was leaving the country of Lilliput, where he learned that everything is possible, every dream comes true, love and care is the most important thing in our life…and never give up… 

As you see, 2022 was a lucky year. My story comes to the end. 2022 had a really happy and nice ending. Never forget: we live in a wonderful world, where we must care for each other and we must be full of love…  Wishing you a Happy New Year…Stay positive, work hard…May the New Year bring joy, peace, and happiness to you and your entire family!

რობინ ჰუდი თანამედროვე სამყაროში

Leave a comment

King of Sherwood – ამ სახელით ვიცნობთ ლეგენდარულ რობინ ჰუდს, რომლის რეპუტაციაზე დავაც, ალბათ, ყველა ჩვენგანს არაერთხელ მოგვისმენია. ვინ იყო სინამდვილეში ის? ქურდი, რომელიც უბრალოდ მდიდრებს ძარცვავდა, თუ ადამიანი, რომელიც საკუთარი თავის საფრთხეში ჩაგდებით დაუცველ, მოწყვლად ფენას ეხმარებოდა?

ფაქტი ერთია – რობინ ჰუდმა თავისი საქმიანობით უამრავი ადამიანის ცხოვრება უკეთესობისკენ შეცვალა.

Nottingham Castle-მა 2000-ზე მეტ ადამიანთან ჩაატარა გამოკითხვა, რომლის მიზანიც იყო, გაეგოთ ადამიანების აზრი, თუ როგორი იქნებოდა რობინ ჰუდი დღეს რომ ცოცხალი ყოფილიყო.[1]

გამოკითხვის შედეგებმა აჩვენა, რომ ადამიანთა უმრავლესობას(78%-ს) სჯეროდა, რომ მისი ნომერ პირველი საზრუნავი სიღარიბისა და უსახლკარობის დაძლევა, ქალთა უფლებების დაცვა და რასობრივი უთანასწორობის აღმოფხვრა იქნებოდა.

ალბათ, ამ გამოკითხვამ ზუსტთან მიახლოებული შედეგები გვიჩვენა, რადგან ის ლეგენდები, რომლებიც რობინ ჰუდზე გვსმენია, უდაოდ მეტყველებს მის ძლიერ, სამართლიან, თავისუფლების მოყვარულ ხასიათზე, რომელიც არ უშინდება გამოწვევებს და ყველაფერს აკეთებს, რომ თავისი პრინციპებიდან არ გადაუხვიოს.

როგორ ფიქრობთ, რობინ ჰუდის ასეთ ხასიათს დღევანდელი ქაოტური სამყაროს განუკითხაობა აჯობებდა?

ლოგიკური იქნება ვიფიქროთ, რომ რობინ ჰუდი უფრო მოერეოდა ჩვენს სამყაროს და არა პირიქით, რადგან მისთვის არ აქვს მნიშვნელობა ჟამთა ცვალებადობას და ყველა ეპოქაში ისევე მოიქცეოდა, როგორც აქამდე.

თუ ვერ მოერეოდა, ის მაინც გვეცოდინება, რომ არასდროს დანებდებოდა. ჰოდა, განა არის რამე იმაზე უფრო მნიშვნელოვანი, ვიდრე ღირებულებებისა და პრინციპებისთვის ბრძოლა?
