January 28th 2020 - Word of the day - ALLEGE

ALLEGE The word allege is a verb which means it is an act.  If you accuse someone of committing a crime but the proof of the wrongdoing isn't yet found, use the verb  allege . You might  allege  that your sister broke a vase, just because no one else was home when you heard the crash. If you ever watch news programs, you often hear the verb  allege . A reporter might say that detectives allege that a certain person, who is now being held without bail, set a fire.

That's why we used  allege  until we know for sure. to  assert   positively , or declare;  affirm ; esp., to assert without proof

Past or future ?

If you had a choice, would you go back and change the past, or would you go forward and  know the future? I have seen people repling to above question with answer like," I will neither go in the past nor in the future, I'll always love to live in the present". And I respect their opinion when they say so as they have their own reasons to justify the same. But if you'll ask me, I'll most of the times would like to go forward and know the future. Want to know why ? Well, it's because of three reasons:- 1) I only have one choice i.e. either I can go back in past or go forward in future. In any case I can't chose both. 2) I want to know whether what I'm doing today is leading me to the path where I want to go.

Rachel Platten - Fight Song

Like a small boat On the ocean Sending big waves Into motion Like how a single word Can make a heart open I might only have one match But I can make an explosion And all those things I didn't say Wrecking balls inside my brain I will scream them loud tonight Can you hear my voice this time? This is my fight song Take back my life song Prove I'm alright song My power's turned on Starting right now I'll be strong I'll play my fight song And I don't really care if nobody else believes 'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep Everybody's worried about me In too deep Say I'm in too deep (in too deep) And it's been two years I miss my home But there's a fire burning in my bones Still believe Yeah, I still believe And all those things I didn't say Wrecking balls inside my brain I will scream them loud tonight Can you hear my voice this time? This is my fight song...

Shawn Mendes - Stitches
