Dear Diary
Natural experiences that man comes across, enhance his inner joy. They bring him close to God and his creation. They leave an everlasting impact on his mind and heart I had a similar experience with nature. While passing through the hills of Scotland, a melodious song caught my attention. The song was so enchanting and melodious that it still lingers in my ears. The entire valley seemed to be flooded with the beautiful voice of the Solitary Reaper. The song was so captivating that I stood there motionless so as not to disturb her. The song was sweeter than the sweet notes of both the nightingale and the cuckoo who sang in romantic surroundings. I couldn’t understand the theme of the song as the dialect was unfamiliar to me. Perhaps, she was singing some sad and plaintive note. Whatever the theme, the music of the song made me spell bound and I stood there motionless, listening to the girl’s song. It seemed as the song was never-ending. It had touched my heart. The song has left an everlasting impression on my mind. I still bear in my heart the memory of the melodious song.

Dear Diary
Jeanne’s craze for a villa led us to Juliette’s villa. I was uninterested in buying the villa but went there to have a look for Jeanne’s satisfaction. When the ladies went for an inspection of the villa, there was an entry of Mrs. Al Smith. She was in a great hurry and hence mistook me to be the owner of the villa. Taking advantage of the situation, I got her to make a deal, thereby earning a profit of hundred thousand francs. My wife was pleasantly surprised when I finalised the deal with Julliette. Though, I am happy to strike this deal but at the same time I regret for cheating my wife, Jeanne. She does not suspect my actions. Tomorrow, I shall tell her the reality. Hope she too would excuse me this time. I pledge not to cheat her again in the future. It was immoral and unethical to indulge in such an act. I shouldn't have betrayed her. Tomorrow morning, the first thing I need to do is to apologise to her.
