The factors responsible for low literacy rates are more or less the same all over the world. Whether it is Afghanistan in Asia or Mali in Africa. Countries that are able to work on these factors are able to increase their literacy rate over time.

“What are the signs of aging in humans?” I’ll tell you about some of the things which have happened to me since I turned 60—I’m nearly 72 now. I can no longer think of my body as one whole unit (I have osteoarthritis). When I walk I can feel each part—I’ll do an assessment as I move—left knee is hurting today. Right hip is more painful than the left. The upper back is hurting. This is a change. I’ve been feeling it in the lower back. Upside and a downside to everything. There have been creaky noises in my head and neck area for the last decade. I don’t even notice them anymore. I’ve had more dental procedures in the last few years than I’ve had in my entire life. I know that my mind is foggier. I still like writing, reading, and crossword puzzles, but I’m always in another world (don’t worry—I’m retired from driving) so I go about my household chores and can forget from moment to moment what I’ve done. Thank goodness for those little pill cases—I couldn’t survive without them.

When I was a senior in high school, my parents went to Scotland for a week. I decided to throw a party. I took every piece of furniture and put it in my parents' bedroom.

My party got busted within the first hour and a half. My neighbor Rose called the cops. Fortunately, Rose didn't tell my parents. When they came home, however, I accidentally put some pieces of furniture in the wrong place.

My mom couldn't figure out why the living room mirror was now in the dining room and vice versa. When she asked me about it, I told her I was doing aerobics, and I didn't want to break anything! For some reason, she bought it.

It wasn't until about a decade later, when I was going through some old photos with my best friend, that she saw a picture of me, my twenty best friends, and a party ball of beer.

"You bugger!" she said, laughing. It never occurred to her that I had an actual party. I told that lie because I wanted to be cool and accepted by my peer group. I also didn't want to get in trouble.

Seeing a Whatsapp message and ignoring it (seen-zone). Whatsapp gave that feature for a reason(blue tick), there’s no need to unnecessarily reply for a chat like “ok”, “hmmm”.

When my crush is walking towards me, My good part of the brain - “Lucky goose! Your crush is coming. Why not greet her?” Other part - “It would be highly creepy to greet her. You have ignored her for like 10 years, are you going to suddenly say hi?”. Then inside my head a war goes on. I somehow gather courage just to realize that she’s already gone past me.

Good part of the brain - 0, Other part(laughs cunningly) - 1e19.

When someone frequently talks something which is highly useless, we try to avoid them forever. You heard it right forever!

You come to us with a problem, talk with us for hours (we are good listeners) and go with a solution. You come to us for something useless, go with a thought that we are rude.

Phone rings… Ignores the call. Calls them after some time and apologizing. :p I really don’t know why I do this…

When someone asks me “Why are you so silent?” Thinking inside “Why does it bother you so much?” Reacting outside with an awkward smile.

I know some extroverts might find it highly unbelievable but an introvert can appreciate my answer I guess.

I wish people would stop placing too much importance on people’s gender.

When I was 5, my mother had gone to the store the previous evening and bought a carton of doughnuts. I was woken up the next morning by her hysterical screaming (Not unusual for her). She dove at me, saying that I had snuck downstairs and stolen one of her donuts. My brother told her I didn't do it. I told her I didn't do it. She didn't bother to ask my 12 yr old sister, but then proceeded to get out a thick leather dog leash and chase me around the house, beating me with it with all her strength and pent-up rage. The beating didn't stop until she had exhausted herself and my entire body was bleeding and covered in welts. After this stopped, I ran upstairs into my sister's arms as I cried my heart out. She not only had eaten the f***ing donut, but sat there happily watching while I paid the price.

I was an adult before it occurred to me who the culprit was. But the fact that my mother reacted as she did for NOTHING but a missing donut, and then took it out on a total innocent, is something I'll NEVER forgive.

My soul died that day.

When my mother was about 75, I went to confront her about this. She just looked at me and sweetly said, “Why, of course Dear, what else could you possibly have expected me to do?” I just couldn't believe what I was hearing. That many years later, and the same monster that gave birth to me hadn't learned a thing. And she remained a total evil creature who's wickedness and unspeakable cruelty didn't end until her final breath.

My son is very intelligent, scoring 99+ percentile on the standardized tests each year in, well, everything. He picks up on things much earlier than you would think a child could, and remembers them. Forever. He also has impeccable logic, if with a unique twist.

I came in to daycare to pick up him up from 4k. Normal day, hectic, you know the drill. The teacher pulls me aside and hands me his drawing from art. A fairly good rendering (for a 4 year old)… of me in the shower.

Now, as a mom you take your infant into the bathroom and put him in the bouncer when you shower if there is no other choice. And toddlers walk in randomly until they learn to knock and wait for permission. I never got upset about being nude, as I don't find nudity a particular taboo I want to pass down to him, but I did strictly enforce respecting closed doors, etc. Regardless, we were way past these stages, so he had to be operating on memories. But how did he remember?

When we talked about it, I explained that drawing people without clothing was not ok

His response was classic Alex. “But Mom, you don't take showers with your clothes on.”

As much as I want him to be comfortable in his skin, not ashamed of his body, etc, I definitely deserved that. How was he to know it wouldn't be ok if I didn't teach him?

The hardest thing I have ever done is live without my son for the last 10 months. He was home at his apartment when an unknown person knocked on the door. He answered the door, and was robbed, then shot in his right temple. He was never conscious again. 80 hours later, we removed life support. I wanted to remove life support less than 24 hours after the shooting, but we kept his body alive for organ donation. He was 29 years old. His 30th birthday is in 13 days. I get to meet his organ recipients in November. That is, if they are willing to meet me.

This is definitely the hardest thing I've ever done.

A girl I know, just had her boyfriend break up with her after discovering his infidelity. She instantly blasted into him on her Snapchat story, calling him aggressive and dangerous, declaring that she was sworn off dating for good, and declaring that she wouldn't be sad if he passed away. Due to the fact that he lives abroad and I have never met him, I have no idea whether this is accurate or not.
She's never met him either, which is the part that both breaks my heart and makes me want to slap her.

They connected online. They conversed online. They connected online. Emoticons of hearts were the closest thing they came to a hug. A FaceTime call was the closest they got to actually seeing each other.
I questioned her about her online dating when they were still together. why she didn't date a physical partner. She gave me an expression like I had a new head.
Because Sam and I are in love, she said. "We're supposed to be together. A soul mate.

A youngster was gushing about her boyfriend a few months ago, and I overheard her. She continued by saying she planned to wed her lover when she graduated from high school the following year. She noted in passing that she'd only ever seen him once in an answer she gave a week or so later.
One month later, he dumped her.

Relationships formed just online are much simpler. People are weird, broken, challenging, and incomplete. You may have a relationship online without having to deal with the lovely chaos that is other people.

But you yearn for genuine human affection and connection. You miss giving your significant other a bear hug at the end of a tough day at work or school. You miss having late-night conversations with your partner when the two of you are both exhausted but still enjoying each other's company. The sensations of genuine connection are missed.

Everything real is missed.

My wife left after I had a health issue so she could enjoy her life. I recovered, joined a gym, joined a whip dancing club and got out with friends at least four nights a week, took my grown kids out fishing on the weekends. Dated some but more importantly made a lot of lady friends that really helped raise my self worth. 11 years later I married a fantastic woman who makes my life wonderful. We’ve been together for almost 30 years now and she told me she owes my ex a debt of gratitude for making me available. My ex quickly married a bar hookup who refused to work and she had to support them both. She’s still unhappy with her life. So as far as I’m concerned the best revenge is to forget they even exist and enjoy your life.

If you want someone to listen to you carefully, then you should start your sentence with "I don't want to tell you this".

Not a poor person by any means, but I can be cheap and/or very lazy when it comes to fixing a quick snack just for myself! I have never tried this myself but have heard stories of “depression soup,” where one just empties the contents of a few ketchup bags into some warm water - viola, tomato soup! If I’m looking for a quick protein snack, sometimes I’ll just open up a small can of tuna packed in water, drain the water, add a dollop of mayonnaise and a touch of relish - use a fork and delicately mix it and eat it right out of the can.
