Out of all of the words in the English dictionary I choose rain, because I really like rain, but realized I knew nothing about the actual word, like whether it had any deeper meaning than just water from the sky or not. I found out a lot about the actual word in my research, which I looked through dictionaries and thesauruses, but took it further looking through the bible and Quran finding versus with the word and found proverbs and quotes that give the word a new meaning but that’s just the…

I will be focusing on the Irish. There are many reasons why someone might want to move to another country. Some of those reasons may be for money, work, food, or even a better life.
