Books, Stories and Plays with Three…

By admin

The Three Sisters by Anton P. Chekhov
The Anton Chekhov play “Three Sisters” begins with Irina saint celebration, in the middle of Russian nowhere someplace their father had been retired. Irina and her sisters Olga and Masha make attempts to put up with life in their rural home, but still dreaming about Moscow.
Olga, a school teacher, is the consistent and liable one, working all hours of the day. Masha is stuck in a marriage to a man she despises. Irina is desperate to get out of the house and find a job - and the freedom and sense of purpose she hopes will come with it - in the outside world. Through all their sorrow and bad luck, the 3 sisters one way or another keep the last sight of hope.
Lasting around three hours the play is definitely too long, but we did tell you the story much faster.


The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas, father
The Three Musketeers (Les Trois Mousquetaires) is a novel by Alexandre Dumas, father. It recounts the adventures of a young man named d’Artagnan after he leaves home to become a musketeer. The 3 musketeers of the title are d’Artagnan’s friends Athos, Porthos, and Aramis — inseparable friends who live by the motto, “One for all, and all for one”. To make story short, I’ll say it is about their war against the Cardinal Richelieu, with the King Louis XIII of France and…..well, conflict with the evil Milady de Winter!
Read it. It is easy and interesting.

Myths, Legends, Fables & Folklore with Number 3

By admin

From the Three Graces to the Three Fates to the Three Furies, mythology is filled with threes. The Three Graces preside over banquets, dances, and social settings. They are the children of Zeus and Eurynome. Their names are Euphrosyne, Aglaia and Thalia.

Example #1 - The Gorgons in Greek Mythology

The Gorgons were a trio of monsters in Greek mythology. They were sisters who were legendary for their horrible faces (and bodies), and ancient Greek artists seemed especially fond of depicting the Gorgons as grotesque creatures. And because of their terrifying appearance and abilities, these mythic monsters were the perfect beings to play evil enemy to a host of Greek heroes.

For People Who Believe in Numerology

By admin

By Mathematicians, lucky numbers distinguished from another by some properties, such as asymptotic behavior according to the prime number theorem; also Goldbach’s conjecture has been extended to them. There are infinitely many lucky numbers. A lucky prime is a lucky number that is prime. It is not known whether there are infinitely many lucky primes. The first few are

3, 7, 13, 31, 37, 43, 67, 73, 79, 127, 151, 163, 193…

Numerology is a science which is consider to be the most ancient but rather advanced science in the world. Numbers are everywhere you look. Numerology is the study of the mysterious and hidden meaning of numbers and their relevance to our society and existence. With Numerology everybody can find out his/her lucky number. But in general, the number 3, is lucky for the people who was born in March or December and at Tuesday or Friday.

Indians believe, that the following numbers are compatible with the:

  • Business - 3, 5, 6, 7, 9
  • Family - 3,5,6,7, 9 If you did pay attention, we have the same lucky number either for business or family matters. Do you know why? - Because family is the business, nothing else. Just some people have a pleasant business and some not.
  • Romance and Love - 1,3,6,9 At my believe romance and love could be more close to family, not a business.

Find a theory that fits your beliefs and be happy!
