At night they come without being fetched. By day they are lost without being stolen. What are they?

Moon on Earth? ;) Rezky, you must be kidding :D 


Orchestra, I don’t know.. :/ I only know that  Earth’s axis is an invisible line that is tilted at about 23 degrees that goes through the Earth. ...The Earth is spinning like an enormous gyroscope; it never stops.

I build up castles.
I tear down mountains.
I make some men blind,
I help others to see.
What am I?  (you can find it on a seaside)

Yep! you’ve got a point! It never stops at all but you can STOP FEEL it (I stated “stops FOR YOU”)!



I meant Northern/Southern Pole (geographic, not magnetic)! Because while standing along any axis you can never feel the rotation around this axis. Just imagine!  If you stood in any place apart from center of fast centrifuging merry-go-round, you’d feel the force pulling you away from the center (centrifugal force).  But you have only to stand on the center and this force will disappear. That’s what I meant! You know, now this question seems to me to have been asked incorrectly. Sorry for that!Embarassed

Eleniya, maybe sand?  But just can’t realize how it can make someone blind? Undecided

It’s sweat but million times more disguisting than the bitterest thing all around the world.

Orchestra, thanks for the explanation :) I thought about poles, but doubted.


Absolutely correct! Sand may make someone blind if its grains get into smb’s eyes in the wind. But such a blindness is only for a while, fortunately. :)


 


swEAt or swEEt? I guess, you mean sweet. hmmm… it’s food? No, I think, it’s lie or something like that. Sweet lie…
