Dear Leylâ! Today I will tell to you a journalist who died in 2017. After his death I met with him through his writings that mention from current events, political ideas, some places that he went. When I heard his death I researched on the internet, and found his biography. Reading his writings, watching conferences on the Youtube that he participated are very important for me. They tought me that working with own heart is reached a person to goodness. Yes, he worked hard, wrote writings, made researches related with Bosna, Crimea, Turkey, Andalusia, Asia, photography, exiles, wars and political events on the persecuted minorities. By making documentary related with Ottoman cities, architect Sinan, Jerusalem and Andalusian Muslims he left a big heritage. He was born in my city. Yes, we are sharing the same city. Additionally he stayed in London and learned English.

They [STRIKE]tought[/STRIKE] taught me that working with own heart is reached a person to goodness.

[STRIKE]Yes,[/STRIKE] He worked hard, wrote, [STRIKE]writings[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]made researches related with[/STRIKE] researched Bosnia, Crimea, Turkey, Andalusia, and Asia, photography, exiles, wars and political events on the persecuted minorities.

See my corrections above. I have no idea what you mean by the blue underlined part. I have left the order intact (although I've added some line breaks to make it easier on the eye) but it doesn't flow very well.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I couldn't write the blue part in english correctly. And I think I didn't understand a thing. Which doesn't flow? All of writing or only blue part?

The whole thing doesn't flow well. It could be a lot shorter too.

Maybe the blue part should be something like "They taught me that if I always go with my heart, I can be a good person" but I'm really not sure.
