कृतज्ञता का अर्थ है आभारी होना। हमारे जीवन में आभारी होने के लिए बहुत सी चीज़ें हैं। वास्तव में, हमारे पास जो कुछ भी है उसमें हमें खुश रहना चाहिए!हम जो खाना खाते हैं वह बहुत बड़ा वरदान है। हर कोई हमारे जैसा स्वादिष्ट खाना पाने के लिए भाग्यशाली नहीं होता। हम सभी दिन में तीन बार भोजन करते हैं। वे हमें बैठने, चलने, बोलने, मुस्कुराने और कार्यों को पूरा करने के लिए सहारा देते हैं और पोषण देते हैं।
जिस तरह से भोजन हमें परोसा जाता है, उसके लिए हम जो खाते हैं उससे प्यार करना और उसका सम्मान करना आवश्यक है। हम अक्सर खुद को अपनी प्लेटों में भोजन के बारे में बड़बड़ाते या आलोचना करते हुए पाते हैं। हम इसे इस तरह के बयानों से अनजाने में अस्वीकार कर देते हैं - "मैं इसे हर सुबह खाकर ऊब गया हूं, यह व्यंजन बहुत फीका है, काश मेरी मां इसे बेहतर बनातीं।" हम भी चिंता करते हैं या दोषी महसूस करते हैं - "मेरा वजन बढ़ सकता है। अगर मेरा शुगर लेवल बढ़ जाए तो क्या होगा? इसका स्वाद ताज़ा नहीं है।
मुझे उम्मीद है कि मैं बीमार नहीं पड़ूंगा।" एक बार जब हम खाने का निर्णय कर लेते हैं, तो भोजन का आनंद लेते हैं, न कि उसके प्रभावों के बारे में सोचते हैं। आइए भोजन से पहले और भोजन करते समय कृतज्ञता और प्रेम के विचार बनाएं। गुणवत्ता या मात्रा हमेशा सही नहीं हो सकती. कोई बात नहीं - हमने हजारों स्वादिष्ट भोजन का आनंद लिया है (और आनंद लेना जारी रखेंगे)। कुछ खामियों से भोजन के प्रति हमारे सम्मान में बदलाव नहीं आना चाहिए। जो भोजन हम प्रतिदिन खाते हैं वह हमारे शरीर के लिए पोषण है। हम वही चुनते हैं जो स्वस्थ है। हम यह निर्धारित कर सकते हैं कि क्या स्वादिष्ट है, लेकिन अगर हम कहें कि जब हम कुछ विशिष्ट खाएंगे तो हम खुश होंगे, तो हमारी खुशी हमारे भोजन पर निर्भर करती है। आराम से बैठें, और भोजन करते समय अपने आप को खुश होने की कल्पना करें और अपने भोजन में प्रसन्न ऊर्जा का संचार करें।
जब हम कोई ऐसी चीज़ खाते हैं जो हमारे लिए स्वादिष्ट नहीं होती तो हम अक्सर चिड़चिड़ापन का कारण बन जाते हैं। खाना भले ही स्वादिष्ट न हो... लेकिन ख़ुशी या चिड़चिड़ाहट हमारी पसंद है। अपने भोजन को अपने दिमाग पर हावी न होने देने का आज ही अभ्यास करें। आप जो खाते हैं उसकी आलोचना करने से भोजन में नकारात्मक ऊर्जा फैलती है, जो बाद में आपके दिमाग पर असर डालती है। आज प्रत्येक भोजन से पहले, रुकें और पुनः पुष्टि करें, "मैं अपना भोजन खाते समय खुश और शांत हूं। मैं अपनी खुशी से भोजन को ऊर्जावान बनाता हूं।"

Some people say that we are the masters of our fate, and we can create our future however we want it to be. I'll believe that I am the master of my fate, but I can only contribute my efforts and good deeds to make my future better. I strongly believe that our destiny and fate are things that no one can evaluate or change. Sometimes I feel like God has control over our future and destiny; therefore, some people don't get success or achieve the things they want, and even those who love each other don't get to spend their lives together.
Now, shall I say that we are masters of our fate? If we were masters of our fate, why don't some people get things they want. "Your future is in your hands," my teacher said, and I thought, If my future is in my hands, then what will happen if I die suddenly? In this case, shall I say I am master of my fate? Our future is unknown; we people can only guess the future but never calculate it. Time is the medium that breaks the law. "I am master of my fate". It is so well said by someone that "time is a changer of seasons." With time, losers can become winners and winners can become losers. As said, we cannot evaluate our future but only guess what it will look like.
Time and the future are just perfect, full of excitement, adventure, journey, battle, sad and happy events, and many, many more. If I were to choose between becoming a master of fate or staying without the ability to control fate, I would choose to be an ordinary person without any powers to control fate. I love the journey of life, which with full of adventure, challenges, new experiences, and facing and overcoming things that I never dreamed about. I feel so delighted, and it gives me huge happiness and satisfaction when I think about what my friends and I will become in the coming future. As I said, we can only guess about the future; similarly, sometimes I give a shot at guessing what my friends will become. I wonder if some of them might become YouTubers, engineers, doctors, nurses, footballers, scientists, social workers, and other things that I had never heard of.
The best thing about our lives is that the future is unknown, which makes everyone treat the other person equally. Who knows, someday the other might become the most respected person in the whole world.
When I consider the word fate, I think of luck and fortune. The above line talks about controlling our fate. A person born into a royal family becomes king even though he doesn't deserve it because of fate. He is not loved by the people of his kingdom. On the other hand, a person born as a common person who has all the qualities of becoming a king becomes a king by fighting and winning the throne, is loved by all, and is the real king.
We can see in the above story that the person who was born into the royal family got the position by fate and was not a true king by virtue. On the other hand, the person who was not born into the royal family was a real king who was loved by all; this shows that fate is not as powerful as hard work and qualities.
We can either be the first king or the second; it all depends on us. Whenever a person gets success by chance, the person never knows the meaning of hard work and cannot taste the real success in life. The other person knows that he and his actions are responsible for whatever happens in his life.
At last, I want to say that mastering our fate is important, as it gives us confidence and improves our way towards life.

Beneath the scorching June sun rays the dark tar road was sweltered and made road seem to wobble from afar. I was standing underneath a thicket by the road talking about the tests we gave, when I noticed a person walking almost aimlessly. Though it is not a usual seen as poverty still reigns here amidst those who were left behind by the "progressive world". An impulse nudged me to observe him. He was a middle-aged man but his state seems to age him, his hair ran down from the back of his head, his eyes seemed other worldly to me as it seemed to be looking for something but he was not observing anything. All of a sudden, he stopped and looked down. A look of curiosity and confusion bore on his face as he slightly tilted his head from side to side as if wondering what he is seeing.
After observing for a few moments,
he stood and looked up. I followed his gaze but nothing was there. He bent
slowly and picked the object up; it was then that i saw what it was. It
was a ten-rupee coin which must have been lost by a passerby. He looked at it
with dearness and his countenance became jolly he held it against his chest
looking up again he thanked. His eyes were like an empty space but it felt
as though it looked for something. After thanking a few times, he carefully
kept it in the pocket nearest to his heart and gave it a few good pat. Then
again, he set on in his way, I had not known him there was a lesson. To be
happy is a choice, to be grateful is a choice and our character is thus made by
our choices. Situations are unpredictable but what we do in turn are our
choices, and so are we defined.
