Caring and Happiness - Aarchi Agarwal

To me, happiness means caring for one another. I have a pet, and it is a Labrador dog. Its name is Dazi. It is white in colour and lives in a kennel. It barks loudly and runs very fast. I give roti, milk, bread, pedigree, calcium bones, etc., to eat. It protects our house from thieves or any other strangers. He chases all the stray dogs that tend to enter our house. It is a very faithful animal. It sleeps very little at night and keeps observing at night. I play with it and click photos of it while playing with a ball. She is more than a family member to us, and everyone loves her. Whenever she is ill, she won't eat anything, and then we take her to the vet. I give medicines with meals and take proper care.  It is so much fun to have such a wonderful and faithful friend who gives a lot of happiness at home. I love my dog very much and take care of it. Being with my pet dog is true happiness to me.

Earth Day 🌎- Moksha Sompura

I am the earth

And the earth is me.

Each blade of grass,

Each Honey tree,

Each bite of mud,

And stick and stone,

Are blood and muscle,

Skin and bone.

And just as I need every bite of me to make my body fit, the Earth needs Grass and stone and tree, things that grow here naturally. This Day that's why across the world, we say as long as life, as dear, as free, I am the Earth, and the earth is me.

I am who I am - Linisha Agarwal

A person’s character should not be judged by their marks or the amount of wealth he or she has or by their looks. The deeds and personalities are what makes a person good.  I won’t be talking about where I come from, who my parents are, which school I study in or what class am I in or what my age is. Because these are things that just represent me but not define me. 

My character is what defines me.

Why do you want to be like others?

I me

I am who I am

I do what makes me happy.

I live for myself, not you.

U may not agree with me…

But I am not seeking your approval.

I am happy with all that I am!

Don’t let anyone decide what you will do?

You do what you want to do!!!

Just be yourself, don’t think how others will think. Be what you are. Why change? Why look like others or be others or copy others?

Can’t you be real you, we are much more beautiful than actresses, they look beautiful because they are in a mask, a mask of makeup. In reality, some of them are or might be really horrible. And if you think wow they are so thin then don’t imagine yourself to be like them because they do hours of exercise and their diet is way too less. So don’t imagine yourself like them, just live your own beautiful life.

If you say, I am so fat, see she is so slim. Then ask yourself, “why am I thinking about her body? I am cute this way but if I think I am too fat then exercise”. Why judge your body while seeing others?

Can you imagine if everyone in the world looks the same! Can you recognize each other? If not, then why be like others. Would you like it if there were two Jimin in South Korea… I would hate it!

Be you and stay you!

Truthfulness - Vinisha Choudhary

Truthfulness means the fact of being truth. Truthful people will understand themselves, and know their own strengths and weakness. Be accurate in their descriptions of themselves or others, so that they do not mislead others.

The truthful person is the one that always speaks, uses or professes the truth. It is a value that must be formed very early in children and as any value, it can be worked on all their activities, either at school or at home.

Being truthful makes you a better person as well as a better creature on earth. Truthfulness is essential and it's better to speak the truth and follow the lie. 

Being dishonest will make you lose your honesty and people's trust. The truthful person doesn't have to worry about the truth being revealed.

Truthfulness in public life is accordingly an ethical ideal. Seeking to learn the truth and communicate it accurately to other people are virtues that are necessary to a common form of life characterized by trust, respect and the protection of human dignity.

"THE GREATEST ADVANTAGE OF SPEAKING THE TRUTH IS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAID."

हकीकत - खुश राजपुरोहित

कहते हैं वो हमें भींगना नहीं आता

बादल की तरह कभी बरस कर तो देखो

कागज़ की कश्ती एक हम भी बनाएंगे

आंगन से कभी हमारे गुज़र के तो देखो।

कहते हैं वो हमें इठलाना नहीं आता

सर्द हवाओं सी गुज़र कर तो देखो

स्पर्श से तुम्हारे संवर जाऊंगा, मैं

सांसें हमारी कभी छु कर तो देखो।

कहते हैं वो हमें उभरते नहीं आता

सुरज के तरह चमक कर तो देखो

पलकें झुका कर हम सुनते रहेंगे

आंखे उठा कर कुछ कह कर तो देखो।

वो कहते है हम में बचपना नहीं है

बर्फ की तरह बरस कर तो देखो

मासूमियत ज़रा तुम्हें हम भी दिखाएंगे

अपनी गोद का सिरहाना बना कर तो देखो।

भींगना इठलाना हमें भी आता है

तुम मौसम के तरह उभर कर तो देखो

अंदाज हमारा ज़रा हम भी दिखाएंगे

ख्वाबों से हकीकत में कभी आ कर तो देखो।

रोज आते हैं बादल

छेड़ जाता है सूरज,

ये हवाएं भी अपनी सी लगती है

वो छवि जो सपनों में देखीं थीं हमने

वो शायद हकीकत में किसी से तो मिलती है

क्या देखीं होगी उन्होंने भी हमारी छवि

और सपने हमारे और हमारी शिकायतों को लेकर,

चलो अब मिल जाओ कहीं नींदों से परे

सपनों को हकीकत बना कर तो देखो।

मिल जाए कहीं तो जाने ना देंगे

खुद में उन्हें समां लेंगे हम

एक टक हमें बस सुनते रहे वो

और बस हंस कर बातें सुनाते रहे हम

और बस हंस कर बातें सुनाते रहे हम।।

कोरोना को हराना है - हेतल वैष्णव

कोरोना को हराना है

मिलकर कोरोना को हराना है,

घर से हमें कहीं नहीं जाना है,

हाथ किसी से नहीं मिलाना है,

चेहरे पर हाथ नहीं लगाना है,

बार-बार अच्छे से हाथ धोते जाना है,

सेनेटाइज करके देश को स्वच्छ बनाना है,

बचाव ही इलाज है, यह समझाना है,

कोरोना से हमें नहीं घबराना है,

सावधानी रखकर कोरोना को मिटाना है,

देशहित में सभी को यह कदम उठाना है।

Cooking is Love - Kesar Sompura

Cooking is a good hobby which I have. I cook many dishes at home; I also bake cakes of different flavours like chocolate, vanilla strawberry etc.

I can show my creativity through, and I really enjoy cooking. I love to try new dishes. In the beginning, when I didn't know how to make dishes, I started watching dishes from YouTube and tried to make them so. I used to stand with my mother in the kitchen and watch how she cooked. It is a good activity to engage our minds. I love it because cooking gives me a chance to be creative. Cooking is one of the best ways to learn important life skills. I love to mix flavours and taste them. It's fun to cook. I bake a cake on the birthday of my family members.
