People who crib, gossip, rumor are the ones who are not tolerated for long. While conversing it is important not to hurt the feelings and sentiments of others. One should not boast about one’s achievements or make egotist remarks.

In many families girls are brought up with a notion that they should not be heard but only be seen. But today times have changed. One must be articulate in this modern world to get through in your day to day life.

While meeting strangers it is better to converse on simple and sage topics instead of passing personal information or talking sensational and gossipy subjects. One should never cross the line and ask personal things if a person is not willing to discuss them. Discussing about the personal lives of people may also create a security problem for them.

It is important for a person to speak with respect and dignity. The mood and the tone should change according to the demands of the situation or circumstance. It is also imperative for a person to talk to the point where business and institutional conversations are concerned. with friends and acquaintances one can be condescending or familiar but with unknown people one needs to maintain a distance.

By
India has given to the world a great many scientists like Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose , Sir Vishweshwaraiya , SrinivasRamanujan , Sir C. V. Raman, Dr. Homi Bhabha, Dr. Vikram Sarabhai and Dr. Abdul Kalam. I admire them all. So many a times I keep wondering what “If I were a scientist” let me think. What can I do for the best of my Country, my people and all of the above for all the living beings residing on earth. How can I be useful to humanity?

[Essay] The pleasures and pains of youth

The period of teenage is a short but a beautiful one. We begin our teens when we are “thirteen” and we end it with “nineteen”. It is also called a period of adolescence – when you are neither a child nor an adult. It is a time for privacy but on the other hand there is a lot of peer pressure. You start growing up and understanding your physical qualities and understanding the importance of looking good. You look out for a role model – a wrong model can put your life in jeopardy. The right role model can uplift your life. You want to act grown up but you lack the confidence, so many times you act in an immature manner creating problems for our own selves. We do not appreciate parental advice and we feel it is too condescending. Parents also refuse to understand this phase of the child. Actually parents should be made friends and role model as they always wish the best for their children. Lack of reading and too much dependency on TV, computers , internet and films, can lead to
