Similarly, humankind also depends on water. All the major industries require water in some form or the other. Water makes upto 70% of the earth but only 3% of it is freshwater in use. Rest all is sea water which is saline. Then also, this precious resource is depleting day by day. The majority of the reasons behind it are man-made only. It creates a water crisis.

25 May 2022  Wednesday  Dear Diary, Today, I felt relaxed and comfortable by completing reading a book called "Notes To Myself" by Hugh Prather. It is a collection of wise thoughts written by Prather about society, his emotions, about himself in the form of notes. The author tells his struggles to be a good husband, a good dad, a citizen, and a person himself.   At first, when I started reading this book, I felt no more relating to the lines he wrote but when I understood the deep meaning hidden inside these quotes. I felt emotional. Notes written in the book are the personal opinions of the author which feel connected to the author. Every note is unique by itself, For example, The note on the next page would be based on a different issue with a new meaning rather than connecting to the past issue. This makes me know more about the problems he faced. His emotions in this book are beautifully described.  This summer vacation reading this book was a gr...

क्योंकि हम भारतीय हैं। दक्षिण की मद्रास हो या उत्तर की कश्मीर हिंदू हो या मुस्लिम, गरीब हो या अमीर   सभी लड़े आजादी के लिए, जब भारत था गुलाम जो बलिदान दिए, उन शूरवीरों को सलाम। हर कठिन समय मे हम एक-दूसरे के साथ हैं, क्योंकि हम भारतीय हैं।। दिवाली हो या रमज़ान हो, महावीर जयंती हो या ईस्टर हो, गणतंत्र दिवस हो या स्वतंत्रता दिवस, एकता की भावना जगाते हुए मनाते हैं सुदिवस, हर त्यौहार पर हम एक जुट हो जाते हैं, क्योंकि हम भारतीय हैं।। क्रिकेट हो या हॉकी हो, शतरंज हो या कैरम, खेल जो भी हो, हर हार-गीत पर हम मिलजुल कर दुख- सुख बाँटते हैं, क्योंकि हम भारतीय हैं।। इस महामारी के समय भी, हम दूसरों के साथ हैं। क्योंकि हम भारतीय हैं।। - तनीशा साहू कक्षा 8 'ब' Also read on Wattpad

It was my third time interviewing after two big companies rejected me for my lack of confidence. Four months ago, I had a good job at Mr Park's Office but I left it. The office wasn't that bad but I had to do the work of my colleague as he got me employed. He used to threaten me to do it for him otherwise he would expel me from my job as he had a good relationship with Mr Park. I couldn't bear the pressure for long so resigned from the job soon. An unexpected heavy rain started pouring, I ran as fast as I could and stood inside an old shelter. There, I saw an old woman of seventy coming towards me from that old  dark shelter holding a white towel in her hand. "Take it my child" she told gently and gave me the towel. I could just hear her voice until I saw her, That innocent face with doe eyes seemed familiar to me.  I remember her, She was Grand...
