Modern life is very stressful. People have to manage their time and other resources very carefully. How can they look after themselves when they are so busy?
-----------------------------------------------------------
“Health is Wealth” is a proven fact best known to every one. If people work for wealth at the cost of their health, that is wrong. Health comes at first and wealth at second. No doubt the era is very fast and competition is tough in every field, and survival is for the fittest. In this scenario stress is inevitable, however one has to manage his or her stress in such a way that an individual’s efficiency and health is not affected, and one can manage his or her time and recourses effectively. In this essay we shall see some ways to manage stress.
Relaxation: Sit down at a comfortable place, close your eyes and suggest to your self, “I am calm. I feel relaxed. My hands are relaxed. My legs are relaxed. My torso is relaxed. My shoulders and neck are relaxed. My entire body is relaxed. I feel relaxed and calm. This process is called autosuggestion.
Visit nearest outing spot: Go to the harbor, the nearest beach, a lake, river bank or garden. Just sit there and feel it, smell it, hear it. You will feel relaxed.
Walking: Take a thirty minute walk. Try to relax while you walk. Don’t think of your current problems. Try to sense the smells, sounds, impressions and what you see and feel. You will feel relaxed.
Music: Listen to slow and light melodious music. You shall feel more relaxed.
Laughter: When you are stressed, laugh loudly in front of mirror. Remember “Laughter is the best medicine”.
Summarizing, one must find time to relax. If one relaxes as per above program he or she shall be able to manage available time and resources effectively without stress and look after own self.

General about Car A/C
General about Car A/C
No wonder more folks are dying from cancer than ever before. We wonder where this stuff comes from but here is an example that explains a lot of the cancer causing incidents. Hmmm. Many people are in their cars first thing in the morning and the last thing at night, 7 days a week. As I read this, it makes me feel guilty and ill. Please pass this on to as many people as possible. Guess it’s not too late to make some changes.
Car A/C (Air Conditioning) MUST READ!!!
Please do NOT turn on A/C as soon as you enter the car.
Open the windows after you enter your car and turn ON the AC AFTER a couple of minutes.
Here’s why:
According to a research, the car dashboard, sofa, air freshener emit Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin (carcinogen – take time to observe the smell of heated plastic in your car).
In addition to causing cancer, Benzene poisons your bones, causes anaemia and reduces white blood cells.
Prolonged exposure will cause Leukaemia, increasing the risk of cancer and miscarriage.
Acceptable Benzene level indoors is 50mg per sq.ft. A car parked indoors with windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene.
If parked outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F, the Benzene level goes up to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level.
People who get into the car, keeping windows closed will inevitably inhale, in quick succession, excessive amounts of the toxin.
Benzene is a toxin that affects your kidney and liver… What’s worse, it is extremely difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.
So friends, please open the windows and door of your car – give time for interior to air out -dispel the deadly stuff – before you enter.
Thought: ‘When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others.’ Hence I have put it on my blogs please.

“Make Important Change In School”
If you could make one important change in a school that you attended, what change would you make? Use reasons and specific examples to support your answer.
-------------------------------------------
Single most important change that I would like to make in my school is that teaching of English shall start from day one of the Grade—1. In this essay I shall elaborate on my viewpoint.
I studied in a school in Rajasthan—India. There teaching of English Language would start only from seventh grade. Similar is the case with other states in India like Gujarat, Bihar, UP and MP etc. Because of this students would study English for a short spell of time; pass out Matriculation and start college education where although English would not be a compulsory subject but medium of instruction would be English. As a result of this, students face tremendous amount of difficulties in grasping the subjects and they can’t perform well in their final examinations.
Schools in the new age are becoming a larger and larger driving force in popular culture. Schools perform large tasks for current world events. It is only the school education that opens many avenues for earning, a good employment and handsome salary thereby one does not only earn for livelihood but also creates wealth. Also one can make his or her dreams of becoming Doctor, Engineer, Businessman, Actor, Scientist, Pilot and Astronaut come true. In this extremely fast era of computerization and advance technology quite high level of education is the need of the hour.
In nutshell, as a change, I shall ensure that English as a language is taught right from day one a student is enrolled in Grade: 1. that make students thorough and fluent in Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing of English and students can successfully communicate in English and fare well in examinations with high score.

“Losing Important Natural Resources”
Many parts of the world are losing important natural resources, such as forests, animals, or clean water. Choose one resource that is disappearing and explain why it needs to be saved. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
--------------------------------------------
Population is dramatically rising day and on. This rise in population gives rise to higher demand of every thing; like food, water, housing, industries, and business avenues. As a result, world over, natural resources like land, water, forests and livestock etc are depleting very fast.
Higher demand of housing and industrialization is aggravating depletion of land and clean water. Power generation consumes gigantic volume of water. However power is the most essential for human progress and development. Secondly because of increased housing and industrialization we lose huge area of agricultural land thereby causing reduction in crop produce and food crises. Extensive housing, greater industrialization, construction of roads, bridges and massive airports etc do not only result into depletion of land and water resource but also give rise to high degree of pollution; heat generation and global warming that is most alarming. Furthermore increased extensive use of automobiles; in addition to pollution and global warming; give rise to environment pollution and depletion of oil and gas resource. Oil is one of the precious natural resource; well known as “Black Gold”.
The resource that is disappearing is the animal resource. Because of deforestation, species lose their habitat and may die. Those animals some times migrate toward towns and are killed by human beings. Sometimes very large vessels carrying crude oil via sea may leak thereby polluting sea water resulting into killing of fishes, crocodiles, turtles, dolphins, and other under water species. Improper waste disposal or effluent also can cause water pollution thereby harming under water creatures. Animals are used for cultivating, poultry, and milk production and material handling and transport.
Summarizing, animal resource is the one that is disappearing. This needs attention and human consideration.

“Live Performance & Concert versus Television”
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Attending a live performance (for example, a play, concert, or sporting event) is more enjoyable than watching the same event on television. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
------------------------------------------------
I prefer to attend live shows in cases of concerts. This is mainly because concerts are rare and shall not be so soon telecasted. However those may be telecasted only after a long interval of time. But many movies from film industry are repeatedly available on Television and those can be viewed sitting in our comfortable arm chair with push back type high back seat. The main advantage and pleasure of attending a live concert is that you see many celebrities in person giving their performances that is most exciting. Imagine some one watching pictures of his or her darling and on the other hand seeing them in person. The latter one is very much pleasurable obviously.
Secondly you come across very high class, sophisticated and aristocrat gentry. Also you can see the eager and the excitement of the audience that is highly exciting in itself which otherwise one can not enjoy sitting at home and watching TV. One can make and develop new contacts that are beneficial for social life as well as for business.
However a sports event like Wimbledon Tennis, World Cup Cricket or even one day international matches it is not possible for every one to get entry there and watch personally. However if one has enough time and money he or she can watch. But very busy business class people can watch those events on television.
In conclusion, watching concerts and sports live and on television have their own merits.
Depending upon viewers’ type of business, availability of time etc one can either attend live program or watch it on television. I don’t see any demerits in any mode irrespective of witnessing it live or watching it on television.

“Live In Small Town or Big City”
Some people prefer to live in a small town. Others prefer to live in a big city. Which place you would prefer to live in? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.
-----------------------------------------------
I would prefer to live in a small town instead of a big city. In this essay I shall discuss advantages of living in a small town.
Big cities are over populated and overcrowded. Because of this there are a huge number of buildings, automobiles, air conditioners and various other infrastructure facilities. This turns a big city into a concrete jungle with enormous pollution and heat generation thereby creating and enhancing global warming.
Secondly excessive traffic results into accidents thus causing injuries to the people. Such injuries may result into partial disability, or permanent partial disability or total disablement. Some times such accidents are fatal resulting into deaths of people. However in small towns and country side villages’ possibilities of this danger can be more or less ruled out.
In small towns or countryside villages, thick population, localization of industries and offices is absent thereby environment is pollution free and healthy that is a basic requirement and paramount importance for a healthy living. Secondly farming and agriculture is the major industry in villages hence there is enormous greenery and ample of trees are there which give pure Oxygen to breathe. Secondly Cattle and Poultry in such a healthy atmosphere develop and grow very nicely. Also the milk and eggs, meat etc are pure and fee from contamination.
However in small towns’ job opportunities may be little less as compared to a city hence younger generation may prefer to live in city for a better earning and career prospects.
In nutshell, taking into account the merits of staying in a small town or a countryside village, I would prefer to stay in a small town or countryside village for a healthy and peaceful living.

“Literacy More Important Now Than In Past”
Is the ability to read and write more important today than in the past? Why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
----------------------------------------
Literacy is the mother of education and that is “Most Important” today. Undisputedly everyone should learn and master the written language. Unless we are literate, we can not access the information needed today. Unlike olden age, in this era, requirement is not only to read the odd signposts on the roads. Now we are expected to absorb the full quantum of written and pictorial information that the Internet provides. We need considerably higher order of skills.
For example while at home we are most of the time with our television set, the visual media. Hence we need to be aware of all forms of media. We need to perceive, and manipulate precisely and correctly as to what is the message and how things work. Media presents huge amount of information especially the internet. Given this mass of information we need to have the skills necessary to understand and precisely pick through it. However, we must not only limit ourselves to see the impact part of the computer or the calculator that speedup and simplify the process but we must know how best to use them optimally. If these technologies are sensitively and intelligently used, they have the potential to influence and enhance our self development process and brighten our future.
We must develop genuinely new skills, required to use computers and navigate the web. Otherwise it is impossible to participate in society and keep pace with the time.
In summary, the Internet is the herald of the new era of access, enlightenment and freedom of information. Unlike early age simply our ability to read and write is not enough now we must be educated enough to keep pace with the time and succeed.
