     God helps those who help themselves        There is an amusing story that illustrates the national character. There were four students in an English tutorial group at an American college. an American, an Englishman, a German, and an Indian. The tutor asked them to write an essay on "The Camel ". The American chartered a plane and flew to the Sahara to photograph the camel and collect first-hand information about it. The Englishman started writing there and then. The German went to a library to read all he could about the subject so as to make complete preparations for writing the essay. the Indian went to his room, sat down, folded his hands, closed his eyes, and prayed to God to write the essay for him.           We are only too prone to depend upon God or someone else for carrying out our tasks. That is why we see so very little work or no work done around us. When we do not rely upon God. we expect others, our fellow-being. to do our chores for us. This is a wrong and

  Essay on where there is a will, there's away           A pupil may think that to secure a first-class at an examination is beyond his reach, an engineer may feel that the harnessing of the tidal sea-wave to run the machinery is impracticable; a medical researcher may think that a particular disease is incurable. But if each one of these makes a firm resolve to achieve his goal and applies himself to it whole-heartedly, it is almost certain that success will crown his resolute efforts. History often bears out the truth of this assertion. At one time, flying in the air was regarded as a flight of fancy. But today we see that these seemingly impossible things have become possible. The airplane, the spaceship, the radio, the television are now realities.          How have these impossibilities been achieved? The answer is clear and simple. By man's supreme will -power, determination, and dedication. The great doer is never a pessimist or a defeatist. He is a daunt him and can def

     Essay on Charity begins at home        Charity means an act or attitude of kindness, generosity, or benevolence, usually expressed through some kind of help in the form of cash or kind. The help is usually extended to those who are needy or are suffering and is motivated by the feeling of sympathy, pity, or compassion.            The saying 'charity begins at home ' really means that our first duty is to help our family. Our family should have the first claim upon our benevolent act. Our resources in the form of money, materials, energy, or time should be used to help the members of our family first. If we extend the meaning of the word 'home' the saying will guide us in the matter of the order in which our resources should be used to help the needy. The first to deserve our help is, of course, our family. Then, if we have extra resources, we should use these to help our village, our district, and our country, and so on.           The truth behind this saying is ea

                                                                        Experience is the best teacher    If we warn a child not to touch fire. he may not listen to the warning and may be curious to know what actually happens if he touches fire. But as soon as he touches the fire and gets burned a valuable lesson, which he will never forget throughout his life. He now knows that he will get burnt if he touches fire, and will in the future, avoid touching the fire. Experience taught him what mere advice or warning failed to do.           We can thus see that experience is the best teacher. In life,  we learn so many things through so many sources. We learn from books,  from teachers, from wise men, from saints, a chilli taster from the examples of others and from nature. But most of the knowledge we get from this source is indirect. For direct knowledge we need to have personal experience, for example, we cannot know what chilli tasters like, how ice feels what the sunset looks like, wh
