MORNING WALK

          Hiking provides the greatest pleasure to a man, whether you go by yourself or in the company of others. Some people prefer to go alone because then they can think calmly and quietly on many serious problems of the day. Mahathma Gandhi was one of them. He walked very fast every morning but he was accompanied by his disciples they discussed many problems of the day as they walked.
         Hikers and tramps are found everywhere in the world. Some go out on long walks for pleasure, some do it for health.Some go out for hikes because they feel bored at home and do not find anything worthwhile to do. In an effort to run away from themselves,they just run away from home. In the new surroundings they find a new interest. They see greener fields and pastures new. During hiking  they make new friends and sometime this friendship blooms in to business ventures or a romance and even marriage.
            Some people have hiking as their hobby.Whatever time they can spare, they spend it on hiking.They have an intense desire to go on and on.They are extraordinary walkers and this gives them a lasting source of joy and pleasure.
             During hiking one enjoys the beauties of nature and feels quiet fresh and health.One can study birds and animals and learn from their habits.One can enjoy the beauty of flowers, plants and trees. Hiking in the mountains is no eternal joy.When the sun rises on the snow-capped mountains, it is a rare phenomenon.

He mostly rejected formal schooling; he spent much time being taught at home. In 1878 he travelled to England and sought to study law at University College, London, but he left before finishing the degree. After returning to India, in 1901, Tagore moved to Shantiniketan to found an ashram which became his focal point for writing and his view on schooling. He chose the name for the ashram – Shantiniketan meaning ‘Abode of Peace’ Tagore was firm friends with Gandhi and a...

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE

This proverb means that we should be careful about our health. If we take certain steps, we shall save ourselves from falling ill. We should go out for a walk, take excercise, should not over-eat and should sleep in time. Falling ill is a curse. We have to roll helplessly in the bed. Even after recovering, we are not able to do our work for months. Therefore, we should always take proper care of our health. We should not do anything which may cause harm to health. We should not worry unnecessarily. We must take milk and fruits, we should clean our teeth, massage our body. We should take our bath in clean water everyday. If we take these precautions, we shall never fall ill.
