Health is Wealth
Health is not a luxury everyone is blessed with. “Health is wealth” is a saying that can be found in almost any language or culture, and it is absolutely true. If you lose your health, nothing else in life holds importance.
Health deteriorates for many reasons. Illnesses can occur at any point, and so, we need to invest our time and effort on our wellbeing and health. Good physical as well as mental health ensures a smooth lifestyle. A balanced and controlled lifestyle with enough attention to healthy food, proper exercise, balanced diet and intake of water and nutrients is required. Apart from that, mental health and wellbeing should also be treated equally.
Balance of healthy and tasty food, fun and fitness is the ideal way to take care of the biggest gift we have received: our body.

Late night Flames
It was a Saturday night and I was all alone at home when suddenly I saw smoke coming out of our neighbours’ kitchen window.
I ran out of my house to see what was happening. I was shocked to see that the entire kitchen had caught flames but luckily, there was no one home. I panicked but came back home and called the fire department. I also shouted and tried to ask for help from the other neighbours. In only a few seconds, some people had gathered around the burning house. By then, the flames had reached other rooms too. The fire truck arrived and they were rapidly trying to distinguish the fire.
By the time the owners arrived, the fire had been put out. Everyone applauded my quick thinking. I was extremely shocked but glad that I could help.
