❖ Real-Life Experience: ❖
❖ In a paragraph of 150 words write about how your mother and father try to balance their lives and responsibilities with their own dreams and wishes. Ask them what would really make them happy and why they think so.
My parents work hard every day to take care of the family. My father works long hours to earn money, while my mother manages the home and also supports the family in many ways. They have many dreams, but they always put the family first. I asked them what makes them happy. They said happiness comes from seeing their children succeed and live a good life. My father wishes to travel to new places, and my mother wants to learn new skills. They both feel proud of their efforts but sometimes wish they had more time for themselves. Even though they have responsibilities, they never complain. They believe that life is about love, sacrifice, and finding small joys in everyday moments.
❖ Life is a mixture of both good and bad fortune. We have to take life as it comes and face the challenges of life with fortitude. If we want to understand life in all its complexities, we need to endure the pain of life too. Now write a paragraph of about 150 words showing how the wheel of fortune keeps reminding us that we cannot always be at the top.
The Wheel of Fortune:
Life is full of ups and downs. One day, a person may be successful, and the next day, they may face problems. A businessman may earn a lot of money today but face losses tomorrow. A student may fail one exam but succeed later with hard work. No one can always be at the top. Difficult times teach important lessons and make people stronger. The key is to never give up, even when things go wrong. Fortune changes, but strong people stay hopeful. If someone loses today, they can win tomorrow. The wheel of life keeps turning, and everyone must learn to accept both good and bad times with courage.
