Just Imagine
You are standing outside the school gate. The gate is closed because you reached school late. You look like a fool. The gatekeeper asks you to go home. You feel ashamed.
Do You know why this happened? Because you didn’t value time. You should be careful in planning what to do at particular time.
Think, what would you do?
Watch T.V. all the time or take rest and play outdoors?

Watching T.V.

This little boy is Manu. He loves to watch T.V. After coming from school he will not take rest or sleep. He will switch on the T.V. and enjoy. Mom would ask him to take rest but he will not obey her, he will not do any school work and never help his mother at
home.
All the time he would sit in front of T.V. He would never sit on dining table for lunch. Instead he will keep on eating all junk food. One day he felt pain in his eyes. Mom took him to the doctor.
The doctor told her, “Your son’s eyes are weak now. He will have to wear spectacles. He then got his weight checked up too.
“Oh! my God, it’s 40 kg, the doctor said. “This is too much for a child. It is because he never went to play outdoors.”
One day Manu’s friends came to his house. They were to go to attend Kashish’s birthday party. They asked him to get ready soon. But as usual Manu said, “Let me watch this cartoon show. You go, I will join you in ten-fifteen minutes.
All his friends went away. Manu was so keen in watching T.V., that he forgot his word. Soon his mom came to remind him. She gave him a gift and the dress. “You are already late for the party, said his mom Manu changed and ran to Kashish’s house.
When he reached the party was over. All were saying bye to each other “Manu, you are late. We all had great fun”, said Kashish.
Manu felt sad and ashamed. He promised everyone there that he will do everything in time and never watch T.V. for so long.
