Criticism

Have you ever realised that people don’t think twice before criticising others?

The truth behind criticism is the expression of rejection someone has on the basis of faults or mistakes. It is quite acceptable that friends criticise in order to prevent the person making the same mistakes in future.

But excessive criticism often hurts others. So, one should be careful to the negative aspects of criticism.

Highly successful people

We all know that habits can either make or break us. Bad habits grow into a lifestyle that takes us away from the things that we should focus on and good habits can help us create a life that’s full of action and accomplishment.

Reading is an essential element in success, books contain a lot of knowledge. Successful people use their spare time to reset and plan. They realise their journey is unique and they have to use their time in only useful activities.

Trees are vital

Trees are the poems that the Earth writes on the sky. In our daily life trees play a vital role. We can’t ignore them because they are necessary for all the living organisms. They provide shelter to animals and oxygen to all living things.

The absence of trees can disturb the carbon cycle. It will result in a higher amount of carbon dioxide and lower amount of oxygen.

Many animals can’t live without forests. Forest provides them with shelter. If trees vanished from earth, then our environment will be badly affected. We cannot imagine life without trees.

Patience is a virtue

This is in reference to the article “Patience is a virtue” written by Areesha Shafqat (YW, September 8).

It is a well-written article that explained that it doesn’t matter if something you worked hard for didn’t happen the way you wanted.

This happens in everyone’s life because life is all about ups and downs. Allah will reward you for your struggle because He is the most Merciful.
