Well, starting with how I met depression. At the age of 12, I lo.docxjane3dyson92312
Well, starting with how I met depression. At the age of 12, I lost my grandfather to Cancer. It was a shock for me to hear that my grandfather is gone. I still remember when my older sister came to me crying, and told me that our grandfather passed away. I pushed her and said no! You’re lying. I went to my mother and asked where my grandfather was. She hugged me and cried badly. I wasn’t prepared for at this sad news, because my grandfather was everything to me. I then ran towards his room to see him but I found nobody there. I started shouting and calling my grandfather. I used to call him daddy. I was shouting dadddyyy where are you? Daddy, daddy. But he didn’t answer me. Usually when I came back from school I shouted daddy where you are? And most of the times he was in the living room hiding behind the curtains, trying to scare me by making all sort of sounds. I knew that there’s no ghost over there, that it my grandfather but I used to overreact as if I was afraid and then he hugged me, took out sweets from his pocket and said” My doll is getting afraid, next time I’ll scold this ghost who scares my little princess. After that, we both laughed together. I used to tell him my whole day routine, everything I have done in school. All the stories and incidents that happened over there. And he used to suggest how to react in every situation. What’s good or bad for me? I was attached to my grandfather a lot. He meant the world to me. I remember when was ill. He was diagnosed with liver cancer. I was only 11 years old then, I didn’t know exactly what sort of this disease it was. My father used to take daddy to the hospital everyday, and I wasn’t allowed to go with them. Those days were worst day of my life. I used to write letters to my daddy that it was okay if I am not supposed to see you but I needed to you etc. He started chemotherapy therapy, and this was not an easy treatment to deal with. There are ups and downs. And there was a time came when doctors clearly said that he can die at any time. After listening to this life-ending sentence, my father cried badly. He used to spend his most of the time with daddy. One day, when I was back from school, my father came and said daddy is calling you. I was like oh wow now I can meet him after a week. And I rushed towards his room. As I entered he was lying on his bed, for an instance I thought that he is someone else. He was not looking like my daddy. He became too weak. And then I asked my father he is not my daddy. Where he is? My father didn’t replied but left the room while crying. I was staring at my daddy. And when he called me “my little princess come here” I recognized his voice. I ran towards him and asked what had happened to you? He said nothing I am fine. But you know one day everybody has to leave this planet. You have to make a promise to me that you will take a lot of care of your parents. You will become my brave girl. You will always consider what I taught to you. At that moment .

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. My little brother’s name is Arthur. This afternoon, I pushed himinto
thepool. He fell in witha big splashand startedmaking glug glug
sounds. Just whenI thought he was about to drown, he managedto cry
out for help and momand dad came running.
Momwas crying becauseshe thought that Arthur was dead. He wasn’t.
The doctor came and Arthur is doing very well now. He askedfor cake
with jamand, eventhoughtit was 8 o’clockand past his bedtime, my
mother gave it to himanyway.
3. Arthur was very happy and very proud withall the attentionhe
was getting. Everybody was asking himquestions. Momasked
himhow he had fallen into the pool. Arthur just said he
slipped. It was Smart of himto say that. He knows mom hates a
tattle-tale.
The other day, whenI was wrapping a skipping rope around
his neck, he struggled out of my grip and ran to complain to
mom. He said I had been trying to strangle him. Mom told him
he shouldn’t say suchthings and gave hima good spanking.
When dad came home and found out what Arthur said, he was
also very angry. Arthur didn’t get any dessert. Then he
understood. This time, he knewbetter than to tell momI
pushedhiminto the pool.
4. I also asked momif I couldhave cake with jam. I asked her three
times, but she pretended not to hear me. Maybe she suspects that I
was theone who pushed Arthur.
Before, I was always nice and kind to Arthur, becausemomand dad
spoiled me as much as they spoiledhim. Whenhe got a new toy car,
I got a new doll. Momwould never have givenArthur cake without
giving it to me as well. But last month, momand dad completely
changed.
5. Now, they devote all their attentionto Arthur. He gets gifts all the time. It has made him
very big-headed. He was always a bit of a pain in the neck, but nowhe is insufferable. He is
constantly asking for this and that. Momand dadalways give him whatever he asks for.
The only time they scoldedhim was the day I triedto strangle him with the skipping rope.
That was funny because, for once, it wasn’t his fault.
I wonder why momand dad suddenly stopped loving me. It looks like I am no longer their
little girl. Whenever I Kissmomon the cheek, she doesn’t evensmile. Dadis the same way.
Whenthey go for a walk, I always tag along, but they don’t pay any attentionto me. If I’m
playing on the roador doing something dangerous, they don’t evencare.
Arthur can be nice occasionally, but most of the time, he refuses to play withme. The other
day, I askedhim why momand dad had become so cold to me. He lookedup at me with
a sly smile and refusedto answer. He did it on purpose to enrage me. That was the day
I wrappedthe skipping rope aroundhis neck. I was so mad that, despite the spanking he
had received, I went intohis roomafterwards and told him that I would kill him.
6. This afternoon, he told me that mom, dad and him
were goingto the seaside and that they weren’t
bringing me withthem. Then, he laughed and stuck
out his tongue and made faces at me. So I pushed
himintothe pool.
Arthur is sleeping now and momand dad are
watching TV. The skipping rope was just lying in the
garden, so I pickedit up. In a moment, I’ll sneak into
Arthur’s bedroomand, this time, I won’t give hima
chance to scream. That way, momand dad will be
forcedto go to the seaside without him. And after they
leave, I’ll go down to the end of the gardenand climb
back into that horrible whitebox they buriedme in…
