Patriotism

Patriotism is how we show our love and our readiness to serve our country. If we are patriotic, we must be loyal to our country and not our ethnic group. Patriots must speak well of their country at all times. If patriots are outside their country, they must not say or do anything that will harm the country, even if they are not happy with the Government. If patriots are called to serve their country in any way, either in time of peace or war, they should be ready to serve. If there had been no patriotism on a country, the country would have not existed. A patriotic person must place the country above the state or ethnic group.
    As citizens of a country, we should be loyal to our government. We should pay our taxes, defend our nation at all times, show respect for our leaders and all national symbols, be honest in all our dealings with fellow citizens and, above all, keep and defend the constitution or laws of the nation. Being a good citizen also means respect for national identity. That is, a patriotic citizen respects the symbols of a nation, those things by which a nation is known or identified. The main symbols of a nation are the national anthem, the national flag, the national pledge, the armed forces, the coat of arms, a single currency, common boundaries and cultural artefacts, as well as the language we speak and the way we dress, so that we can be easily identified.
    Respect for national identity gives us a sense of unity. So that we can defend our country, if we call our country a calabash other countries will use it as waste bin. So it's always advisable for one to loves his country.

Why kids run away

Why Kids Run Away Remember how you felt the last time you got in a big fight with your parents or one of your brothers or sisters? That kind of anger and hurt can be what pushes someone to run away from home.These are problems faced by lots of kids and teens — and there are ways to deal with all of these problems besides running away. Kids who think about running away might not know how to solve tough problems or don't have adults to help them. Sometimes a really big problem can make it seem like running away is the only choice. Unfortunately, the problems kids hope to escape by running away are replaced by other — sometimes even bigger — problems of life on the streets. When you think about running away, you probably imagine that there will be no more rules, no parent to tell you what to do, no more fights. Sounds great and exciting, right? In reality, running away is anything but fun. Kids and teens who run away face new problems like not having any money, food to eat, a s...

THE RIVER CROSSING.

It is no military secret that an opposed river crossing operation is difficult even under ideal conditions. But without adequate standard equipment and with a poor level of training of soldiers and officers, it could become impossible. But the Army Headquarters and Supreme Headquarters had strongly advised against embarking on an opposed river crossing because of inadequacy of equipment and deficiency in the training of troops for such a semi-specialist operation. The Supreme Headquarters had advised on unopposed crossing while the division passed through 1 Division's secure position to capture the town. The Division commander decided to take a grave and calculated risk that could be called bravado. But if the operation had been successful, as it nearly was, it would have been one of the most praiseworthy operations of the entire war. In the end, it failed and the commander had to take the blame for it.     The first landing, in which the Division Commander himself took part,...

HERNIA

Hernia occurs in an individual when part of the intestine pushes through the wall of the abdomen and appears as a bulge at the site. There are many sites where hernia can occur, although the commonly encountered type is that found in the groin. This type of hernia is known as femoral or inguinal hernia. Hernia may occur on the navel or near it. The hernia which occurs on the navel is called umbilical hernia, while that which occurs close to it is known as paraumbilical hernia. These two types of hernia are less common than the femoral type.   Groin hernia occurs more commonly in males, but can also occur in females in a few cases. In this kind of hernia, there is a weakness in the abdominal wall in the groin region about midway across the groin. It may appear on either side or, sometimes on both sides. A good sign is that swelling increases, initially it can be pushed back manually into the body. Later on, it gets bigger still and lies almost permanently outside the body, especi...
