Advantages of travelling

Our forefather says that: “After a day’s travel, one gains a basketful of wisdom”. In fact, nobody can deny that we usually learn a lot after each trip. The more new places we visit, the more new things we learn. But some people say that traveling is not a good way, not everyone can afford to enjoy. To me, we should go traveling more because of its advantages.

Traveling makes us more modest and more reality. About modest, maybe at home we may think that we are the center of the world, and we are inclined to judge everything under our own conceptions. Traveling may change our way of thinking and widen our views of life. Observation and comparison will give us a right idea of what we really are. Thus, runs a Vietnamese say: “At home, mother is first and son is second; but when going out, they find that many others are better than themselves”. About reality, we can also learn so many new things about the land and the people through our daily dealing with people in different parts of localities which we will never learn from our reading or our lesson at school. Hence, we have a reality of view. For example, through TV, newspaper we know what is mountain, river, and how it is but through traveling we can see beautiful sights in direct: how jungle tropical is, how high mountain is, how deep river is, how immense sea is, etc. Therefore, traveling is the best way for us to be more reality and be conscious of the modest.

Traveling also served for relaxing and working. Newly married couples prefer going to a certain region with its beautiful scenery and its quiet atmosphere for their honeymoon. Elderly people or retired people prefer traveling to the places they have not had a chance to visit during their young age to know what the world is like before the end of their life. Scientists, biologists, and geologists, usually travel to remote regions to collect scientific data and information necessary for their research. For example, owing to traveling, Columbus discovered Africa and many other discoveries are made by traveling. Businessmen are the people who travel the most because they have to go abroad to look for new consumption markets, purchase material sources, and do market research. Above all things, traveling play an important role in our life.

Everything has its left side. Many people claim that traveling cost a lot of money for example traveling by plane, not everyone can afford. One more thing is fatigue, which happen while traveling because most of trip usually last very long. I admit that disadvantages and traveling is not totally a good way for those who do not have much time. But it is a little issue, we can solve easily. For instance, instead of traveling in original area by plane you can travel by train, use good service to avoid being fatigue. Traveling helps us enjoy the sense of freedom, get rid of tired, tense, responsibilities of hard work. That is a reason why more and more people go traveling.

Traveling is an essential part of education because of its advantages. As for me, I travel because I like to move from place to place, I can enjoy sense of natural sites. Traveling help me release stressed after tense semester at university. And after each trip, I feel that I bring back home something different from that I took on the departure day.

Should we get married early?

Nowadays, conception of young people about love and marriage is very simple. To them, it takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, a month to get married with someone. So getting married young is more and more popular in our society. In my opinion, this problem needs to be limited. I will analyze some disadvantages that they have to face.

Getting married early means losing some things in your life. First of all is freedom. Instead of going out with friends until mid night, you must stay at home to take care of your own family. Besides, at the weekend you also can not go shopping or go theater for entertaining, etc…All your hobbies have to change. In addition, only yourself, you do anything without giving much thought, but when you get married you have to give careful thought before acting with high responsibility. Then comes the time when will you have to think of buying a house for your own, providing it with furniture, and shopping other things necessary for your daily life. Once you spend all time for your living, you have no time to enjoy the life. The last one is you lose a chance to study further to improve your knowledge. And without further education, rarely do you make progress in your career. Thus, it makes you difficult in bringing up your children very well.

Despite this, getting married soon is also the way make you hurt easily. Because you are so young, you are not fully conscious of the responsibility of love and marriage. When you love, you look life through the rose-tinted-glasses, but only living together, you just realize that it does not come as your expectation. Besides, sometimes your marriage is the result of vague love not a real love. Therefore, you easily come to a divorce - destruction in the family.

However, some people say that getting married early also has advantage such as they no longer have to worry about taking care of their children well because of their old age. When they get older, the children are old enough to earn their own living and at that time the parents can enjoy leisure life beside grandchildren. In one aspect, I agree with this because they can bring up children better when they are strong enough to work. However, by any reason, in reality our life, not many people who get married and have children at their young age can have good condition of living. And the bad effects that they must encounter are not simple. In short, getting married soon is not good for young people.

Marriage is a sacred thing and a necessary stage of one’s life. And anyone always wants to have a happy marriage. To achieve that, we must have stable job and right conscious and an important thing is not getting married early, especially in our country. Because it really hard for young couple to support the children well. If the children do not have well brought up, they will do nothing for family and for society.

Uncle Ho_ the greatest father of Vietnamese people

If anyone ask me “Who is the greatest person in your country?” At that time, not only me but all Vietnamese also answer immediately without hesitating “ That is Uncle Ho”. He has gone down in history as a significant pride of Vietnam country. His contribution to our nation is extremely important and considerable such as: lead Vietnamese successfully in fighting against enemies to achieve freedom and happiness, build Vietnam from feudal country to socialist country, bequeath many valuable lesson about morality and thought for later generation.

The first important contribution that he brings for Vietnamese is freedom, independence, and happiness. Because of a fierce patriot, when enemy invade our country, he can not stand seeing our compatriot oppressed, he decide to go abroad to find solution to liberate country. He has gone many different countries, suffer many difficulties. Finally, after many years scurrying, he also succeed in searching a way to save his country. When he come back, he led Vietnamese fight against enemies with talent, bravery and union. As a result, nowadays, we can live in peace and independence country, enjoy freedom and happiness, have enough condition to study and work. Struggle to gain independence and freedom of the people of Vietnam has become a shining example and contribute positively encourage colonial nations in the continent to liberate their region. World map was redrawn for clarity changes. Vietnam's position in the international is enhanced markedly. So Uncle Ho is not only great person in original area but also in over the world. Thus, all of us must be grateful to him for his devotion.

Besides bringing freedom and happiness for our country, he also has make Vietnamese have a new life by building Vietnam from feudal country to socialist country. If in feudal period, you have to be oppressed, could not live with enough meaning of humanity, now with socialist, you can own your life, take part in building the machinery of government . So socialist is said that ” It is the most equal society in the world”. Moreover, Uncle Ho used to say that “ Communism is only to save mankind, giving everyone regardless of race and origin of freedom, equality, fraternity, solidarity and prosperity on earth, job for the sake of people, joy, peace, happiness, in short a world republic true” The purpose of socialism is to continuously raise the living standard of people, material life and culture of the people and built by the people. Therefore, this is one of the most contribution which Uncle Ho bring for Vietnam country.

Last but not least is valuable lesson about morality and thought which he bequeath. Our country, we are very happy to have a great revolutionary leader, a great person as President Ho Chi Minh who had left for the eternal moral example. Looking at this, we will see our soul become clearer, our actions is better, human personality is more advanced. It is example of great person but it is very simple, everyone can learn from to improve themselves. Some of them are: fierce patriot, union, saving, honesty, laborious, etc..

Uncle Ho, who is the greatest father of all Vietnamese people, is still in heart of Vietnamese although he goes far away forever because all things that he brought for Vietnam country help our nation have a new life and more developed. Once again, as a student we need to remember Uncle Ho’s saying: “ That nothing is more precious than independence and liberty” so that we try our best to study to maintain all sacred things we have.
