Dear Diary,
Today I am going to share a very touching experience I had today. I got an
opportunity to visit an old age home. It is a kind of home for those old people
who for some reasons cannot stay with their grown-up children or those who
don’t have any family member to take care of them.
I felt very emotional interacting with an old lady. Although she is an affluent
woman, she has to live in the home because both her daughters are married
and well-settled. Her husband passed away long ago. She said she had opted
to live at the Home for many facilities such as safety, security, lodging and
boarding, and the most important thing--company of peers.

12. I was so sad and depressed to see that there are such homes where the old people
have to live without families. I personally feel people living in such old age homes
feel very lonely and abandoned. The old people need their sons, daughters,
grandchildren to live happily. Thinking about the old lady, I feel why is it that in our
country the old fathers and mothers cannot live with their married daughters’
families?
I have decided that I shall be visiting the old age home regularly now to give
company to the old people living there.

Question: Today you fought with your best friend in school. You came back home

Dear Diary,
Today had been the worst day of my life. I had a fight with my best friend in
school. He had never been so rude to me. Today he fought with me over a trivial
issue. I had borrowed a pen from him as I had forgotten mine at home. By mistake
that pen fell down from my hand and it stopped working. On realizing this, he
started fighting with me and persuaded me to get a new pen for him right then.
I could not even understand what went wrong and I was so hurt that I could not
speak anymore. Later on, a common friend told me that someone had told him
some wrong things about me and had created that misunderstanding.
I thought that, that wasn't the right time to talk to him. Tomorrow I'll return his
pen to him and would also try to sort out the matter.
