‘All rivers flow into the sea’. It may sound a direct statement and of course a virtually true phenomena to you all. But moving onto a philosophical mode, there may be different interpretation of this idea.
Good morning everyone, I ishita gupta of class XI commerce section stand here to deliver a speech onto the topic-“all rivers flow into the sea”.
Yes, I know that all rivers flow into the sea and lose their individuality but this topic, when seen from a different angle can teach a great lesson of life.
Friends, just as journey of thousand leagues began beneath ones; all disciples’ follow one mentor; all trees make one forest; all rivers flow into the sea, similarly all our small aims take us the big and ultimate goal of our life.
But, millions of words, lakhs of examples and thousands of meanings would be short to explain this 6 words line.
Well being straight I will say the beginning matters. Let me share a great saying by Julia Cameron with you:
The grace to be a beginner is always the best prayer for an artist. Beginner’s humility and openness leads to exploration, exploration leads to accomplishment and all of it begins at the beginning with the very first positive step.
I can also say that, it is better to master small skills than to accumulate a big fortune.
And this is not only true for humans but Bible, Quran, Geeta and Gurugranth teach us the way to reach the same God. Also it is like using a lift or an elevator or a staircase to reach the same floor. Or I may say it is like studying in resonance or bansal or fiit-jee to crack just one exam i.e IIT.
My clear cut interpretation was on the real words i.e all rivers flow into the sea.
So here I rest my river of words and hope that you all will take this message seriously and into account in your life.
Thank you and have a nice day… :-)

Author Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, "Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow." I think that Emerson is trying to say that if one never tries to exceed their limits they will never grow. Mastering something is an accumulation of things, as time progresses you build on what you have learned and what you know. I agree with Emerson because he or she will never know what they are capable of, he or she will make more money if make more money if they master something, and they may regret their decision. If one does not try they may never know what they are capable of. If I stopped trying I would not be able to do basic math, but because I kept trying I am now in advanced math. Many great scientist,…

Ralph Waldo Emerson once stated, "Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow." I've read the statement over and over in my head and I can't seem to agree with him because of my literal comprehension of the quote. If you have been able to master something in the first place, don't you have to grow from somewhere to get there? Personally, I have yet to master a particular thing in my hobbies and sports. Yet, I still feel as I am growing in those activities. For example track; I excel in the 100 meter sprint and I've been given a natural gift for it yet I haven't mastered it like Usain Bolt or Tyson Gay. Though I still feel as I am honestly growing as an athlete in the event. I also have a passion for photography…
