Our summer camp
Dear Counsellor,
I am looking forward to our summer camp too. I believe that it will be great. A lot of activities make the day more lovely and enjoyable.
I think a day trip to the lake would be better because we can go swimming and we can go paddling with a kayak. I believe that summer isn’t the perfect period to climb to the top of a mountain.
Also, I agree that we could have swimming lessons in the afternoon because lots of children want to go to the beach in the summer but they can’t swim and I think this is very dangerous. So these lessons could be an opportunity for them.
For lunch, you can prepare food which children love like burgers, pasta, fried potatoes and sausages.
Hope my ideas help,
Angeliki

The broken pot
In China, an old woman every day used to carry water from a well, a long way to home. She had two pots hanging on a pole across her neck. One of the pots was perfect but the other was cracked. The perfect pot carried every day the whole portion of the water, but the cracked one was always half full at the end of her long walk. This was happening every day and at the end of the way, the perfect pot was very proud of carrying all the water home. It felt ashamed because it could do less than it had been made to do.
One day the pot spoke to the old woman and said “I am ashamed because my crack doesn’t allow me carrying full water at home. I apologise”. The old woman smiled and kindly answered that it didn’t matter, because she always knew about the defect of the pot.”Have you noticed that there are beautiful flowers on your side along the path, but hot from the other side?” she asked.
“While I knew the water is leaking of your crack, I planted some flowers on the ground. So as we keep going along the path you allow the flowers to have some water. It doesn’t matter that you arrive home half full, because you water the beautiful flowers. So you are not useless”.
MORAL=Nobody is perfect. But it is important to turn out our defeats to be good.

The four candles
There were four candles, slowly burned their whisper almost could be heard in the darkness.
The first candle was heard to say “I am peace! unfortunately people can’t manage to keep me. The world is full of anger. Always there is a war on earth. Everyday people pass their time arguing and fighting nobody can keep me lit” and the flame of the candle blew out
The second candle said “I am faith, unfortunately, people have lost their faith. So, it doesn’t matter if I got blow out” and after these words, a breeze blew the candle’s flame.
The third candle was sad. It said “I am love. Unfortunately people don’t love each other any more. They don’t even love themselves. They can’t understand how important love is. They are so busy that they forget to take care of their nearest people. I can’t stand burning”. After these words, it’s frame softly blew out.
Then a voice was heard in the darkness.”Why aren’t you burning? you are supposed to stay till the end” it was the fourth candle speaking. “I am hope. While I am burning, I can light all the other candles”. So peace, faith and love started to lit again.
The flame of Hope should never go out of our heart. Only with hope we can live in peace, with faith and love.

The little Prince
The little prince is a novel written by the French author Antoin de Saint-Exupery in 1943. It’s about a boy called Little prince who lives on a asteroid known as “B612”,where there are three volcanoes and a rose. He spends his days cleaning the volcanoes and weeding all the unwanted seeds and plants, which could hurt his rose. He loves his rose and he works very hard to keep it safe.
The story follows the young prince, who visits other planets and meets different people, including earth. Earth is the last station of his trip, where he meets the narrator, who is a pilot and his aircraft had been crashed in the desert. They become friends and the young prince tells him everything about his home and all the people he had met. Every single character could teach the reader something.
Other characters of the novel are a fox an a snake. The fox believes in Friendship and tells the prince that his rose is special and unique because he loves it. The snake tells the prince that his body is too heavy to take him to his planet. When the prince feels homesick allows the snake to bite him. So his soul could return to the stars.
This book seems to be a children’s book,but actually it talks to everyone’s heart. It’s a book about loneliness, friendship, love, faith and loss.
The moral of the story is that we see clearly only with the heart.

Hectic pace of modern life
In present times, people are more likely to feel pressure and anxiety. It all starts when you don’t find time for yourself and you start to force yourself into a routine so you can cope with the everyday tensity. But that it isn’t a solution and you have sooner or later to deal with reality.
At first, you have to identify the cause that makes you feel stressed and put a stop to it. It is wise to take a break from your daily routine and enforce yourself in aim to change the way you live your life. It is possible to avert stress by embrace a different kind of lifestyle, for example, if you exercise daily you take out all the bad energy and tension you have. Not only that, but a healthy routine acquires a healthy diet and sleep program. All the efforts you will put on it, it is going to grand you a healthy inner self.
The pressure we feel is still going to increase if we don’t change the way we think. If you are searching a way to cope with the daily pressure, you have probably to defy your identity, by that I mean to ask yourself who are you and who you want to be? If the pressure comes from your work or your daily routine, you will have to change not only your habits but your life. It seems to everyone quitting your present life is something difficult and not even a choice. But your inner peace is way more important than your fears.
Having consistency in your life is important for your mental and physical health. It is our choice what path we will follow and it is in our hands to break free if that needs to.
