Mohandaskaramchand Gandhi
Porbandar is an old seaport on the coast of Kathiawar western India. It was here that a greet saint was born on 2 October 1869. The name of this saint was Mohandas Gandhi whom we now call Mahatma Gandhi. His parents were Karamchand Gandhi and Putlibai. He was small and dark, and looked no different from the other children of his age. Yet this was no ordinary child. He became the first warrior in his history that fought without arms. He won his battle against the British and freed his country.
Mohandas was the youngest of the six children of karamchand Gandhi. He was the favorite child of the family. He was called Moniya by his parents and others in the family.
Moniya adored his mother who was a deeply religious lady. He loved his father also, but he was a little afraid of him.
A child Moniya was very fond of playing. He seldom liked to stay at home. He would come home for meals, and then run away again to play outside. Sometimes one of his elder brothers would tease him playfully. Moniya would run home and complain to his mother.
`` Why don’t you hit back if anyone teases you?’’ the mother would say, laughing.
``Mother!’’ Moniya would say. ``how can I hit my brother? It is bad to hit anyone, isn’t it?’’
The mother would then take Moniya in her arms, and kiss him. She wondered how her little son got such ideas.
Moniya was sent to a primary school. He was very shy. He did not mix easily with the other children. Every morning he went to school in time. He would run back home as soon as the school was over. His books were his only companions. He spent almost all his time in reading books.
Moniya had a friend named Uka. He was a sweeper-boy.
One day the mother gave Moniya some sweets. He at once ran out and shared them with his friends. The mother saw all this. She was very angry. She at once called Moniya back into the house and said angrily: ``don’t you know Uka is an untouchable.
``Mother,’’ said Moniya respectfully, ``I don’t think Uka or anybody is untouchable. Is Uka in any way different from me?
The mother had no answer to give.
The story of Shravan was once read by Moniya. He was a very obedient and devoted son. His parents were old and blind. Shravan carried them from one place to the other. Moniya was deeply touched by Shravana’s devotion to his old parents. ``I must be like Shravan,’’ he said to himself.
About the same time he saw a play about Harichandra who was a king, and was famous for his love of truth.
``All men should be truthful Harichandra,’’ Moniya would often say.
Moniya was only thirteen when his parents chose a bride for him. Her name was Kasturiba. She was a pretty girl Moniya now began to be called Mohandas.
Mohandas and his wife often played to gather. Sometimes Mohandas tried to teach his young wife. But she was, more interested in household work than in reading books.

Home is also a school
A house family-
Man is a social animal. He finds it hard to live alone.
A home is a place where a man lives with wife, parents and children. Getting tried after a day’s work, a man finds peace and happiness at home.
A happy home is like heaven while an unhappy home is like hell. A home is a happy one where youngsters respect their elders and elders are affectionate to youngsters.
if a person is not eager to go home after a day’s labor, if he thinks he will not get peace there, his children will not respect him, his wife will nag him, then such a house presents the picture of hell and needs to be changed drastically.
Brick- walls do not make a house. It is love and affection which makes it. It is tolerance and sacrifice which makes it. It is mutual faith and trust which makes it. It is the common joys and sorrows which make it. If these things are absent, then it is merely a hotel and not a home.
A home is a place where a child learns to speak. He learns to express his thoughts feely. He also learns the limits of his expression. He learns self control. A happy home is one where every member has self- control. Often the difference of opinion is on trifles. It is the uncontrolled expression that aggravates it. Therefore, silence is golden at times.
A home should be an abode of peace. Peace resides where there is love and sacrifice. Small courtesies in the home make a big difference. There are certain simple rules, the observance of which makes a happy home.
Every member in a home should help others and cooperative with them. It is unfair to burden one member with overwork. Often the lady of the house is overburdened. She should be given a helping hand by all the other members. It is the duty of every member to keep the house clean and tidy. A student should particularly learn to help him and also others wherever possible.
Sometimes we have different opinions on a given issue. Sometime our physical needs are different as in young age and old age. Our tastes are different. One may be passing an examination while another might have finished his examination. The former wants silence, the latter may want to enjoy music. It is here that cooperation and understanding are needed.
So, home means respecting others. It is cooperating with others, caring for others, sacrificing for others and having self- control.
