I'm gonna be happy

One day a flower will open for me,
The way will always be open to me.
It's always a fun day
I will be happy, believe me.

Spring will surely come for me,
Trees bloom early in the morning.
You can also have lunch at a glance at the flowers
 I will be happy, believe me.

A rose will soon grow for me Honey is really the happiest Summer is a big work for me I will be happy, believe me.

Kindness begets kindness

Kindness is a quality that is often underestimated and undervalued in today’s fast-paced world. With the constant hustle and bustle, people tend to prioritize their own needs and interests, often leaving behind acts of kindness towards others. However, what we fail to realize is that kindness has a ripple effect – it begets kindness. In simpler terms, when one person is kind to another, it leads to a chain reaction, ultimately spreading kindness to those around them. This small act of kindness has the potential to make a significant impact and bring about positive change in our society.

First and foremost, kindness is contagious. When we witness someone being kind to us or others, it automatically puts us in a positive mood and encourages us to do the same for others. Research has shown that when individuals are exposed to kindness, they are more likely to exhibit kind behavior themselves. It’s like a domino effect, where one act of kindness leads to another, and the cycle continues. This is how kindness begets kindness.

Moreover, kindness has the power to alleviate negativity and promote a sense of unity and togetherness. In today’s world, where division and hatred are rampant, small acts of kindness can go a long way in bridging the gaps and bringing people together. Even the smallest acts of kindness, such as a smile, a helping hand, or a kind word, can make a significant impact on someone’s day. When we show kindness towards others, it fosters a sense of community and reminds us that we are all in this together.

Additionally, kindness is not just limited to actions but also words. The words we choose to use can either hurt or heal, and by choosing to be kind with our words, we can spread positivity and uplift those around us. A simple compliment or a few words of encouragement can do wonders for someone’s self-esteem and confidence. When we speak kindly, we create a safe and comfortable environment for others, making them more likely to pass on the same kindness to others.

Furthermore, kindness has a profound impact on our mental and emotional well-being. Numerous studies have shown that acts of kindness trigger the release of dopamine, a chemical in the brain that makes us feel good. It boosts our mood, increases our self-esteem, and reduces stress and anxiety. By being kind to others, we not only spread joy and positivity, but we also improve our own mental and emotional state, creating a positive cycle of well-being.

Lastly, kindness has the power to create a lasting impression on others. A small act of kindness can leave a long-lasting impact on someone’s life, and in turn, inspire them to spread kindness to others. It has the potential to create a positive ripple effect that can extend beyond our own communities and reach people we may never even meet.

In conclusion, kindness truly begets kindness. It has the power to create a positive cycle of compassion, empathy, and unity, ultimately making our world a better and happier place to live in. As individuals, we must strive to be kind to one another and make it a part of our daily lives. No act of kindness is too small, and it can make a significant difference. So, let us all be kind to each other, for kindness truly has the power to change the world.

Poetry from Makhzuna Habibova

My Love...

Your love is a pattern in my heart,
I found happiness in your presence.
"Love" - said my lady who put it to the tune,
Days without your words - that's enough!

I couldn't believe the separation
Your name is hidden in my sleepy thoughts.
From your heart - when it comes to my heart,
I couldn't find the courage to look.

Dear looks in this broken heart,
Sweet dreams are now a passion.
Without you, how hard it is to live!
The heart tells you, - nothing else!

THE PERSONALITY OF GAFUR GULAM IS AN INDELIBLE IMAGE OF UZBEK

3rd-grade student


Today, we are informed about the work and life of the national poet of Uzbekistan, a great representative of our literature, academician Gafur Ghulam through school textbooks, various books, or mass media. However, it will be useful if we briefly dwell on the work of this artist and learn the necessary conclusions from it.


People’s poet of the Republic of Uzbekistan Gafur Ghulam was born on May 10, 1309, in the Korgontegi neighborhood of Azim Tashkent in a family of hard workers. His father Ghulam Mirza Arif knew the Russian language, read poetry, and wrote poetry himself. Gafur Ghulam was nine years old and his father died when he was fifteen. In these periods of his youth, our writer studied first in the old school, and then in Russian-Tuzem schools. After completing teacher preparation courses, he teaches in schools. Gafur Ghulam even works as a teacher in an orphanage and for some time as a director of such schools. At that time, the writer established relations with the publishers of various newspapers. He works in the newspapers “Kambagal Dehgan”, “Kyzil Uzbekiston”, and “Sharq Haqikatii”. The first literary activity of the poet began in 1923. He expresses his life
in the poem “Felix’s Children” written this year. The poet’s first poetry collection was published in 1931 under the name “Dynamo”, and in 1932 the second collection was published under the name “Living Songs”.


As everyone knows, world and Uzbek literature has many great representatives of prose and poetry. That is, most creators have their creative achievements in the same direction of literature, and some creators feel free in poetry, and others in prose or drama, and enhance their creativity. When we hear the names of Abdulla Qahhor and Abdulla Qadiri, we think of masters of the epic (prose) genre, when we think of the names of Abdulla Oripov, Usman Nasir, Hamid Olimjon, Muhammad Yusuf, we think of artists who have come to the public’s attention with their poems. Because someone was an
unwitting fan of one of their works, and someone was a fan of their poems. However, if we dwell on the name of Gafur Ghulam, we can think that the ideas mentioned above are somewhat inconsistent with his works. Because the creator skillfully waved his pen in both prose and poetry genres and left great examples of creativity in both directions, and each of them is worthy of admiration. In particular, anyone who is interested in Gafur Ghulam’s work is familiar with the artist’s work “Shum Bola” or “You are not an Orphan”. The author’s short stories and stories “Netay”, “Yodgor”, “Resurrected Corpse”, and “Shum bola” written in the 30s of the 20th century made a great contribution to the development of our national literature.

In many works of Gafur Ghulom, the true heroism of the people, humanity, and Uzbek nationalism are shown. Gafur Ghulam dedicated many of his works to the personality of children. The work “Shum Bola” is one of the successful works of the writer. In the play, the hero talks about his tragic life. The boy ran away from his house to his aunt’s house because of his mother’s punishment while taking the products out of the house. However, the boy is not lucky here either: he accidentally kills his uncle’s quail and leaves this house. Thus, he begins to be darbadar and trouble. The writer focuses on describing the worries and inner experiences of this child. Depicting external events, things and everything surrounding the little hero in the play serves to express human feelings deeply.


The events and scenes of the Second World War left an indelible mark on Gafur Ghulam’s heart. If he went back to his childhood in the years of the First World War and could not fully feel all the horrors and complications of the war, the artist considered the new war and those who provoked it to be his personal, bitter enemy. In these years, the poet’s literal works such as “You are not an Orphan”, “Gold Medal”, “Observation”, “Time”, “Missing”, “There Will be a Holiday on our street”, “I am a Jew” classical poems were born. In many of the writer’s poems, there is the image of an oriental sage – a father:
“You are not an orphan” (1942), “Grief” (1942), “One is a student, one is a master” (1950), “You are young people” (1947), “Spring Songs” (1948) and others.


The poet received the State Prize in 1946 for the collection “I Come from the East”, a collection of poems written during the war years. Gafur Ghulam was awarded the title of academician together with his creative friend Oybek for his great contribution to the development of Uzbek science and culture (1943).


Gafur Ghulam also used his pen effectively in the years after the war and created high artistic works; published several excellent articles on journalism and literary studies. His work appeared as a unique chronicle of the people’s life in this period. If Gafur Ghulam rose to the level of a philosopher-poet with his poetic works during this period, he also showed that he was a skilled writer who knew the people’s life and spirit well with his stories such as “Shum Bola” and “My Thief Boy”. Gafur Ghulam’s selected works, collections, and works in ten volumes have been published several times. His articles written as a scholar of classic and modern literature, his journalistic speeches on various aspects of life, feuilletons, and funny stories are warmly welcomed by the people, the poet is highly praised everywhere. would be honored. Gafur Ghulam was awarded the title of “People’s Poet of Uzbekistan” in 1963.


At the end of our speech, we should quote a verse from the author’s pen: Be as hardworking as the world, sooner or later,


With this, the poet emphasizes that movement means aliveness, that both the universe and the earth are always in motion, and he encourages our fans to move and live. In conclusion, we can say that during his life, the writer left an indelible mark in history with his life, his will, and his legacy equal to gold. Today, finding such works, even writing them, is a difficult task.

He strove to be a worthy “rival” rather than a “slave,” as he said in the poem “Rebellion of Souls” by the national poet of Uzbekistan Erkin Vahidov, in Tashkent.

Translations of works of Uzbek poets named “Oqqushlar galasi “were published. The collection is the double peak of Feinberg’s translation activity.

THE VILLAGE WHERE I WAS BORN

I was born in the village of Sarapayon, Khanka District, Khorezm Region. They say that the name of the village where I was born is Sarapayon, which is a Persian-Turkish term consisting of "sar-ob-yon". The meaning is "sar" - head, "ob" - water, "yon" - space - the head side of water. Some scientists explain that this term consists of two compounds "sara" - "poyon" and the meaning is "sara" - good, "poyon" - border (territory). Also, in toponomic dictionaries, sahr (a) yi poyon - lower desert, a village built in the remote desert also comes in the meaning.

  All three of these indicate that the term is very old. Three canals actually flow through the village, which means the head of this water. These are Shavat, Kulobod, and Khanka canals. It is no exaggeration to say that they cross the middle of the village and are the blood vessels of Sarapoyon lands.

Today, the total land area of the village is 4269 sq.km. Its population is 21,070 people (2012 data). Representatives of different nationalities live harmoniously in Sarapoyon. There are 21,018 Uzbeks, 13 Karakalpaks, 1 Tatars and Ukrainians, and 1 Belarusian.
Sarapoyon consists of 4 neighborhoods: Istiklal, Pakhtagul, Gulistan, Karamozi.

4. There are 3 Yangyop, Intizom and Okyop communities in Karamozi neighborhood.

During the entire history of the village, it has been bringing up many proud and memorable people. During the Second World War, hundreds of brave soldiers of this village fought for their people and homeland. How many people died in the battle and are missing. Among these brave men, my grandfather's uncles from our family took part, and both Egamovs, who were only 19 years old, did not return from the war. Not only those who died in the war, but also the hardworking people of our village gave their all to the war, gave their labor, harvest, life...

I love my village, I wouldn't trade it anywhere.
