The government and individuals are spending too much money on national celebrations like New Year or festivals. Do you agree or disagree?
We are dependent on social heritage, which is a mixture of customs, traditions, moral values, attitudes, festivals, folklore, beliefs and ideas not only makes us who we are but binds us to pass it on from one generation to another. Festivals act like stress relievers and help us balance our emotions. More positivity naturally lowers negativity. It also provides an opportunity to reduce friction and brings estranged friends and relatives together in a bond of love. Moreover, nothing brings people together as festivals do. They play a pivotal role in nation-building; bringing people from every religious, economic and social background together.

It is said that since electronic devices have the function to interpret in a fast and precise way, it is not necessary for us to learn new languages anymore. This essay totally disagrees with the statement and believes that the more languages we know, the better our lives become because we can not use translation tools in real-life conversations, and being able to speak different languages offers many learning and working opportunities.
