Literature Is Writing In Prose Or Verse
Literature is writing in prose or verse which has excellence of form or expression. Usually literature presents ideas of permanent or universal interest.
The word ‘literature’ is often used to describe groups of writings such as children’s literature, medical literature. Russia literature, Indian writing in English, English literature etc.
Literature can be found in many forms. We can, for instance, divide it into fiction and non-fiction.
Fiction is any writing that is imaginary. It contains invented character, places and events. There may be real basis in past or present, but fiction is usually largely made up by the author.
Novel is one of the forms of fiction. It is a long work which often tells a story. While creating it the author may create many exciting settings, elaborate situations. It may extend into many chapters. Short story is much less complicated . Its characters are fewer, and not as completely developed and their actions are less wide-ranging.
Drama is another major form of fiction. It tells its story in speech and action. Depending on the skill of the dramatist, and the performers, a drama can be enjoyed by more people at a time.
Poetry is an important branch of literature. It can tell a story, as in the ballad or epic poems or it can create moods, and reveal feelings. In some instances poetic forms are applied to other areas. For example many plays of William Shakespeare are written in poetic form.
The second major division of literature is Non-fiction. It tells about real people, places, events , or ideas. This is an extremely board classification. Non-fiction includes histories, essays, which are often personal statements or arguments on particular subjects.
A non-fiction writer sometimes shades off toward fiction in the biography, a story of somebody’s life. Some biographers tend to be more imaginative than in other writing. News papers and periodicals also form part of non-fiction.
The sight of a drunkard is a better sermon against that vice than the best was ever preached on the subject.

Vision
Thine eyes stretched beyond the pale light of mortal world,
For what vision art thou lost in thought?
On what aim art thou fixed?
Thy motionless gaze,
Thy fervent ecstasy,
Thy illuminated face,
All these unearthly marks
And more that my mind is powerless to grasp
Have given me sight for seeking the unseen.
There is no such thing as a ‘self-made’ person. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success.
Don’t shut love out of your lfie by saying it’s impossible to find. The quickest, way to receive love is to give; the fasterst way to lose love is to hold it too tightly;
And the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Live without pretending;
Love without depending;
Listen without defending;
Speak without offending
Give without ending.



I drive joy

There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 5 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive from? I am not robbing you of your joy; why should you rob me of mine. He asked. The critics were silenced. –Baba- Chinna Katha
