The collapsed glacier

 The collapsed glacier

Rescuers were working to free around 35 Indian workers trapped in a tunnel two days after the dam they were helping to build was swept away by a wall of water from a collapsed glacier that barrelled down a Himalayan river.

The workers were among 197 people who officials said were still unaccounted for as the death toll from the disaster - which also broke apart bridges, cut off villages and scarred tracts of mountain landscape - rose to 28. So we all pray that the missing people will be found.

My journal task

 This week we have started our sunken forest journal  This was our task for this week we had to answer the questions and write a full paragraph using the paragraph structure we were given. This is mine:

Journal Task 1: Kindness

 “The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention.”

What do you think this means?  Describe a time where a small act of kindness has made a big difference for you.

I think it means that sometimes the smallest thing can actually help somebody even if you don’t realise and good intentions can not always work out and sometimes just a little smile or wave or saying hello to someone can actually make their day. They say when you smile someone that person will be made happy and then they will smile at someone else and this goes on and on and a smile costs nothing but is the greatest gift. I remember when I was younger and I was doing a dance show and I was already too then I started crying for some reason and my make-up smudged. Mum did her best to fix it and when I got there one of the other mums lent us some special make up and helped me look better again. When I went on that stage I looked and felt better because of that small act of kindness.
