Young people want persuade others about their true and that is why sometimes they don't know what is right or wrong. Every person considers for right something else. Usually people behave in accordance with example from their parents. And they are those, who criticize them.

Today we hardly find some gentleman with everything what he must have. Maybe you find a man who open a door for you or hol

Human Relations

Relationship is the way that people behave towards each other, feel about each other, etc. While we can have a good or close relationship with some people, we try to be on good terms with the others, which means that we have a polite and friendly relationship with especially those we do not know socially, e.g. someone we have to deal with in a business context.

Living

There are many ways how and where to live, everybody can choose the best for him, that what he likes, needs or can afford. I live in small town of Snina.

Culture and art

Cultural life in our town is not so rich as in large cities. In spite of that, there are some ways of spending leisure time. We can go to the cinema, to the theatrical performance, dancing, or we can stay at home and listen to the radio, watch television and read books.

People need culture. They need to go to the cinema, theatre or an exhibition. Culture is something that forms human character, and it is necessary for children to know it. But they do not have time. And that is the biggest problem ever.

There are some people who eat just once a day - they have one continuous meal - others are figure-conscious and try to fast (ukonči»), or at least (obmedzi») cut down on sugar and fat intake.
