Are animals psychic?

THIS is regarding the Myths and mysteries section, “Are animals psychic?” by Fatima Sajid (YW, May 2, 2015). I love reading mystery articles as I always discover something new. This article was also very amazing because I didn’t pay much attention to animals before. But after reading this article, I am more inquisitive to read about the topic. I do agree with the writer that animals also have some extra senses and they sometimes feel what human beings can’t.

We are responsible

THIS is with reference to the story “We are responsible” by Saira Owais Adil (YW, May 2, 2015). The story was interesting and had a great moral which opened my eyes that we must not consider those who work at our home as people inferior to us. Instead we should give our love and respect to them.

Accidental discoveries

THIS is regarding the cover story “Accidental discoveries” compiled by Benazir Raz (YW, May 16, 2015). It was a marvellous piece of information. I really liked reading it as it was very amazing.

I didn’t know that my favourite snacks like potato chips, chocolate chip cookies and ice-cream cones were discovered accidentally! Wow, so interesting read!
