speech on Whoever said money can’t buy happiness didn’t know where to shop. so igotta write a speech for a contest just need ideas for how to start a introduction for the topic

Answer and Explanation:

There is a very good strategy to start a speech and get your audience interested, especially when the topic is controversial such as this one: ask the audience a question. As a matter of fact, it can even be multiple questions. The purpose here is to get them to think about the topic and to anticipate what you are going to say about it. Examples would be:

- Would you like to be rich?

- Would you be happier if you were rich?

- How much money would make you happy? Ten thousand dollars? A million?

- What would you do if you had billions and billions of dollars? Take a moment to imagine it. Would those things make you happier than you are now?

Of course, there is no need for them to answer them out loud, nor to raise their hands or anything. But they will surely answer the questions in their minds, and that will get the ball rolling for you.

Then, you can move on to explain your point of view. Money does bring happiness because... and so on.

Hey guys looking for feedback and any mistakes on a small writing prompt that someone wrote for me. August 1st, 1876. One century after the United States signed the Declaration of Independence, Colorado was admitted into Union as the 38th state. What many people didn’t realize until many years later, was the beauty of this magnificent state. It is filled with mountains, rivers, lakes, and so much more. The days began with a beautiful sunrise and ended with an equally beautiful sunset. The winters were full of snow and the summers full with life. This is why I chose to make this beautiful state my home, at the age of thirty three. My family and I moved to a small town called Aspen. For the first few years it was amazing. In the winter my family and I would go snowboarding, and in the summer we would take long walks in the beautiful mountains. But it wasn’t like this forever. In February of 1995, my wife was struck with cancer. The doctors said she was not going to make it and to prepare for her death. With great sorrow, I made preparations. Since I could no longer afford our house, I got ready to sell it. My wife got her will in order and she began to make peace with herself as she fought her inevitable fate. Family was always coming over to bring us food and comfort. My wife died in August of 1995. With heavy hearts, we sold the house and made way for Vail to start a new life. This town was similar to Aspen, but was filled with new people and new beginnings. I decided to write a book, wanting a new hobby to take my mind off my wife. I had always been a decent writer, but my wife dying brought new light to writing. I spent hours tucked in my office working on my book. In one of the rare moments that I was out, I met someone. We met at a coffee shop, when she came up to me and introduced herself. She said her name was Isabel and asked me about my life. We talked for hours that day about my life and hers. We soon began to meet every Saturday at this small coffee shop. She would listen to my life story and then I would listen to hers. Every weekday I would work on my book, excited to see her on Saturday. Soon we started dating. It was then that I truly started to heal. A year later we decided to get married. Our marriage was one of the happiest days of my life and at that moment I knew that my life was filled with many more pleasant days. I completed my book just months after. The book is called Passing of The Dead. In this book I talk of all the hardships in my life. I talk of the sorrow my dead wife brought me. Of the gaping hole she left in me with her death. But then I talk about healing. How Isabel showed me to make the hole smaller. How she showed me to fill the sorrowful hole of her death with the memories of our past. In the last chapter of the book I move on to one final, important lesson that I learned. This last chapter is all about finding optimism and being hopeful for a better future. I was lucky when I decided to move to Vail. I was lucky when Isabel came up to me that day. Because of my hope and optimism, I let Isabel in my life. And my life has once again returned into a state of happiness, a state that I thought I would never see again. So I come here today, asking all of you one favor. Next time you feel that you are in pain, do not dwell in your sorrows. Do not only think of the painand dwell in it. Instead, think of all the happy memories before the pain. Be hopeful and optimistic of a better future. Because one day, you will look back on your moments of sorrow and be thankful. Thankful that you experienced everything. Because those experiences are the hands that mold you. And if you dwell in the pain, it will mold you into a lesser person than if you had not done so and instead been optimistic and hopeful.

Secularism is the very soul of Indian society and the democracy. India has

a tradition of co-existence, tolerance, co-operation and mutual respect

between all its social and religious groups. Islam came to India with Muslim

conquerors. A large number of natives turned Muslims over the period and

presently they make the second largest community of our nation. The

contribution of Islam to Indian culture and civilization has been spectacular.

It added variety, colour and richness to native heritage. Islam enriched

India with architectural wonders, the most precious being ‘Tajmahal’, the

symbol of aesthetic India. Christianity had preceded Islam to India. St.

Thomas, the twelve disciples of Christ arrived in India to preach his

message when St. Peter was in Rome. Paris came to India in 8th century

to escape from religious persecution in Iran. They brought Zoroastrianism.

Jews sailed to India 2000 year ago to settle down in Mumbai, Pune, Kochi

and Delhi. Hinduism itself was a religious conglomeration of thousands of

sects having distinct beliefs, rituals, customs and practices. Three nearly

different religions branched out of it, namely, Buddhism, Jainism and

Sikhism having separate places of worship and holy books. In all, India

remained a shining example of unity in diversity, nowhere else found in the

world.

Honouring this eternal spirit of India, our constitution makers declared our

nation to be a secular state without any discrimination. Although the people

of our country are deeply religious yet they don’t harbour any ill will or

intolerance against other faiths. Even during the freedom struggle theleaders who led it made secularism a basic policy to rally all the people

against the British. The secular polity was fiercely strengthened by

Mahatma Gandhi. Himself a deeply religious Hindu, he had great respect

for all other religions and faiths.

To divide the Indians, the colonial rulers tried to destroy file spirit of

secularism by aiding and abetting communal forces. Some of our people

forgot that sacred tradition and played in the hands of British. Our country

paid a terrible price for that lapse. India got divided into two nations and we

lost father of, the nation, Mahatma Gandhi to the bullets of a degenerated

fanatic who had no use for our secular legacy. It should teach us a lesson

that only secular spirit will keep India going.

Read Shakespeare’s "Sonnet 130.”

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips' red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damasked, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant I never saw a goddess go;
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compare.
