Life is all about the bonds we form with others. Our relationships give our lives meaning and purpose.
From the day we are born, we need other people. Family, friends, and even strangers shape who we become. They support us, comfort us, and bring us joy.
We learn and grow through our connections with others. Each relationship teaches us something new. When we open up to people, we build trust and understanding.
It's important to make time for the people we care about. Simple things like a phone call or a meal together make a difference. Really listening when others talk shows we value them.
Saying "thank you" is a powerful way to show appreciation. Kind words and actions can change someone's whole day.

Deaths from January Disease in cattle have plummeted in Zimbabwe. In 2017, the illness killed about 500,000 cows. This year, almost no cows died from it.
The government took steps to control the disease. It used dipping and vaccines. Farmers dip their cows every week to prevent ticks. Ticks spread the disease.

The last big outbreak was in Bikita district. But workers stopped it from spreading. Cases are now very rare.
The government tracks other diseases, too. It watches for things like anthrax and...
