Solution

My favourite source of light is the sun.

Autobiography of the Sun

Hi, I Do you know who I am? I am the mighty, all-powerful sun. I call myself mighty and all-powerful because, without me, there would be no life on earth. Without me, you human beings would not exist. You may think I am boasting when I say all this, but it is the truth. Though I am so very, very far away from you, I still give you heat, light, and energy. Plants too need me to prepare their food. All the planets in the solar system revolve around me

I am actually a big ball of fire. I am made up only of gases. If you were very close to me, you would burn. If you were very far from me, you would freeze. People know my value. That is why many people pray to me every day. I appear to rise and set every day, but I am always present as the king of the solar system.

According to some experts, a staggering 93 percent of our daily communication is non-verbal. Facial expressions are easy to decipher. One can readily detect happiness, sadness, anger. Physicians can tell a patient is doing well (or not) by looking at his/her face.

Eye contact is another type of non-verbal communication, which can tell a lot about the other person. The eyes convey a range of emotions-happiness, sadness, boredom, surprise, confidence ..... even emotional interest. Staring at someone's forehead may intimidate the recipient, staring at the mouth is sometimes interpretated as a sign of emotional interest. In fact staring into someone's eyes is a sign of lying, and so is looking away. In certain cultures, lack of eye contact is taken as a sign of respect.

If body language is to be defined, it is a combination of facial expression, gestures, eye contact, body movements and posture and voice.

Frequent blinking is a sign of the person feeling distressed or uncomfortable. If the pupils are dilated, it often indicates interest, even emotional interest.

Slightly turned-up lips indicate happiness and slightly turned-down lips indicate sadness.
