Do you realize what you have or should I take it away from you first !!

After a long tug of war that was going on in my head for I guess months together, I finally submitted my resignation from my current organization. And to my surprise the moment I received a date for my relieving everything around me somewhat changed. The entire experience of my moving to a strange city all by myself, and exploring things people and possibilities hovered over me. All my experiences, happy moments and good gestures by people I met on the way made me a little emotional every day. And at my workplace as well, everyone was much more expressive, and admiring for both my work and my attitude, in short, people became a little more expressive and I became a little more receptive. If both I and my colleagues would have been the same ways while I was regular wouldn’t we have made it much more memorable!

I think for some reason we all are a little hesitant to look at the good side of anything, until of course we know we wont have it anymore. Or in other words it wouldn’t be wrong if I say we don’t appreciate what we have and perhaps always look at the other side of the picture and want what we don’t have. Though we have one single life, I feel we have it comprised of many many days, and by natures grace we have an opportunity to begin each day fresh and new. If we end each day as if we have to begin a new life tomorrow, and live each day as a new being then I guess we’ll have so many lives and so many opportunities, and we can infact appreciate all little good gestures, and everything we have for that single day so much more. Express more frequently and more freely, be thankful for what you have, appreciate and enjoy small moments that make you smile everyday, there is nothing bigger that you need to be happy and be satisfied atleast. After all if being deprived of is something that makes us realise its worth then I guess it will be too late if we realise the worth of life itself when we will be deprived of it. Don’t live the same day for 75 years and call it a life! Make it memorable until its too late!

Annoyed by children on board? This read is for you

A recent Instagram post by a well-known celebrity writer read “They should give away free birth control pills on all airlines as a public service.” I juggled for a long time to understand what it meant, but couldn’t until I saw the only hashtag the writer had used as a caption beneath, #annoyingchildrenonboard. This post came after almost a week of relaxing and luxurious holiday that he had in Thailand. As most of the posts by this writer are relatable, at times funny and witty, it took me a while to comprehend what he had written. How could he post such a thing ? I thought, and scrolled through the comments section. In the comments I saw outpouring negativity for little children and their parents inside airplanes. “It’s so irritating!” one comment read, “I wanted to sleep peacefully on my three-hour flight, but the child behind just couldn’t shut up. Why do people produce when they can’t teach their children basic etiquette!!!” “So relatable,” read another, “an annoying baby was cryin...

Health beyond COVID-19!

None of us had imagined that we would ever see a crisis in health as huge as the one that we are witnessing currently.   One disease and the entire world has come to a standstill. But then, what is life if we can predict it? Coronavirus, which has shaken everyone with its massive spread, has slowly moved towards community spread in India. Reasons for its relatively slower rise in numbers here can be various. The timely and stringent actions taken by the government, our immunity to survive it due to poor overall hygiene of the country; or the relatively larger number of infections that we already face. However, fear of rising numbers remains, because we are a densely populated land. The losses that COVID has caused are many and grave but then, there is one good thing that it has brought to us as a country. It is our efforts to improve our existing healthcare system. It will be premature to say if these efforts are temporary or permanent but it’s very positive to see how w...

The “Padmavat” controversy!

Right since the inception of the much talked about Bollywood movie “Padmavat” it has been blanketed and submerged in controversies! While some continued to believe that it is nothing but publicity, the others stood strongly against it. Unfortunately, the strongly against wasn’t limited to the vocal cords but it did hit and affect, and is continuing to affect the masses much beyond it! It did catch my attention when I read about some unusual things where the director’s head and the actresses nose was demanded, and I have been following and reading about the drama since then. Trust me the more I read it the more I got confused about the human race. In fact, after a recent appalling incidence, I was certain that there is a blend of the human heart with the devil's mind in some people which is resulting in activities as surprising as attacking the school kids. Here is what I tweeted on the day following that incidence. I am very certain that I will lose an argument if I sta...
