How much do you think you should expect from your spouse’s on your birth-date or may be any other special date!

“And finally after all the long rituals and other formalities you two are pronounced as husband and wife!” and of course this declaration is made for a “Happily forever” I mean of course technically it is supposed to be a happily forever!
Irrespective of whether it’s a love marriage or an arranged wedding the two of you have to know each other in the depths of an everyday routine! You eat and drink together, you laugh and fight together, so much so that there are no secrets kept and of course all facts are known. With the amount of time that a married couple stays together the two try to make things special for the other person on an everyday basis; for instance your wife may cook a special meal wholeheartedly for you on a random day, or your husband may randomly take you out for a late night drive just to spend some quiet time with you.
Despite the every day that the two spend with each other the expectations and the hope from either are raised by multiple folds as soon as a special date arrives! With all the love that they show you every day and all the special things that they anyways do for you, have you ever thought how difficult it is for them to add more flavor on top of it? And speaking by human psychology the things they may try to do for you may appear lesser catchy that a gesture by someone else because you see them and be with them every day! The extra special efforts may still be made, with extra-glitter and extra-gestures on your first birthday together; a surprise party may be organized or a nice trip may be planned etc; but of course the same things won’t be the same surprising with passing years and it may actually challenge your spouse to continuously think of a better way to make you feel special. Thus I feel that the expectations should gear down with at least the nexts! There are many other ways to make a special day special than expecting your spouse’s to do it for you, who anyway will do whatever they can!

It’s rather good to acknowledge each other on a daily basis for the smallest of things, and the slightest of gestures than burdening them and expecting from them on the so-called special dates! Forever is a long time, but we don’t actually know how long it is, so let’s cherish the smaller moments to our best rather than waiting for the yearly dates!

Ranveer Allahbadia is just the tip of the iceberg! #digitalworld

  In a recent incident, popular podcaster and YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia faced widespread criticism for making an inappropriate remark that was deemed unacceptable by many. Thank God for that, or else we are now a society where everything under the sun is rather normalised. I wouldn’t repeat the remark here, I can’t, it's out of my scope to write anything like that. Anyway, after that so-called remark on a show run by a popular comedian, Samay Raina was aired and shared, the internet was set on fire. I casually opened my Twitter on Sunday and was taken aback by the clip which was being circulated. It looked something like this: Some people, popular in the world of the internet sitting on a panel and roasting a contestant that stood in front of them. A highly vulgar remark was made by Ranveer, and the rest of the panel members along with the audience joined in laughter and applause. ‘Ah! Isn’t all this becoming rather common nowadays!’ was my first reaction, following which ...

A drive into the Himalayas

Well, the last week of December is as festive as it can get for anybody and everybody. It’s a week that calls for some year-end celebrations, get together’s and travel. I wanted to plan something for that week since eternity but my usual attitude to push every work till the last moment, made me plan absolutely nothing till almost the 20 th of December! It was on the 20 th that it struck me that we needed to book tickets to travel, and of course, we needed to book a hotel to stay. Various places within the country, including popular destinations like Goa, were packed and out of budget for us. There were two options that we were left with; 1) stay back home and crib 2) explore something that we never explored before. After a series of discussions, we came to a common conclusion to travel to Pokhara city in Nepal. I tried searching a lot to get some details about the roads, the recommended route etc but couldn’t get any detailed post and thus I was certain to post a blog on it. ...

Can we expect Real Growth, from Intelligence that’s Artificial?

Technology has changed so much around us in the past few years, isn’t it? From getting miraculously connected to each other through phones, we have grown multifold since the time mobiles were first introduced. Internet, international connectivity, google search, and social media, we seem to have travelled ahead at the speed of light. While many of us were still adapting to all of this, a big word- artificial intelligence started circulating. Intelligence and artificial, look like two opposite words that have been joined together , is what came to my mind when I first heard about it. Before I could know, this technology, now popular as AI had already infiltrated many apps and websites. Someone asked me if I use ChatGPT, and I got partially shocked to discover what it was. In between all this lately, there was another popular news that mentioned how an MIT graduate had invented a device that could read your mind. He mentioned how it could google questions within your mind and order a p...
