Every second post on the social media is going Political and I wonder why?

Well so today my bad health has kept me at home and I have been browsing my social networking sites more than usual, which unfortunately is making me sicker! Why? Because most of the posts by most of the people are a mere tug of war posts about different political parties. Have you also felt the same anytime? From lame jokes about different leaders and political parties to heated arguments leading nowhere the sites are full of posts which are nothing more than a mere verbal war. One statement by some leader and the internet gets filled with n number of jokes about it, one step taken by another and the internet again gets filled with the pros, cons, and discussions which of course are based on half-information many times. It’s always good to know the prevailing politics in the country, it’s good to know what is been done, the steps that are taken and so on and so forth but the only thing that should be done is, knowing it, doing your job right and of course voting for the candidate you like and that’s it.

Such posts and arguments do not influence anyone on their decision, on the contrary, gets you waste the most crucial things, which are your time and your energy. If you know your facts and figures right and if you know who to support then it’s great and you should get back to doing your job, in your premises right. If you argue saying, of course I do my job and these posts are just in the time in between my work, then my dear friend the amount of energy that these two minutes consume is way too much is one thing, and the ripples that it creates of a bad wave, vibe, and aura amongst others may be way too many. If you truly love your country then fighting over politics and creating such ripples is the last thing that you should do. If someone who is reading this is active in politics on the internet and restrains from posting even one such argumentative post then I will consider my job done by saving at least some bad ripples. Save your energy, talk positive and happy things, know what you are doing, and do your job right that’s the maximum that you can do my friend to change the negative aura in which we are living today.

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...

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 ...

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...
