You are not Alone

During this PAUSE period, we are practising social distancing. But distancing is not actually happening here. Yes, you heard me right !!. We are becoming more Social by maintaining distance because of these strong bridges - Insta, WhatsApp and Facebook. We are indulging ourselves more into these and creating virtual meeting spots on these bridges. But honestly, its really nice to stay connected with our beloved ones in this tough situation. Suddenly we started remembering our childhood friends. We are tagging people in different dares. And we are in a society where doing our household works is treated as a new challenge and started posting them on media. I feel that it is easy to break the CORONA chain than breaking this  #BINGO chain. You can relate all these if you are the one who frequently scrolls down the Insta page like I do. In our 'X busy' schedule, TIME is the one thing which is always 'Out of Stock'. And we always blame TIME for not completing our basi...

We are experiencing a whole new world altogether. I cannot say new, because this is where we actually belong to. I can see you nodding your head in agreement. yes, I always dreamt of this situation, where we can stop for a while and slow down the pace of our busy lives. And I was pretty sure that it will never happen as we are so scared of missing that fast-moving FUTURE bus.    I have seen parents pressurizing their children for staying at home ( whatever the reason may be - taking a break from hustle and bustle life, looking for better opportunities or exploring ways to create a new path). But, those invisible 'four people' around our parents will be standing in a queue to criticize that they are wasting time and not having any growth in so-called CAREER which is defined and followed by most of the people.  But I always wonder what career will we lose by doing nothing or doing something we like which does not add up to our growth??? Are we gonna ...

'CLASS dismiss' - This reminds me of my school days prayer meetings. And if you were a school leader, you know it better. Now, I want to be that leader, standing in front of this whole society and command - "CASTE dismiss". I guess many of us want to do the same. Yeah, I know because we are 90's kids and we are the top victims of this disease.   Saying that I am not against this so-called CASTE. But, what is more, bothering me is the way the CASTE is perceived. Actually, it lost the purpose of its origin.   CASTE came into the picture to reflect your JOB / Work. It defines your way of living. It displays one's dignity of labour. All jobs are equally important, so do the CASTE.    But, as generations passed, I really don't understand how this CASTE has entered into our blood and DNA. Seriously, HOW?    CASTE is an heirloom passed down to next generations in the form of work. It doesn't have anything to do with blood and DNA. Al...

                                       I have been spending a lot of time in sharing my thoughts with my friends, colleagues, family members and everyone who crosses my path. During these conversations, some will agree with you, some disagree with your thoughts, some will get into argument with you and many others will criticize and even some may laugh at your thinking process.  These all are inevitable when you speak your mind. But one thing that I have constantly observed at the end of each conversation is 'Learning'. I always want to express my thoughts and feeling in writing. But somewhere deep in my heart, I feel that I am not good at it and have never gone for it. Being said that, it has to start somewhere right!!. ' If not today, then never.'   Now this CORONA Quarantine has given me a chance for me to kick-start this deep-rooted wish of wr...
