 Sometimes, when the world falls silent, I sit with my thoughts—reflecting on the loves I never shared, the apologies I never gave, and the pain I never voiced. In the quiet, I revisit moments where fear silenced me, where pride held me back, and where time passed before I found the courage to act. This loneliness shaped me into who I am today. It taught me the language of loss, etched by the loves I couldn’t hold on to and the relationships that soured despite my yearning to mend them. It turned me inward, transforming heartache into words, and isolation into verses that bleed with unspoken truths. The bitterness of what was lost and the emptiness it left behind became the soil where my voice grew—a poet born from solitude, with lines woven from the threads of love, regret, and resilience.

  How Different Perspectives Shape the End of a Story Life is filled with stories, but the way they end isn’t universal. Every story ends, but its meaning and impact depend entirely on who’s telling it.

Let’s explore this idea through relatable real-life examples, revealing how perspectives shape the "endings" of our shared stories. The Failing Student:   Imagine walking into your home with a failed report card in your hands. Your heart races, your palms sweat, and all you can think about is: How will they react?

Yet, deep down, they cling to hope: Maybe I can still fix this. The Parent’s View: Anger, frustration, and worry swirl together. They wonder, Did I push too hard? Not hard eno...

  The Power of Thoughts: From a Word to a World It begins with a single word—unassuming, floating in the quiet space of our mind. That word, a spark, ignites a chain reaction, setting the stage for something extraordinary: the birth of a thought. Like a pebble dropped in still water, a single word ripples through our consciousness, expanding, evolving, and connecting seemingly unrelated fragments of ideas. Before long, that thought transforms into a sentence, a cohesive thread in the tapestry of our inner world, from there, it builds entire realms of imagination, stirring emotions like joy, anxiety, sadness, or rage. Sometimes, it remains a fleeting thought, seemingly untethered to anything at all. The Seed of Imagination Every grand idea, every imaginative leap, starts as something small. Perhaps the word is "freedom", "hope" "love" or "work".  On its own, it carries weight, but when embraced by the mind, it becomes a foundation. The word begins...

The Magic of Growing Up in India During the 80s There’s something about the 80s that makes every Indian who lived through it smile. It was a time untouched by the frenzy of technology, a slower pace of life where joy wasn’t found in things, but in moments. The childhood of an 80s kid was beautifully simple, full of laughter, mischief, and connections that felt as deep as they were real. Let’s take a heartfelt walk down memory lane to a world where life was lived, not scrolled.   Mornings Filled with Warmth Do you remember waking up to the gentle clatter of utensils in the kitchen, the aroma of steaming chai wafting through the air, and the soft, comforting hum of Vividh Bharati playing in the background? Breakfast was simple yet hearty—fluffy hot parathas or buttered bread, often accompanied by a side of mom’s loving scoldings for taking too long to get ready for school. The day truly began with the long bus ride to school—a journey that was never boring. It was filled with laught...

Books have a kind of magic to them. They sit patiently on shelves or screens, waiting for us to dive into their worlds. And once we do, they have this uncanny way of changing us—our thoughts, our views, sometimes even the course of our lives. They might look like simple collections of pages and words, but the right book, at the right time, can be a life-altering experience. Let’s explore what makes books so captivating and how they can shape who we are. The Unique Charisma of Books Unlike a movie or a podcast, books are immersive in a different way. They don’t just feed you the story; they ask you to take part in it. As you read, you build images of characters, places, and emotions, filling in details from your own life and imagination. This active engagement gives books a powerful edge—they’re not just stories; they become experiences. A book’s journey often begins with a single line or an intriguing cover, and suddenly, you’re hooked, transported to a new world,each book connects wit...
