People Grow Old, Birth-days Remain Same

Image
‘' No one knows when old age begins ’’ the quote I read somewhere while preparing for my undergraduate exams to become a doctor. Now years have passed, I have grown old and I still remember this line in my head. 'If we take a moment and observe other species like monkeys, birds, cows, etc. then you will see their younger generation is quite playful and curious and as they get older they learned to protect themselves, feed and explore but with some caution and then die due to old age. There is not much of a difference between one old lion from second old lion in terms of experience and age. To be honest all animals except humans (here I am not considering our ancestors like the chimpanzee, etc. because that will be totally out of context.) grow old in same way as their fellow animals. It is not like we can say that one lion was cool as he did something unusual in terms of experience which his fellow lion could not do before he died (unless kep...

TIME is Name of My God

  I get most of my ideas while I am jogging or sipping an evening tea or reading my favorite book. Those ideas seem worthy enough to solve most of the problems in the universe, but they seem like hanging from a fine thread of hope after endorphins wear off. Which made me believe that all our world problems could be solved if, everyone was a jogger or a reader. This won’t be another post which will describe how we can do unsurmountable things in life or how you can be a millionaire in short span of time rather it is about something which we all experience but choose to ignore like our brain ignores our nose all the time. This entity is not a living entity still I consider it as the most powerful one. Some physicist says, in space it does not exist, it is merely an observation. But still, most of our lives revolves around it and you will be surprised to know that most people die because they feel they cannot control it. In my opinion, after reading this post, you will agree with me o...

ART OF CREATIVE DISOBEDIENCE

Image
  Over the past few decades, the internet has taken over everything you can imagine! I mean, in the early nineteenth or twentieth centuries, only a small number of people who were so called experts in their field were supposed to be creative, the rest were simply expected to do as they were told to. However, the internet has changed things so much that its effects can be seen even at an individual level recently, in India, the internet data pack is available at such low cost that even a daily wager has a smart phone and data pack in it. It is like a revolution especially, for those who as per the society were not so experts but due to availability of internet, you tube, etc. everything is now accessible just at the click of a finger. To understand how laser printing works, going to printing shop or experts is not the only option, while sitting at home, having a cuppa of coffee in your hand and a video on you tube can easily explain you how printing works, rather it will also give ...

Working Mothers: A Perspective

Image
  ‘I am so happy to see my work place all cleaned up, that fresh air, where all the people are actually involved in their own work and place where I am fully responsible for my work, mind it ‘not other’s work’. Here, I am nicely dressed up, hair tied and a cup of coffee in my hand, most importantly I am a responsible adult’. Ah! I love my workplace. Those were my feelings when I joined my job after 6 months of maternity leave. Full of Hopes and doubts, leaving my infant at home for the first time. I had all those jitters which a responsible body part feels while separating from other body part. Still, I was able to bring smile on my face as I don’t want to regret not doing something which I love. I had no long-term plans, but I had a clear mindset of what I wanted and what I didn’t want. I guess, second part ‘what I didn’t want’ is more important. Being a millennial working woman, constant challenges are being thrown at you. Which I consider is vital as it helps in balancing out ...
