Embracing the Extremes: Surviving Hell and Heaven on Earth
In our journey through life, each of us encounters our own versions of heaven and hell. These experiences are not otherworldly realms but manifestations of our actions and decisions here on Earth. Understanding and navigating these extremes can be a transformative process, teaching us resilience, strength, and the power of aspiration.
Perfection is a perception
In a world that often glorifies perfection, it's easy to fall into the trap of chasing an ideal that might not even exist. From flawless Instagram feeds to meticulously curated lifestyles, we are bombarded with images of what perfection should look like. But here’s the truth: perfection is subjective, and more importantly, it’s often an illusion.
You won't find the same person twice, not even in the same person.
At first glance, identity might seem like a stable construct, defined by our name, occupation, beliefs, and relationships. However, a deeper exploration reveals that these elements are in a state of constant flux. Each day, we are exposed to new information, challenges, and perspectives that subtly or dramatically alter our sense of self.

The Silent Stories in Suffixes
Language is more than just a tool for communication; it’s a reflection of our thoughts, emotions, and relationships. When we delve into the etymology and structure of words, we often uncover deeper meanings and symbolisms that resonate with our human experiences.
Dig the past, only if you are willing to plant a tree
“Dig the past, only if you are willing to plant a tree" is a reminder that exploring the past is only valuable if it leads to growth and change in the present. It's a call to action for individuals to learn from the past, but not be held captive by it. Instead, they should use their understanding of history to create a better future.
In conversation with Talking Dosa!
I am a Dosa lover like every other south Indian and one morning, my curious brain, raised this interesting question. What if a Dosa can talk? I indeed tried talking to one and here is the transcript of our conversation. This conversation opened up a different dimension of life to think and experience. Hope you all will experience it and enjoy the read.
Do we really mean it?
I have started my day with this curious question. Do we really mean it? when we say these things “Happy Birthday” “Happy Anniversary” and most importantly ‘RIP”. These are the most important occasions in any human’s life, which we celebrate in between our journey from “Baby to Body”. When we are born,
Happy Birthday
Just Imagine-If your wife reacts this way!!
Just imagine, on one fine day, you went out for a boy’s night or a party with your colleagues and as usual, you are constantly avoiding your wife’s calls for more than 3 to 4 hours. Finally, you reach home at 3 AM in the morning and your wife opens up the door with a bright smile on her face to welcome you. This can be a reality for sure and you will get to know by the end of this article.
Every couple tries to give their best or rather show their best side to each other in this phase of their relationship, which is either the courtship period or the first year of marriage and both of them try to put in their best efforts to impress each other. If everything goes well, these efforts will progress into marriage, which is technically shown as a happy ending in most of our Indian films. But logically this should be considered as a happy beginning to a new perspective of life.
What if a tree gets into mental health issues?
Trees offer us so much in terms of life-sustaining resources like oxygen, food, and shelter to name a few. Suffice to say, life on earth would be impossible without trees. But apart from these resources, trees can also offer us a wealth of knowledge. There is so much you can learn simply by looking at a tree and how it grows.Out of all the life lessons which a tree can teach us, this is my favorite one. Unlike a vegetable garden that will ripen and die in a matter of months, a fruit tree needs years to mature. It assumes and demands patience.
It invests a lot of time to strengthen itself prior to producing fruit.
This is something especially every kid should learn and adapt as a practice.
Importance of renewing love in your relationship
Have you ever observed, In our Indian movies, there are not many songs available to praise a wife when compared to those millions of songs available to praise a girlfriend? Well, I will leave this as a curious question for you to think about and introspect. On that note, today we are going to talk about the importance of renewing love in any relationship. We have to understand and accept this reality, we humans are blessed to experience the purest form of unconditional love only twice in our entire lifetime. Let’s talk about the first one. We get to experience this from our parents, from the time we are born on this planet and we get it without much of a struggle. I think this might be one of the reasons we always take this for granted until we ourselves experience the magic of giving a new life to our kids or reach a particular stage in life. This is the human emotion cycle, which
How Five Ws and One H can change your kid’s perspective towards learning ?
I became a student of life, when I realized that, I didn’t know the answers to the most fundamental aspects of life, which we have otherwise taken for granted or never bothered to apply these Who, What, When, Where, How, and Why questions to them. Being a student of a defined curriculum, we tend to stop asking these questions at a very early stage in our schools and start accepting the facts taught by our respective teachers.
At home, we are always
Who truly deserves all the gifts and best wishes on your birthday?
Definitely not the one, who’s celebrating the birthday but the one, who is the only reason behind our existence on this planet, our mother. The most powerful being on this planet who got gifted with all the powers of god ( super power).
She’s the one who’s taken all the never ending pain, which starts from the time we occupy her womb and it never ends. She’s the only source of unconditional love and protection, which we can ever imagine. Knowing all these facts, it’s time for us to ask the most fundamental question to ourselves, why should I celebrate
Every human is born as the CEO of their own body.
This is the fundamental reality which most of us don’t realize. Every human on this planet is born with trillions of workforce (cells) working in various departments ( organs ) to ensure that we live a healthy, successful and happy life and take good care of them in return. Each and every organ is taking care of a critical department
The art of communication - How to sell your idea ?
We always assume that , we are conveying an information to the other person while we are talking to them but the fact is we are presenting the data to the other person and it all depends on how he/she interprets this data in to an information, which is again interdependent on the other persons past experiences and exposure levels to the topic or idea which you are trying to convey.
I realized this
