What we never say to our mothers...

My dearest mother,

I really don’t know why I am writing this letter to you; or what I want to tell you; or how I am going to tell you anything. Still, I feel like writing this. I will not be perfect in my language, I cannot be very expressive, because I am your little child who is still struggling in this big world; I am still that small innocent kid that you’ve been seeing for years. Only my height or weight has increased.

Or maybe I am wrong… maybe I have changed a lot…

That feeling called Happiness...

I was sitting against the seamless Pacific Ocean in Haeundae Beach, one of the most famous beaches of South Korea located in the coastal city of Busan.

There were hundreds of people around me. Men and women of mid-thirties cheering with their families, young couples in their early twenties having a merry time near the ocean, little children playing with conches and sand, some elderly  people sitting by and probably counting the last few days of their lives. It was just like any other beach I had visited – full of activity, smiling faces, the rustling sound of water and the cool sea breeze…

I really did not know with whom I was to compete and why. I was totally clueless.

Top five things we must learn from Koreans

I am on my first trip out of India. Before I stepped out of my country, I had heard a lot about civilisations outside India. We always see beautiful landscapes, swanky terminals, posh roads and mesmerising skyscrapers. However, I am fortunate that I get to stay here for a period of three months. Because this period is long enough to see things that are much more important.

Do we love the man in the mirror?

One fine day I was listening to this good song from Audioslave, called “Be yourself!” The lyrics of the same are written below. In a conscious effort to understand the meaning of the song, I set my mind to thinking deeper, and realised that there is so much for us to learn.

Not from the song, but from within ourselves.

Using the Power Within you!

Do you often feel sad? Do you feel there is something wrong, and things can be better? Do you feel life is very tough? Well...you are not alone. But then, this is definitely not how you wanted it to be. It is a small life, try not to ruin it. And trust me – there is a POWER WITHIN you, and it is enough to cure everything. You only have to harness it...

Exam preparation tips - Be ready to fly high!

Some people have been blessed with such a life that they often wonder whether they really deserve it or not! But to look at it systematically, the word “deserve” is itself questionable. What do we really deserve? What does ‘deserve’ mean? These are some of the questions that I am trying to answer in this post.

My Dream & My Destiny...

Dreams don’t exist…they never do. But they form a firm base to conjure what exists!

Smiling, I sleep at night

‘Cause I want to go to the dream

Where I could see from a height

That shining radiant beam!

A Prayer and a Realisation!

Oh Lord... The Mightiest of all…!

In Your hands, lies my fate…

You are so wise, so high, and so tall!

Unaffected by love and hate!
