Working Together to be a whole!

We are a diverse people, woven as a country into a tapestry of a rich culture with varied traditions, languages & values.

That's what defines us, that's what makes us who we are - a nation, a society, a family & individuals.

If you think our society is a mind-boggling complex group of people; as individuals we are no different.

As humans we are a diverse, complicated mix too.

Just as a country is a mix of its people, values, culture, beliefs...

...Humans too are a mix of their thoughts, feelings, emotions, values.

We are heroes & villains - sometimes mature - sometimes childish - all rolled into one.

And however conflicting our inner workings are - each one of us - each different part of us functions together to form a working whole contributing to the world - good, bad & somewhere in between.

With all the strife, restlessness, rage & violence inside & outside us humans have survived centuries, achieving amazing things that can only be described as a fantasy come true.

Wars, plague, pandemics, nuclear weapons, hate, bigotry - we have seen it all.

We however have not let the negatives overwhelm the positives. What has brought us here is - hope, love, faith, trust - these are powerful forces that have gotten us this far.

Our hearts at the end beat as one - how much ever we may deny it.

As individuals too we have seen it all. Hate, envy, love, anger, mistakes, regrets - these have shaped us to be who we are.

As a country and world too - we can work as a whole - all our diverse parts working together to create, empower & build rather than destroy.


Create don't ruin


Restore don't damage


Repair don't shatter


Put together don't divide


Unite don't break up


Connect don't separate


Bond don't alienate ... as individuals & together as a whole.


Now more than ever!

When Life Feels Unfair —And nothing seems to go your way

  You’ve been trying. You’ve been showing up. You’ve done everything right or at least, everything you knew to do. And still… You didn’t get picked. You didn’t get the job. You didn’t get the love, the break, the reward. Someone else did. And the worst part? They didn’t even try half as hard. It’s okay to admit that it hurts. That it stings. That you’re angry with the universe for handing out blessings like party favours and somehow skipping your name. Life, sometimes, doesn’t play fair. It gives the loud more visibility. The confident more credit. The well-connected more chances. But that’s not the end of your story. Because fairness was never promised. But growth , that’s still yours. Even in the silence. Even in the waiting. Even in the heartbreak. You may not be able to control what life gives you. But you control how you rise. Let the bitterness go. Let the disappointment breathe. And then… begin again. Because the truth is: You are not here just fo...

It wasn’t their words that hurt me. It was my reaction to them.

                                                          “You don’t know what you’re doing. You need to do better.” It wasn’t just the words. It was the sharp tone, the way they were said — loud and mean. The sting of being called out like that. My heart pounded. My face burned. My mind spun with a hundred retorts I didn’t say. And inside? I crumbled. For days, I replayed that moment in my head. Overanalysed every word, every look, every tiny detail. Why did they say that? Did I really mess up? Was I not good enough? And the more I thought about it, the worse I felt. Then, it hit me. It wasn’t their words that hurt me. It was my reaction to them. Viktor Frankl once said, “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms — to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances.” That day, I didn’t just lo...

Beyond the Cover: The True Essence of Books

Image
    They say, "Don't judge a book by its cover," yet in a world dazzled by beautiful covers, grand marketing, and glittering awards, it's easy to forget the essence lies within the pages and its content, the story, the characters, and the writing style. Imagine a vibrant, colourful book, adorned with frills and fancy words, drawing you in like a moth to a flame. It promises a visual feast, yet what about the feast for the mind? On the other side, is a simple, unassuming book with its cover devoid of extravagance. It may not scream for attention, but within its pages, it holds a well-spun story, an emotional ride, that makes you think and makes an impression on you. How often do we get captivated by the allure of the exterior, only to miss the treasure trove hidden within? Let's talk about the underappreciated power of simplicity and depth. A black-and-white picture can convey a profound narrative, offering layers of meaning that a splash of colour may struggle to ...
