My Dream House

All people see houses as a place to gain shelter and give basic needs such as water and somewhere to get your mail sent lol. But I have more of a different requirement list, which most would find odd. I see a house as a commitment, same as any commitment that you make to aContinue reading “My Dream House”

Education or Ignorance?

So many kids have been left behind, by the system. This is not only an error, but an actual killing of high potential. They are murdering abilities by this mediocre effort towards giving kids an actual and relevant education. Why is children’s education treated as a group project rather then as the snowflakes they actuallyContinue reading “Education or Ignorance?”

Time Conundrum

Ok, now for those reading, this may sound mad, but it does actually make sense if you keep reading. I wrote while following a thought process and I didn’t explain the reasons (because I knew them) as I worked towards my conclusion. So, if you are lost, work your way forward and if you stillContinue reading “Time Conundrum”

Womens Contributions in Sciences, Mathematics and Technology

When I saw a news article saying “Boys not only perform better in maths, they are also more confident about the subject than girls“, I seriously just took a sip of my coffee and said “Poor boys are feeling inferior again, so they’re using small factor statistics to put women down.” They do not lookContinue reading “Womens Contributions in Sciences, Mathematics and Technology”

Grief

You first hear the news, then there is a pause. That pause lasts for an eternity. You see everything, past, present and your now shattered future. It doesn’t even sink in until you watch each thing you had imagined, break as if smashed with a hammer. You yell at whoever is breaking everything, just toContinue reading “Grief”

Justice

Human nature is corrupt and explains why society is corrupt. I put in the Train dilemma to give a better explanation – The train problem is a thought experiment in philosophy that asks whether it’s morally right to sacrifice one person to save five. It’s a famous ethical dilemma that’s also used in psychology andContinue reading “Justice”

STRATEGIES TO DEAL WITH ANXIETY

Focus on Breathing I found that focusing on breathing made me more anxious, due to my intense focus, but other people have success with breathing exercises. Here is a diaphragmatic breathing demo from youtube. This article is a study that explains some of the benefits/research on the effect of diaphragmatic breathing from the National LibraryContinue reading “STRATEGIES TO DEAL WITH ANXIETY”

Hope, Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust

I believe in Hope, as a main tool when dealing with any struggle. Hope is what makes us try to be strong during the toughest battles, either internal or external. Hope, keeps us fighting the despair of every day and makes us tougher. Hope is a wonderful quality of humans. The only time to beContinue reading “Hope, Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust”

ART

We create, we imagine untold stories. We paint, we sketch, we draw… but nothing is enough. We are untold artists within a sea of creative talent. It sometimes feels as if every story has already been told. Every voice has been heard from and we just rewrite or recreate the same. I read more andContinue reading “ART”

Goodbye

We often say Goodbye, to anyone or anything which no longer holds a place in our lives. This by no means is saying that we let go of the person or thing we are saying goodbye to. The word “Goodbye”, has great significance in my life. I have said it more than I would want toContinue reading “Goodbye”
