Is Linkedin a real place?

-
Is something I ask myself on a daily basis, I think a lot of us do. But we still everyday go there and check out what has been happening with everyone else. “It's just a social media platform, and what’s wrong with keeping up?” you may say. That’s right, it is a social media platform and exactly that is my problem. Most likely prior to the “dot com frenzy”, social media was damn! It was beautiful, it had loopholes, but it was real, human and what not. The tens and thousands of memes, ideas, creativity everything, I was probably 2–3 years old, but like any millennial would say, “Those were the golden days”, and I for sure agree with you. Now I won’t talk about the ifs and buts of AI and everything, we all probably know that by now. But all I am saying is that, if I had to keep updates of that time, I probably would have done that happily. But now it is all very exhausting. Download the Medium app Maybe by 2050, I’d also say something like “The AI boom bought us all together, and we ...

Life is comical

-
I saw a meme, "23 is a funny age", yes, mam, yes it is, nothing is much different with 22. A few days ago I turned 22, and life has been a rollercoaster already?? Kinda sucks. Wdym I am not longer a kid and need to figure out life on my own. Damn.  I don't mind the living alone part, just the figuring out part is tiring. Maybe it gets better, it may but right now it's not better or even good! I mean I like my current life, no complaints, but you know what I mean.  So back to the title, Yes a few months ago, I had no idea, and kept circling back to one and only one thing, what do I want to be, what should I do, what the hell is happening??? Things have been better now but looking back that has been the scariest moment of my life, and idk other than experiencing that how else someone may understand it!!  Now I may laugh at that, but I could only cry back then about it ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ

H O L I: The festival of colours.   India is a country of not only diversity, full of people, places and food. But also, traditions, culture and community, communities that celebrate varied festivals and occasions.  With that in mind, India celebrated Holi, the festival of colours, as on 3rd and/or 4th March 2026. Why the two days, you may ask, well because there were a lunar eclipse and some people avoided to celebrate Holi on the 3rd.  But what actually is Holi? It is the celebration of triumph of good over evil.  In the Hindu religion, there is a legend. It goes as: Once there was a devoted follower of Lord Vishnu, named Prahlad. He was young but he had a strong devotion to his deity. But his father, Hirankashyapu , was against of any Vishnu believers, that meant Prahlad as well.  So as to punish Prahlad, he asks his sister Holika who was resistant to fire, to sit with Prahlad into a bonfire. But due to the spiritual interference Holika burns to ashes and Pra...

HOW I MET MY MOTHER

-
Like many other people, I loved my mother a lot, since childhood, I walked holding her hand, telling her even when I went to pee, I was clingy. She has always been my person, my mum.  As a toddler life is all chill and fun, only sleep, eat and play. At that age everyone is your friend and no one is really your enemy; you cry when your father gets a clean shave or when your mother loves your sibling more, to tease you. The easy part of life ends there. Then you enter your school, as a child pretty much unaware of how the world functions. You get some enemies at this stage but nothing much personal. Your mother is still your best friend and knows all about your life. Waking up to go to school every day, class politics and some bullying maybe, some struggles add-in, but all good otherwise. Then comes, the nightmare, the truth and face off with brutality, the teenage years. You push away most people, things and habits that you loved doing just a year ago. You have crushes, heart breaks...

App of the Week.

-
 Do you ever wonder to get knowledge and experience of a different culture from yours, like a whole other world, if you do, like I did, I may have something for you. The other day scrolling through Play Store for some fun game, I came across this app. It looked cool and to be honest kinda shady, I thought to myself this has got to be some Ai generated thing. I looked through the comments they were all looking cheesy and unreal as Ai is.  But I went ahead and downloaded it anyways. Guess what, I was wrong. The app was genuine with people actually writing out to others, in different parts of the world. They all shared their vivid experiences, all about their lives. It was really unexpected.  The name of the app was SLOWLY, it helps you to connect with friends from different countries. It is a pen pal app, you can choose your preferences and it gives a real delivery time experience like real letters. It feels so true. If you live let's say in America and your pen pal is from...

The grief.

-
 The loss of a loved one is something most of us have faced, to the ones who have not, lucky you. Coming to terms with a death in the family is something so cruel and brutal for this beautiful world. One morning you wake up all well and good but the fragile, uncertain life hits you with reality, with the hard hitting truths. You say to yourself, 'My parents are really getting old, they might leave me all alone in this world. I will miss them so much.' Then few years, months or days down the line the same turns reality. It's hard, to not feel saddened by the thought of this, the thought of end. It's hurtful, it's killing and it is definitely hitting. But it is true. Something that is real and not false. The thing is life throws a lot of valid/ invalid incidents for which we as a person decide how to move forward with. Such heavy grief, it can make you question your own sanity. But that's when it's time to be brave, to not kneel down to the demon. Instead be c...
