Being good is overrated. At least, that's what the rebels and the misfits would have you believe. But let's take a moment to understand this age-old question: how good is it to be good? Being good may seem like the noble path, but let's face it - it can be downright boring. Who wants to be the goody-two-shoes, always following the rules and doing what's expected? Where's the excitement in that? On the other hand, being bad has its perks. You get to break the rules, challenge the status quo, and live life on the edge. It's like being the protagonist of your own action-packed movie, where every moment is filled with adrenaline and unpredictability. But here's the twist: being good is not just about following rules and being predictable. It's about making a positive impact on the world, even if it means sacrificing some of that rebellious spirit. Aah!!!! Sacrificing? That's right. Being good requires discipline, selflessness, and a willingness to p...

Karwachauth, the beautiful Indian festival of love, devotion, and fasting, is upon us. A day that celebrates the bond between husbands and wives, where wives observe a day-long fast for the well-being and longevity of their beloved husbands.

We, the food lovers of the world, wake up each day with dreams of the delectable dishes that await us.

The clock ticks away mercilessly as the day progresses, and all we can think about is our favorite snacks and dishes. Chips, biscuits, soups, and an endless array of munchies at the office are our daily companions, but today, they're cruelly out of reach. The stomach growls in pro...

Life is often compared to a game, but what if we took that analogy a step further? What if life itself is nothing more than a toy, and we are the figurines being manipulated by an unseen force? In this sarcastic and thought-provoking article of mine , I shall explore the idea that life has turned us into mere playthings, subject to the whims and fancies of a higher power. Let's start with our Body which is The Puppeteers of Existence........ Imagine a group of celestial beings sitting around a cosmic game board, controlling the events of our lives with a flick of their fingers. We are but pawns in their grand scheme, their entertainment. They manipulate the strings of fate, pulling us this way and that, all for their amusement. Life, it seems, has made us their ultimate playthings. Moving towards The Illusion of Free Will ......... We like to believe that we have control over our own lives, that we make our own choices. But let's face it: life is just one big illusion. From the...

Life is an intricate tapestry woven with threads of attachment.

In Golgappa's embrace, I find life's delight, A symphony of flavors, like days and nights. Each Golgappa, a metaphor for human soul, Holds stories untold, making us whole. The crisp of the shell, a protective wall, Like the armor we wear to stand tall. But beneath the surface, a world so vast, Like emotions we hide, from future to past. Dipped in tangy waters, a burst of surprise, Like tears of joy, or when sorrow lies. Life's essence lies in these moments of taste, Sweet, sour, and spicy, no drop to waste. The fillings inside, diverse and profound, Like human traits that astound. Some soft like chickpeas, tender and kind, Others fiery like chilies, passion defined. As we savor each Golgappa, let us reflect, On the paths we walk, the choices we select. For like these treats, life is a fleeting pleasure, To be cherished and relished, a limited treasure. So, let us relish each Golgappa with glee, Embracing life's journey, wild and free. And when we leave this world behind...
