HAPPIEST DAY IN INDIA



22 January 2024 aka "The happiest day of India" you may ask the reason for this happiness.. but it'll be quite hard to explain the history of five hundred years in few words.. It's the awaited happiness of 500 years, we waited, we faught, we built, we won.. 

It wouldn't be wrong to say this day is one of the most significant day of Indian history, and that's not because of the religious elements.. that only makes the half of it, The most significant part of this celebration is India recognising India, India embracing India, embracing the culture, embracing the history, embracing all the minor cultural details we used to brush aside as if it's not the most important or logical things, it's not rocket science, or western lifestyle or technology to fawn over.. 

It would have been a dream come true for legends like "Shri Arubindo" who raised his concern for India against becoming a westernised version of itself. Witnessing this event I can confidently  say that India will never face this predicament because the glorious consciousness is alive, the culture is thriving, no one is looking at the west anymore we are all looking at Ayodhya for the supreme guidance of "Shri Ram Chandra".

Many would try to minimize this events role in shaping India's Conscience and wanting to keep it contained as a Religious event concerning the majority religion of India thus proving it can't be beneficial for a democratic and secular country.. but anyone looking at these events will notice it breaking borders of religion, state, cast, creed, language and country it's a global event now, people are praising the Ram Mandir not just for it being a Hindu temple, people are praising the perseverance shown by several generations of people, preserverance, persistence and plea for.. ? A right, a right to pray.. where their Lord was born which is known and recognised world wide.. the birthplace of Ram was Ayodhya yet Ayodhya waited for several hundred years to have the temple of their Lord, to pray where he was born, it was a struggle, a bloodied struggle but it was a sacrifice people loved to make, to join in the struggle, to put their efforts however little or big towards the direction of making the Temple. 

India has a history of invaders, it's not a pleasant chapter of Indian history but one that has shaped how we look at it now, the reason behind the long wait for the temple can be blamed on this, but independence didn't made things any easier, a culture of appeasement began for the minority communities and Ram mandir can not make it to the priority list, but then a government which was titled as a "Hindu rastravadi" Hindu nationalist party made it their priority and agenda, and it was done, the supreme court made the decision, out of a religious context just a property dispute, a very long property dispute.. anyways the important part was the victory, it's not the victory of a God, or Avtar, or supernatural being, it's a victory of devotees, of common people achieving uncommon feats, it's a victory of a culture and nation.

'What in the world..?' 'That's right, what in the world..?' 'We should hurry and grab some water buckets we can still stop the fire.' Mary spoke hurriedly. 'It's too late.' Jenna spoke in a final tone. 'But..' 'It's too late Mary, there is nothing left to save here, all the grains for this year is already burnt.' Natalia explained. 'That means we will go hungry..' Mary thought 'We will die.. Nat!' Mary exclaimed.  It was not that far from the truth, it was actually a very real possibility. Amarat was a country which doesn't had very much fertile lands. Most of the landmass included rocky mountains, steep cliffs, thousand years old rock and granite caves, the country had many mountains and suffered from frequent volcanic eruptions over a long period of time the forests and farming lands developed but still they were about 17% of the whole surface area that's the reason why food cultivation an...

Strangers on the internet are still strangers

Strangers on the internet are still strangers That line right there, I want to drill that line in the minds of every teenager using the internet. Because the balatant ignorance of that little fact, is not healthy. I know that back in the days, one important reason for  the internet to exist, was that it can connect people from all over the world, and it still is..  But we can't ignore the increased rate of cyber bullying & cyber crimes in the past decade. Connecting with strangers comes with it's own set of benefits and downfalls. Benefits such as broadening of the horizon, new perspective, exposure to different things, culture, people and perspectives which is all very nice but the downfalls can be so very drastic.. And if you are like me who doesn't like anything drastic, you take caution; for safety reasons ofcourse.. So first thing first never take anything on the internet literally, like NEVER EVER. Because no matter how much relatable content you have ...

I was sitting at a bus stop earphone plugged in, and lost in another world of melodious ecstasy, but the city around me wasn't lost they were pretty much woke, as  people roam around without a care in the world. The theme of the night was definitely free spirited, before something else took over whispers, shouts, camera shuttering and alot of yelling and cursing. "They took every term necessary." "She deserved it!" "Did you saw her face! must be hard walking out of the studio she ruled for more than a decade." "She had completely lost it!" "The money had gotten to her head." "She was so rude and undeserving." "I'm actually so happy it was a long time coming." "She was no struggler she was a rich brat gone lucky."  "Honestly I can't stand her. This is not enough, they are only cancelling her show! I want her banned!!" "I know right.." "So as you can see people...
