Depression is a word that carries weight, yet many avoid discussing it because they don’t perceive it as a serious problem. The reality is that depression doesn’t always come with clear signs, making it difficult to recognize. It can stem from various sources, often without us even realizing. Let’s dive into 3 key reasons why you may be feeling depressed and how to address them. 1. False Expectations and Unrealistic Idols From the moment we begin our journey in life, we are conditioned to strive for excellence. Society tends to view anything less than the best as a failure, which creates unrealistic expectations .  We grow up believing that we must excel at everything, and when we don’t, it leads to feelings of inadequacy. This constant chase for perfection wears us down, leaving us demoralized when we fall short. Over time, these false expectations can destroy our self-esteem, pushing us into a cycle of self-doubt and depression.  It’s important to redefine succe...

Chapter 1 Blood covered his hands. He ran, seeing flashes of everything, sprinting as if his life depended on it. Exhaustion overwhelmed him, but he pushed forward, constantly looking over his shoulder. Suddenly, the city plunged into darkness, and he tripped, crashing to the ground. Losing consciousness, he could hear thunder crack in the distance.   A loud police siren jolted him awake. The bright sun spilled through his bedroom window, and he threw the sheets off his body. His mother’s voice echoed from downstairs.   "Every single day! You’re going to be late again!" she yelled.   Yawning, he stretched and smiled, catching the aroma of sizzling butter.   "Coming!" he called back, getting ready for college.   "You worry too much," his father’s voice chimed in. "He’s going to be just fine. He was up all night working on an assignment, right?" His father winked.   Sahil smiled, stuffing the last toast in his ...

Humility is an essential trait that defines a person's character. It’s the quality that has the power to leave a lasting impression on people, making you either memorable or forgettable. Here are three compelling reasons why you should embrace humility in your life. 1. It’s Completely Free Being humble doesn’t cost a thing. You don’t need wealth or status to practice humility. Regardless of your financial or social standing, humility is a choice that reflects your appreciation for the life you've been given.  It elevates you as a human being and transforms your existence into one with deeper purpose. By living humbly, you gain a new perspective on life, allowing you to handle daily challenges with peace and grace. 2. It Benefits You (Immensely) Anger and arrogance can ruin relationships, escalate conflicts, and drive people apart. Often, the things we become upset about are trivial compared to the damage we cause in moments of anger.  On the other hand, humility s...

In life, it’s often easy to get wrapped up in caring about things that ultimately don’t matter. While it’s irresponsible to be careless in general, there are times when you have to ask yourself: why do you even care? Here are three things you shouldn’t care about, even though most of us do. 1. What Others Think About You In a world full of hypocrites, it’s common to be criticized for anything and everything. What others think of you is one of those things you should stop caring about.  Why waste your energy worrying about someone else’s opinion, especially when you don’t even know if they’re genuinely thinking about you?  People often say negative things and move on, forgetting about it the moment the conversation ends. The truth is, toxic minds focus on what others are doing , and you shouldn’t care about their judgments. Stay confident in your own path, and move at your own pace. You don’t need anyone’s validation to succeed. 2. Unrealistic Expectations from Ot...

We all know how vital the environment is and how much we rely on it for everything from clothing to technology. Yet, despite the constant warnings, many of us remain indifferent to the changing climate and environmental degradation. We tend to think of these issues as distant problems that won’t affect us directly. Here are three reasons why you may not care about the environment, even though you should. 1. Little to No Immediate Personal Impact You hear about the need to save the environment and reduce carbon footprints, but it doesn't seem to impact you on a personal level right now.  You still feel hot in summer , but that’s always been the case, so you simply turn up the air conditioning.  It’s colder than usual ? No problem—just turn up the heat. Irregular rain patterns or melting ice caps don’t seem like immediate concerns if your home isn’t flooding or your livelihood isn’t directly affected.  Personal problems take priority, and as a result, concerns ...

Politics is often seen as a distant concept, something for politicians and news channels to handle. However, it is an integral part of our everyday lives, whether we realize it or not. From the simple decisions we make within our families to the larger decisions that shape our country, politics is all around us . Here are three reasons why understanding and engaging in politics is important in life. 1. Knowledge and Empowerment Politics is not limited to heated debates on news channels or social media. It is the tool that empowers citizens to make decisions that directly impact their lives and the lives of those around them.  By getting involved in politics, you gain a better understanding of how society functions and how policies affect you personally. Being "apolitical" and then complaining about laws is like being in the kitchen while a meal is being prepared and then criticizing the outcome without offering input.  Democracies offer citizens the opportunity to partic...

Feminism is a term that aims to define the social, economic, and political equality of the sexes .  While the movement has achieved significant recognition for women and their issues, the interpretation of feminism has become more divided over time. The word itself is often misunderstood, and there are misconceptions that are slowly eroding the original goals of the movement.  Here are three things that are damaging the concept of equality that feminism once stood for. 1. Equality Isn't Always the Goal Anymore Feminism originally fought for gender equality —the idea that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.  However, in today’s society, many modern feminists seem to push for special treatment based on gender rather than true equality.  This contradicts the original aim of feminism, which was about dismantling gender-based privileges, not creating new ones. The Seneca Falls Convention of 1848 marked the beginning of the feminist mov...

Growth can mean different things to different people, depending on where they are in life.  For some, it’s about achieving better grades, for others, it’s about securing a better job or ensuring family happiness.  However, there are times when it feels like we’re stuck and not progressing as we should.  Often, the limitations we face aren’t external, but internal.  Here are three reasons why you might be hindering your own growth . 1. Procrastination Procrastination is one of the biggest barriers to growth.  You delay starting something important, choosing instead to focus on trivial tasks that contribute nothing to your goals.  You may spend hours thinking about why you haven’t achieved your ambitions instead of taking the small steps needed to make progress.  The time you spend overthinking could be used productively to reach your goals, but procrastination keeps you stuck in a cycle of inaction. 2. Low Self-Esteem Low self-esteem leads...

I remember my childhood days,  that comfort i felt in my skin nothing could ever make me feel sad for long, i cried, i laughed, even fell and got scarred but i was never sad.  Those moments of school, enjoying every single lecture as if it was something new to do, something innovative and then afterwards coming home whether it be by bus, rickshaw or a van.  Those adolescent feelings of rage at everything and everyone and teenage fury of being unable to control my circumstances or even a small thing that i would take for granted every time nowadays.  That time all alone where i would sit and think about things that needed to be explored, places i would go to enjoy rain or maybe become an astronaut and go to space, those daydreaming sessions had me in splits of all the things i could do.  I can now clearly remember the mouldy smell of a home which had been abandoned for a long time until we moved in, that distinct smell it had and the beauty of the mulberry tree t...

"Only women, children and dogs are loved unconditionally. A man is only loved under the condition that he provides something."                                                 -Chris Rock Man, a simple word containing 3 letters brings with it a heavy burden and a barrage of responsibilities, men are the first ones to help and the last ones to be praised in the room.  Maybe because they've been living a whole different life altogether comapred to what they thought their lives would be when they grow up. The journey of a man is never easy there are people in his life who influence him to become what they want him to be, never even given the choice of what he wants himself to be. A man is taught, coerced, forced into being the tough, fierce, ruthless being that we see ourselves, expectations all around, parents trying to implement their view of what a man ...

Before you start battering me down avert your attention to the fact that why do we need to specify a 24 hour period each year to signify the importance of women in our lives.  We've all been birthed by one, all of us look upto a mom, a sister, or even a colleague who's achieved better than us. There's always a woman in our life who makes us want to be a better man. So why the need for a day dedicated to women, because we need awareness, as simple as that sounds it's the need of the hour to make people realise what value women hold in our lives.  There's a plethora of stories that portray women conquering great odds to achieve something in life, I'm not gonna tell any though, because the word woman in itself says something.  I think the reason women have been suppressed since the origin of human race is because we knew they were a little better than us in some way, that extra pair of chromosome didn't just give them the edge. It gave them ability to create ...

Have you ever gazed up at the night sky, feeling utterly insignificant in the grand scheme of things? The universe is vast and overwhelming, yet we find ourselves here, conscious beings capable of contemplating our own existence. The Cosmic Perspective When we compare ourselves to the scale of the universe – from the microscopic to the galactic – it's easy to feel small and insignificant. The Earth is a mere speck in the vastness of space, and our solar system is just one of billions in our galaxy alone. The Purpose of Existence Despite our cosmic insignificance, human life holds intrinsic value. We are unique beings capable of love, creativity, and self-awareness. Our purpose lies not in our cosmic scale, but in our ability to make a difference.     Leaving a Legacy One way we can find meaning is by leaving a legacy. Whether it's through our children, our work, or our contributions to society, we can make a lasting impact. By sharing our knowledge, experiences, and values, we...

Introduction to A strange world It was raining outside when he first opened his eyes to this strange world.  Huge dead pieces of hard rocks and a strange kind of species living inside them, quite confusing for the little life to comprehend, it was cold and no place to take shelter in wherever he went all he got was judging eyes and evil beings disguised in the cloak of humility, he couldn't understand what it was about him that made them treat him this way but he knew he was different somehow.  All he did was plead and plead and nobody listened, as if nobody cared as to what happens to him. Way of life Morally and spiritualy crushed he began fighting them every chance he got when he started to grow up, fighting for life in this cruel world, fighting for a little love that he deserved, he never knew love or compassion all he knew was hate and pity but no helping hand in times of his need.  He began hating everyone just as they hated him. Scared of any helping hand for it c...

The Dangers of Digital Dependence: Reclaiming Our Minds In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to become overwhelmed by the constant stream of information and distractions. We're always connected, always on the go, and always looking for the next quick fix. But this constant reliance on technology is taking a toll on our minds and our relationships. Consider the following example: A farmer who has spent years working the land by hand becomes accustomed to using a tractor to make his work easier. However, when the tractor breaks down and he is forced to rely on his own physical strength, he finds himself unprepared. This is a metaphor for our reliance on technology: while it can be a helpful tool, it can also make us dependent and vulnerable. Many of us have become so reliant on our smartphones that we can't imagine life without them. We use them for everything from checking our email to finding directions to calculating math problems. But this constant reliance on techn...
