The Tangled Thoughts

The mornings are mist-laden, draped in cotton-soft clouds. A saffron surge of sunlight unfurls. Hens stir, sounding alarms to mechanical minds. Friends remain gentle, warm with quiet care. My heels aligned with the urgency of the moment, striving to chase a train already departed. Heavy breaths inhales and exhales held their strength, yet the roaming mind proved far more relentless. Home rests in stillness and ease, yet thoughts hum restlessly. At times, my family’s voices slip past unheard, while my heartbeat speaks with piercing clarity. The world beyond shows kindness, but the ache within my chest shows none. Beat on, in faithful rhythm for should you stop, the soul cannot endure.

 गलती किसकी थी? बहुत प्यार करने वालों की या धोखा देने वालों की? मैं डूब गई, जैसे मछली पानी में। Whose fault was it? Those who loved too much, or those who betrayed? I drowned, like a fish in water

  Everyone is grown up in different environment. Parenting has different styles. Parenting in my perspective is how parents bring up their child through the help of certain beliefs, customs, values and tradition. The child will likely to have qualities such as their behavior, attitude that is due to the parenting style.   The different types of parenting   Authoritative Parenting Authoritative parenting is also known as Ideal style of parenting. Parents impose rigid rules. And explain why is it so.   However, they also hear from the children and how they feel. Parents of this type are caring, as well as strict. They help their children to make good decisions. This eventually creates the children to feel safe and cared. They grow up to become assertive and happy. Example Situation:   A child willingly to go out with friends at night, the parents don’t allow or give permission not that they didn’t want their child to enjoy the nightlife but rathe...

  I never knew what love was. Is it falling for the same person again and again, even after they hurt you? Or is it like the months of a year repeating, yet returning with new experiences, fresh hopes, and hard-earned lessons? Is love about keeping promises, or about breaking them and calling it growth? Will they accept you as you are, or reject you like an interview panel searching for someone better? Is it living joyfully with the present girlfriend or boyfriend, or remaining trapped in the past even after finding someone new? Does choosing not to post her on social media mean you are unsure of the relationship, or afraid of losing attention from the opposite sex? If Ambani, a billionaire businessman, can make time for his spouse and family, what stops you from spending quality time? If the plan to marry belonged to two people, why does one execute the same plan with someone else? Possessiveness can be sweet but when does it become toxic...

  In the age of rapidly blooming technology, social media has occupied a significant position in human life. From grabbing attention to influencing minds, these platforms encourage users to spend long hours scrolling endlessly. This raises an important question: is the growth of social media platforms a boon or a bane? As a child, I was unaware of how technology functioned. Gradually, with the emergence of various applications and social media platforms, I began to understand how individuals are drawn into a digital bubble for different causes and reasons. WhatsApp initially served as a platform to exchange wishes and greetings—especially “good morning” and “good night” messages. Over time, it evolved into a medium for sharing news, which often includes both authentic and fake information. Many such messages appear convincing, leading people to assume they are true. As a result, misinformation is repeatedly reshared with numerous contacts, amplifying its impact. On the posit...

Beauty is admired, but never held long enough. Compliments fall soft, while silence roars between us. A hand is held— not tightly, not forever. Eyes meet, say what lips are too afraid to confess. Words are spoken, yet none stay. Cold coffee weeps, droplets bleeding down the glass, mirroring the tears I refuse to hide. The cut is plastered, pain dressed up as healing. Lipstick-stained napkins are folded like fragile memories, hidden inside a wallet meant to remember me. But the wallet is lost— and with it, every promise. Just as easily, he lost me.

  Privacy, in my opinion, is allowing individuals to have their own space and respecting their personal boundaries. Life often feels like smooth sailing when it is lived privately. In today’s world, people tend to be over the moon about their achievements—ranging from children scoring high marks in board examinations or competitive exams to adults celebrating promotions and career milestones. But do achievements in academics or professions truly teach one how to lead a private life? Sometimes, silence itself carries an aura more powerful than words. From the very day a child is born, parents experience immeasurable joy. Many feel an urge to show the world that their child is fortunate to have them. This is often expressed through grand celebrations, especially the first birthday. Today, the number of tiers on a cake seems to decide the wealth and status of the parents. Inviting relatives, friends, and colleagues is a joyful affair—but what about celebrations within the four walls...
