“Restart the lost conversation; it brings peace of mind and happiness…!”
Yesterday, I unexpectedly met an old friend. It had been almost ten years since we had last spoken. Why did our communication stop? I tried hard to find a reason from my side, but I failed. So, I decided to wait for some time, accepting the situation as it was. As time passed, we gradually…

“My wife and son’s company is my true support..!”
Who are your favorite people to be around? For me, the most beloved people in my life are my wife, Smita, and my son, Soham. Spending time with them is the most joyful moment for me. Conversations with my wife, our daily chats at home, the lessons I learn from her experiences, and simply being…

“Small experiences and decisions in daily life shape our destiny…!”
The annual exams provide us only with an assessment of our school education, but in the test of life, new questions arise every day, new decisions must be made, and every choice has consequences. Therefore, along with bookish knowledge, learning from real-life experiences is even more important. The small incidents, challenges, successes, and failures in…

“Constant pressure of fear is the enemy of self-confidence..!”
Instead of spending life in fear of making mistakes, it is more beneficial to accept them and learn from them. Opportunities come only once, and if they are lost due to fear, the regret is even greater. Before striving for perfection in anything, taking the first step is important. As someone rightly said – “Failure…

“My Sandals: A Companion Beyond the Threshold…!”
Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you. I don’t like wearing slippers or shoes. I have never worn them in my life. Back in school, there was a strict dress code, so I had to wear shoes during school hours, but they used to hurt my feet. Slippers kept…

“Anger can be controlled only through understanding and patience…!”
Anger is like a storm—sudden, intense, and sometimes destructive. It lies deep within us and erupts with great force when the right conditions arise. This emotion is completely natural, but controlling it is essential, as unchecked anger can negatively impact our relationships, mental well-being, and overall life. Anger should not take control of us; instead,…

“Only the relationships where rights are earned last a lifetime…!”
Relationships are of two types—one that is maintained as a formality and the other that is nurtured wholeheartedly. Formal relationships have limitations, restraint, and a certain boundary within which one can express themselves. However, true and cherished relationships have no such restrictions—you can freely express your emotions, whether it be anger, joy, sorrow, or stress,…

“The Best Gift of My Life – My Son…!”
Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received. Throughout my journey, I have received numerous honors. As a playwright and journalist, I have been awarded various prizes, certificates, and accolades. Each recognition was a testament to my hard work, and the acknowledgment from society itself felt like a valuable gift. However, beyond all these…

“In your life, only 5-10 friends hold a place…!”
Yesterday, I wrote about the list of virtual friends in my mobile phonebook. Many of my friends interpreted it differently. Some might have wondered if I am becoming a loner. But I firmly believe that life can never be truly fulfilling without friends. However, what we truly need is the companionship of a few close…

“Low income and high essential expenses; that’s the real struggle…!”
Write about your approach to budgeting. Budgeting is an essential tool for financial management. Properly creating a budget makes it easier to achieve financial stability and long-term goals. However, saying that this textbook-like idealistic concept serves as a guide for middle-class salaried individuals is quite laughable. For them, the only steady income is their fixed…
