Problems of a bookworm!

 Writing after a really long gap.
Does it ever happen that you're comfortably settled in your bed with a DAN BROWN  book in your hand, totally engrossed in it and suddenly, lights off! And then you're reminded by your angry mom that it is 12 am, and you have to go to school the next day. Every ardent book reader has at some point in their life faced such problems. I find myself  reading in the light of the fridge at 3 am.
     The most inhuman torture was my almirah eventually locked, and I had to spend my entire vacations without books (except the fact that i found the almirah's key one day and quietly took some books). A major problem of a bookworm is the trauma which occupies you after reading a book, which is worsened when you read another book and get overwhelmed by its trauma, too. Everything around you seems to be different, and sometimes you become so influenced that you compare real people with fictional characters. Some books like THE THORN BIRDS make you cry, while some books like ANGELS AND DEMONS  make you quiver with excitement. And then you'll hear people talking about sending you to a hospital for the mental.
     People, never say " Don't take a book seriously" to someone who's in dolor due to the fictional happenings as the person will inevitably be offended. Sometimes not only fiction but even non-fiction grabs your attention for a long time. THE STORY OF HELEN KELLER did the same to me. I was fascinated by her spirit and her achievements despite her ailment. I realized the fact that being disabled can't stop you from achieving what you've set out for.
HELEN KELLER

With such mesmerizing, evangelical, thrilling and irresistible books around you, it seems hard to cope up with the world.

Nothing lasts forever.

Hey, back after a long time. But a beautiful memory just grabbed my attention, and I just couldn't resist writing on it! I went to the 28th  National Convention organised by SPIC MACAY, a famous society for the promotion of Indian culture amongst youth. It was an enriching experience, and we stayed in NIT Karnataka. The place was extremely serene and beautiful! We were allowed to visit the beach nearby, and I was filled with ecstasy at the very mere thought of visiting the beach. I got a chance when everyone was away for yoga. It was about 5 am in the morning and the sun was rising. Suddenly gripped with excitement, I stuffed some snacks, my diary and my water bottle in my bag and rushed off to the beach. WOW. This was the only word that I could utter when I finally reached the beach.I exclaimed when I stepped on the soft sand of the beach.  The sun was rising, and the scene was beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I further took steps towards the cold, salt...

(DDIP Internship 2.0) Thousands of People are Waking Up With 24-Year-Old Nimisha to Embrace a Conscious and Healthy Plant-Based Lifestyle

Seema Jain has never felt "more alive and aligned". She expresses the same as she munches on her plant-based soya chips, organising her desk to plan the day. However, she was not always like this. Just 8 months ago, she faced sexual and physical abuse from her former husband. Traumatised and shaken, she did not have much to look forward to, except a painful, numbing feeling. This was before she joined Nimisha's mindfulness program. "I felt like I was swimming in the same sea of pain, but instead of being engulfed in it, I was looking at the pain with love and empathy, caressing the feelings like a baby," she says. 2 months down the road, she has launched her own startup to help broken wives heal, and is self-reliant. Meet the miraculous mindful warrior Nimisha was just 16 when she experienced her first panic attack. "It felt like I had no body, and only my nose remained to breathe," she recounts. In the subsequent years, she went through many panic att...
