Reading Is Bliss

Life is a maze of unending obstacles. One has no option but to keep dealing with the daily humdrum of life without so much as a break. More than often, there is an urge inside each one of us to just leave everything and live in a new world. Though that is not actually possible but there sure is a way out, a temporary refuge filled with thrills and wisdom. And that world, my friends, is found in Books.

Books have the power to immediately teleport you into a completely new setting, living the life of another person. It is you who gets to choose what kind of surroundings you want to enter. Whether you enjoy romance or have a fascination towards suspense and thrillers or history or anything in the world. All you have to do is pick up a book and start reading through the pages and within no time, you’d be there- experiencing a whole new adventurejust like a reality. A lot of people consider reading books as a boring activity whereas in truth, it is the most entertaining and beneficial habit a person can acquire. It lets you forget your problems and anything else without much hassle and replenishes your energy to tackle situations.


Someone once said, “If you don’t like reading, it’s probably because you haven’t found the right book yet.”  If you don’t trust me, give it a try. Take any book which matches your interests. It can be a love story or a murder mystery or something motivational or anything else. If you don’t know what to start with, ask someone who reads to help you select something. Once you’ve found it, start reading. Begin slowly with maybe 3-5 pages a day and keep increasing and before you know it, you’ll be reading 100 pages a day. It may be hard to concentrate in the initial period but don’t give up. It’s totally worth the effort. Books will become your best friends, eager to share the most charming tales.

Protection or Prison

  Under the guise of safety  We keep our doors closed Merely imagining the world beyond We accept to be forever entombed What we fail to recognize Is that we are our own prison Limiting our own powers We have given up our own freedom What started as protection Has now become a jail That which we are so afraid to break out of That which has become our excuse to fail   The reality is not what we believe Rather, we can actually take charge Change the direction our destiny takes And break free from the tower so large -Tamrina

The Evolving Lyrics of Life

I often say music is the sound of the soul and basically equivalent to oxygen for me. I know it sounds like a cliché but hear me out. All my life, starting from as early as I can remember, music has been my constant companion: in my joys and sorrows, smiles and tears, greetings and losses, it has been an integral part of almost all of my core memories. It inspires me, holds my hand when I am alone and even makes me make sense of my complicated emotions when I am unable to. Something similar happened a couple days ago and I want to talk about it.   Chaahe jo tumhe poore dil se, milta hai wo mushkil se. Aisa jo koi kahin hai, bas wo hi sabse haseen hai. Uss haath ko tum thaam lo, wo meharban kal ho na ho I am sure a majority of you have heard these lines many times and we all have our own interpretations of them, I did too. My understanding of these lines emphasized how we should embrace the love that walks into our lives and hold on to it as it is a rare thing to find but also, we m...

My 2024 Wrapped

  I have contemplated writing this post, wondering if I am really in a mood to travel back down the memory lane and explore the year I had. But here I am, reflecting on what all went down in the last year, just as a way for myself to document my journey through the chaos. I started 2024 in a not so good mood, with dealing  emotions that were just too heavy to be explained in words or even understood, from feeling lost and alone to at the same time feeling guilty about letting down the people who cared for me, it was a complicated beginning. Then came a happy moment when I attended my first ever concert, something I desperately wanted to do. On the work front, I continued my MPhil journey, learning things I assumed I wouldn’t be able to do and finding ways to accomplish my goals in ways that were interesting to say the least. Feelings of being overwhelmed and not doing enough for my goals were a near constant, often to the point of being counterproductive. I learn...
