Heartbreak/Grief is an emotion that mentally drains you because losing someone, seeing your loved ones hurt, etc is painful. People say it is hard to fix what is already been broken because broken pieces can't give us the original beauty back which is true. It is not always a lover breaking your heart that's not just the cause of heartbreak. There are different levels of grief which people go through in their everyday life. This has a negative impact on our mental health which leads to depression, anxiety, hypertension, etc.  It also leads to eating issues, sleep-deprived, lack of motivation, self-doubt, weight gain/ loss, and in a general sense a whole nervous breakdown. Men and Women equally get affected by the pain of heartbreak. The only difference is the way they handle the emotions and overcome it.  Why does it hurt so much? Studies have shown that people face heartbreak because our hormones release some glands to our brain where we feel emotional pain as same as physica...

Childhood is the most treasured part of life. Everything about childhood is magnificent and mesmerizing. Yesterday morning Me my parents just wanted to go back to those golden days so we thought to gape through my childhood albums. That nostalgic moment could be sensed in the air how my mom started to babber about my infancy as soon as she saw the photos and how my dad started to cherish my cuteness and innocence. Everything about my childhood was magical as I'm the firstborn. It is the most astonishing feeling and emotion to vibe about childhood memories. The only imagination we understood being kids was endless fun. The only state of mind we focused on was to play with safety measures guarded by our elders. Every photo in the album had a story behind it and my parents reminisce each and every minute detail about it. Most of childhood days were spent at my maternal grandparents' home as I was born there in Bangalore. There was one photo of me in some bright dress and I was pos...

Young mankind is suffering from depression and many other health factors. They may be physically healthy but psychologically/ psychiatrically weak. The context to bring in knowledge about the matter and talk about it came with the saddening news of the death of the most passionate actor of our generation Sushant Singh Rajput who said to be was battling with depression for 6 months. It is aching to come across such news in the middle of nowhere. The i...

The quote " I f you are emotionally attached to your tribe ,   religion or political leaning   to   the   point that truth and   justice become secondary   considerations,   your   education and exposure are useless.   If you   cannot reason beyond petty sentiments,   you   are   a   liability ." by Chuba Okadigbo. Should this make we all rethink our own philosophies and how we engage in more civil conversations, knowing that our truths may not be the only truths or that they are not above all other. We leaders should think and act according to the grievance and enhance our mindset according to the change required. It is vital to challenge our own mindset, embrace the diversity and debate for justice. People are solely attached to their culture and ethics, where they don't try to acknowledge the circumstance that one has to suffer from.  Our education system has not formed us to face the real world crisis. It ha...

                                           Ever witnessed about the word" Infibulation". Infibulation is the practice of excising the clitoris and labia of a girl or woman and stitching together the edges of the vulva to prevent sexual intercourse. The vagina is sealed leaving a small hole for the woman to menstruate and urinate. The girl's legs are been tied up with the rope for 15- 40 days to let the stitches and wound heal. The stitches reopen on the wedding night with the help of the husband so he can be intimate with her. Just imagining this brings shivers down the spine exactly what mental trauma she might go through and when those stitches open and she has to have sex. The pain she goes through is unexplainable.                                        I was referring to the ...
