The happiness when you own a thing !

Image
image credit  Mridhu.B.R We at present are living in a globalized world, just call it a global village. Here our tastes and preferences are not ours anymore, it is controlled by external factors that surround us. We are influenced in a wider range by various entities which choose things for us and we get very little chance to choose the right product based on our needs. Consider a girl who plans to buy a lipstick (be it any other cosmetic products that she uses). Why does she need it?  she may have various reasons to buy a lipstick like a perception that she might look good in it, want it since most woman use lipsticks, saw that in an advertisement so she responds to get it, saw a movie and was inspired from her favourite actress who looks great on lipstick so decides to get one for her, or maybe she thinks that the society has fixed using lipstick as an ideal yardstick of looking beautiful. The above are the possibilities that she would buy the lipstick. Now the...

THE "ARRIBADA"

Image
image credit @Ashika One can never imagine the secrets hidden by nature underwater. Deep-sea divers, marine experts are few among the luckiest to unravel the ascetic value of the oceans to us. The oceans of the world sustain millions of species from tiny algae to the largest mammal ‘the blue whale’. One such species which is found in the tropical regions of the oceans has its presence over 100 million years! Believed to live more than fifty years, it swims across the ocean thousands of miles with its four flipper legs and bears a protective shield (top shell) called carapace all along in its entire journey. They have olive coloured body parts and thus named as ‘The Olive Ridley’ turtles. Olive Ridley turtles are the second smallest next to the Kemp Ridley’s and the most abundant of all sea turtles found in the world. The females are larger than males. They prey on jellyfish, crustaceans and snails. The olive ridley is listed as vulnerable under the International Union for C...

Toll Free Traveller

Image
“Their bicycles caused no little astonishment on the way, and the remarks passed by the natives were almost amusing. At some of the villages the boys clustered round the machines, and where they could, caught hold of them and ran behind until they were tired out. Many enquiries were made as to the name of ‘them queer horses,’ some called them ‘whirligigs’, ‘menageries’ and ‘valparaisons’. Between Wolver Hampton and Birmingham, attempts were made to upset the riders by throwing stones.”             Above is the newspaper report about three riders who set off from Liverpool to London, a journey of three days and so more resemblant to modern motor cycle touring on March 1869. The  passion for motorcycle touring around the world started in the late 19 th century. More than a century now, motorcycle riders have grown in large numbers all around the world and Indi...

The Novel C O R O N A

  -  ZAKIR HUSSAIN.P "As humans, we like to think we're in charge of our corner of the universe.   But now and then a microscopic entity reminds us that we are not."              -Neil DeGrasse Tyson A novel virus refers to a virus not seen before. It can be a virus that is isolated from its natural reservoir or isolated as the result of spread to an animal or human host where the virus had not been identified before.

'Positivity is all what we need'

Image
                                Image credit @Ashika                      My short insight on  positive attitude  I have seen many people struggle to step forward in their life. People do not suffer since they run out of money or they pertain to a particular caste or religion. Lack of positivism is the sole reason behind almost all sufferings. We take care of our body with physical exercise so as, mental health must also be trained to gain positive attitude. This positivity has helped me support my family and friends in different ways. When you are positive you keep your surrounding in the same manner. You attract positive things more and persons with such positive attitude get attracted to you. Everybody tend to follow a certain religion, we may name it differently but the ultimate thing which gives us deep insight on wh...

“Imaginable Immortality”

Image
Immortality described as unending existence which has been proclaimed to be attained through mentally, spiritually or physically. Though the belief system of immortality has been quite common and familiar across the horizontal and vertical dimension of geographical territory and human historical timescale, there is no proof or material evidence available yet. Despite these counter arguments prevailing in the rational society, I would try my level best to convince my fellow readers about “Imaginable (Possible) Immortality” in the real world through this article.  Immortality as described above may sound more of spiritual, but in reality immortality as an end can be reached through the means, of spiritual as well as scientific. Personally, I would prefer to approach eternal through spiritual means but due to societal pressure where spirituality is attached to religion and also described as “Non-Sense”, I better start with science. YES, I BECOME RATIONAL NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

Being Indian

Image
We all have sung National Anthem. Most of us would have first started singing the anthem in our schools. Not even a day started without singing the national anthem during our school days. When I entered college I was shocked, no such activity was carried out there. The class started at eight in the morning and nothing else was so special. What I missed in my college were the morning prayers which ended up singing the national anthem which became a regular practice of my schooling. In spite of our diversities, we all stand together to sing the anthem. It makes us feel the power of ‘we’. The National Anthem was first sung in the congress session of Calcutta during 1911. So why was the anthem written by Rabindranath Tagore? Is that all the countries have an anthem so India should also have one? No, the national anthem written by Rabindranath Tagore is another expression of the unity of India. Songs and symbols that emerged during the freedom struggle serve as a constant reminde...

The Mystery of Pride

Image
Human beings are amazing creatures on earth, because of the influential nature that humans posses, we tend to impact and bring change in nature. The change sometimes is positive or negative. Billions now are threatened from a deadly disease called COVID 19 caused by a virus named ‘Corona’ and still we could control the situation following various ways like social distancing, lockdown, wearing mask etc. We feel proud of ourselves for the scientific development the human has attained so far and soon hope science to produce a vaccine for this deadly disease. We are proud of this nature of humans and with pride , we hope for the best in the coming months. What is pride? According to the Oxford dictionary, “Pride a feeling of pleasure or satisfaction that you get when you or people who are connected with you have done something well or own something that other people admire”. Overall what pride gives us is a feeling of pleasure. Pride is also a belief that one is superior to ...
