Single, Not Left Behind: How to Embrace Your Own Timeline

Do you ever scroll through social media and feel like everyone around you is in a relationship, while you’re still single? That creeping sense of being “behind” is surprisingly common , but here’s the truth: being single is not a deficit. It’s a unique, valuable phase of life that gives you space to grow, explore, and understand yourself. Here’s how to stop feeling left behind and start truly embracing your single life. 1. Reframe What “Left Behind” Really Means Feeling left behind usually comes from comparison, not reality. Life is not a race, and people’s timelines differ. Some marry early and struggle; others stay single longer and flourish emotionally, creatively, and personally. Being single is not “behind”—it’s a stage full of opportunities. 2. See Singlehood as a Choice, Not a Lack Instead of thinking, “I’m missing out,” try thinking, “I have time to grow, explore, and prepare for the right connection.” Single life gives you the freedom to: Deepen hobbies and passions Strengthen...

When Diwali Feels Different: Observations of a Quiet Celebration

The streets are alive with lights, laughter, and the hum of celebration. Shops display colorful decorations, families rush to buy sweets, and firecrackers echo in the distance. I walk past it all, noticing everything, but feeling strangely apart from it. I see neighbors exchanging gifts, friends laughing over dinner, and children running around with sparklers. I want to join in, to feel that excitement — but my own reality reminds me to step back. My finances aren’t great this year, and the thought of gifts, parties, or new clothes brings more anxiety than joy. For a long time, I thought avoiding people would protect me from judgment. But solitude brings its own weight. Watching everyone else celebrate reminds me of what I can’t participate in, and that sting is hard to ignore. Advice like “don’t take it personally” feels hollow. Of course I feel excluded — that’s human. I realize that coping doesn’t mean pretending I’m fine. It means noticing my feelings and being gentle with myself. ...

The Power of Online Farming

Image
In recent times, the spread of sensational military claims on social media has become a strategic tool in international conflicts. For instance, a claim recently circulated online that six Indian jets were shot down—a statement that remains unverified but has rapidly gained attention. This phenomenon is more than mere rumor—it often reflects a coordinated information operation, sometimes referred to as online farming. Disclaimer: This blog analyzes publicly available information and media patterns. It does not confirm the validity of any specific military claims. What Is Online Farming? Online farming is the coordinated creation and amplification of content across digital platforms to influence public perception. Unlike organic viral trends, these campaigns are carefully designed to maximize visibility, affect sentiment, and shape narratives (Wardle & Derakhshan, 2017). Common techniques include: Using fake or automated accounts (bots) to post and share content. Repetition of ident...

Why Murti-puja (Idol Worship) in Hinduism Is Misunderstood

 For centuries, Hinduism has been misrepresented as a “false religion” because of idol worship. Today, YouTube and social media are full of videos claiming that bowing before murtis is primitive or wrong. But the truth is: Murti-pūjā is not blind superstition — it is a deeply philosophical and spiritual practice. Let’s clear the air. 1. Worshiping God, Not Stone One of the biggest misunderstandings is the idea that Hindus worship stone or metal statues. In reality, the murti is a symbol — a sacred form used to represent the divine. Just as a national flag is respected not for the cloth but for what it stands for, Hindus respect murtis as living symbols of God’s presence. 2. The Human Mind Needs Form The divine is infinite, formless, beyond imagination. But the human mind often struggles with abstraction. A murti makes the infinite accessible — it gives form to the formless so devotees can focus their thoughts, emotions, and devotion. Think of it like learning. A child first learns ...

The Bicycle I Left in the Monsoon

As a child, I loved the rains. The first drops meant freedom—the chance to run outside barefoot, splash in puddles, and most of all, ride my bicycle through the empty streets. The rain didn’t slow me down; it made the world feel alive. Every drop that hit my skin felt like laughter from the sky, and every puddle was an adventure waiting to happen. But now, when the monsoon arrives, the excitement doesn’t come with it. Instead, I find myself retreating indoors, watching the rain from behind a window. My bicycle waits quietly in the corner, and I hesitate to ride it out. What if the roads are too slippery? What if I fall? What if the joy I’m searching for doesn’t come back? The same rain that once pulled me out into the world now feels like a weight keeping me inside. As children, we live less in fear of consequences. The rain was just rain—something to enjoy, not something to measure against risks. As adults, we carry a sharper awareness. We think of dangers, responsibilities, and every...

How Artificial Intelligence Is Becoming a Part of Our Daily Lives

When people hear “artificial intelligence” or AI, they often imagine futuristic robots or complex systems used by big tech companies. But the truth is, AI is already quietly woven into our everyday routines — often without us even realizing it. As someone exploring technology and creativity for the first time, I’ve been surprised to see how often AI shows up in small but impactful ways. In this article, I’ll share how AI is blending into how we live, work, and even express ourselves creatively. AI in Our Smartphones One of the easiest places to spot AI is in your phone. Face unlock uses facial recognition, which is powered by AI. When you start typing a message and your phone suggests the next word — that’s predictive AI in action. Voice assistants like Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant can answer questions, set reminders, or play your favorite music — all thanks to artificial intelligence. These features often go unnoticed, but they help us save time and stay organized. AI in Social Me...
