5 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Be Insistently Whining About Your Life All The Time


So I recently found one of my friends struggling with the most ubiquitous question of all – Give Me a Reason to Love My Life. I gave her five:

 1. Because not matter how bouncy your life is or how jeopardized your career has become, you do not have to struggle to bring your life back on track while facing the elitist Indian society with a baffled mind, as those UNFORTUNATE raped women have to do after having such ungodly, eerie experience. Yes Your Life Is Amazing!

 2. Because the dawn does not find you sprawling like corpses around a cramped station or in an abandoned house as it does daily, to many people of Syria – trying to avoid any sight of helicopters and army-jets that are ready to drop their first bomb of the day. Yes Your Life Is Amazing!

 3. Because you aren’t one of those unfortunate bunch who are living at the other side of the orange fence – the fence that has been built to keep sickness at bay – the fence that divides The Healthy People from those who are counting their last few days suffered from deadly Ebola virus, listening to BBC Africa on their Radio devices to find out how far science has reached in finding a cure for them. Yes Your Life Is Amazing! 

 4. Because you are not among those several thousand Indians, who have lost their regular 
dwelling and much more than that whose damage is irreparable – in the recent catastrophe that has hit Kashmir. Yes Your Life Is Amazing!

 5. Because those entire race draining talks that make most of the news in Ferguson and the rest of the world today, have nothing to do with you. You do not have to impatiently wait for the world to come up with a solution that exerts a powerful jackass ray of hope for the irreparable hearts of Black Community in North America. You don’t live in the fear of taking a bullet in the head for committing every insignificant unjust act one can think of. Yes Your Life Is Amazing!

 Just to play it cool, I concluded by saying “Life Is a Bitch”. She got impressed. But the conversation taught the rational part of my brain a great life-lesson. We nag about things that don’t and shouldn’t matter. Try to look at the big picture and then only you would be able to see that your life is perfect – in its own way. It’s all about perspective.

7 Reasons Why We Cherish Our Childhood More Than The Kind Of Life We Have Today

So I have been on this earth nearly 3 decades now. Being in a city like Delhi where there are buildings that measure their age by millennia, helps put that brief blink of the eye into perspective. We all have left several years of our lives trying to learn things, building our materialistic world – in our own way. We have stumbled, and we learned – with time. Dedicated to those sweet childhood memories which made us who we are today, here are ten facts why our childhood was so much fun: 1.  Back then we used to play for hours with those few toys that our parents had bought for us.  For girls, making up their Barbie dolls and setting up their virtual houses used to be the best play. And now we have everything. A personal TV set, a laptop to browse whatever we want, and maybe an Xbox as well, but where is that thrill. 2.  When we used to walk by the side of our father holding his hand and sometimes he suddenly carry us on his shoulder overwhelmed by his fatherly love.
