It is very difficult to find a person to have a road map  of his own life, further it is very uncommon for one to have a purpose in life, on top of all these it is extraordinary for a person to have a vision for the society. Bharathi was a person who was considered eccentric during his time, everyone assumed him to be crazy, everyone tagged him to be outrageous, still he had only one thing in mind, his vision.  He was not only influencing people through his poems but also his works were elegant with unconventional language. He was reason behind the new age style in Tamil Language that used to be classical and required a niche eye to understand them. He was the first one to voice his concern for women, mainly because he had the flair for women which is very uncommon during his time.  He talked about the united and independent economy of India, he talked about women’s welfare, he talked about fairness and his writings clearly exhibit his passion to be fearless, his pass...

A cultural problem

Image
The idea of separate life/location for youngsters, especially after marriage, from parents is actually justified. Unlike old days, now youngsters are in a need to perform independently in order to be successful in their career. They need a freedom of mind, with due apologies presence of parents in the same house actually interferes with the freedom of mind for the young generation. This is mainly because of generation difference and youngsters are forced to be conscious about their parents. Parents are generally outdated with their expectations/behavior and our adjustments to them may not be relevant to our times. This is particularly true if one decides to spend his/her entire lifetime with parents. Although it is our responsibility to spend time with them but in reality spending time with them cannot be considered quality time with respect to the youngsters' prospects or growth in present times. Youngsters will always strive to stick to the culture as much as possible and be resp...

Paradox

Image
For system to be successful, people should focus only on their own passion and satisfaction. Isn't it a selfish life without much thought and care about others? Well it's a paradox. If someone focus only on his self-satisfaction, humans by nature, will be helping others to satisfy oneself. Is it always the case? Yes it is always the case! A simple rule. Everyone should take care of oneself for his betterment alone. If everyone apply this rule society will be safe. Then why is that everyone is so selfish? because the present system is not suitable to satisfy oneself, everyone is struggling for their own survival, no one has time for his own desire/passion/satisfaction. Do you mean no one has no time to exercise his own desire? Yes. All the brouhaha about society happening all over the society is just an illusion and a false impression, it is a cry of everyone as an outcome of unfulfilled life. Also whoever is very selfish in life is not exactly selfish, it is the because of ...

Raising Tomorrow's Leaders: A Modern Approach to Parenting

Image
Parenting In today's rapidly evolving world, traditional parenting approaches may inadvertently hinder a child's potential for leadership and success. To nurture a child into a future leader, parents need to adopt a conscious and empowering approach that fosters independence, decision-making skills, and resilience. Empowering, Not Directing Instead of dictating every step, encourage your child to make their own choices and learn from their experiences. Minimize interference and allow them the freedom to explore, even if it means encountering setbacks. When failures occur, offer encouragement and guidance rather than criticism or excessive advice. Focus on motivating them to learn from their mistakes and strive for improvement. Guiding, Not Controlling Rather than imposing restrictions, steer your child towards better choices by highlighting the positive alternatives. Instead of saying, "You should not do this," rephrase it as, "You can do that, which is better....

Chase of the moment.

Chase of the moment. With her legs tied, she tried to get near the water jar, lifting it slowly so that no one could hear her. As she was drinking, there was a sudden thudding sound of the doors opening. A fully armored man with a large sword on his hip approached her. Struggling to get past her fierce look, he untied her legs and dragged her to the main hall. "Did she say anything?" asked the rebel chieftain. "No! Not a word," replied the armored man. Angrily, the chieftain approached her face. "You will pay for your insolence, you dirty little pigs! You all will die at my hands! I will crush them to dust!" She waited silently for him to finish his words, then quickly kicked him in the groin. As he crouched back in pain, she shouted, "Only in your dreams, you little bunch of cowards!"   "Hang her tomorrow! I need to see that for myself!" the chieftain shouted, still holding himself in pain.   That night was silent. With distant h...
