The Divine Crisp Pages

Imagine! Walking into a house and not a single book comes to your sight. What impression will you develop about the family or the person residing in that house? As technology advances, the most crucial question arising in our minds today is " CAN TECHNOLOGY REPLACE THE ORIGINALITY OF BOOKS? "

The answer to this is "NO". Reading is an inexpensive medium of entertainment and relaxation eradicating monotony. However, in terms of entertainment, technology seems to have surpassed books but at the cost of our health. Technology has laid off negative health effects such as eye-sight and obesity problems. Books are a permanent source of education and knowledge. They help to improve our concentration, further enhancing our creativity.

Can you imagine what our world would be without books? Books are the building blocks of a person's life. They help us to create a mutual bond with the author and take us to a wide, imaginative world of adventure, suspense, emotions and thrill. Books are often described as a reliable source of information. However, technology is unreliable and can lead to misguidance. Also, young minds tend to misuse technology and try to fulfill evil purposes. Books also tend to improve our focus and concentration.

From the above points, we can conclude that books can never be replaced or substituted by technology, as the joy of reading from crisp, printed pages is inexplicable

Sharing love

Sharing love. 

Love and experiences are two aspects of life which I feel can be shared with the world in the most innovative and creative of ways.  Love is beautiful and sublime and is surely something which our world needs  the most right now! 

Unfortunately, instead  of spreading unconditional love, we all are deeply engaged in spreading immense hatred. 

Millions of people die every day and not even a tear comes out of our eyes. Have we become that hard- hearted? Don't we have feelings? Just imagine yourself in their place for once and you will realize all what they have gone through- the deep pain and agony they have experienced.  How all their smiles turn into sadness in just a second? Who in this world gave us a license to be so ruthless? Why can't we lend them a helping hand ? Why are we so scared to approach the victims? Why do we keep our thoughts  confined to ourselves ? 

Even the most formidable of people do not have an answer to these questions.  It's so disheartening to learn the fact that our world is not a safe place to live anymore. We have ongoing violence in every part of this world . And the worst part is that we are doing nothing about it but sitting still and calm in the corner of our houses.  Why does our humanity tend to go ebb and flow as time passes ?

We all need love in our life. If an incident occurred in country 'x', then everyone's heart should shiver and pain.  We need to stop thinking that we are the residents of a particular country but we need to adopt the fact that we, humans, are the residents of the world and it's our responsibility to love each and everything in this world. We need to stop being vulnerable to such abrupt and soul- searing  incidents. 

Sometimes, my heart literally feels asphyxiated when  I go through the news channels. There was a time when all the news was positive-  there was love ! But now, there is nothing but fear and revulsion.  

It's my earnest request to all of you reading- please spread love and do not promote hatred in any way. Love earns us respect and makes us a better person. But hatred, kills our humanity and does nothing else . So stop hating and share the love .

 

Peace and love.

School life !

School life! 

Hey everyone ! :)

Well , today my post will focus on the kids of my age and the rest of the teens..  

When we are small, our parents wait for the day they will get to see us in our school uniforms with a small bag pack on our tiny shoulders - almost ready to take on a new world ! 

I still remember, on the first day of school, I was so damn petrified and cried so harshly that I could hardly breath lol ! When my mum dropped me to my class, I couldn't move at all, I was absolutely dumbfounded by the completely different atmosphere. My teacher held my hands but I couldn't decide whether to trust her or not.  There were so many things going on in my brain and I grasped  my mum's  dress tightly.  But towards the end I had to leave! 

Soon , many days passed by and I was completely fascinated by my school environment and began to deeply enjoy this new experience. The first thing I learnt was to make new friends . However at  that time I did not know that these friends would imprint their names in my heart for ever.

Years passed by! From a naive child, I had now become a mature adolescent. On the day of my 13th birthday, I became completely enthralled as I was soon about to enter into a new phase in life- my teens! I thought everything in my life will drastically change  but surprisingly nothing different happened. School was the same. I was the same old boring me. I was actually kind of disappointed.  

But the fact of life is that everything had changed! It's just that I couldn't realize it at that particular point. Many trivial things were incomprehensible to me..  I suddenly began to notice a change in my friends and my class mates' behavior. They had suddenly become so mature.  Some of them talked about stuff I didn't even seem to understand.  My mind wasn't completely set. 

I've realized that school was my first step towards a new life. It was my getaway to the world. It taught me so many new things. I was challenged at every step and most importantly I learnt how to overcome that challenge with focus teamed with determination. It provided me with a gratifying and a compelling environment. School taught me the value of team work. School did not only educate me about science, Maths and other such subjects but also educated me about the different ways of living life. 

Most importantly school gave me the most wonderful gift of my life time - friends , who will be my companions for ever. 

Our teachers who are our educators taught us about the good and bad aspects  in life and now it was completely upon us to decide which path to take - the good path or the bad path. 

When I had just entered tenth grade, I felt so old. But then , isn't this the basic rule of our world- growing up?

We all faced hardships, stress, pressures, love, joys and so many other such emotions at school.  These  emotions helped us to evolve in life. These swing of emotions taught  us so many heart-warming lessons.  At every step of life, we get to learn something new and different.
 

At school we can share our thoughts with our friends  because we know that they won't judge as.  We know they are at the same phase of life as we are, so we sort of share similar experiences.
 

Through out these years, I've realized that school has become a wonderful and a significant part of my life which I will never be able to erase from my heart
.

School is not only an educational institution for me but the place where my heart belongs. It made me stronger and greatly enhanced my confidence.  More than that, it made me a better and a smarter human being.

 

Thankyou!
