Everything we do these days is fodder for the social media mill. When was the last time you just were? A poignant look at this new reality.
Everything we do is pictured for want of likes and tweets the comments we read and write with mock pride and digital treats.
Nothing in our mind stays opinions written about all under the sun two minute fame is the goal second-hand intelligence in the long run.
An excess of useless forwards spreading menace and panic didactic quotes are the new black our shallow e-jokes so unromantic.
We touch phones more than people deadly lure of the blue light our texts are higher than real talks dignified privacy not in sight.
Do you remember the last time you counted the raindrops? you ran on the sun drenched grass? you played scrabble and checkers? you wrote a letter with a pen? you were bored?
Unashamed life of simplicity found in those joyful days of yore except in matters of love
Less is definitely more Less is more.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
