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.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 might have had a box office collection of 260 crores INR and entertained Indian audiences, but it's full of problematic stereotypes.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 starts with a scene in which the protagonist, Ruhaan (played by Kartik Aaryan) finds an abandoned pink suitcase in a moving cable car and thinks there is a bomb inside it.
Just then, he sees an unknown person (Kiara Advani) wave and gesture at him to convey that the suitcase is theirs. Ruhaan, with the widest possible smile, says, “Bag main bomb nahi hai, bomb ka bag hai,” (There isn’t a bomb in the bag, the bag belongs to a bomb).
Who even writes such dialogues in 2022?
Be it a working or a homemaker mother, every parent needs a support system to be able to manage their children, housework, and mental health.
Let me at the outset clarify that when I mention ‘work’ here, it includes ANY work. So, it could be the work at home done by a homemaker parent or it could be work in a professional/entrepreneurial environment.
Either way, every parent struggles to find that fine balance between ‘work’ and ‘parenting’, especially with younger kids who still need high emotional and physical support from their caretakers. And not just any balance, but more importantly, balance that lets them keep their own sanity intact!
