Strength may also look like, slight smiles on days when lips refuse to curl. Tiny attempts, while toes refuse to budge. Lazy mornings and laidback evenings, reaching out for bits of joy, and tiny pleasures.
Strength may also look like
Slight smiles on days
When lips refuse to curl.
Tiny attempts
While toes refuse to budge.
Lazy mornings and laidback evenings
Reaching out for bits of joy
And tiny pleasures.
Opening our soft lump of mind
To different point of views,
To listen without prejudices.
For the miles between
The mountain of brains
And ocean of hearts
Offer tons of perspectives.
Burying that ounce of pride
Forgiving while you hear no apologies
Welcoming with giant hearts
Trying with a heap of hopes.
Giving second chances quietly
Loving without eying returns
Caring in silence while praising loud.
Wearing that change of attitude
For difference of opinion
Exists for a reason.
Seeing beyond clothes and shoes
For common sense weighs
More than fashion sense.

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.
