Feel the power of silence when it unfolds your thoughts, uncreases your life, and makes you feel good about yourself.
The tinnitus of silence
Played a cacophony of its own
Or was it a quietude of a different kind.
When my heart opened
To the purity of gratification
All the insatiable desires
Died silently.
Drenching my core in serenity
Screaming like an echo
Reverberating from deep inside.
Stirring goosebumps to all my sides
Silence is not silent
She makes the most noise.
She spoke to me
In language I already knew
Of astral lineage
musical and inviting
Hauling me to a bygone past
Overpoweringly scintillating.
Practise silence to meet your own self
For a slow burial of your own vices.
Cease to be a source of noise for once,
Silence your speech~desires~ego
The judgements~habits~thoughts.
Before the curtains fall on you
And you meet her once again
Acquaint yourself with her.
She makes the most noise
And yet, she is beautiful.

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.
