The simplest and most routine moments can give us the most happiness, and are so very important to cherish.
She lay next to him in the night, watching him sleep. The look on his face – the calm, peace and beauty – made her forget the sufferings she had endured through the day, on his behest. Although her pain wreaked havoc on her muscles and bones, she used his peace and fell into a deep sleep.
The morning rays were just trying to make their way through the thick darkened curtains when he woke up. He sat up and watched her sleep. It comforted him. He watched her with love, for he loved her the most and knew that no one loved him more than she did. He moved a couple of strands of her hair off of her face. He ran his fingers through the patterns of flowers on the blanket they shared and started humming a song.
The soft hum woke her up and her lids slowly started to flutter open. A rush of excitement ran through his body as he knew she will soon be up. His soft hum became a little louder and she opened her sleepy eyes to meet his wide eyes. A smile travelled from his heart to his mouth and into his eyes. He watched her with all the love that he had. That was the moment she knew that nothing in this world could beat the feeling of this morning. She captured it and stored it in her memory. She smiled back and gave him a long hug with a kiss on his nose.
He received the love quietly for a moment and then in a loud voice, he said in excitement, “It’s time to wake up Mamma. It’s morning. Will you play with me?”

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.
