THAT NIGHT.

-
I was scared. I was hurt. I was running from something. Something scary. Something that was going to hurt me. I wanted to protect myself. It was all dark around me. I was terrified. People around me were shouting on me as if i was a coward. I just wanted to escape. It was too horrifying to stay within. Tears fell off my cheeks. My eyes were red. I didn't even know from what i was running ? What was it that scared me to such an extent ? But i knew it would hurt me. And suddenly my phone rang and it kept ringing, i was able to hear it but i just couldn't wake up. I felt trapped. I just wanted to wake up and finally i woke up. I Woke up, and i realised it was a dream. I was trembling. I had fear in my eyes. I was crying. I took the phone and it was a blur, tears in my eyes didn't let me see anything. It was late at night. I didn't know what to do. I couldn't move. I couldn't speak a word for sometime. I kept thinking it was just a dream and nothing else. I tried to calm down and when i did i thought what just happened. It is believed that we dream about the things which we fear. And it was soo true. I realised that it is our dreams which sometimes tell us about our fears and warn us. For me my fear was getting hurt by any emotion. Sometimes we should trust our instincts and be careful from some things if we believe that we are going to get hurt because of them. Dreams tell us about the situations we fear to be in but sometimes also about the situations we want to be in. They are always a direction towards what we want and what we don't.

THANKS.

Women Empowerment and The Society

-
A woman has always been portrayed as a damsel in distress in almost all the Contexts in Indian cinema. It is only recently that women started playing roles in movies which were self empowered and did not need a man to get validated. Where does it end ?    This is a question people need to ask themselves when it comes to Indian women. Our society views the journey of a woman with the destination of marriage, no matter how much success she might have achieved. India got it's first female educator in 1848 AD, Savitribai Phule. Then years after that the Indian nation accepted the leadership of a female Prime Minister, then with Kalpana Chawala becoming the first female astronaut of India and Pratibha Patil as the first female President of the country, many norms were broken . Ever since then many women have made a place for them in this Patriarchal society. But we also need to remember that these are just a few women who have had a difficult journey to finally reach a place where

Those days.

 I sometimes find myself wanting to go back to the simpler times. Where Information was not one click away and people were not judged from what they added to their social media platforms, Where texting with a limited number of texts allowed had a different feeling, calls were too important to be ignored and music on the radio was all I needed. Today, I feel like Instagram is our open profile, Facebook gives out reminders of Birthdays, snapchat is the camera to our life, WhatsApp is the new and improved version of texting and there are many other things that have become a crucial part of our day to day living.  Yet somehow, the real personalities of people stay hidden.  I would really like to know how many people believe that social media is the actual reflection into someone's life ?  To get to know a person, it is essential to have a conversation. Well, atleast for me it is. I, myself enjoy social media every now and then but the encroachment of the pretend appearances into t

STRUGGLE WITH LOSS OF MEMORY

-
Imagine not knowing who you are. Not being able to recollect and recognize your own life.  If a person starts to question his own Identity and is unable to answer the basic questions that forms the basis of who he is, not knowing his name, where he comes from and not knowing the people in his family, that in itself it a scary situation. Dementia is a symptom that decreases the cognitive function of the brain and interferes with the daily routine of a person. But again it is a symptom, which might be due to many diseases. The most known disease which leads to dementia is Alzheimer’s disease. It contributes to 60-80% cases of dementia. In India, forgetfulness is deemed as a part of aging and it is true to some extent. Old age comes with a general decrease in overall heath and not just loss of memory. This becomes a reason for delayed diagnosis of a disease like Alzheimer’s. There is no cure for such a disease so far but early diagnosis can be very helpful in the management of
