A new low in advertisements @fiitjee . You are posting the picture of a child saying that she performed badly because she left your institute! I have blurred the picture because I don't believe in this disgusting way of claiming your superiority by belittling a girl child.

We talk about parents putting pressure on kids for IIT JEE, but what about this manner of advertising where you shame a student for not performing? And claiming superiority by claiming that she would have performed had she been in your institute? Shameful @fiitjee

A positive step forward is being there for someone who needs to speak, but along the way, let's start developing the virtue of being good listeners. A sensitive, non-judgemental heart that listens, rather than the intelligent, logical mind that tells.

Looking at the oft-repeated narrative over class 12 marksheets - which goes like 'see I scored average/low but see today I'm successful'. Is it a self-defeating argument? Today I'm accepted, happy and intrinsically a good human being, despite my marksheet. Can we say this?

Are we defined more by our unmet goals/desires/dreams than the ones that actualise? No generalisation, but it's a question springing from observation. Do the actualised ones become the stepping stones of the hierarchy of dreams - forgotten and stepped because now they're ours?

Grief is so tangible that you can literally pick it up in your hands and not know what to do with it. Grief sits so heavy in your chest you feel you won't be able to breathe. Grief doesn't tell you how or why or when, but it's there when it's there. The ache of grief - terrible.

Simple 'emotions' : getting half a Friday off and listening to 90s hits, nostalgia - the kind that creates a knot in the pit of the stomach, reminiscent of summer afternoons after school - sunlight scorching through the windows but summery curtains that sway with the music.
