The Brave One

-

After a long time, yesterday, I was sitting in my balcony staring at the beauty of nature. I saw a little bird nest. In the nest, there were two little nestlings (one or a half weeks old) with a parent.

Out of curiosity, I started imagining. I asked the bird (parent of the nestlings) "It must be challenging going out, looking for food when there are so many predators out there looking for you."

"Yes, it is. But I have these two little lives depending on me." Said the bird.

"You seem to be a brave one. How was your childhood?" I asked.

"I don't know if I am the brave one but I am sure that I am the lucky one. I had a brother who died saving me when a kite attached our nest. We used to have a nest on Azadirachta indica (neem tree) and our flock (group of birds) used to sing a song of bravery. Now I sing this song for my little ones."

Brave are we who do not fear to live. We live, we fly, we sing, we die. Brave are we who do not fear to live, We live, we fly, we sing, we die.

Why should I fear from the one who is bigger? Look at my courage it is flowing like a river. Why should I fear to open my wings? This is the song of the brave and I am the one who is going to sing...

My Journey to the Treasure

  In this blog, I am going to share my experience of the journey I had in finding myself and how I went through madness to find me. As I grew up, the meaning of life for me started unfolding, the finding begins when I entered my teenage years, I can remember that I use to admire people who have that charismatic personality. And I always wanted to become someone who is loud and expressive. In short, I wanted myself to become someone that I know I’m not. There were times when I was so upset about my life due to this reason only that I was stuck at an Idea of success that was not aligning with me. Due to this, I felt lost, disconnected, and hopeless about myself. I couldn't even tell anyone around me how I was feeling because there was something else that I was holding. I thought people will judge me and all these self-doubts were drowning me in a void. When I look back at the pages which are holding my past self in my diaries, It feels like - wow I have changed a lot in these past fe

My First visit to Tis Hazari District Court

Visiting the court for the first time Due to our busy schedules, my friend and I were going to try to make it to the court, but we never had time. We had the opportunity to visit the court today because our classes were canceled. Since it was the most suitable option, we took the metro from our college. After reaching the place but before evening entering the first frisk checkpoint, we encountered a Tout (kind of a broker for advocates) who said "Kahan jana hai?" (Where do you want to go?). I didn't know who he was but my friend told me, there are a lot of people like him who will ask the same question. At the second checkpoint also, there was another man asking the same. We entered the premises after a quick frisk check, and it was busy inside. We simply roamed the area for a while. The court proceedings were happening in small rooms adjoining to the chambers of those Judges who were presiding over the cases. My friend then asked for permission from the court martial to

Universe in our head

 The Universe in our head Often when we start to think about the origin of everything, the origin of the universe, it just makes us feel empty and clueless because questions like these are still missing their answers in modern science. Various theories of the past and people's beliefs have different stories of the creation of the universe. When we study space we end up at "where does the universe end?" Like planets make a solar system, solar systems create a galaxy, and a group of galaxies is called the universe. What is thereafter the universe and what is its length, depth, and volume? Is it infinite or is there something bigger after the universe ends? I would like you to imagine the vastness of your mind. What do you see when you look inside your thinking tank? do you see a finite space or is it enormous enough that feels like a universe? Where does a thought go when we don't believe it? Where does a thought come from? Do we create our thoughts or do we experience
