Humans have acted as a catapult in the process of climate change that now all we can hear are red sirens. For the past few years now, nature has been alarming us with wildfires, melting glaciers, rising sea level, extended drought, the uneven rise of temperature, that, all is not well. And all we have done is acted towards it at snail's pace. Economies have but forth many strategies and framework to deal with this issue but as for now a lot it is in words only.  All thanks to the coming in the unity of 20 million Americans against the ignorance of environmental issue on the April 22 of 1970 that led to the formation of Earth day. Recognising it as a global issue that requires an immediate response. 2020 marked the 50th anniversary of Earth Day and the theme for this year was "Climate Action".  We need to recall that Climate change didn't happen in a snap, but it was years of subtle and usually condoned problems that have brought us to this cusp. It now stands--more pr...

To debar the second world war (1939-45), President of USA, Woodrow Wilson, initiated the League of Nation in 1920. But it failed in averting the war and reigning a kingdom of peace. After 20 years of its establishment, war broke out which led to mass killing and downfall of economies. It was also this time when America attempted a genocidal attack on Hiroshima, Japan by dropping two atom bombs which caused casualties beyond imagination. Peace and war is an endless interdependent cycle that must go on. One can't imagine without considering the other. It was the wantonness and terror of WW2 that compelled nations to rethink a method of global peace.  A consentaneous viewpoint of the nation to set up a new international organization instead of reviving the League of Nations. It was on June 26th, 1945 in San Francisco where leaders of 59 nations came together and unanimously signed the charter of United Nations (UN). This organization came into effect on October 24th of the same year. ...

The Why of Tension - It was only back in 1977 when Hong Kong was freed from the British rule and handed back to China under the condition of "one country, two systems". This made Hong Kong a 'mini self-governed Constitution' for the next 50 years. Though there is nothing known regarding what will happen after 50 years. The basic law granted certain freedoms such as freedom of assembly and speech, some other Democratic rights and an independent judiciary - all that which was not enjoyed by people who belonged to the mainland of China. In the same agreement, Hong Kong was also asked to form its own national security law - but nothing was done. An hour before the celebration of 23rd anniversary of freedom from British Government, National Security law came into effect.This step was taken by China to set a legal framework for the Hong Kongers in concern with the problems they created for Chinese authorities.  This law criminalises the following things -  • terrorism - usi...

Depression can be debilitating and is very different from just feeling unhappy. Usually, there is a reason for unhappiness such as being rejected or not getting the job you wanted. Depression is a pervasive feeling. It’s almost as if you are in a black tunnel with no light. Hope disappears and the things you used to find enjoyable become a chore. Even winning the lottery would not snap someone out of depression and it is never a good idea to tell someone who is depressed to sort themselves out and pull themselves together. Unfortunately, it isn’t that simple, but there are ways to alleviate the symptoms of depression. 1. Practice Mindfulness A depressed mind tends to mull over all that is wrong and worries unnecessarily about all the negative possibilities that may emerge in the future. This negative thought cycle reinforces misery and is not helpful in managing to overcome depression. Mindfulness involves focusing on the present moment and is a skill that needs to be practiced.

As witnessed today with hundreds of thousands of people coming together with no fear, with less shame and more love, Pride when seen in hindsight was not always the same. It was an act of celebrating the lives of those who were ostracised by the so-called society, but more importantly, it was an act of togetherness for a rebellion. When pressed the reverse button and watched from the beginning, Pride was not as glittery, as vibrant, as spirited and as safe as it is now. With global pandemic striking the world at its Achilles Heel and leading to the disruption of lives, it was made sure that Pride 'still got celebrated'. Even though it's hard to find hope during these times, we must recall that we had been here together even before, that Pride was a movement against inequity and that granting rights to few and snatching illicitly from others is not what one must call equality.  Together We Are War (The Beginning) -  On the early morning of 28th June 1969, eight police office...

Have you ever looked at a sleeping baby? Or maybe your partner? How calm, peaceful and composed they look. No heavy breaths, poker face and so relaxed. But are we really so calm while sleeping?  Science says that during sleep our metabolism rate increases and we burn more calories. Yes, I mean it. But it doesn't mean that sleeping for hours will help you in losing weight. If you sleep more than necessary the effect reverses. This is just an example of what happens while we sleep.  The human body is industrious. It works incessantly to keep us alive. Even when we say we are relaxed we actually aren't. Those are just a few hormones playing with us. A proper sleep, as we all know is very essential. We also probably know the side effects of not taking proper rest. Stress, exhaustion, dizziness, burning of eyes and whatnot. But what happens when you are asleep?  What goes in your head? How your body functions? Honestly, even researchers can not tell you a lot about that. But h...

रिश्ता चाहे कोई भी हो उसमें प्यार और विश्वास के साथ टकराव का तड़का जरूर होता है कहा तो यह भी जाता है कि जहां टकराव जादा होता है वहां प्यार उससे भी जादा होता है।पर कभी-कभी ये प्यारी नोक- झोंक कब छोटी-छोटी बहसों में बदल जाती हैं पता भी नहीं चलता और यहीं छोटी-छोटी बहसें बड़ी-बड़ी बहसों में तब्दील हो जाती है और रिश्तों के बीच का प्यार,विश्वास कहीं छिप-सा जाता है।आपको ख़ुद पता नहीं चलता कि हो क्या रहा है सही-गलत की उलझन में ये बहसें आपकी लाइफ का हिस्सा बनने लगती हैं। एक टाइम तक ये सुलझती भी रहती है पर जब उलझती है तो फ़िर आपके रिश्ते के अस्तित्व तक को हिलाने की हिम्मत रखती हैं। ऐसा होता क्यों है.दरसअल जितनी स्पीड से हमारा मस्तिष्क पॉजिटिविटी को अपनाता है उससे कई तेज़ी से नेगेटिविटी की ओर आकर्षित होता  हैं। पर इन बहसों से बचना उतना भी मुश्किल नहीं जितना हमें लगता है.ऐसी परिस्थितियों से आसानी से निकला या बचा जा सकता हैं।आईएं जानते है कैसे? हर किसी का अपना एक तरीका होता है वो चाहता है वो उसी स्टाइल से अपनी लाइफ जिए.पर ये बात जितनी सच है कि..हम अकेले आते है और अकेले ही जाते है ....तो इस बात ...
