Tragedy as happiness ( unknowingly )

Not everyone wishes for the same 


From my school days, till now my college days, I get excited when the government announces a holiday because of rain or floods. I even prayed for heavy rain in our districts to get a week-long holiday. But I never thought of the consequences or destruction that my prayer could cause to the people of my neighbourhood areas. I've been selfish and only thought about the benefit of my living. I can't consider that as a childish phase of life as a child would never think harm to others; a child wants everyone around them to be smiling, and a child has a pure and innocent heart. I had always seen the consequences of natural calamities through the news but never realized how the disaster would affect an individual or a community until I started to think about society when I wrote. Writing helped me to look into several things from different perspectives. After Writing blogs, I've noticed a change in perspectives about the things around me, I looked into issues closely from various points of view; in this way, I thought about natural calamities after seeing the effects that fengal cyclone has caused in our neighbourhood districts last week, I felt ashamed of my myself as I prayed numerous times for a disaster just to get a few days of holidays. It's not like there was nobody to lecture me about this but it was me who wasn't ready to listen to them. There is always something that makes us excited and happy, but do we ever think that our happiness might be somebody's sorrow, just like "Tragedy as comedy"?

The plan to get clear

  It all started with a plan of my dad telling me to visit certain places to get an idea of the routes so we planned to take a bus to Broadway it was around 2 pm on Friday after the classes got over I came to the bus stop to take a bus to broadway then within minutes there came a bus uncrowded and spacious and I got a seat near conductor so that if I had to get down in between I can tell him. It started with a calm and sunny nature, My dad instructed me not to doze off while sitting because the significant reason for me going there was to get the routes clear but there I sat near the window with heat waves passing through my skin and melodious music flowing in my ears if the breeze was an chill breeze then I might fall asleep as soon as I took the ticket. After Kotturpuram, I got confused as the routes looked similar, and it was one way, so I couldn't memorize the routes even while I going back. I looked kinda dull but the next stopping after presidency college brought a smile to m...

SLEEP

So let me start the blog with a valid question, How many hours will you spend for sleeping in a day?..... My sleeping hours got reduced in the past 3 months I would sleep for 5 hours a day whereas a human has to sleep at least for 8 hours is the doctor's prescription. But you guys, never think of me as a spirited or bustling person those words never suit me. Sleep is a wonderful activity for active beings, by sleeping your anger can go down, and can be relieved from unwanted stress and overthinking, and it will even boost your mental energy. Moreover, you can escape from reality for a while, which means when you wake up from sleep you'll have the confidence to encounter and conquer the battle with which you have been struggling for days. And I have heard people saying those who sleep a lot are sluggish humans, Does it even make any sense?.... Everyone knows how important sleep is, in an individual's life. After a long tiring day even if I get a 10-minute nap that would be s...

The contrast between Little Women and Pride and Prejudice  The novel Little Women by Louisa May Alcott was set during the American Civil War around the 1860s. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen was set around 1811. Both novels present the social expectations of women, love between classes, the unbreakable bond between sisters, family, struggles, and social norms...these were common in both novels but appear different according to their society. Little Women revolves around the life of the March family, where Mr & Mrs March is very concerned about their children but never forces them to do anything. They never conclude any situation with society's norms, but they did care about their children's concerns regarding that particular opinion. Mrs. March supports Jo in her decision to confess to Laurie as her mother knows that Jo has pure love towards Laurie, but they don't know that he is already engaged to her younger sister. Mrs. March also supports and encourages Jo for he...
