The Illusion of True Bonds: Unmasking Selfishness in Human Relationships

Image
[SOURCE:GOOGLE] "All that glitters is not gold"  I n a world where appearances often deceive and motives remain hidden, human relationships have become a complex web of emotions and motives. While some bonds are genuinely based on love and care, many others are just a mirage of affection, driven by selfish reasons. A passage from a famous poem by the progressive and humanist poet Professor Ramdhari Singh Dinkar, who inspired and promoted nationalism in the years before independence, suddenly came to mind as I was reflecting on and realizing some painful past events in my life. His poetry was first introduced to me in my high school's Hindi textbook, which reads: साँई सब संसार में , मतलब का व्यवहार।   जब लग पैसा गाँठ में , तब लग ताको यार ||   तब लग ताको यार , यार संग ही संग डोले।   पैसा रहे न पास , यार मुख से नहिं बोले ॥   कह ' गिरिधर कविराय ' जगत यदि लेखा भाई।   करत बेगरजी प्रीति , यार बिरला कोई साँई॥ This implies Everyone in the world tal...

Safe Touch , Unsafe Touch

Image
  We hear a lot about child abuse and molestation these days. We must begin educating young children about "Safe Touch, Unsafe Touch" to limit further harm. Targets are often very young children, between 6 and 7 years old. They lack the maturity to distinguish between right and wrong.  Most parents do not want to broach the subject because it is still a delicate one for them to broach with their kids. Schools are no different in this regard. We occasionally struggle to stand up and address delicate subjects. We all have a good understanding of several safety regulations. We quickly think of wearing a helmet while operating a vehicle as one example. Avoid using a phone while driving  utilizing a zebra crossing to cross the road, etc. However, we know very little about how to safeguard our bodies. since revealing information about bodies is still viewed as taboo.  Even though our nation, India, has significantly developed and many urban dwellers and a small number ...

Change is the rule of nature.

  Stephen Chbosky said it perfectly in his book  "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" : "Things change. And friends leave. Life doesn’t stop for anybody; it will not stop for you either." People move on; they change; they let go; they grow; and eventually, they forget and just move on. No one is  going to be with you forever because life does not stop for anybody. A passage from the Bhagwat Geeta by Lord Krishna says:                     परिवर्तन संसार का नियम है | which signifies "Change is the rule of nature" . In simple terms, change can be defined as an effect that is strong enough to alter or change someone's life or way of living. We frequently become overly attached to someone to the point that we are eventually overly influenced by either their presence or absence. As humans, we require comfort constantly, whether from a person or a place. We become dependent and prone to developing habits when certain people a...

Women V/s Women

                 Having the right circle of women around is honestly the biggest upgrade. Instead of having the actual backing of our gender, which is "WOMEN," we are frequently seen demanding or looking for other gender or legislation to empower us. It is an even greater sort of betrayal when women fail to support one another than when males do. When we suppress our insecurities, it might result in hostility against other people. Antagonism is rarely directed in a healthy or good way.  Many of the women I watch avoid talking to one another because they think that doing so will eventually lift the veil because "the more they would share things, the more other women will be ahead of them." Yet sharing by women can be advantageous whether it involves money or anything else. "Thought exchange and sharing among women will be beneficial for all of us." A friend is someone we can admire, appreciate, cherish, and learn from if she is competent ...
