One of the more difficult aspects about implementing changes in our life is how we deal with people. All relationships – with friends, family, colleagues or team-mates come with opinions, judgements and approval or disapproval. It’s certainly not unrealistic to seek approval and appreciation from those you know or at least, the ones who matter […]
With every 206 bones in our narcissistic bodies, as humans we are made to believe in the singular, exclusive reality of our existence, not only on the earth, but within and outside the realms of our universe. So, is our universe really unique? Are we to conclude that life, existence and all our realities began […]
Veera is a published Author (‘Endured’ and ‘#LoveBitesLifeHacks’) and Columnist; a passionate Educator and Counsellor; Poet and Philosopher… but most of all, a lover of all things literary. I really can’t say that I’ve met a single person in my lifetime who’s always had it easy. Life, for most, is not a piece of cake. […]
Veera is a published Author (‘Endured’ and ‘#LoveBitesLifeHacks’) and Columnist; a passionate Educator and Counsellor; Poet and Philosopher… but most of all, a lover of all things literary. Navroz is the Iranian New Year, celebrated by Parsis, perhaps more fervently that our Iranian brethren, much in the spirit of all celebrations that us Parsis are […]
. Ah yes! Every year March 8th is celebrated as International Woman’s Day, solely dedicated to the more or less 3.82 billion women that make up the population of the world, according to a 2019 census. By the number itself, a celebration is certainly in order, keeping in mind how female infanticides prevailed rampantly across […]
. When you lose a friendship, it’s an altogether different sort of hurt and rejection. Friends are who you share pieces and the wholeness of your life with; you comfort them as they do you. A good friend is one who shares your days and nights. Close friends are those with who we share our […]
So, it’s Valentine’s Day tomorrow… we’ll have those packs of love-crazed wolves howling at the moon, all ready to jump off cliffs, swim the deepest seas and climb the highest mountains – all in the name of love. These love junkies have you wondering where that magic and blush of first love has disappeared. While […]
Railway services have been reinstated on our Mumbai locals. And what was possibly our 9:00am-Borivali-Fast, the one to which our blue-collar Mumbaikar set his watch to, could now well be the new 12:00-noon-Chugger! As stated – ‘12:00 to 4:00 pm, train service started for all passengers’ – Mumbai slowly and cautiously inches back into its […]
These last couple of months, I’ve been spending quality time with my nephew’s, umm, or should I say niece’s dog (the ownership’s a bit hazy, but strongly debatable between the two). Safe to say then, the cute pooch that belonging to both, taught me some salient lessons about life without even trying. For all who […]
An age-old question we’ve all often asked ourselves – why do we hurt the people we love the most? It’s uncanny how we operate on various levels of inflicting and receiving hurt, with most cases defying simple logic. Our relationships are often formed over years of intimacy and trust. Yet, it’s always the closest and […]
Finding a perfect pair of jeans is honestly more difficult than finding the right guy! In your teens and 20’s, that perfect dude had to be cool, hip and completely with it. That certainly was the same for all your denims then. In your 30’s, you’re searching for durability, compatibility and trendiness, but on point […]
