Unanticipated Scar.. #SupportSangitaMagar

"Scars show toughness: that you've been through it, and you're still standing" as quoted by Theo Rossi, some scars do speak stories of bravery. Wounded scars from battlefield, hardships, struggle, etc. indeed show courage and endurance. But how about those unanticipated scars that you neither wanted nor saw it coming? The ones that innocent victim like Sangita has to live for the rest of her life from an unexpected acid attack? The scars reminding her of bravery that she didn't even deserve or have to show in the first place. I really feel bad for that young girl and a couple of her friends who had to go through this horrific incident. It's surprising to see how some people think it is okay to play with somebody's life like that. I mean what was he thinking? I am not sure what the story/reason is behind this act. There could be millions of either trivial or big reasons behind it; nevertheless, no action in the world deserves such brutal and inhuman crim

Letter from Medical Marijuana: (A Metaphor)

Dear Master, The day you set me on your bed stand, I knew you were not one of those people who would smoke me up for the wrong reasons. Medical Marijuana, as they have entitled - I have bigger purposes in life. I help the ones in need - those whose pain is greater than the death itself. And I was certain you knew it. For the obvious reason: instead of smoking me up, you chose to set me on your bed stand. You have always been a healthy person. Hence, I was never a necessity in your life. I have observed that all along. We have seen places together - places that you actually enjoy visiting every now and then; like the clubs or house parties. I enjoy those places as much as you do. We had that in common.  Yet, as always, you never took a puff of me. I was never a bag full of temptation for you. You respected my existence and protected me whenever possible. There were times when parts of me got stuck in the wrong hands. Yet somehow, like an oasis in a desert, I found my way back

V-day tribute to the side kick!

With Valentine's Day being just around the corner, how could I miss the opportunity to celebrate love? Love is beautiful indeed. With so much love raining in every street and store around the globe, it would be harsh to post a rant against love. Not saying that I want to anyway! ;) Nevertheless, this post is also not going to be a tribute to the "beloved" or that special someone that the whole idea of V-day is dedicated to. This tribute is rather to that person who is as involved in the special relationship and giving suggestions and ideas all along. To be honest, my initial thought was to write a tribute to that special kind of love and write about it's glory. Taking a deeper thought into it made me realize who would actually be deserving of the tribute more than the special beloved. I am not sure if it works the same way for our guy friends, but for us ladies - behind every successful or unsuccessful relationship, there has to be a best friend (or two or more)
