This post is in the context of a question asked on the website Quora.com. The question was " If we all end up dying, what’s the purpose of living?". It is the answer to everyone who has such a question. See all the nests and wonder why birds made them. It's not easy for a man or for animals to make their home. It is a path filled with thorns. And several times, it can give them a feeling of distress and discouragement but they still strive hard and accomplish what they aimed at. But you will be wondering why ? Because you were sent to this world for a purpose.(They were sent to this world with a purpose. They are here to ensure the ecological stability, I guess.) It need not be a greater purpose like evolving the world. It can be just to ensure that the world is how it was meant to be. If you feel like you have nothing to do for yourself, then wait and think. You are a human which means you have a talent irrespective of your physic...

Life is there to teach us lessons or give hints of future and to make us better and better. It gives us lessons directly into our heads. It depends on how strongly we receive those lessons. if you don't believe, calm down, relax and go deep into your mind and thoughts. If you can't do that, try going into nature, then try this with yourself make sure you do not start observing nature. You will get a lot of things in your head and one of them would be a lesson or hint. So, I too got one lesson!! It's human nature that whenever a person does something passionately, he gets attached to it. He starts expecting results in terms of appreciation, achievements and materialistic glory. So, did I. A few weeks back,  I started posting photographs on Instagram and will keep posting on. But it ain't the main thing. The thing is that I got drowned in materialistic things. I forgot the happiness with whichone looks at his hobbies. I started comparing myself with the professiona...

A life of student goes around an academic session. So, is mine. Today, another academic session ended with a cocktail of feelings- happiness, regret, enjoyment and grief. The happiness of doing so many things, the regret of not performing academically as I should, enjoyment of meeting so many new people, the grief of not able to manage everything, But I know time will bring something good for me. Happiness- The year was a roller coaster of experiences. In the summers, I wrote my first story and the most important feeling of appreciation from my grandfathers. Then, Yes I focused on my studies during Quarterly exams and did fairly good. Being almost every time in the top 5  and that too without tuitions (a trend in youth without which study seems impossible). And I have PCM. After that, the year went in touching the books, scribbling the feelings into words. I wrote a story. I started writing football match reviews. Receiving feedbacks was something nice...

Ship of The Desert: Camel, Rising High We never know how a day will unfold. The way today unfolded, I loved that. The morning was as usual as any other day but the evening turned out to be one of the best. It was the first time ever when I was allowed to go to any of the public gatherings on my own and it was the first time ever when I was given DSLR on my own responsibility and it went amazing. So, I went to the 25th International Camel Festival held here in Bikaner and it was an incredible experience. It felt wonderful to decide where to go and where to not, what is good and what is not and not to follow your elders in every thing. Today I felt proud of the Rich and Royal Culture of Rajasthan. It was a whole new world to the people there. for me too. Some were fantasized and some themselves were fantasies. They showed how beautiful and important animals are to the rural people and should be to us too. It's rightly said that Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Many...

It's El Classico!! It's amazing!! Defending Champions vs League Leaders. 3rd placed team vs Unbeaten team. But Still BEST vs BEST.  Two sides equally good in each section of the game. Navas vs Ter Stegen, Ramos vs Pique, Modric vs Iniesta, Ronaldo vs Messi.  It was a beautiful game, players respected each other, Real Madrid kept the midfield tight disallowing Suarez any movement to the front and Barca decoded Zidane's tactics before the commencement of 2nd half, which finally made the Bernabeu silent. And Hats Off to Keylor Navas and Ter Stegen who kept the game alive. Line-Ups Real Madrid:  Navas, Carvajal, Sergio Ramos, Varane, Ronaldo, Kroos, Benzema, Modric, Marcelo, Casemiro, Kovacic.  Subs:  K. Casilla, Nacho, Bale, Theo, Lucas V, Asensio, Isco. Barcelona:  Ter Stegen; Pique, Rakitic, Sergio, Iniesta, Suarez, Messi, Paulinho, Jordi Alba, R oberto, Vermaelen.  Subs:  Cillessen, Semedot, Denis Suárez, Mascherano, Digne, André Gom...

One of the best trips I ever had begun in the evening of 26 November 2017. A trip to Odisha and Kolkata. It started with the departing in the train to Sambalpur. A comfortable and scenic journey, with my parents. We were lucky enough to capture a beautiful sunset. In the start, we got the company of an old family friend and his wife. An intellectual person, telling his views on the current journalism and literature, daunted with its plight in our city, Bikaner. Totally agreed with him, people don't write for writing, they write for money and that too of a standard except for a handfull of people. Leave it. Sunset In the journey, we passed through a couple of states, Madhya Pradesh and Chattisgarh. Madhya Pradesh was a beauty. Mostly covered with vegetation and that too beautiful. Every moment outside was capturable. But it was not possible as the window of my coach was not cleaned and made the photo to be captured almost impossible. But Railway too good, respo...
