From our first alphabets to our final exams you have always been there guiding me through life's most important and crucial moments. You held our hands to teach me how to write and taught us discipline and for our younger’s as well as our elders. You take out time from your busy life and devote it to us. You are not just our teachers but our mothers that make us the leaders of tomorrow. And I know I speak on behalf of all my fellow student's when I say that we are forever in your debt for all the love and care we have received over the years

THE PERSON THAT I ADMIRE THE  MOST  – MY AUNT There are a lot of people in this world that help in shaping our futures and the kind of people we will become when we grow older. We all have this one person that we can share everything with, for me it is my aunt- Purva. She is not a famous celebrity or a billionaire entrepranuer or a star sportsperson but for me she is the best person in the world. It is not because of the adoration we feel towards each other as relatives but because - whether it be encouraging me to stand out in the crowd or recommending good books, she has always been there when I needed her. A few years ago, I was burdened under peer pressure and had lost all hope in myself that is when she gave me the courage to be confident and optimistic. She made me fall in love with my own self and happily look forward to whatever comes next. I have seen her play the role of a mother, wife and daughter-in-law apart from an aunt and I must say she manages ...

#PrayForGaza The Gaza–Israel conflict is not something new it was started in 2006 and has continued still. What started out as a political conflict is now a threat to thousands of people. According to certain reports more than 800 people have been victims of cease-fires and other such attacks by the Israeli’s . The border barrier built in 1996 has also built barriers in hearts.Recently the Israeli gov.  also refused passes to workers as well as for medical purposes. Hundreds have been slaved , thousands have been orphaned. People are scared of their own shadows. In such a situation all we can do is stand by and watch as great unjust happens to humanity? We can pray , pray for peace and for the betterment of Gazans. I request everyone of my readers to light a candle everyday in order to show your support for peace in the name of humanity.

MISPRONUNCIATION One of my biggest regrets in life would be finding out that I have been pronouncing a word wrong my whole life! I guess it would be the same for us all. So to save you guys from the misery here the top 27 words that are usually mispronounced-

NELSON MANDELA- "I AM  PREPARED  TO DIE" Here is an ode to the great soul that lived to provide others. I do not know about a more charitable person. God bless his soul. Here's to him!

EUTHANASIA The above refers to intentionally ending a life in order to end the person's unbearable pain and suffering. Although the actual meaning is "good death" in Greek, but I would hardly call it that. Many European and American countries have legalized it. In India, the high court refused it but the Supreme Court wants to debate on the subject. Honestly I have mixed feelings about this - on one hand, pain and sufferings that have been announced fatal by the doctor should allow euthanasia. On the other hand I agree that with the enormous amount of technological development every day we might even be able to cure the deadliest of diseases. Many a times the patient doesn’t want their family to see them in such pain and opt for euthanasia. This topic might touch close to a lot of people's hearts. Remember that life is not that simple. Each life is bound to a fabric - the fabric that consists of all the lives in the world. We are mere strings of that fabric but...
