I talk about nothing in particular and everything too?

Modern-day society espouses and holds many qualities in high esteem. The presence or absence of these qualities denotes the standing of an individual in said society. We pride ourselves in holding these qualities in high esteem and are often of the belief that it is this subscription to the idea of a set of "good" qualities that makes us successful. Chances are, you, the reader knows what these qualities are to some extent. It's difficult to list all of them but if we list the opposites of the biblical seven deadly sins, we can get a rough idea of what they are.                                           Seven Deadly Sins         Seven Heavenly Virtues                                                                        Lust          Chastity                                                                Envy          Gratitude                                                              Greed          Generosity                                                          

  Well first of all this begins with a mistake on my end as always, technically this blog had its first post on the 16th of November 2020 but hey, I'm close enough. One year is kind of... anti climatic when you think of it as "one year" but when you shift your perspective to 365 days, it becomes a lot more impressive all of a sudden. I first began this blog without much direction at all of what I wanted to write about and more to the point I didn't know if I'd be able to put in consistent effort at least to the least degree possible and somehow I've done it! Over these days I've started to enjoy writing a great deal more than I ever expected to. I find it extremely refreshing to just sit and type and muse for hours on end. The best bit is listening to people's opinion on it. When they respond positively, its a great sensation and when negative it sucks but I usually understand it has its root at constructive criticism. I'd say much more about how I

The Oxford dictionary defines the word significance as: "the quality of being worthy of attention; importance". Indeed even the word itself gives such an impression from a linguistic point of view. It's sophisticated and yet simple enough to be used daily. It carries a weight to it like it has some substance and yet, it isn't overbearing like denigrate or conflagrate( which means: to criticise someone heavily and set something on fire respectively).  The word came to my mind when I was going with my father to my school to write a model exam. He had to rush things quite a bit since it was during his office hours,  yet he'd always be ready for my sake. On this particular day, I had my Chemistry model exam. I harbour much ill will against Lady Chemistry with all her delicate intricacies, and was wondering how I would deal with the model exam when it suddenly occurred to me that my father was also struggling with issues of his own. He had to take the 40 minute trip to

There aren't many things as painful or as terrifying as our mortality and indeed the mortality of all that lives. It's strange how we know that death is something that is inevitable and yet some part of us wishes that it wasn't so, it wishes that all that blooms wouldn't wilt one day as impossible as it might be. It is this part of our conscious mind, that grieves and mourns in the wake of the death of a loved one. Many of us have or will try to suppress this emotion and instead try to ignore this sensation- of grief and hollowness, we'll try to maintain that we're logical and that we knew this would happen someday, perhaps that's our ego trying to shield us from the inevitable pain or perhaps it is our subconscious knowingly try to avoid something painful. And yet we must face this grief, as terrifying as it is and as hopeless as it seems, for our loved ones we must accept the finality of death. I am fortunate enough to not have any close family members or
