  • Love comes in different form

    Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?
    View all responses

    I struggle to accept love, with my emotional quotient (EQ) as low as 30%. Expressing my own affection and responding to others’ displays of love pose significant challenges for me. Recently, I have been receiving an abundance of love from people, even those I haven’t known for long. The care and affection extended to me are immeasurable. When I mentioned my search for a better job opportunity, their reactions were a mix of happiness and prayers, for which I am deeply grateful to each one.

    They generously offered their assistance and provided valuable suggestions to help me find the best career opportunities in life. Their sincere desire for my well-being is truly heartwarming, and I am genuinely thankful for their support in shaping a better life for myself.

  • What according to me is living a long life?

    What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?
    View all responses

    Who would not aspire to enjoy a prolonged life? It is indeed a blessing to experience the passage of time over the years. It would be irrational to claim that I do not desire a lengthy life, and I am confident that only a few would express such sentiments. While I do wish for a fulfilling and mature life, I am not inclined to outlive my vitality and become a burden to my loved ones, necessitating their daily care.

    In the event that I find myself in such a predicament, I would prefer a life where I can maintain my independence and relish each day without being a source of trouble for those around me. In such a scenario, I envision living a life free of regrets, savoring moments, and ensuring I leave behind no burdens for my loved ones. Witnessing the joys of my grandchildren and counting my blessings would be the epitome of a beautiful life, one that anyone would dream of experiencing.

  • One unique thing I can do is prepare food that no one can eat!

    What could you do differently?

    I have a unique ability to prepare food in a distinctive manner, crafting dishes that may seem exclusive to my taste buds, leaving others in amusement. I genuinely find it hard to believe that people could replicate my cooking style. It’s quite amusing to me; I can’t fathom anyone else cooking quite like I do. That’s one area where I truly stand out in doing things differently in the kitchen. (PS: This food is not edible for others lol)

  • The College that shaped who I am today

    Daily writing prompt
    What colleges have you attended?
    View all responses

    The college that I initially perceived as a jail now holds the fondest memories for me. Every single memory I have from that time is cherished, making it the best college in the state. The institution has rules and regulations governing every activity, and adherence to these rules is mandatory. Though the rules are strict and unyielding, I have come to realize their immense value in shaping my life.

    I confess that I had expressed frustration and resentment, particularly towards the law enforcement personnel in the college and hostel. However, in retrospect, I acknowledge that these rules have proven to be incredibly advantageous for my personal growth. Each rule was in place for a specific reason, and I now understand the wisdom behind them.

    My college experience was not just about theoretical studies; it laid the foundation for my life, and I am profoundly grateful for it. Engaging in Social Work studies provided me with maximum opportunities, and I have no regrets about the discipline enforced in my college, where non-compliance came with consequences.

    Looking back, I appreciate the seemingly silly mischiefs, the competitive spirits, and the laughter over trivial matters that collectively defined my college life. I owe a debt of gratitude to the college for shaping me into the person I am today.

  • What is like to play with Children

    Daily writing prompt
    Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?
    View all responses

    I haven’t been enjoying playtime as I did in the past. I adore spending time with children, engaging in spontaneous activities like running around, laughing, and giggling without any inhibitions. When playing with children, you forget about the complexities of the world—unhealthy competition, negativity, and worries all fade away. Your sole focus becomes making the child laugh, sharing moments of joy, and being loved for who you are to them. The satisfaction lies in their smiles and laughter, and you find yourself willing to do anything just to see the child smile back at you.

    Unfortunately, my playtime has become limited to online mobile games. Rarely, or not at all, do I engage in physical play. The only activities I currently partake in are going for a half-hour walk or doing some stretching exercises. Beyond that, I don’t involve myself in any games or recreational activities.
