Chocolate box - Poem

  I’ll take the dews on the morning leaves And drop them on my eyes And look at myself as they trickle down As if with genuineness the crocodile cries. When the lachrymose glands fail, Before the contents of my heart fade, I’ll put all my sorrows into a chocolate box And gift it to all my friends. I’ll take the fire that lights the cave And swallow it whole And carefully spit out the flames Like a pitiful dragon with a flickering core. When the adrenaline fails Before the contents of my smoke fade I’ll put my anger on a charcoal grill For all of you to see. I’ll take the clouds filled with humid ambiguity And put it in my brain And feel it run against my skull And feel something, anything, without vain. When my rationality fails, Before my inner vision fades, I’ll take my doubts out of my head And hope to share it with you. --------------------------------------- Sometimes people fake emotions and vulnerability, sometimes for attention, but also, sometimes ...

Do we let them take it easy? - My writeup concerning the exposure of CBSE's flaws.

 Governments all around the world had made mistakes, with varying levels. Different schemes had had flaws that could be patched. The first step any government could do is to take accountability. But in the case of our government, that’s not necessary. Let’s just let people die instead. This is not an exaggeration. Students have committed suicide over despair due to exam paper leaks. Heartbreaking notes saying “Sorry mom and dad”. Their mistake: relying on an education system like this. But apparently that mistake is allowed to cost them their lives. Yeah, let us not take accountability. Sonam Wangchuk, an Indian engineer and activist, an ally, and a reminder that this call for reform goes beyond any sort of teen rebellion. During the time of me writing this, he is undergoing a fast unto death for this change. It’s been 16 days, and he is approaching death with every passing second. But no, let him die, like a Gandhiji wannabe in vain. Let us keep our eyes closed so we can only see ...

Breaking the Social Norms for the Aged

Hello everyone, and welcome to another article form Comic Chronicles. At the time of writing this article, the year is 2023, and we are living in Gen Alpha. When we compare our current generation to the previous generation, we will be able to notice that our current society has much less social barriers, and we are under less expectations from society as a whole. Who knows, maybe in there future generations, more an more barriers of social expectations may be eradicated! However, there is one generation that we must consider: The generation of our grandparents.  I will use two poems to further explain this interesting topic, which are 'Grandma Climbs a Tree' by Ruskin Bond, and 'My Grandma' by Victoria Cornwall. The former of the two narrates poetically the story of the poet's grandmother, who is a young-spirited woman who loved to climb trees. However, she is viewed as peculiar and adamant by her family members and others. Eventually, she receives an opportunity to...

My Way of Celebrating: How I like to Celebrate any Achievement in my Life

 Hello Everyone, and welcome to another write-up from Comic Chronicles! Today I write an article on how I like to celebrate any achievement in my life. There are people (Most people, if I am not wrong) who love throwing big celebrations. In fact, I heard stories of people throwing parties for simple things like meeting a deadline! However, I am an introvert, and am not really a big fan of celebrations. Instead, whenever I achieve something, I usually just give myself the day off, or some time off if there are other things to do, that is, if my parents would allow me, of course! For example, if I achieved something great, my parents would allow us to, say, go to a fast food restaurant of my choice, or allow me to do whatever I want, such as slacking off with YouTube! You see, this is the reward I like to give myself for working hard; Giving myself time to do whatever I want, that I didn't get time to do while preparing or working on the task, or preparing for a competitive exam of s...

Star Achiever - Two of the greatest accomplishments I've ever done

 Hello Everyone, and welcome to another episode of Comic Chronicles! Today I talk a bit about myself, as I write on two of the greatest achievements that I ever made, and that I still am proud of. 1. First Spelling Bee Victory: Almost every year, I have participated in spelling bees. For those of you who don't know what a spelling bee is, it's a competition where we try our best to spell large words. However, in t spelling bee at my location, we have more advanced stuff such as synonyms and antonyms ,definitions, and even unjumbling words. It is actually a lot harder than the part where you just spell. However, when I was in 6th grade, I finally managed to get my first win in spelling bee. This was because that year, I decided to put my maximum effort into it, learn new words from the dictionary every day, learn its synonyms and antonyms... The test was conducted online individually, because of the COVID-19 restrictions. I did so good, that the invigilator actually suspected me...

The Land of the Rising Sun: Why Japan is a Dream Place for Me

 Hello Everyone, and welcome to another episode of Comic Chronicles. Today I decided to write something regarding the topic of travel, as I share with you about my dream tourist destination, the one and only Land of the Rising Sun, the breath-taking island nation of Japan, and why I want to visit the place. Japan, the Land of the Rising Sun. Credit:  Depositphotos First, let me share some facts about Japan. Japan is an island nation in Asia, neighbouring China and both the Koreas, as well as the northern (Siberian) region of Russia. It is 377,970 sq. km (145,935 sq. mi), smaller than the U.S. State of California! Japan is referred to by its citizens in Japanese as Nippon or Nihon (日本), meaning 'Sun's Origin'. Japan is also nicknamed 'Land of the Rising Sun'. Both of these names are due to the fact that the Japanese believed that Japan was the land that the very first sunrays shone on. Japan has the world's most populous city (Tokyo), the world's largest fish...

Health is Wealth, but Not only Physical: Exploring the different types of health and why they are all Important

Image
Credits:  iStock  Hello Everyone, and welcome to another post from Comic Chronicles! Today, we talk about one of the most important topics, especially in the current world, something that not many people consider, but is something we should all be grateful for and help develop; I'm talking about health. You might have heard the saying, "Health is Wealth". This statement, in my opinion, cannot get any more true. You may not know it, but health can have a great influence on our lives. Therefore, our good health is one of the greatest assets we can ever possess, and we should be grateful for it.  Now, there are different kinds of health, all of which we should appreciate to the greatest extent, as all these kinds of health influence our lives individually. Also, all these kinds of health are interlinked, and an imbalance in one aspect of the body can affect another. The different types of health include: Physical Health: Obviously, you may know about this more than the other...
