My proudest mountain adventure (how i felt when i was reaching the top of the mountain)

Image
A    few  meters more to reach my destiny, and I am starting to wonder whether I can make it or not. All cynical and unpleasant thoughts are striking my heavy brain, like what if my rope rips or lacerates apart and I fall down, or my foot slips from the glassy ice and then I sleep on my death bed. I stopped thinking and started taking deep breaths because now I felt like the oxygen was oozing out of my body. Then I heard the wild air hitting my nose and sending Goosebumps all over my body making me feel more apprehensive and scared. Then silence, at last, struck the atmosphere and I was left all alone in the ice-capped mountains. It took me some time to gather my courage and audacity once again. Only 2 more meters to cover and I will reach my destiny and goal. Then I took a step in every five min with my eyes closed so I won’t let my bravery fade away again. Suddenly, I felt that I was at the peak of the massive mountain and when I opened my eyes, I could not beli

Do we need 'Fashion'?

Image
                Fashion, a popular or the latest style of clothing, hair, decoration, or behavior which is adapted by people. Why do we dress up? Why do we tend to buy clothes which are worn by models?   It is fashionable and when somebody is a part of a society they dress accordingly with a touch of fashion. They keep their dignity while wearing a modern trendy dress and they still do not cross their comfort zone. These outfits also help to build up our confidence while facing a large audience and it also enhances our value in the profession and the way we dress reflects on our behavior and dignity. We also grab many people’s attention and slowly we start to become popular.              Does this help only the people who wear it? No. The world works with demand and supply policy. The demand for trendy clothes produces money for clothing designers and the manufacturers. The clothing designers make a lot of profit because it is a money-making business and it also gives employment to m

The people who have not visited Grand Canyon may ask: How deep can a canyon be?

Taj Mahal- A wondrous beauty in India

Image
                 Have you ever seen a palace which is purely built of white marble or have you ever heard of a mahal that glows with pink hue at dawn, milky white at dusk, and shimmers golden when the first ray of the moonlight strikes it? You must be wondering whether any place like that exists in real life, right. But let me tell you that this place exists in the real world. And it is situated in our motherland, India. This place is also one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites located at Agra, Uttar Pradesh . You must have guessed it by now, yes, it is the magnificent Taj Mahal. Taj Mahal is built by The Fifth Mughal Emperor: Shah Jahan, for his beloved third wife, Mumtaz Mahal, and this masterpiece is situated on the banks of the mighty Yamuna River . Taj Mahal is actually a Mausoleum in which the bodies of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal   rest in peace. Taj mahal’s real meaning is ‘crown of palaces’.   This crown of palaces is the sweet fruit of the hard work of 22,000 laborers, p

(A cute, emotional story for children) Scotch to the rescue

Image
                 I slowly opened my deep brown eyes. I found myself, the girl who had long strawberry blond hair tied up in a ponytail with few bangs left untied, sitting on a chair with my light rose complexioned skin tied to the chair. It was a dark, gloomy place lit up with a single dim light bulb on top of me. Where was I? I slowly started to recall what I had gone through. Then it all came back to me in a flash.             I was walking alongside the street with my only family, my dog Scotch. I lost my parents in a calamity in the sea when I was nine as we were sea merchants. Since then I had been brought up by my nanny, Nessa, on land. She was the one who gifted me Scotch on my 18th birthday. He had furry, silky brown hair, with large, round hazel eyes. He looks so beautiful that I had to lift him in my arms and cuddle him. He was a Labrador. As I lifted him up I could feel a strong bond between us and from then on nothing could ever separate us. But this day is the most unfor

Teens are more mature than kids... right?

Image
  Teenagers are said to be mature than kids but do they really act mature? Teens throw more tantrums than the youngsters do. The young mind has grown up now, and it wants to take matters into its own hands. But parents, as expected, are overprotective and don’t want to let go of their offspring, and accept that they have grown up at last.            Teenagers act like they know everything and yet lack much experience. They know that they need guidance but are not ready to accept the help which their parents are offering. Most of the teens are rigid about changing their attitude and they often get into a combat with their parents; as he/she does not want to take their parents' advice on changing.           Some parents give away their power to satisfy their children, but that is the biggest mistake a parent can do. They should always show their superiority and show them who the boss to their children is. They should also establish boundaries for their children and show them thei

Does mutation affect the organism and its surroundings?

Image
  Introduction:   What is a mutation? How does mutation occur? Why do organisms get mutated? Can we treat mutation? Will we get enough rights if we are mutated?              These are some of the many queries, which are asked by people. These people don’t stop until and unless they get the answer to their question, and I guess that their luck is shining bright today as all of their questions will be answered today through this writing.              To start with, let us know the meaning of the word ‘Mutation’. Online Cambridge dictionary (2019) refers to mutation as “the way in which genes change and produce permanent differences”. In simpler words, it is “a permanent change in an organism, or the changed organism itself”.   Description:     Any mutated organism is called a ‘Mutant’. Cambridge also says that a mutant is “an organism that is different from others of its type because of a permanent change in its genes”.               In the present era, mutants ar

Can brain dead people be brought back to life and is there cure for this?

Image
            Is brain death a disease? No. Brain death is just caused by diseases and is not a disease. Brain  death is also known as  brain  stem death. Brain death is when a person on an artificial life support machine no longer has any brain  functions. It is the irreversible loss of all functions of the  brain.   A person whose  brain dead  is legally confirmed as  dead . So finally we can say that brain dead people are alive but their brains do not function at all.             Our homosapiens eyes are sensitive to light. Our pupils dilate when it is dark and shrink when there is light but what if it does not react with light? Then that person is a brain dead person. If a person does not react to pain or does not flinch when the eye is touched then the patient is brain dead. The three essential findings in  brain death  are coma, absence of brainstem reflexes, and apnoea. Brain death is caused by cardiac arrest, heart attack, stroke, blood clot, severe head injury , a brain hemorr

BHUTAN MEMORABILIA

                                                PHOTOS AND   PHOTOGRAPHY DESCRIPTION    ICE CRYSTALS I was walking along the icy snow glazed path on the hills of Bhutan when suddenly, a natural, phenomenal beauty caught my eye. I was bewitched by the breathtaking view of the ice crystals that had formed in the small rocky hollow in the walls of the frosty mountain. A moment later, I just knew that I had to share this incredible scene with my kith and kins, so I decided to take a snap of this beauty which is rarely noticed by people. ‘Nature has its own way of sculpting things to show its eternal beauty’, just like these tender, delicate crystals. WATERFALL I was walking along the foothills of the mountain where the infamous tigers' nest is located when this impeccable sight caught my view. I was amazed to see such a beautiful view. I took this picture to show the world, that we can survive in this materialistic world by preserving nature instead of destroying it, like the people i
