Let's celebrate diwali

-
So, it's Diwali time, it's a new beginning too, and it's also the noisiest festival. People in India try to celebrate this festival in the best way. Diwali is celebrated by bursting crackers and creating noise pollution and air pollution. So, it's people's choice whether they want to create nonsense! I don't know why people burst crackers when it's a new year next day. Whenever I try to stop people from doing this, people do call my argument pointless. 
So, now, I don't really tell them to stop this nonsense. Instead of it, I thought of writing this article. 

There are many other ways to celebrate Diwali. You can celebrate it in an eco-friendly way! Or in a different way or a helpful way. People can help poor children who don't have clothes to wear. Buying lakhs of crackers will never give you such kind of happiness, helping does. 
People can form a group and create awareness regarding how bursting crackers can adversely affect our health and environment. 
People can donate money in old age homes and make their Diwali memorable. 
People can clean their surrounding after next day of Lakshmi Pooja. (Why blame BMC after burning coal?) 
There are many other ways too but I don't wanna discuss it here. I want you all to find your own way of celebrating Diwali. 
Let's celebrate Diwali in a different way this time. Change is necessary sometimes... 

Happy Diwali in advance,
Amay Saxena

Laughing At Yourself is More Important Than Laughing At Others!

I have seen people getting angry at them, feeling guilty about mistakes they did but what I haven’t seen yet is – people never laugh at themselves. It has ever happened that – a classmate of yours has asked a foolish question to your professor and it is followed by a string of laughter. Have you eve r felt laughing at others is very easy but being a laughing stock is hard? The feeling of being a fun element is hard to swallow but laughing at something or someone is never tough. Everyone’s Target Making fun of others and taunting them again and again about where they went wrong, and how foolish they’re won’t help you in life. What really helps in life is observing your mistakes and working on it. The example of laughter I gave in the first paragraph can also influence a person in a negative way. It or she may develop fear of becoming a figure of fun and would never any question ever in front of people. Yes, it is also a kind of indirect bullying. Well, laugh...

Short Story: Man Standing in the Dark (Part One)

Part One   HOW OFTEN DO WE COME ACROSS A MAN WHO STANDS ON A DARK ROAD EVERY NIGHT TO DO A VERY STRANGE ACTIVITY?  Since last three years, I have developed this habit of not sleeping until 3 .a.m. in the morning. I don’t know why but I read all night and sleep all day. Everyone at home is mad at me except for one person. That is my father, who is a retired lawyer. Every day it is my mother, who is yelling at me, but I don’t see him having any problem with me reading all night. Initially, I thought he’s bored and he doesn’t give fuck about what I do, but it is not that way. Maybe he’s aware that I am not gonna do anything wrong staying awake all night, I thought. This thought rested other thoughts which were about to take birth and float in my mind for the rest of the time until I got a real answer to it. Helpless, I knew, those’ll come out anyhow.             So, one day, when I was sitting reading a Stephe...

Mahendra Singh Dhoni

MS Dhoni—the name needs no introduction. He is also known as Captain Cool. He is also known as the best finisher, best wicket-keeper, Mahi, etc. Yesterday, when I heard about Dhoni stepping down as India’s limited over’s captain. It came as a shock to me. It was unexpected but with Dhoni it is always a surprise. Like every cricketing fan, I also became sad by learning the fact that he only had one match to go for completing the milestone of 200 matches as a captain. Before his decision— I was observing from the last few months, every article in the newspaper regarding Dhoni had a piece of his retirement plans and his unsuccessful campaign in World T20. Some articles also stated that Dhoni is done with his successful career and he should retire. Everyone in the press started asking him questions regarding his retirement. Although, our Captain Cool, stayed calm and answered the questions tactfully without creating a big issue. Sometimes he did lose his coolness but he never sto...
