Wonder Called Woman

-
In the years gone by, I had the rare privilege of meeting some extraordinary people and even a brief time spent with them was a learning of a lifetime. Each of them had something to give unasked, something to share lovingly, something to evoke gently in me.

Among them again, are a few sweet ones I hold close to my heart - my girlfriends of all ages. From them I learnt how powerful a women gets when she embraces her femininity. Their femininity comprises their tenderness, their innate charm, their subtle creativity, their vibrant love, their balmy touch, and other magical ingredients.

Glamour doesn't define a woman; geniality defines her. It is one thing to be simply charming and quite another to be charmingly simple. It is all the difference of a rhetoric prose and an absorbing poetry, a difference of a moaning sensuality and an amusing lisp of a child; a difference of a booming excitement and a meditative repose; a tickle of a gossip and the solace of a gospel.

These sweet ones are well above the 'battles of the sexes'. They suit any role they take up and have a comprehensive take on things. Their sensibility is grounded in reality; never hasty in their conclusion; of cultured impulses; and their intervention most appropriate for the occasion.    

They are assuredly the most precious gifts of our culture. They deserve our respect, love, and care. I am confident that they can do without men. However, we men need you - to correct our destructive ambition, our unreasonableness, and our ingratitude.

I love you all!

What a striking end! Awesome! I agree to what has been expressed. We really need women. Neither for sexual desire; nor to see the curved structures. But to do great things while remaining humans and be separated from other animals.
Women have the power to make or break. Empires have fought for them. Emperors have died for them. Many have left everything they had for them. Women have the charisma to make males do what they want. Because of this, they make or break a man and/or his fortune.
However, the same charm has the ability to do or get done some great things as well. One of the cruelest British officers ruling India, was once depressed at the level of thinking of committing suicide. However, one letter from his girlfriend made him a strongest man. (Eventually, for Indians he became known as one of the Cruelest).
I get lot of power, vigor, energy, ambition to do something and elixir for life from my wife.
We definitely need women.

Well..I appreciate the efforts of explaining the power and qualities of women...But it’s really easier typed than done!
Boys can keep on writing pages and pages on the wiseness of a women..But when it comes to actually implying those thoughts, they turn thier backs...The famous ego comes in between all those great thoughts and thier deeds..So, I would like to say only one thing, if a guy really respects a women...he will focus on his deeds rather than all these long praises of a women..whenever he will realise that he has done something wrong with any women, he will go back and do something to make up for his mistakes coz of which the gal in his life was hurt...
So guys...wake up and take the action ...remember, it’s really easier typed, than done!!!

Cheers,

Fatal One-liners

-
In this age of self-help books and personality development courses, certain one-liners have played havoc in the contented lives of the masses. These one-liners are sustenance unto millions who suffer from lack of self-worth. They are charged, as it were, with divine potency, making the repetitioner of them surmount incompetency. "Believe in yourself", "You have it in you", "You can do it" and many more such tug at the human gullibility for self-belief. You will agree with me when you see girls of all sizes and shapes flocking to air hostess training institutes. Girls, regardless of their vital statistics, seek admission into these institutes on the strength of that woeful one-liner, "Believe in yourself." And, none of these girls wants to work for a domestic airline. They want to be on the aircrew of either Kingfisher or Lufthansa or some renowned international airlines. Hats off to the counsellors who convince these girls into dreaming such s

To ChatGPT, or Not to ChatGPT

-
The other day, my YouTube listing featured a video on novel-writing using ChatGPT. I did not bother to watch it. I like to keep certain aspects of my naivety intact. Now, Khan Academy plans to deploy ChatGPT-powered tutors to replace human tutors. That was another trigger to bemoan the oncoming demise of the teaching profession on social media. The profession enjoyed an imagined immunity from digitization. It was touted as the most in-person thing, after mothering and nursing, that children cannot do without. Although COVID lockdown came very close to dismantling that notion, the ineffectiveness of online instruction was evident to all participants including parents. But, online learning is not an instance of AI. AI was involved only so far as to cut out a father walking into the camera with only a towel hanging by the waist. Before children realized the usefulness of background blur feature, they had pried into the homes of their classmates sometimes allowing that voyeuristic pleasure

My Atheism

-
In my eagerness to commit to writing my conversion to atheism, I was missing the tiny wick of the lamp on the altar. The eagerness is not without a tinge of melancholy. Compared to the time I spent tending to my faith, my lapse from faith is very recent. I still hear the creak of that door shutting behind me. People ask what happened. I am at a loss to explain. Therefore, this blogpost. The idea of God always attracted me. He was a figure with whom I often conversed. While my trust in people always diminished on re-evaluation, God always grew in my re-assessment of Him. Troubles intensified my prayers, happiness made me grateful: Faith met no challenge whatsoever. I relished believing in an invisible Being. My reason became the handmaid of faith. Reason argued, “Faith cannot be rationalized; it is prior to reason. There is a reason why it is called faith, in the first place.” God had an unquestionable hold on me. Of course, if God is prayed to as a benefactor and arbiter, that belief c
