Rudolph, the unique reindeer 🦌



                      Picture 1

Christmas is celebrated with great joy all around the world. This occasion is a reminder that our God loves us to such an extent that he sent us his only son. Jesus Christ lived a simple life for us and died for us, and he continues to do so. For me, Christmas has always been the most anticipated part of the year. Decorating the house and making sweets together, cracking jokes, and filling the house with carols always leave beautiful memories.
 
 
Christmas carols are like icing on the cake; they bring in a different energy and joy. One of my favorite Christmas carols that never fails to lift my mood is Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer. Apart from being a jolly Christmas carol, it has also been a reminder that I am perfect the way I am. Rudolph was unique; he was different, because of which he would always tease and call people names. He was always left out by the other reindeers until one foggy night when Santa came. We are all unique and blessed with distinctive qualities. While some see this as abnormal, others recognize us as unique.

So every time you hear this, Carol, know that you are unique. Don't let anyone pull you down. There will be people like Santa who will know your worth, and there will be people like the other reindeers who will tease you. But always keep your head high and love yourself because being different or distinguishable is normal; being the same is alien.




MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE 🎄🦌!!!!

Roots or Wings?

 "Wings are important but so are the roots", said the dean of my college in her speech at one of the department functions. This led my classmate sitting beside me to ask, "what do you think is more important, wings or roots?" And all I said was "both". But that question stayed with me. As I lay in bed and reflected over my day the question came back to me. I couldn't pick one, but there was one image in the back of my mind. A flock of birds migrating. Maybe it was the word ‘wings’ that brought that image, but when I was thinking about the question, I remembered that although family or in this case my roots are a very strong value to me, I chose wings and the only thing I could relate it to was migrating birds. Birds choose to migrate when there is a lack of chances of survival. They migrate when the climate in their current living situation gets hard to live in or when the availability of food gets uncertain. They move to lands where they believe there...

Life never stops bowling

In december last year someone said, "welcome to adulthood, it only goes downhill from here". I didn't really give much thought to it. But lately as I reflect on the new relization that has dawned on me, those words keep coming back. Life feels like a cricket field lately. Especially when you reach your last year of college. All your childhood and teenage life, while playing gully cricket, all you can think of and want to do is playing in the big stadium. But when the upgrade happens, you get nervous. It feels scary. What makes it more scary is that, life is the bowler. And when you think it specialiazes only in spinning, it will start throwing you yokers. And when you just get used to yokers, it sends you some googly balls. If you think it has only three tricks up its sleeves trust me you are mistaken.  Life keeps upgrading it's bowling skills. And if you think someday you'll be in the stands or on the bowling side, here is something I realised and I would want to...

The Refraction theory

As a kid, I was always fascinated by rainbows. I saw them as a promise of better days to come, a reminder that things will get better and the future is bright. Growing up in Goa, my siblings and I would get excited spotting a rainbow in the sky after the rains. Monsoons weren't so bad after all! Rainbows have always amazed me. In the 10th standard, however, this phenomenon gave me a new lens to look at life and myself. As my science teacher taught us how rainbows are formed after the rain through the refraction of light, a philosophical interpretation popped up in my head. While my classmates listened, some doodling in their textbooks, I couldn't help but draw inspiration from the rainbow. All I could think about the whole time and perhaps the entire day was how, if one simple ray of sunlight can refract into seven beautiful colors, then won't I, being human, too have unimaginable capacity, potential, and talent? How could we limit ourselves or others to specific categories...
