Reign of Uncertainty

Voyaging through the blogosphere, this time, I was as usual, looking for some fresh face, with the exception that I really don't want any sad or dark blog, like the previous few ones.
I see this profile of a young cheerful blogger and am sure, my search has to halt here. Still as per my routine, I scour about hundred blogs and still this smiling kid's photo brings me back with an assurance of a great blog.

So enter, the self proclaimed tech geek, Pulkit Arora's blog Reign of Uncertainty, only to be disappointed very soon. A teenage guy, with such a great content on his blog, puts up a depressed and sad fish on his blog header, *Sigh*.

The blog URL http://confusedforeternity.blogspot.com/ and the choice of title Reign of Uncertainty, the title description, deserve special appreciation. They aptly tell you what all this blog is about.

A blog by a teenage boy, incorporating various elements that we do experience in our teens. ( The blog does remind me of my teenage years; the sst exams, movies, tech talks etc.)

A good blog for teenagers to browse through, guys and gals alike. Or for young men like me to recall the bygone era.

Three posts, I recommend and liked are:
1) Hard Hitting Cinema ( a very well made list)
2) Say Hello (I liked it, because it reminded me of my techno bro in Pitampura, and of course the object in display is cool)
3) The Illusion of Progress ( Loved his writing, style, the thoughts he put in and most of all the depth)

All in all a good blog, regularly updated. Bit trouble in navigating through old posts, in the absence of proper labels though.

Check it out and comment in here, about your views.

Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf

Why does Mrs Dalloway still speak to you after a hundred years? A human reading of Virginia Woolf’s novel A reflective and thoughtful review of Mrs Dalloway that explores why Virginia Woolf’s modernist classic continues to resonate. From memory and mental health to love, regret, and time, this article examines characters, themes, context, and craft while questioning whether the novel still challenges and comforts today’s reader. Why does a novel about one ordinary day linger in your mind for years? This long form review of Mrs Dalloway explores through its quiet power. You will find analysis, critique, history, and personal reflection on why this book continues to unsettle and comfort readers alike. Can a single ordinary day hold an entire life? Have you ever reached the end of a day and wondered where it went, and more unsettlingly, where you went within it? That question sits at the heart of Mrs Dalloway , Virginia Woolf’s 1925 novel that dares to suggest that the smallest moment...

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Spill the Tea: Noor and the Silence After Doing Everything right

Noor has done everything she was supposed to do — moved out, built a life, stayed independent. Yet beneath the neat routines and functional success lies a quiet emptiness she cannot name. Part of the Spill the Tea series, this story explores high-functioning loneliness, emotional flatness, and the unsettling fear of living a life that looks complete from the outside. The verandah was brighter than Noor expected. Morning light lay flat across the tiles, showing every faint scuff mark, every water stain from old monsoons. The air smelled of detergent from a neighbour’s washed curtains flapping overhead. On the table, the paneer patties waited in a cardboard bakery box I’d emptied onto a plate. A squeeze bottle of ketchup stood beside it, slightly sticky around the cap. Two cups of tea, steam already thinning. In one corner, a bamboo palm stood in a large terracotta planter. Thin stems. Too many leaves. Trying very hard to look like it belonged indoors. Noor sat down and pulled the chair ...
