To Samardeep Singh Banga with Love Hate

I don't want to care where and how and why he went away

I just want to be Selfish Today,

I just want my friend back



He loved Mathematics

I hated Mathematics

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



He loved gyming

I kept my distance from those weights

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



His room was the epitome of mess and disorder

I liked my room sparkling clean

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



He never remembered where he placed anyone's books

I preferred a prim and proper library

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



He liked to zoom and zap his bike and car

I wanted a peaceful pace

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



He loved gadgets and computers

I use them all, only for my need

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



He believed in his friends; their dreams ; their aspirations

I, at times lose faith even in myself

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



He enjoyed the game of cricket

To me, it was just another sport

Who cares

I just want to be selfish today

I want my friend back



He had fun brandishing abusive words at his closest friends

I loathed his habit at his face

Who cares

I just want be selfish today

I want my friend back



He was always cynical about God

My God, whom I devotedly worship and pray; took away Sam

Took away Sam

Took away my buddy

For ever … For ever … For ever


And Sam had the last laugh


But I still don't care

I still want to be selfish today

I still want my friend back.

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...

Punjab’s Stilt-Plus-four real estate rule 2025: Game changer or urban chaos? | circle rate hike explained

When the Punjab Cabinet approved the Unified Building Rules 2025, allowing stilt-plus-four floor construction across 40-ft-wide roads, it sparked both celebration and anxiety. For homeowners, it opened a new chapter of vertical prosperity. For urban planners, it may have unlocked Pandora’s box. Add to that a steep rise in circle rates up to 67% in Mohali and you have the perfect cocktail for a cityscape revolution. Is Punjab’s stilt-plus-four revolution a game changer or a warning sign for urban chaos? Punjab’s 2025 building rule reforms are rewriting its urban DNA. With stilt-plus-four floors now permitted on 250 sq yd plots and higher circle rates in force, Punjab’s real estate market is at a crossroads. Is this the dawn of new opportunities or the slow death of livable cities? The answer lies somewhere between ambition and chaos. Urban transformation often begins with good intentions and ends in gridlocks. Punjab’s new stilt-plus-four policy and simultaneous circle rate hike...

Legions of Slave Women in the Mahabharata

Awakening to the Bhagavad Gita (series) - 1 For, taking refuge in Me, they also, who, O Arjuna, may be of sinful birth— women, Vaisyas as well as Sudras—attain the Supreme Goal! How much more easily then the holy Brahmins and devoted royal saints (attain the goal); having obtained this impermanent and unhappy world, do thou worship Me. The Bhagavad Gita, Chap 9, Ver 32, 33 So women are of sinful birth! As well as all kinds of workers, business men, entrepreneurs, most of the general population. The only people of virtuous births are priests — Brahmins — and royal saints, meaning saintly royals, meaning noble Kshatriyas. No wonder then that Yudhishthira — to reinstate whom this whole Mahabharata war has been fought — maintained hundreds of thousands of slave women! Take that number again: hundreds of thousands! He had so much gold, he could afford to. He had so much virtue, but he wanted more! Let's find the facts and figures from Draupadi's own wo...
