Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier. There is a particular loneliness in that question because it rarely arrives at a dramatic moment. More often, it finds you while you are doing something completely ordinary. Yo...

Frenzy Adventure Zone - Sector 68 Gurgaon

                                                     
                                 

The weather was perfect for an outdoor activity, last Sunday but question was, where to go out and enjoy the outdoors? I took a friend's suggestion and went to visit the awesome new place right on the main Sohna Road, Frenzy adventure which has a tagline 'Treasure Zone for Adventure Seekers'. I think it is quite apt as they offer real adventure. Also liked the staff who went beyond their job descriptions to root for the adventure seekers and gladly handling our cameras to click some awesome pictures and videos. There was even one incidence, where the staff member, advised me that he will take pics but a video would be better so he will shoot one too. They were friendly and gave a sense of security and warmth to all participants.

Zipline

One of the most thrilling experiences in the park. You begin a zip through the journey from 45 ft above the ground and cover over 225 ft distance, letting your heart out and feeling the environs from the height.

Bungee Run

The perfect warm-up exercise. You got to run against the bungee cord, but it keeps pulling you back. Moreover, you are racing with your friends and it gives you an adrenaline rush as you take up the challenge.

 Obstacles rope course

I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The team has designed a mini adventure zone with wall climbing (wall of ropes), Mowgli walk, Burma bridge, rope tunnel, and tire crossing. I am told an expert can accomplish the entire set in two minutes. I tried, but it took me more than fifteen minutes. Especially the catwalk in the air is a tough job.

Other activities

Wall Climbing
Dirt Remote Cards
Rappelling
Rocket Ejector


Sky Cycling - The first such activity in North India. The wrap you with the harness, hop you on a bicycle, and you have to cycle 25 feet above the ground for 225 feet approx. It's a wow feeling!

Food Truck

On the premises itself, there is a food truck, where one can a range of snacks and munchies, in case hunger calls in between the activities.

Corporate Programs

Moving around the vast expanse of the park (It's like about an acre lot) the team informed me that they already had done some corporate events and are getting a good response for bulk bookings. I agree, that the Adventure concept which they have is quite well suited for groups. Not too far from Central Gurgaon, easy to locate and the best thrills with good food, makes up for a good offer.

 School Programs

The management told me that they had especially worked on safe and fun programs for school kids. I a no expert in those rides but they did look all great especially the indoor gaming zone.

Inspector Sharma-India salutes you

Its a sad day for the nation as it bids the final farewell to Delhi police inspector Mohan Chand Sharma. He died on Friday in an encounter with the terrorists who were involved in the Delhi bomb blasts. The nation could've rejoiced today with the successful operation of killing 2 terrorists and nabbing one, if not for the painful loss of this brave soul. He was the first one to enter the building where the terrorists were said to be hiding. Just think of the courage displayed by this man in the hour of need. As he knocked on the door, he heard some commotion going on inside. So he went inside through another door and was shot at. His team members swung into action after this and it was all over in the blink of an eye. Though he was taken to the hospital, Sharma succumbed to his injuries soon. He was a tough cop who has taken part in many successful encounters and brought laurels to the Delhi police force, but sadly this one proved his last. The terrorists who were killed were not m...

Satyameva Jayate - Free speech

More than 40 people have died in the riots that have followed the killing of Swami Lakshmanananda in Kandhamal in Orissa. 5 people were killed and 47 injured in Mumbai when Jerry Falwell made some comments saying that the Prophet of Islam was a violent man and a terrorist. 12 people had died in Mumbai in anti-rushdie riots. There are more instances I can point out, but these stand out because of the scale and because of how related India is to last two people. Mr. Falwell runs a Christian ministry in US and Salman Rushdie, although ethically an Indian, had migrated to Pakistan and was a citizen of UK at that time. Of all riots that took place all over the world following the statement by Jerry Falwell and against Salman Rushdie, India was the only place with causalities. Orissa has been a hotbed of communal tensions between Hindus and Christians for a while now. India is the largest democracy which is more than 60 years old. Why then are we so undemocratic in our conduct? I will not sa...
