The Twins

I studied in one of the most boring school of the town.
I was sick of my monotonous routine. Our school was famous for giving 100 percent result in boards. So there were a lot of new faces when I entered in my class. On the very first day, our sections were shuffled and both my best friends were in different section.
So I was looking for the people which will be able to befriend me. I already knew few girls, but I didn’t felt that anybody from them worth my trust. I finally decided to sit with a girl. She was a brilliant classical dancer. But her character – she was famous in our school not only for dance but her character. One of the most spoiled diva of our school.
In boys I didn’t know anybody was I never even cared about them till lastyear. Among the boys, many became my friends later and one of them was Harman.

He was a cool dude. He was what we call a freak actually. First two months we created a fighting record. We use to fight daily twice a day. He has a twin.

Actually they both were freaks. I didn’t realize that in all these fight we found our unbreakable bond of friendship. We use to talk on phone daily for hours and hours. My seat partner proposed him seven times. He finally ended up saying that he likes me.

Harman was my best friend and his twin my worst enemy. Harman and I used to talk 5 times a day and his twin and I used to fight 10 times a day.

From that day, we talked on phone everyday at least two times.

We both started sharing every single secret. He told me about his crush. “Nidhi”.

He said that he can’t live without her and will propose her next month.

I was all cool with the decision. But when I came to know that Nidhi bitched about me, I was after Harman to leave her. But I don’t know somewhere he started loving her and their bond became stronger ans stronger.



I was very good in front of Nidhi but I really didn’t like her by heart. Harman tried his level best to make us good friends but we both developed inner hatred for each other.

Days passed by and somewhere I started feeling that I should not believe anybody and at least should give Nidhi a chance. Harman finally proposed Nidhi and UNBELIEVEABLE. She accepted the proposal.

I felt a bit bad and even I wanted that they should break off or something. But as if it was going to happen. In summer breaks I and Harman had a serious fight and this time it wasn’t so simple. That time I felt somewhat like I should just go straightaway and tell Harman that I liked him. But that day Harman called me to tell that he is very happy with nidhi and will not let her go in any case. I started feeling bad again. But when school reopened i gradually realized that this guy isn’t for me. He is emotionless, he is numb.

Nidhi and I developed good relation and we started telling each other about her lifestyles. In my monotonous routine , talking with nidhi became a part. And now after a year,

Me and nidhi are kind of best friends, me and Harman obviously BFF J . But the scariest thing is that Harman’s twin and I are now FRIENDS.

Frying Pan.

Learning from Gardening

While composing status messages, just for fun, I simply jot down anything random that comes to my mind at the moment. Here is the latest FB message i posted few seconds ago. Tushar Mangl learns a lot from his gardening routine. Even when his plants die, he simply feels bad and then goes about to plan for new plants. Mostly because an empty space does not look that good. That is life for you. People will always go away from your life, at one point or another. But you cannot always leave the places vacan t. New plants have to be placed. Optimism has to exist for new flowers to bloom, new leaves to grow. Now, FB only gives me 422 characters to say my point. But my dear blogger, a companion of several years gives me much better platform to elaborate my thoughts. You see, in a flower bed I maintain near stairs of my house I had planted bougainvillea plants on either sides of the bed. As fate would have it, and given my nature of getting too attached to livi...

A suggestion to break the loop of guilt, isolation, and emotional burnout?

Caught in a guilt spiral, isolating quietly, and wondering why rest doesn’t heal you? You’re not lazy—you’re carrying layers of unprocessed emotion and spiritual exhaustion. This is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reset. Let’s explore why you still feel stuck despite good intentions, and discover rituals, reflections, and real reconnection to help you come home to yourself. First Published on 20/06/2008 14:30 Second edition Published on 04/07/2025 12:51 Why do you keep spiraling despite good intentions? Let me ask you this. Have you ever written out a self-care plan so perfectly, maybe in a brand-new notebook—drink more water, meditate, go to therapy—and yet by day three you’re numbly binge-scrolling, wondering what’s broken now ? Yeah. Same. We don’t spiral because we’re undisciplined or lazy. We spiral because the emotional weight we’re carrying goes deeper than we admit. It's not about a missed workout or failing to reply to that one text. It's the inner tug-of...

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...
