Blogger Interview #7 - Nupur

1) 1) Blogging as a medium is often used for venting out ire, grudges, narration of love and heart breaks and sad romantic tales. comment.
I believe in the aphorism, “To each his own”. Every person has a different reason for writing as to what he/she is writing. So if someone wants to write about their personal lives… it’s their choice… and the readers’ to read or not.

 2) How much time has it been for you in the blog world.
I began blogging in late March, 2008…. So it’s been more than a year that I've been a part of the blogosphere.

 3) You are into active blogging today ad blogging is said to be a virtual version of a personal diary. Did you ever maintain a personal diary? Tell us something about it and differences between the two:
I never maintained a personal diary…. My life’s always been sort of an open book!! I think a blog ensures a little wider audience than a personal diary… I guess that would be the difference!
 4) Your favorites :
Many!!
 blog: Arshat’s TPI, Vinod’s Uncomfortably Numb and Abhinav’s My Dayz With Myself amongst the many I like! blogging platform (blogger/wordpress/etc): Blogger….. because I use it and also because I haven’t tried Wordpress!

 5) An ideal blog according to you would be?
According to me an ideal blog should be the one that is light, funny, witty…. In short one that entertains… where it’s ok to read without turning your grey cells on!

6) Every blogger has his/her story, what is yours?
Well, I started blogging because I talk A LOT and my friends were tired of listening to me, hence I choose this route! No, jokes apart, I began blogging just to know what this entire ‘blogging’ phenomenon was! And now, I’m dedicated to my blog, like it’s my own baby!
 7) Have you ever thought of using your blogging skills, career wise?
Umm….I'm Writing a story…. A love story, hoping to publish it one day. I got the confidence of publishing my work only because of my blog!
 8) Does the idea of making a book out of your blog appeals you?
The idea of making a book definitely appeals to me….. but not out of my blog!
 9) Tell us, generally, what kind of role does aesthetics play in blogging. Does the presentation of a blog matter a lot?
Aesthetics plays a huge role in blogging. The look of a blog, the font style, color and size are the primary things that would have a reader want to read your blog or no. Even the language matters a lot. It’s ok to not use words like how PG Wodehouse does, but grammar is really important. I think incorrect grammar puts off readers…even the use of SMS lingo, for that matter! As they say, First impression is the last impression, so make sure your blog appeals to the readers!!
 10) Some words for our blog buddies and visitors
Write from your heart…. That’s the key. It will definitely strike a chord with other people. Be yourself, you don’t sound convincing if you’re trying to be someone you’re not. And the most important of all, don’t get conscious of your audience…. The minute you get conscious, the words will stop flowing!! All the best, trust me blogging is both therapeutic and addictive…. So don’t forget to draw your line!

Financial minimalism: How to create abundance by needing less

Feeling stuck in the cycle of wanting more yet never feeling rich? This guide to financial minimalism shows you how to create soulful abundance by needing less. Through emotional budgeting, spiritual wealth practices, and minimalist finances, learn how simplicity is power—not poverty. Unlock sovereign wealth from within and reframe money as a tool for inner peace and outer purpose. Why silent strugglers deserve a new kind of wealth I once sat across from a man who looked exhausted—not just physically, but spiritually. He wasn’t poor in the traditional sense. There was a Rolex on his wrist, designer shoes on his feet. But in his eyes? Hollow space. A quiet, silent struggle most people miss. Society focuses too much on the loud winners: the flashy entrepreneurs, the influencers, the news-worthy success stories. But what about the invisible strugglers—the underdogs quietly wrestling financial, emotional, or spiritual breakdowns? People for whom abundance feels like a far-off dream? Thi...

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...

Some words on Generation Z: The generation that spells the future

If we peep in our past, we come across infinite instances where generational separation and arguments played a remarkable role in our lives. The Bible documented that frequent, spiky discrepancies existed across the various age groups (later known as “Generations”). Nevertheless these generational conflicts were always a part of the human civilizations; they didn’t come into sight as invariable and steady in power and impact but gave the impression to wax and wane across the era of time. First Published on 27/06/2009 22:16 Second revised edition - Published on 15/07/2025 13:46 One might wonder why this ensues. The question arising in here is that; whether the advancement of technology is playing a major role in enhancing this thereby making it very obvious for people to rely upon it endlessly and indiscriminately? Or is it the attitude of taking various things that varies in the off springs; further leading to devastation in the moral values present in the previous genes. The questions...
