Who Should Choose Content Writing?

Students, housewives, professors, and retired people consider content writing as a good way to earn supplementary income. In general, anybody who has a knack for writing and aims to make it big in the field of writing sooner or later should look to get into this field. It provides them the opportunity to sharpen their skills of writing, while at the same time ensuring a good income.
I was someone who was in the dark about opportunities in this field for long. My country was going through recession, and there were hardly any jobs available. Then I came across an advertisement posted by a company which was looking for content writers. I was confident that I would make the cut, so I applied for the job and got selected. And now I’m raking in some moolah, though not much. The initial pay might disillusion anyone. However, if you choose to persist and settle down, you could easily be earning enough to lead a comfortable life.
But then, it also matters what kind of topics you get to write on. Fortunately, there is demand for writing in all areas, be it science, commerce or medicine, to name a few. Content writers can choose the topics that they are comfortable with and accept assignments on that basis. As long as there is unique appeal in the writings, they are bound to attract a large number of visitors.
Amongst content writers there are people who work full time and those who work part time. As mentioned before, people who are looking for some extra money in addition to that from the present job tend to take up content writing on a part time basis. Possible candidates to take this up on a full time basis include students who have nothing to do during their vacations, and housewives who are sitting empty.

Spill the Tea: Ira and the quiet exhaustion of being watched

Ira comes for tea and slowly reveals a life shaped by emotional surveillance. Loved, watched, and quietly evaluated by her parents, she lives under constant explanation. Through food and confession, she names the exhaustion of being known too well and finds nourishment not just in eating, but in finally being heard. Ira arrived  five minutes early and apologized for it. The way people do when they are used to taking responsibility for time itself. She said it lightly, as if time itself had offended her. She wore a white A-line shirtdress, clean and careful, the kind that looks chosen for comfort but ends up signaling restraint. When she sat down, she folded herself into the chair unconsciously. One leg rested on the floor, the other tucked underneath her, knees visible. It was not a pose meant to be seen. It slipped out before her body remembered how to protect itself. I noticed the brief softness of it, the quiet vulnerability, before she settled and forgot. I was still pouring t...

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...
