Don't glorify suicide; just glorify heroism

Glorifying the Suicide: It is tragic loss of life when ‪#‎PratyushaBanerjee‬ made a decision (or pushed into). However, she was responsible for it when other options were also available to her. Instead of fighting, she chose to flight...This is not a decision that can be rectified once made. Life is precious, god given and expected to make it meaningful. 
Friends and family knew (who are now talking on TV) are equally responsible along with her boyfriend as they could have provided better support system for her to get out of bad relationship. I wonder if the 'false ego' or 'extreme pride' makes a person inhumane that teaches to boost only success and avoid talking about issues/failures, then it is useless. We are failing to create the support system for our close friends and family to confide their fears, failure, issues in their lives. 
Respect the Life...this message would be more appropriate than glorifying the suicide. Otherwise, nonsense 24/7 senseless coverage would do more harm to the society than good to encourage a weak person to take such route. 
Although Hema Malini said correctly, "One must come out of odds & emerge successfully, not succumb under pressure. The world admire fighter, not loser", her last part was bit harsh as none knew the reality what a person went through to take such drastic decision. But, definitely she is right on - Be A Fighter.
Every person faces 'ups and downs' in life and we learn from public figure how they face the setbacks gracefully and emerge as winner. I remember Amitabh Bacchan's interview with Simi Garewal where he was talking about transition from superhero to character role and his life before 'kaun banega crorepati' and they way he narrated was so humbling, intense and inspiring. This teaches how successful people face the downfall and rise again in their life...
When we learn how to become successful, why we forget to learn how to face setbacks...

Fight, don't Flight...

Second Spring by Sandhya Jane: A Reader's view

This is an extensive analysis about "Second Spring" written by Ankita Chauhan. 


INTRO 
When I took a first glance of this book, literally I thought “Second Spring” is nothing but another love story that makes you travel a bit into dreamy land and ends with some obvious happy ending. But here author surprised me this book is lot more than just a love story. Not only you enjoy every bit of it plus you learn from every twist and turns of its protagonist life.

STRUCTURE 
Basically it is a story of a single mother, Avantika who is bold and beautiful in every aspect of life. She always believed in “not to lean on others shoulder” but when she met Rohan Rana she felt a sudden urge towards him due to his innocence. She got confused first but later on the connection been made. Though the feeling was mutual yet their relation couldn’t work out and they separated. 
No matter how much you try feelings take time to overcome. Avantika was trying to get over that pain with some spiritual learning and she accomplished it… suddenly Rohan reappeared and how things changed..? 

NARRATION 
Here I want to say that I admired the way Author narrated the whole story. The way she creates scenes is stupendous. While reading the whole image was in front of my eyes.. it was like a smooth journey where I met few interesting characters which made me realize about balance in life through their experiences. 

CORE 
Sometimes you don’t want to read just to get more stories, you read because you want to enjoy their little lovely or dark moments. If you feel the same, this book is for you cause author tried to create a whole life in front of us, you feel their pain, you smile with their happy moments. So I loved the book. Must say it is a healthy one but you couldn’t stop once you get started reading it. 
Generally we can’t take interest or we don’t have that much power to perceive what is happening behind the lighted glimmering world of corporate. This book is passage for you to know about their personal life. How they face challenges when it comes to relation.

Second Spring - READER’S MOMENT


This is copied from Ankita Chauhan's Blog

  • Love in Life is never a battle of 'win' or 'loss' but a journey of unconditional acceptance.” 
  • Love has a tendency to go out of the window when promises go awry, reality sets in, and responsibilities take over.
  • Women are emotional and proud creatures. They need to be respected and cherished in a relationship or else things don’t work out. 
  • Life comes with no guarantees. Who knows whether the next day’s sun will dawn at all? Best to savor everything right now. 
  • I loved the anonymity that a mega city brought to my life. Nobody cared who you were or what you did, you were just a speck in the crowd. 
  • Loving someone selflessly would mean praying for his or her happiness whether you are part of that happiness or not.
  • If you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt. Once we cross the deepest part of hurt, it doesn’t hurt anymore. You become part of the eternal journey of love… no hurt, no worries, and one just prays for the wellbeing of other person —that’s true love for you. Innumerable poets and philosophers throughout history have tried to figure it out— partially or incompletely. Love is a destined journey. 
  • Perfect maturity is to understand why your loved one did what they did, although their actions hurt you, hurting them back is not an option. 

Overall, It’s an light hearted fiction, If you want to spend a beautiful weekend. Go For it.
