It states that all wishes and positive and negative wants become realised if we manifest them to the universe.  How does Manifestation Work? Manifestation might now only be a term popular in people's Twitter bio, but it is an ancient practice used by many over the years to gain massive opportunities and success. The philosophy or scene behind the power of manifestation claims that we are all made up of energies. When we yearn for any event or object we project that energy into the universe to attract that in our life.  To attract the focus of our desire we only need to imagine, talk or think about it to the fullest extent. if it is th...

When I started writing my blog, the first topic on my list was going to be imposter syndrome and how to deal with it.  But then I thought it wouldn't be a good topic. talk about foreshadowing.  Time and time again I keep coming back to that topic. I want to talk about imposter syndrome, but I never knew what would be so different that my readers have never read before. My writing process involved writing material that has a familiar topic with new information and unique specific data. with imposter syndrome, this could be an untouched approach.  So after ages of sitting on this topic, I have finally decided to just go with it and write what I feel like in the hope that you will find this relatable and helpful.

   If you could live anywhere, on this big blue planet, where would it be? Would it be near the beach, where the sound of waves could be heard in between the conversations? or It would be in the city that never stops to catch a breath? Or in the middle of the forest with nature where everything prospers and thrives with greens and fragrant flowers bent by the weight of fat bumble bees?    My dream destination is away from all the habitation, it's me and the plants only.

To wait for the rain to stop seemed like an impossibly long span of time.  Before she could slow down, she saw the door open. Crashing into the arm of the person on the other side, her first thought was about the paper she was carrying. Paridhi under her weight could only see the biggest, brightest smile on her face.  She knew what it meant. Without speaking a single word she knew they would be spending the next three years of college together.  This was not the first time their life has led them to the same paths. It all started with both Mrs Tripathi and Mrs Sharma having to be taken in the same ambulance down to the local hospital, just before midnight on 21st June. Born just 3 minutes apart. Mrs Tripathi was fixated on naming her daughter Geet for the last three months, bu...
