Wondering what does \"Carpe diem\" mean ? Carpe diem is a Latin phrase meaning \"seize the day\". This saying is used to encourage someone to make the most of the present rather than dwelling in the future. #lifeisfleeting. Carpe diem is a Latin aphorism , taken from book 1 of the Roman poet Horace's work Odes (23 BC). This term was first found in Odes book 1 : Dum loquimur , fugerit invida Ateas : carpe diem , Quam minimum credula postero which translates as : while we're talking envious time is fleeing :. Pluck the day , put no trust in future . Believing that living everyday as if it were my last brings a sense of quality and purpose to living . Why even live a life without meaning & purpose ? Carpe diem may be a philosophy for thousands of people around the world , but of course , it is easy for mang people , including me , to forget about the importance of making most of life . In life ,different occasions call for different actions , but there is always one thing that we can always count to lift ourself up : living life to the fullest . When we start focusing on what is truly important, we constantly start feeling the truth , meaning and joy coming forward from within ourselves.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1570379782084},{"id":1570380926517,"type":"img","data":"5d9a1c7e8fe55"},{"data":"

India, the land of festivals. India could well be called the land of festivals. The amalgamation of different cultures, languages and religions ensures that there is a festival being celebrated in some part of India almost every week. Festivals in India are awaited all year long and are celebrated with great pomp and show. The entire atmosphere is filled with joy and enthusiasm during the festive season. People of India love their festivals and celebrate even the less significant ones with enthusiasm. \nNight provides rest and rejuvenation. During the night, you turn inwards through sleep, and you wake up feeling refreshed and rested in the morning. In the same way, Navratri or the \u2018nine nights\u2019 is that time of the year when you get the chance to experience deep rest. This deep rest brings freedom from all kinds of botherations, deep relaxation, and creativity. Navratri, as the name itself suggests that it is a festival which spans for nine nights(ten days). Our spirit has existed since time immemorial. It is the boundless and the eternal source of energy of this universe. During Navratri, even the subtle energies in the environment enhance and assist one\u2019s experience of reaching the spirit. The prayer, chanting, and meditation performed during Navratri connect us with our spirit. Getting in touch with the spirit invokes positive qualities within us and destroys laziness, pride, obsession, cravings, and aversions. When stress in the form of negative emotions is destroyed, we experience the deep rest of the transforming nine nights. The festival is associated to the prominent battle that took place between Durga and demon Mahishasura and celebrates the victory of Good over Evil. These nine days are solely dedicated to Goddess Durga and her nine Avatars. Each day is associated to an incarnation of the goddess. People celebrate these nine days by keeping fasts and dressing up in different colours of the auspicious days. During Navratri people prefer their folk art garba and dandiya. All the people nearby gather at one place to enjoy and play garba. Well it is said that if you want to experience the best Navratri which will stay for a lifetime.. Then rajasthan, Gujarat, and kolkata are the best places to look out for. Well I'm not a Hindu but as kolkata is my hometown so I know lot about the trends over there and I like to explore all different cultures and traditions. So I have experience some of the mesmerizing celebrations of durga Pooja over there. So There instead of saying 'Navratri' they say it as name 'Durga pujo'. In Sanskrit durga means 'the impenetrable'; she exists in a state of self-sufficiency and in ultimate power. This powerful form of Mother Goddess is highly revered in Kolkata which is why her return is celebrated with much grandeur and ceremonies\nIf you are in Kolkata during Durga Pooja, then you are at the right place on right time of the grand celebrations, you shouldn't miss out on. The preparations for the festival are as fascinating as the festival itself. A week prior to the festival, the city gears up and can be seen wearing a look of eagerness and excitement as it prepares itself to welcome the Goddess home. The gorgeously decorated pandals each emphasize a theme; be it the legends of Goddess Durga or scenes from Hindu epic texts. Nowadays, some pandals are themed on a social cause to spread awareness. Day time is usually better to see the pandals closely when the crowd is less however; the brightly lit pandals in hundreds of colors is quite a sight of its own in the evenings. Food is a major feature of the Kolkata Durga Puja festival and Kolkata is reputed to be a foodie's paradise. Sure enough, in a festival this grand you are bound to find the most delicious and incredible variety of Bengali cuisine. From snacks and sweet dishes that only Kolkata is famous for; to the Kolkata Durga Puja special themed Bhog meals that have a little of everything. All the pandals offer Bhog (offerings made to the Goddess Durga which is later distributed among the devotees) and community kitchens are also set up. So I would like to rest my views by saying that not only in kolkata, from jammu and kasmir to kanyakumari all over the India. Navratri is celebrated in a different and unique way. During these festivals we get to see different colours of india. It may be cultures, traditions, other rituals or religious practices, different states have different way of celebrating. As we say india has it own different colours, it is because of the festivals, culture, tradition. Navratri is celebrated in a different and unique way. So if we want to explore india, it's better to do it mostly on festivals seasons.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1570344955192},{"id":1570345707155,"type":"img","data":"5d9992ec0aadb"},{"id":1570345355930,"type":"img","data":"5d99918cbeb5c"}]
Am I not a human being? Then why am I not allowed to live? Why am I caged, suffocated, and tortured? How could you let me be born if this is the way you wanted to treat me? Am I such a burden to you? \nI want to tell you about everything happening in my life, about my friends, about my boyfriend, what all happened in college, what random people said and did which made my day either good or bad, where all did I roam about, about my passions, interests, what I find good, what I find bad, my opinions, and everything else which I might tell my friends about. But the only way you react is by shouting and it makes my nerves break. I never want to lie to you but you've made yourself so unapproachable and scary that even though I know I am a bad liar, I lie to you, thinking it would save me from your horrendous tone. I am afraid to ask you for anything.\nIs this how things are supposed to be between a daughter and her father? If I have the right to vote then I think I am old enough to make at least a few decisions for myself; I have the right to at least a wee bit of freedom every human being deserves. \nAll I want from you is a little bit of cooperation and understanding. You have been living your life to the fullest now, let me live.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1570346416077}]

Friendships and romantic relationships make our lives go round. Without them, our lives would be dull and lonely. Unlike family members, we are allowed to choose our friends and lovers. There are various levels of friendships and diverse forms of romantic relationships, and they can all lead to being close, intimate, and loving. Both friendships and romances considerably enrich the well-being of our physical and mental state. Friendships can lead to romantic relationships, and romantic relationships can lead to just being friends. <\/p>
\nThe best romantic relationships are the one based on trust, respect and mutual understanding. We all have certain expectations and opinions when comes to relationship. It can be a general opinion or personal opinion. There are certain norms when it comes to dating such as guys is expected to open the doors for the girl or pull out a chair for her or pay for the date. These are the major ones do you guys that it is the responsibility of a guy can a girl not do that for herself? Or is it the guy being \"gentlemen\" as everyone says?<\/p>
Friendship to love is the most common or as many people say the most cliche one given that I have read more than 25 books on these types of relationships. But it is my personal opinion that it is the best type of relationship given that friendship is based on trust, understanding, and respect for each other. I think it should be base for any relationship.<\/p>
But all relationships are not happy relationships sometimes we get hurt but we should not give up hope and try again to find someone who understands us and love us.\nAny relationship is not easy and for it to work both the people in the relationship should try to understand each other. Unless there is an understanding between them it is hard for a relationship to work out. the best way for a relationship to work is both should have an understanding and are willing to work on the relationship.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1570186454888","data":"
