Arts & Humanities > Art Appreciation Reflections on beauty: 'Beauty is but in the eyes of the beholder': 2 of 34
Ever wondered why just by looking at someone we've never seen before evokes a spontaneous feeling of like or dislike, respect or admiration, fun or humor or just a vague negative feeling?

Jobs & Careers > Getting Ahead Networking your way to new opportunities: 5 of 19
"Man is a social animal" Aristotle may have known nothing about networking when he had said this about centuries ago.

In recent times, the similar ... More..
Personal Finance > Personal Finance (Other) The link between money and happiness: 14 of 52
Happiness is a state of mind and it sure is not dependent on money. Look at that child outside, he is so happy playing in the mud or the sprinkler or just swinging or sliding in the park. This is inherently who we are. Nobody needs a billion dollar to be happy. At the most basic level, if we are in touch with our real self a... More..
Sciences > Sociology Hope: The great illusion of man: 2 of 7
Sometime back, I came across a statement which goes like " living a fantasy is better than living an act" What exactly does it mean!?

Society & Lifestyle > Feminism & Women's Rights Is feminism outdated?: 21 of 68
Whenever the question of feminism occurred, I thought to myself, ah, that's an outdated concept. Society has come a long way since women did not have any powers to live the life she wanted for herself, it has come a long way since the time they did not have any freedom of choice and it has come a long way since they are just...

Religion & Spirituality > Spiritual Insights Can humanity exist without religion: 7 of 20
On a normal regular day, I would debate strongly against the idea that there is absolutely no connection between humanity and religion. Religion is a creation of humans based on their own thoughts and different belief patterns. Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Jainism, have all evolved as people started to differenti...

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: What value are you adding to humanity?: 42 of 86
Sometime back, I came across a statement which goes like " living a fantasy is better than living an act!" What exactly does it mean? Are we supposed to live in the world of fairy tales or believe in the existence of Santa Clause? I was baffled for a moment thinking why are people so afraid of facing the reality? Why do they...

Politics, News & Issues > Terrorism The war on terror: A different enemy, a new reality: 15 of 24
Some said, now the world powers will be able to understand the strategic role India as a country has to play on the world map. Some tried to likened the attack to 9/11 and some contemplated about the possible terrorist organization that led the massacre. Some watched in awe; some in amazement with extreme disbelief.

Health & Fitness > Healthy Living & Wellness Best ways to minimize stress: 19 of 27
