Phobia into Fun......


Phobia into Fun......


Hello friends,

Do you have any Phobia????

Many of us have different phobia in our life. Here I am going to share my story with you all.

After a bitter experience I had in my childhood, I developed Hydrophobia. Whenever I saw lake, sea or even a small swimming pool, I used to get SCARED. My family members always allowed me to go for picnic near seashore, but I used to refuse it due to my fear.



In Summer 2016, I decided to overcome my fear. I knew it was not going to be easy, but I had decided to go for it. My sisters encouraged me a lot and also taught me Swimming. After many classes I finally learned to Swim. Of course I cried many times in my classes.

We generally think that we cannot defeat our fears. The fear gets so internalized that we hardly give chance to our own self to overcome this fear.

Once if you give yourself a chance then the victory is yours for sure.
Now whenever I get some leisure time, I go for Swimming. I never thought that I will add Swimming in the list of my hobbies.



So this way I turned my Phobia into Fun!!!!!

Friends go for it……Turn your Phobia into Fun…..


All the Best!!!!

"RIP"; Rest in Peace those who are Alive....

Hello Friends, After a long time I am writing here. Hope you all are fine. This time I have come up with a different interpretation of the phrase “RIP”. Mostly this phrase “RIP”; Rest in Peace is used for the people who are no more. We use this phrase to give sympathy towards the departed soul. The soul may get peace wherever it travels. No one exactly knows where the soul travels. Sometimes this phrase is used out of care and sometimes just for show off on social media. While sitting alone near a cemetery, a thought struck in my mind. Why do we use RIP only for dead people????? We can also use it for those who are alive. Many time people use RIP when a person is dead. The same people might have harassed the dead person when he is alive. So what’s the point of “RIP”? Suppose in the day time you behave very badly with someone. Is he/she going to get sound and peaceful sleep at night? The dead person will never come back so we just say “RIP”. Of course ever...

" The Winged Word"- David Green

In my Graduation syllabus, I had a book named “ The Winged word”. This anthology is edited by David Green. It is anthology of poems compiled for the students of English literature in the B.A courses of Indian Universities. The chronological order, in which the poets are arranged in this book, helps the students to note the development of English poetry from one age to another. Referring to this book after a long time span, gives me a immense joy. There are many poems in this book. We were given some selected poems to study during three years of graduation. The poems which were in my syllabus are as follow:-    1.)   I Find No Peace – Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503-42)    2.) My Friend, the Things That Do Attain –Henry Howard (1517- 47)    3.)
