GRACIAS


Thank you for coming into my life

For showing me good times

For being the shoulder I needed

For immersing me in laughter and joy

For sharing your thoughts



Thank you for the free lessons you taught me

For sharing your bliss

For sharing your gloom

For showing yourself



Thank you for teaching me the art of betrayal

For showing me the opposite of love

For showing me the risks of falling in love

For preparing me for the worst

For bringing out emotions I never thought I had



Thank you for changing me

For making me appreciate the good in bad

For making me realize how strong I am

Thank you for making me the best of persons

I hope I made you a better person too

And above all, I hope I left you a grateful soul.

What Is Love?

"I thought it was love all along until it ended."- Lord Vito I have come to the realization that Love is the greatest emotion of all and apparently the greatest mystery to mankind. How is this so? Apparently “what is love?” was the most searched phrase on Google in 2012 meaning as much as we might want to believe we have known and experience love for a long time, we haven’t come to the absolute truth about love but have been only able to come up with theories to explain what love is based on different perceptions as it were. Arguing from a biological perspective, physician Jim Al-Khalili asserts that:  “love is chemistry.”- Jim Al-Khalili He further argues that love is a powerful neurological condition like hunger or thirst, only more permanent.

HOW SOCIAL MEDIA IS KILLING YOUR RELATIONSHIP

To us millennials, social media has become part of our life-package and ceased to be the mere privilege and a means of social connection it ought to be. While social media has the potential to beautify our day-to-day relationships, it also has the ability to cause great damage, particularly in our relationships. Social media can become an addiction. Frankly, I am on Whatsapp, Instagram, Twitter or Facebook throughout the day, partly because I am a blogger and need to stay abreast but the other part of me just loves seeing newsfeeds and stories from various people (some I don’t even know in person). I am curious about their lifestyle and how they spend their time which got me realizing that this can be a hazardous place to be. One minute you’re looking at the #ManCrushMonday hashtag on Instagram, and the next moment you take your eyes of the screen, it’s three years later, you’ve suffered a major heartbreak and you’re lonely despite the endless friend-lists or the infinite scroll

Think outside the box

You have probably heard the phrase “Think outside the box!” or came across the phrase in literature at least once in your lifetime. The expression has become a mantra frequently quoted in various institutions with the intention to encourage imaginative thinking, creativity and innovation. We have been subjected to a comfort zone characterized by familiar and linear routines which “boxes” our minds. I have always wondered, why think outside the box? Then I came across a quote that read “there are many ways to kill a cat” and then I thought to myself “that’s it.” We have to realize the importance of breaking through the status quo and the decades-old approaches to life, problem solving and strategizing thus this article’s primary intention. Resolved, one has to think outside the box because there are many ways to kill a cat. Inside the box which are the different societies we live in, there are set norms for us to believe from a tender age such that we cannot act or think contra
