In a couple of hours from now, we will enter the year 2021. What are our apprehensions for the coming year and how are we going to deal with them? Are we in this together? Today, I will talk about these. So let’s start.
The year 2020 was an eye-opener for all but what do we expect from 2021? It’s a new chapter, we yet have to explore. We learned a lot in the year 2020 in terms of how to be prepared for the worst scenarios.
Secondly, the year 2020, brought out all the fancies a young mind could have expected. It developed us before time in terms of innocence and facing realities of life.
Thirdly, most of us witnessed the worst economies in terms of unemployment. Our whole education system is a big question mark on what have we been doing for such a long time.
Frankly, we are producing slaves and not leaders, and the times to come require change agents, thinking minds, and not mere book worms.
Fourthly, the new year requires people to jump in rather than thinking whether they are good enough or not for a certain job/work/skill. Explore your productivity and enter into different fields.
Fifthly, stop underestimating yourself and others. We are all unique individuals and time has told us that. We just need to put ourselves to better use.
Sixth, the year 2020, has brought us all together like a big family where we have begun seeing all in their respective places. Now that we see them, let’s work for their well being together.
Seventh, the apprehensions and fear are natural for the new year but are not to be surrendered by a second or third wave or whatever comes forth.
And Lastly, though we may have lost many loved ones or colleagues or mentors this year, we will never forget them or the lessons taught by them.
We and the generations to come will carry forward their traditions of good and togetherness for ages to come.
COVID-19 and its after-effects shall pass too. As there is always lighting at the end of the tunnel.As said by Melody Beattie
“The new year stands before us, like a chapter in a book, waiting to be written. We can help write that story by setting goals”.
Think about it. Until next time stay safe and healthy.
With Christmas around the corner, many of us are looking for ways to put a smile on someone’s face. Today, I will share with you a few crafts that can enlighten anyone’s day. So, let’s start.
Christmas is all about bringing joy and celebrating it with family, friends, and the needy as well. So, it all depends on how you celebrate this day.
Firstly, if you want to show your love to your near and dear ones, you can start by creating a family blanket. It can either be crochet or printing or even embroidery. Your family skills can always come in handy and add a personal touch to your gifts.
Secondly, chocolates and delicious goodies can lighten up anyone’s day. Buy a variety of chocolates that are very reasonable around Christmas and make handmade bouquets and baskets; wrap them and deliver them all around. Who would not be happy to eat such a delight?
Thirdly, instead of spending a hefty amount on Christmas decorations, make them involving the whole family. You will certainly cherish these moments long after they are no more. Simply dip foam balls in pouring paints or create marble effects by painting on them to create mesmerizing effects. A thoroughly joyful experience.
Fourthly, who would want to miss out on decorating a gingerbread house. It is a great way to showcase your creativity. And this time of the year is all about showing love, care, and creativity to everyone. I can’t just wait to decorate one myself.
Fifthly, a special Christmas cake, who wouldn’t want that. It’s time to test your skills as a baker and make the day special. What are you waiting for? Start with the preparations and send me your own homemade cakes for a chance to be published in my recipes category with your name, picture, and recipe.
And lastly, don’t forget the needy in your joyous moments. Take out some time and visit them as well. As it is our good deeds that are returned to us manifold. Think about it.
Have you ever wondered what our children think about schools and the education being imparted there? So today, I will share with you some eye-openers regarding redefining schools. An up-close personal encounter with children. Let’s start.
Firstly, according to children schools are a form of child-labor and fits into the category perfectly.
See according to the definition; The term “child labor” refers to the exploitation of children through any form of work that deprives children of their childhood, their potential, and their dignity.
And it refers to the exploitation of children through any form of work that deprives children of their childhood, is harmful to physical and mental development.
It refers to work that: is mentally, physically, socially, or morally dangerous and harmful to children.
Secondly, children are exploited in schools and even online either by the bullying of some fellow students and even by teachers who take out their frustration on the child attending the class.
Thirdly, children are deprived of their childhood as school timings are from early morning till late in the evening. A child spends his or her maximum time in school where he/she might learn a new concept or might not understand it at all.
All this results in more labor and hard work when children are going to tuition centers for clarity of the stuff the school was meant to provide.
The burden of homework, uncleared concepts, and projects create a lot of conflict in the minds of young kids who feel stranded with bonded labor not able to enjoy family interaction or functions. And even attend their funeral.
Fourthly, studies show that about 83 percent of children suffer stress due to school.
Fifthly, the syllabus that is been taught for ages does not apply to practical life. It’s all theory. Modern-day requires modern-day techniques and approach. Old and rotten syllabus won’t help them excel in life.
Those minds that are creative and agents of change are lying wasted and the new batch getting ready is aiming towards a wasteful future with the old and rotten syllabus along with the rotten minds running the helm of affairs.
Sixth, for children schools, now are preparation for hell. A place where they are trained to bifurcate between high and low in the name of classes.
Principles wrapped in a golden box of lies, staining the minds with rules and discipline to be found nowhere except their own torn selves.
Unable to find the righteous path with so many multifaceted faces. Strangled between their own judgment and the realities of life.
In the end, I would say that our systems are in dire need of a change.
To our children, the school systems or any other educational system, are a warehouse of continuous depression and work. We, as agents of change, need to think about young agents of change.
We are standing at a very crucial stage. Think about it. Until next time, stay safe and healthy.
