Keeping a journal
There is a singular, unspoken joy in putting pen to paper and watching the chaos of one's mind take the form of sentences and doodles. Keeping a journal is not merely a habit, it's an act of quiet rebellion against life clockworking by. In a world obsessed with broadcasting, podcasting, forecasting, typecasting,... keeping a journal is an inward act where you double as both creator and lies in the silence that surrounds it. Unlike a conversation, there is no urgency to respond, no performance to maintain. One writes or sketches, and in that act, becomes. A journal doesn't judge, interrupt or scroll away. It holds your thoughts with patience, however wild, petty, brilliant or unformed they might be. Happiness blooms not just in recording big 'events' but also in the mundane details: the way sunlight fell on the floor at 3 pm, the overheard joke at the chai stall.... More than a record, a journal is a friend - unerringly loyal, never bored by your repetitions, never resistant to your thoughts slipping this way or that. Reading old entries offers a peculiar kind of joy: embarrassment of past melodrama, surprises of forgotten insights... comfort of your continuity. Elevate your knowledge and leadership skills at a cost cheaper than your daily tea.

The days of English supremacy are went
In a twist of linguistic fate, fluent English speakers everywhere are bracing for the inevitable: the total social collapse of English language prestige. Still considered in some quarters to be the global passport to power, diplomacy and deeply awkward small talk at corporate mixers, English is, we are told by reliable sources, on its way to becoming the linguistic equivalent of wearing socks with sandals - technically functional, but spiritually, aesthetically, civilisationally embarrassing. And the revolution is being ushered in - no, not by those who don't speak English, but - by those who speak English 'badly' (whatever that means). Even lifelong English language supremacists - to be found in quaint locales like Kolkata rather than anywhere in England - are now finding speaking the language 'humiliating'. People who felt superior just saying 'schedule' with a soft 'sh' now prefer speaking Tamil, or even Mandarin. Once Indian teenagers started calling out grammar snobs on social media, anglophonic teens in England and America retaliated by learning Malayalam, Spanish or Bengali. Interlinear group chats have called out English as 'kind of cringe'. Keeping this galloping trend in mind, we must inform you that any day now - because of the shame in writing this in English - this column will switch to another language.
