Kingโs College Hospital in London has opened a rooftop garden for critical care patients, with its first patientโa 29-year-old woman dependent on feeding tubesโsaying the outdoor space gave her โa real boost to keep on going.โ
We are here in Himachal - Jibhi, Manali, Sisu, Jispaโฆ
Himachal traffic is no longer just an inconvenience.
Itโs becoming a serious tourism and public management issue.
Families stuck for 6โ8 hours.
Children crying in cars.
Elderly tourists exhausted.
Drivers mentally drained.
People searching for washrooms, food and even basic space to breathe.
But honestly, the blame isnโt only on the authorities.
Tourism has exploded.
Everyone wants to bring their own car.
People stop vehicles randomly for reels and photos.
Wrong parking, overtaking on narrow roads, littering, blocking roads for โcontentโ - tourists are also adding to the chaos.
The mountains canโt handle unlimited vehicles every day without planning.
Solutions are needed from both sides:
โข Better traffic management during peak season
โข Vehicle entry regulation in overcrowded areas
โข More public transport/shuttle systems
โข Proper parking zones
โข Emergency washrooms & medical points
โข And tourists who respect the mountains instead of treating them like a traffic-filled picnic spot
Himachal is too beautiful to become one giant traffic jam.
Show this to your children. They deserve to know that there once existed magical forests lit by fireflies, purple frogs that emerged with the rains, slender lorises watching silently from the night canopy, vultures circling wild skies, dugongs grazing seagrass meadows, striped hyenas walking forgotten scrublands, turtles blessing our shores, Raptors soaring high, Amur Falcons crossing oceans without rest for days, and Nilgiri Tahrs ruling mountain escarpments like a kingdom above the clouds.
Perhaps we are the last generation to witness many of these wonders in the wild. The Earth is losing biodiversity at a pace never seen before and with every disappearance, something ancient, irreplaceable and deeply alive fades away forever.
Biodiversity is Earthโs heartbeat. The moment it begins to fade, the planet will slowly forget how to breathe.
If we want a future, we must help the Earth breathe again. We already know what to do. Letโs do it. Protect. Conserve. Cherish.
Happy #BiodiversityDay @UNBiodiversity #LocalAction #KMGBF #IDB2026 #ForNature
A delivery agent dropped off food, noticed a cricket bat outside the door, and paused for a few seconds to play shadow cricket before leaving.
Sometimes, unfulfilled dreams quietly survive in moments like these!!!
History is baroque, said Will & Ariel Durant, breaking our rules, defying patterns.
Yet, within its twists, they note, we learn patience & even respect for each otherโs delusions...
โThe present is the past rolled up for action, and the past is the present unrolled for understanding.โ
Will & Ariel Durant, The Lessons of History
Therapy often works in exactly this way.

We revisit the past not to remain trapped in it, but to understand the patterns, wounds, fears, and meanings that quietly shape our present choices.
Insight changes action.
And changed action slowly reshapes the future.

Luxury today is no longer just about ownership. It is about scarcity, status signaling, online hype, and the fear of missing out.
The launch became less about timepieces and more about collective frenzy. Fascinating and very unsettling too!

Fascinating human behavior !
A โน40,000 watch launch causing riots, police intervention, store shutdowns, overnight camping, and resale madness tells us something fascinating about modern consumer psychology.
@AnunayaTandon It is perhaps the great tragedy of current times that there is less time & energy invested in human relationships, under the reasoning that there is always some other goal oriented pursuit that is ever 'so much more important'.

Adult friendships rarely end with closure.
No fight. No dramatic goodbye. Just slower replies, postponed plans, and versions of ourselves quietly drifting apart.
Perhaps one of adulthoodโs deepest griefs is losing people who once knew our inner world by heart.
In a hyperconnected age, loneliness has simply become quieter.
Found this well articulated piece by IPS officer Pranav Jain.

As a mental health professional, I strongly agree with @divyamittal_IAS on the importance of the skills she has highlighted. These are not optional life skills anymore. We need to consciously embed them into our education system & parenting practices with urgency and seriousness.
IIT Delhi to IIM Bangalore to IAS. I got the best education my country had to offer. It taught me how to crack tough exams and manage big responsibilities. But it never taught me how to quiet my own mind or handle loneliness. We spend many years learning how to achieve, but not a single day learning how to be happy.
My thoughts on what is missing in school education.
Emotional Regulation:
We memorized the periodic table, but no one explained the chemistry of a broken heart. School demanded we stay quiet, confusing silence with peace. Now, we don't know how to host our own storms without drowning in them. We feel lost because we were taught to suppress, not to process.
Deep Communication:
We were taught to write perfect essays, but not how to say "Iโm hurting" or "No." While there is a strong emphasis on communication, we are not taught the vocabulary of the adult life. There is no course on how to stand our ground in face of bullying by a boss or how to protect our work boundaries by saying 'No'
Critical Thinking:
In school, the person with the most answers won. In life, the person with the most questions survives. This is the reason many adults can repeat opinions confidently without ever questioning where those opinions came from. We are told everything as the gospel truth. So we end up just following blindly
Financial Literacy:
We spent years learning maths and solving for x, but never learned how to keep ourselves from falling in a debt trap. Money isn't just about math; itโs about the dignity of choice. We do not learn how to use debt effectively without it controlling our freedom. How impulsive spending compounds over time, or how money affects stress, relationships, and mental peace. Financial literacy is missing because education often focuses on earning money someday, not managing it wisely once it arrives.
Self-Discipline
School is a world of bells and schedules. Someone else always tells you what to do and when. But adulthood is a world of total silence. We feel stuck because we were never taught how to push ourselves without a teacher watching. Discipline is simply the habit of keeping promises to yourself. This is a habit many of us are lacking
Handling Loneliness
In school, you are always shrouded by people. You never realize how loud the silence of adulthood can be until youโre in it. We feel lonely because we weren't taught how to be our own best friends. Peace is learning that being alone doesn't mean being lonely. It is a sacred space, not a sign of being unwanted.
Reading People
School is a time of innocence where friendships are often given to you. But as we go along, not everyone retains that purity. We feel cheated because we weren't taught to see the hidden intentions or the masks people wear. Reading people is the quiet wisdom of seeing the truth behind the words.
Mental Health Maintenance
We have gym class for our bodies, but nothing for our souls. We are taught to push through exhaustion to finish a project, which is exactly how we end up in burnout. Honoring your nervous system is the only way to make sure the light inside you doesn't go out. We should know when we are dealing with a stressor and unable to handle it anymore. We should know when to reach out for help if we feel that we are drowning in that distress
Knowing Yourself
We spend years trying to be the "best" student, only to realize we don't know who we are without a gold medal. We are left inadequate because we studied every subject except our own souls. The ultimate education is discovering what truly matters to you before the world tells you what to want.
