    Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?
    View all responses

    If you start picking certain aspects to tie with a person uniqueness, it is a never ending list. Each person has their own way to react, respond from the time of birth and in different stages of life. Uniqueness is a myth. Internally, everyone is the same. People strive to succeed in life. They earn to make the day better and their future better.

    If I link a person’s characteristics with their uniqueness, I bet someone else in the world has the same traits. In every stage of life, we meet people who made an impact on our lives. We justify this impact as the uniqueness in them. We fail to understand it is us who are evolving and changing. This indirectly makes us find the different traits as unique features in them.

    We want to be unique from others to step ahead. If we continue with that mindset, no one will match your level of mentality. No one will share your traits. You would feel that all others are just wasting their life. You have this special power which makes you so unique from others.

    Each person has their own evils within. They paint themselves as someone different in front of others just to be unique. Why do we have to do this :

    1. “Your family does not support you, ah may be I have some problem let me re-adjust myself to be unique and better to them”
    2. “I have no friends, ah let me try to fit into a group by a make over to attract some”.

    If we really want to be unique, we should acknowledge that we are complex humans. Treat ourselves the same way as a growing plant. A plant needs continuous nurturing. Its traits change and adapt according to the weather to become a strong flourishing tree. It is hard to acknowledge this but as I say in all of my writings, one day at a time. Give ourselves a 5 minute and just be us.

    To me, not to be unique is blessing in disguise. No one to poke or no one to compete with, you are just competing with yourself.

    What makes you laugh?
    View all responses

    What makes me laugh !!. This made me to think over. It is very easy for someone to make me laugh. But, is it a wholehearted laugh or a fake one? It’s hard to solve that puzzle.

    There is always a smile on my face greeting who ever comes on the way. My face is very much expressive, its like my whole face dances with the expressions along. So if some one does make me laugh , it is going to get contagious and spread across. From what I can think over, the best laugh you can get out of me is when I am angry. If you succeed in making me laugh when I am angry, it will be a true laugh. That is the only real laugh I would have. With tears coming out of my eyes, nose vibrating and light noise turning to wider one slowly.

    What makes me laugh when I’m angry is unclear to me. Sometimes it is just the prediction of what I would say next. Other times, it is just the mimic of what I look like. From the people I have been friends with, one thing am sure , am a fan of sarcastic jokes. So anything which is sarcastic and if it gets clicked, you can see a wide smile on my face.

    When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?

    As fake as it sounds, I wanted to work with computers 😁😁😁. The usual question any teacher would ask was what do you want to be!! And my answer varied as I grew up but the one particular when i was less than 10 yrs was to work with computers in an office type set up.

    And why ?? My dad worked as a BSNL telecom assistant and his work started from the morse code era of typewriters to windows xp computers. Since my parents were both working, after school the routine was to send me to one of their working places. So it was a habit of sitting beside dad who used to keep on typing in computers and be busy. And am there sitting like I want to do this when I grow up. Sit inside the AC chamber , keep on typing something and people will come to you for the work you do.

    I did not know that it was called a software engineer at that time, trust me 😁. Now I am in that dream job where everybody hates to sit in that AC room.

    Funny story aside , I had to become a scientist , doctor and many others as i grew further but landed to that little girls fantasy job at the end which is not at all fantasy 🤪

    What’s something most people don’t understand?

    Have you been in a situation where with all of your ego you say I do not need anyone for this , I can do it myself. I have been, trust me its hard , its a mental suicide if you are saying just for your ego.

    I think what people do not understand is , when you are in deep shit your mind just does not know how to come out of it. Do the incredible pep talk or engage your mind with some other bullshit, nothing helps at all. But lets say you randomly call that one friend and express, no matter the solution or reasoning the person gives be dumb but to even think that it is dumb your mind needs to relax 😃.

    The 8 minute theory is so true. When you are in deepest trouble and in a rat hole where you feel I am done, the best thing is to give a call to someone you trust. It can be anyone, you may not have friends but trust me you will be surprised to see there will always be one person who will be there. So the 8 minute theory states that whenever you need help, just say that you need 8 minutes of their time or anything that suits your situation. You just need 8 minutes to be in a safe position, there is no promise that you will come out of the situation but you will do alright and that itself is a blessing.

    That one call where you feel a regret with happiness. You know what I mean, that one decision where you took which did not turn out as you expected but the outcome gave you happiness. Sometime regrets are beautiful. You get to know what was supposed to happen in delayed mode but when it happens , you kind of feel the regret but with the happiness. Regrets are always attached to a negative meaning but why does it always have to be negative !!

    Life is so dramatic, it gives you happiness when you least look for it and it throws you challenges when you are not at all ready for it. Inbetween of these are those cute happy moments where you love the decisions taken with a bit of regret but with more happiness on why you did what you did!!!

    Days can feel heavier or harder but finding these little happy moments between these days, is what we are living for right? ❤️

    Finding love in your daily life

    How has technology changed your job?
    View all responses

    I am part of the generation who had no mobile phones until school ended. We then received keypad mobiles with just a few features. These included snake games, a calculator, and the ability to make calls. Now here we are with a 6 to 7 inch screen mobile. This device almost does the work that a laptop or computer would have done at those times.

    Crazy right how technology shifts !!. I joined the software or the IT club of the millennial generation. The concept of technology in jobs was simple. It involved some manual work. There were also prestigious developers coding all the time. Unfortunately I was into manual work which then at that time was a great work to sustain in the industry. And then fast forward two years , manual work comes to a halt and people move towards automation. I moved along with it !!! Then all of a sudden there is data everywhere and you land to big data job. When I got the big data job, I thought I could turn anything I touch to gold. I was crazily optimistic.

    Again here we are talking , eating and writing AI AI AI and AI. People are getting laid off left and right in the name of AI. Over time, I might also shift in that direction. There is a saying: “Change is the only Constant.” I need to have another choice in mind if I become rigid and stick to what I do. This is important if I get kicked out for not staying in current. It’s like how Nokia lost in the game of Android.

    So until I know what lies in future, I am happily enjoying the work. I am also reading upon the hype of AI to catch up whenever needed.

    What is your favorite type of weather?

    It is a mix of mist and soft cold which will feel like heaven for me. The not so cold but just gives the gist of it and the warmth you feel while you have a hot cup of coffee.

    The weather which can bring me peace and some thoughts in mind to scribble, that’s my favorite one. The weather where I can get up and then walk in those roads or parks with a sweater around. The cozy weather is my kind of weather.

    One of the scribbling blaming the weather : https://rachanakilingar.com/2021/08/27/blame-the-weather/

    Thought of sharing my favourite lyrics of one of the hindi songs for this year’s poetry day. Here it goes …

    Maanaa ki hum yaar nahin, lo tay hai ki pyaar nahin
    Maanaa ki hum yaar nahin, lo tay hai ki pyaar nahin
    Phir bhee nazaren naa tum milaanaa, dil ka etbaar nahin
    Maanaa ki hum yaar nahin
    Raste main jo milo to haath milaane ruk janaa
    Ho saath mein koyi ho tumhaare door se hee tum muskana
    Lekin muskaan ho aisee ki jismein iqraar nahin
    Lekin muskaan ho aisee ki jismein iqraar nahin
    Nazaron se naa karnaa tum bayaan vo jisase inkaar nahin
    Maanaa ki hum yaar nahin
    Phool jo band hai panno mein tum usko dhul bana denaa
    Baath chhid jo meri kaheen, tum usko “bhool” bataa denaa
    Lekin vo bhool ho aisee jisse bezaar nahin
    Lekin vo bhool ho aisee jisse bezaar nahin
    Too jo soe to meri tarah ek pal ko bhee qaraar nahin
    Maanaa ki hum yaar nahin

    ❤️‍🩹

    The sweetness with pain within words is so soothing to listen to and understand in the above lyrics. I loved the song , the acting and the movie because it was based on the art of writing. Every song I listen to, my first thing to do would be understanding the lyrics. If it’s deep , i get so addicted to it. Oh by the way if anyone’s interested this is from the movie “Meri Pyari Bindu” with lead cast Ayushman and Parineeti. And the main, song writers were Kausar Munir / Sachin Jigar, a big shout out on writing beautifully and expressing aptly on the situation. Not to forget , how melodious the writer’s intentions are put into voice by Parineeti and Sonu Nigam , which touches the soul and takes you to a different world.

  • Best Compliment

    What was the best compliment you’ve received?

    I kind of run away from compliments. I do not know what to answer in that situation 😅. But till date it might be many and I will not be able to make one of them win as best. Each person you meet has a different way to understand us and by that it means they have new things to discover in our attitude or work to compliment. 

    Some compliment to boost our mood or energy like our parents who will always have one or the other compliments about their son or daughter even if they fight with you. Some compliment genuinely for a variety of aspects in you like your friends. Some randomly give the compliment like a stranger passing by saying , your dress looks great on you.

    Truth is we all internally want compliments but do not know how to receive it and also how to react to it. The funny part is silence wins here most of the time, since the response or reaction end up in making people look at us like “oh really !!! 😏”. The scary part is to differentiate fake and genuine compliments because a fake one can make the life of person hell one day.
