Thinking Youth

Voyaging through the blogosphere-1

Ok The first blog i have picked up and is about to be ripped..:-) is called Thinking youth created by a bunch of authors leaded by Mr.Sam it seems.
Lets look into wat it all has to offer
First lets chek some stats
Blog Title - Thinking youth
Blog Url - http://thinkingyouth.blogspot.com
Authors - Aashi,sam,gini,kuntal and rashmi
genre - society,welfare
created - April 2007
So the title seems to be quite intresting,frankly speaking it was the title that drew my attention to this blog.The theme too is quite intresting it reads "This blog is meant to reflect the thoughts of todays youth regarding the issues which we feel plagues the world around us. It can be anything..... anything at all!"
A simple line conveys it all...so now i peep into the posts
They have manged 8 posts uptil the formation of my report,not a very great quantity since the blog is running since april 2007 and there wasnt any post in the month of may and also with 5 authors in the block and a very relevant theme they could have manged more posts.Also i would like to point out that only 2 out of the 5 authors have actually posted,which is slighlty disappointing.
The good news however is the quantity is excellent,even in this brief amount of
posts they have covered diverse topics ranging from issues regarding child abuse to womanhood and even handicapped people.The posts child abuse and curse me i am crippled [Both written by Sam] were the best according to me.The post by aashi- What do moms want...?? Scholars in Diapers is also an excellent attempt as it manages to uncover a serious problem arising in a very light manner.rest all of them were good and there is not any post which i can say was junk or was out of the context.Basically all the posts quite fit into the theme of the blog.
All in all a good read for all the people working for social welfare and also good for other netizens too,but only who are intrested in some serious and mind raking reading.An excellent job done by sam and aashi may god give them the strength
to continue this noble mission.
A piece of advice for the authors:invite more co-authors to your blogs,u are on a wonderful mission and i suppose u will need more company,secondly be as consistent as you can and thirdly keep up this great work
Next blog to be reviewed: Well... by Musical Misery at http://mesakshi.blogspot.com/

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Epitome of Equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
