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.

7 uncomfortable truths as real estate dawns at Shivalik Kandi Hills

Punjab real estate is quietly rewriting the future of the Shivalik Kandi Hills. While headlines chase the Aravallis, this fragile ecological buffer faces illegal farmhouses, policy shifts, and elite-driven development. This research-based narrative uncovers facts, forgotten laws, citizen resistance, and the real cost of eco-friendly constructions that may not be as green as they sound. You think real estate stories are about price and profit, until you realise this one is about rivers, forests, and who gets to bend the law. Read, question, and share before silence becomes policy. Are we watching Punjab real estate grow at the cost of its last green shield? Have you ever stood at the edge of a quiet forest and felt a strange calm, the kind that makes your breathing slow down without permission? I felt that calm once in the Shivalik Kandi Hills. It did not come from luxury or comfort. It came from the land itself. Today, that calm feels fragile, almost borrowed. Punjab re...
