Still searching? Don’t give up on love, says Simran Mangharam

The unsolicited advice can be exhausting. Loneliness can feel like despair. Remember (and I speak from past experience) there are many like yourself out there.

Wildbuzz: The power of war flowers

The past speaks to us in many and oft-surprising ways. So it is with preserved flowers, sent many crescent moons ago by battling soldiers in letters. Those flowers were little bits of life, beauty and hope, transcending the darkness of humanity’s ugliest and most unhinged hours.

Why bother making resolutions if you cannot keep them?

New Year's resolutions are expressions of hope, but their success record is often patchy. Keeping resolutions simple and breaking them down into small parts can help increase the chances of success. Desperation often leads to resolution and action, so don't give up hope. The author's resolution is to renew her relationship with yoga.

Walking into New Year without resolutions

In fact, deciding upon a start or finish line simply disengages me. However, each person is unique, and despite not being in the ‘resolution’ boat, I can grasp the thrill, motivation and satisfaction of New Year (or any other time-aligned) goals.

New Year resolutions. The term does sound exciting, but alas! I have never set New Year goals. It always seems to me that “karna hoga toh bina New Year bhi kar hi lungi”. And it’s actually true for me. So far whenever I have achieved something, the timing has been arbitrary. (HT Photo)

Spice of Life| Mood & Melody: Of songs that capture human emotions

There are songs which bring you a glimmer of hope during a dark night of despair. Point in case: ‘Kahan tak yeh mann ko andhere challenge, Udaasi bhare din kahin to dhalenge, Kabhi sukh, kabhi dukh yehi zindagi hai, Yeh patjhad ka mausam ghadi do ghadi hai, Naye phool kal phir dagar mein khilenge, Udaasi bhare din kahin to dhalenge’, from the movie Baton Baton Mein (1979)

While I do use my knowledge and training to help these troubled souls, sometimes it’s a different tool that comes in handy – Hindi songs. Songs sometimes capture the emotions of a patient better than anything else. (Getty Images/iStockphoto)
