It happens ..

If you build them on sea or in the air
One day they will get washed away as you do nothing but stair
I always knew what sand castles were
 
Such, was a castle I build some years ago
Such, was a dream I cultivated some years ago
Such, was a love I'd engraved some years ago
 
I knew the castle wasn't robust enough for the breeze
I made them my celebrations and they buoyed me
 
I knew the castle wasn't durable enough for the current
I made them my heartbeats and they braced me
 
What I didn't know was that sand was not compassionate
It turned out quite destructive The stream came unpredicted
 
But still, my castle hoisted silent
Some wounds it sustained unmoving
 
Who knew that she would raid a thunder
Not knowing it was a blooper
 
The castle is now levelled
The score is now settled
 
I'd called her it was my mistake
I'd made it for her it was my mistake
 
Today I sit on the seaside
Not even a tear still my eyes can leak
 
I'm just another stone now
I'm an indestructible bulk now
 
The bulk that may harm each
The bulk that may ever breach
The bulk that may still reach
 
For the stars, he hoped to preach
For the stars, he hoped to preach...

The Reason

Disclaimer : Y es, this is another note where I am not talking about any person living or dead, the resemblance is neither uncanny nor eerie. Especially politicians or ministers or chiefs, I fear them and I have my reasons. I dare not speak against the ideology the majority is in support of.  This is my first attempt to write something about the future, a dystopian future to be precise. The idea of a dystopian plot is to predict the future bearing in mind current changes. That being said, I think a Zombie apocalypse is the first thing I would have predicted after a global pandemic. Zombies? These slow creatures that are bloodthirsty because they have none, they do not have souls, they do not have minds, they just have greed for blood. I’ve always felt Zombies are closer to greedy, self-centred leaders political or otherwise, who crave just one thing power. More Powar! Pawar over mODIfication over everything names of cities, stations, teams of Shivs’.  - - - - - - - - - - - - -...

Stereotypical

“The law opens all subjects for study. If you are studying a murder case, you will probably have to delve into the science behind poisoning or the physics of the force of a blow to the chest. If you are trying to prove the facts of a matter involving a ticketing service, you might need to study how the programming of a website like MakeMyTrip works. Moreover, law itself often requires the analysis of transactions, thereby bringing in elements of commerce. This interdisciplinary nature of law, which places a lawyer in the shoes of every subject humanly possible, is the reason I chose to pursue it.” This was my response to the professor at ILS Law College when she asked me why I had chosen law. While my peers gave flamboyant answers that seemed to impress her, mine left her in a deep state of shock. Though rehearsed to sound dramatic and appealing, I was well aware that the question would not determine my admission—it was a stereotypical query, after all. From the outset, my decision to ...

From Companions to Responsibility: A legal insight into Caring for animals in India

Pet ownership in India is undergoing a transformative phase, with over 70% of urban couples now choosing pets over childbirth. This societal shift underscores the growing recognition of pets as integral family members, making it essential to have a robust legal framework that outlines the responsibilities of pet owners while safeguarding animal welfare. The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960, along with related byelaws, forms the cornerstone of India’s animal protection laws. Additionally, the Constitution of India addresses animal welfare under its Fundamental Duties and Directive Principles of State Policy. Article 21 of the Constitution extends the right to life to all living beings, including animals, emphasizing their essential role in human survival. Article 48A mandates the state to protect the environment, forests, and wildlife, while Article 51A(g) highlights every citizen’s duty to show compassion towards living creatures. Although these provisions are not directly en...
