Sleep Scarcity

A much dreaded week it was for the people all over the world. And yes people actually did lose their sleep. I had to rewrite this article several times, as it wasn't coming up to the mark. So I've no idea ultimately how it'll turn out. Better brace yourselves as I didn't get proper sleep, so this isn't what you all actually deserve but you will get it anyway. Somehow, that reminded me of Trump; anyone?? On one hand we are boxed in with positive COVID-19 cases surrounding us. Nation under lockdown which keeps on getting extended, food scarce, people unemployed, state government suppressing cases. People like me sitting at home showcasing our talents, while the poor bearing the brunt. Fear of death is snatching away everyone's sleep. The insomniac community suffers a lot already on normal days. This was pretty much the breaking point for them, myself included.

Yes I know falling asleep is difficult when you think of conquering the world by finishing all your pending works as long as you are unable to sleep,...

Abandoned Amidst Ruins by Amphan!!

I won't lie by saying that I understand the plight of the poor and helpless and what they faced in the massive super cyclone that was Amphan. When it roared past West Bengal, and parts of Orissa in India it reduced everything on it's path to ruins and brought life to a standstill even till several days later, also in the metropolitan city of Kolkata. So I can't falsely claim I feel them and can imagine their loss as life will never be the same for the people who feel abandoned amidst ruins and are still helpless. Some lost everything they possibly could ever own or have. There is nothing left of Sundarbans. But I can claim one thing with certainty. This massive storm taught me quite a few things. Let's see if you do find it useful. Before the lockdown even began I visited my college last on 18th March for some work which I had there. There is this massive tree [inset below is a screenshot of my Instagram story as I don't have the original picture; ...
