Monday smooth sailing. Have a great week you people... despite other people and the Govt. around you. 😁 A tiny wish as you scroll. 🌸 #wish #regards #week #ahead #monday #hopeful #goodness (at Indiranagar) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6aIXYfFlrQ/?igshid=17812cq602ef7

Monday got me thinking of some of my silly people in Bangalore. IDK why. (at Bangalore, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lM1ncFDme/?igshid=1niliuni9nacq

'Beti padhaao, Beti bachao' Jitni bhi beti padhao, India ke Bete toh lucchey, chutiye jaanwar hi rahengey. BETON PE FOCUS KARO... Desh barbaad kar ke duniya ke saamney apna halat utar chukey hain. ~ There is a well known campaign for the girl child of India 'Beti padhao, Beti bachao' which translates into " Educate the girl child and save her".... But that only solves a small part of a girl's plight in India. Education and Safety are different problems. We need to address both, urgently. An educated girl child, surrounded by desperate, entitled, sex hungry, patriarchal monsters that Indian men are... How far can she fight? Education didn't save Dr Priyanka Reddy. Those men RAPED HER & BURNT HER BODY. She was just trying to get home. EDUCATE AND CIVILISE THE MEN, INDIA AND THE WORLD. THAT IS THE NEED OF THE HOUR. Everyone is aware of the self-entitled, patriarchal and sex hungry Indian men, the worst in the world. India was ranked the most dangerous country for a woman to live in 2018. And it's not getting any better. And DON'T say "Not all men" now... control and educate your friends, you idiotic morons. If you are a part of porn groups on whatsapp, and exchanging stuff that arouses your friends... YOU ARE A 100% PART OF HIS CRIME. You are a part of whatever crime he has committed to a child, a woman or a man... that he will never tell you. Or maybe you are so evil that you are that man. You discuss it with pride. You have committed his filthy crime. YES ALL MEN! #DrPriyankaReddy #IndiasDaughtersRapedEveryday #NobodywantstobeIndiasDaughter #because #IndiasSonsAreRapistMonsters #incredible #unsafe #india #indianchild #unsafe #patriarchy #kills #civilise #the #men #boys #make #the #world #better #focus #on #the #boys #character #hypocrisy #will #not #work https://www.instagram.com/p/B5emcoaFkZV/?igshid=118omub4p2pkb

Today the country is in a standstill. People are glued in to their TVs and phones. Ayodhya / Babri masjid case escalated in 1992, but of course, the country has been torn by religious wars since centuries. Let's call it a territory, as a country is a flexible concept. But as a country now, this is our priority. Climate crisis is looming dangerously over the country, not just the country, but the world. Delhi is surely the most polluted city in the world. They say it's second to Beijing, but that's taking into account only the air particles. If you combine the land pollution with the air pollution, Delhi will surpass every other city. One cannot deny it. Just breathing the air is like smoking 50 cigarettes apparently. And Delhi is the grand capital of the country. Like a cruel joke, school children from many schools were made to run on the streets for a 'climate campaign'. Let's remember that children are the most susceptible to breathing issues, due to the heavy particles being suspended in their height, in the polluted city. Sensationalism is a priority but Pollution isn't. Nor is 'Overpopulation', which is the root cause of all the symptoms we are addressing - Climate change, Plastic crisis and Pollution. The system we have set in place, is killing us. A few free radicals might not win, unless the system is radicalised. The priorities need to change. Let's remember, when we join our hands in prayer... towards any 'God'... we inhale the same Air and exhale prayers. We wash our hands with the same Water, the Land we walk on has a million steps by all religions and atheists too. Pop stars, Porn stars and Political stars will continue to find new ways to distract and entertain us. Make you forget about your poisonous air and dirty scams. Days will pass. We will still need the same basic resources, despite all our different ideologies. We have to prioritize. ------ Pictured above is a tree being cut in the middle of Indiranagar (supposedly a part of conscious old town Bangalore) I don't know for what reason. It surely didn't look dead to me. I was absolutely sad. But people with money can do things, cuz Money is today's highest ranking God. https://www.instagram.com/p/B4ouKjbFxk0/?igshid=on7dgo8by6v

How I look at Life. How Life rolls over and looks back at me. 😅 This is an awkward pic, but I love it. 🌸 We talk about leisure & retirement plans, but I don't think we ever do retire. So... this is how I want my life to look like, honestly. Just a random Tuesday post. An attempt at regularly posting. * felt cute might delete later* pic. 😬 #green #grass #warm #sunshine #little #joys #blessed #tenzigang #random #stops #roadtrip #how #Life #looks #at #you https://www.instagram.com/p/B3pMq3SFfN0/?igshid=1dl7jfq1jesd

'I paint flowers so they will not die.' - This quote is attributed to Frida Kahlo who was born on this day in 1907. She has now become a cultural icon for her fearless & eclectic political statements of cultural identity, nationalism & feminism. ~ My first post. 🌸 Wanted to start this account on a colourful note. This quote resonates so much with me... I capture tons of pictures of flowers because I really love them. I'd like each one to live forever. At least in my pictures, they will. (I mostly pick fallen flowers, & avoid plucking them.) Aren't they one of the best things on Earth?

I've always been fascinated by Dragonflies, been seeing a lot of them lately. (Phone pics in low light) They say it's good luck if one lands on you & in some cultures it represents Change, Adaptability & Self-realization. I read up some cool facts & wanted to share : - Dragonflies can control Mosquito populations! 🙌 A single dragonfly can eat 30 to hundreds of mosquitoes per day. In their larval stage, dragonflies are aquatic & eat just about anything—tadpoles, mosquitoes, fish, other insect larvae and even each other. - A dragonfly called the Globe Skimmer has the longest migration of any insect—11,000 miles back and forth across the Indian Ocean. - Modern dragonflies have wingspans of only two to five inches, but fossil dragonflies have been found with wingspans of up to two feet. - Dragonflies are expert fliers & eat the prey while flying. If they can’t fly, they’ll starve. They can move each of their four wings independently from the others & fly straight up & down, hover like a helicopter & even mate mid-air. 😎 - Dragonflies can intercept a prey mid air. Hunting efficiency 90 - 95% of the prey released into their enclosure. (Harvard study) 🙏 - Lifespan : a few weeks upto a year depending on the type. - They have incredible vision that encompasses almost every angle except right behind them. 👀 ~ The wings, look at those delicate translucent wings, with tiny veins in them. 😍👌👌 Nature is damn crazy & beautiful. 🙏 #dragonfly #evening #skygazing #blurry #phone #pics #nature #is #beyond #awesome #curiosity #what #an #insect #latepost #goodnight https://www.instagram.com/p/ByYXyZBlCUC/?igshid=s3w9j5s8n4u4

There are all kinds of love in this world, but never the same love twice. - F. Scott Fitzgerald . It was very cold, a day after the snowstorm. I was in line, for the restroom, it was urgent. This spot was far behind in the queue. My SIM stopped working & I was unreachable. I was very anxious. The door opened and a cleaning lady came out with garbage bags and I saw this behind her. After three seconds the door closed. It was very calming, as I caught a peek from my spot in that queue. It was a moment. I wanted a pic. Rather awkward, but I took permission to peek into her tiny room/closet sort of space. The woman smiled, quite amused. . That was a spot for love, for beauty, gentleness & care. The rose could be a from a stranger, coworker, lover, friend or family. It could have been discarded. But it was hinged there, like a reminder. . I hope you cherish the small moments of all the different sorts of love you receive, through Life. 🌸 . Love and Light. 💜 #love #reminders #random #moment #gratitude #cherish #subway #travel #restroom #queue #ladies #valentine #simple #moments #timeslikethese #resilience #penn #station #nyc (at Penn Station, Manhattan, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt4Tgd_lC82/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=liglnqw5zfxb

I have known Lovers, Friends and wonderful Humans, not Criminals. It's never a crime to be yourself, to express your nature..to have love for another, regardless of gender. It makes me so happy that our Indian law has finally recognised Humanity, and the diversity in Nature. . . . On 6th September 2018, the Indian Supreme Court decriminalised Homosexuality. The court clubbed 35 petitions from different activists and passed a historic judgement stating that using the section of the IPC to victimize homosexuals was unconstitutional, and henceforth, a criminal act. There has always been awareness of LGBTQ members in the Indian Society.. Their tales appearing in rituals & folklore. Abolishing Section 377 gives them an equal rights, equal citizenship, the essence of freedom and dignity. The law was also a remanent of India's colonial history, so this move is a confirmation of a changing India, a movement towards a bold and diverse country.💖 Grateful to all the activists & judges who made this possible, who chose Humanity above all. We must all be Thankful. 💐🌺🌹 Congratulations for the historic win! 🎉 'History owes an apology to the members of this community and their families, for the delay in providing redressal for the ignominy and ostracism that they have suffered through the centuries. The members of this community were compelled to live a life full of fear of reprisal and persecution. This was on account of the ignorance of the majority to recognise that homosexuality is a completely natural condition, part of a range of human sexuality.' - Justice Indu Malhotra #loveislove #377 #ipc #lgbtq #pride #humanity #nature #law #decriminalize #homosexuality #work #towards #acceptance #love #compassion https://www.instagram.com/p/Bna7s3QBCtd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pyhze8h3s45o
