How Struggle Can Bring Out the Best In You

Sindhutai Sapkal: The 'Mother of Orphans' who has adopted over ...

Many people have to struggle in their daily life. The issues of struggle might be big or small. However, none of the struggle stories are less motivating for others to follow. I am not talking here about Ananya Panday's struggle of becoming an actress as we all know that she might have got an easy entry into films as she is the daughter of Chunky Panday. 

I am here talking about real-life struggle stories of common people. I was recently reading a piece about Sindhtai Sapkal who told how struggle brought out the best in her and made her what she is today. Let us discuss her life stroy in brief. I hope everyone will be motivated to do something productive after hearing her story. 

She was married at an early age to a man very old to her and was educated only because her father send her to school after hiding from the eyes of her mother. She faced a difficult life after her marriage but did not lose hope. She fought against all the social issues occurring in her village. At the time when she was pregnant with a girl, her husband abandoned her and she had to beg at the railway station for her and her child's survival. 

She lived in cemeteries so that nobody can put a bad eye on her and people started calling her a ghost. She was not accepted at her mother's house and begged people for food where she saw many abandoned kids and started begging for them so that she can feed everyone. She became a mother for those who were orphans and gave her own daughter in an orphanage so that she is impartial towards the child and all other children. 

She was awarded different awards at various times and also participated in Kaun Banega Crorepati. Her story was recently shown by Colgate Smile campaign. Her story is something that can prove an inspiration and show how struggle brought out the best person in her. Common people should follow her footsteps and change the world in different ways according to their capabilities.

How online education is proving to be the biggest failure in India

As we all know that the schools have been closed due to COVID 19 pandemic and the students have been taking online classes from the last few months. Online classes are becoming the biggest failures in India. Some of the reasons for the failure of online classes are bad internet connectivity. Despite knowing that all the work around the world is being done online, the cellular networks are not increasing their network speed due to which the class gets hampered.  One of the other reasons can be that students do not have a habit to take classes online and that also on laptops and computers. They do not learn until they get scolded or shouted upon. That system has completely led to the failure of the classes as you do not know whether your concepts are clear to the students or not.  The teachers are also facing a lot of issues in taking online classes as all the matter needs to be written well before hand so that the explanation becomes easier. The setting up of the class like env...

Ravi Teja starrer Mr Bachchan releases on OTT

Ravi Teja's action drama movie titled Mr Bachchan which created a lot of hype before its release failed to create magic at the box office. The movie is directed by Harish Shankar and was released in theatres on 15th August this year. The movie is now available on Netflix.  The movie is adapted from Raid where Ajay Devgn played the lead. However, the Telugu version has its own way of showing the film. The movie is about an Income Tax officer played by Ravi Teja who raids the house of a corrupt MP played by Jagapathi Babu.  The film marks the debut of Bhagyashri Borse who plays Teja's love interest, Jikki. Despite the wonderful plot and Ravi Teja's fan following the film could not bring audiences to the theatres. After 27 days of running in the theatres, the film is now available in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada on Netflix.  The film also has Sachin Khedekar, Subhalekha Sudhakar and Satya. The lack of a box office collection of the film also led to a great gesture fr...

National Pepper Pot Day: A dish that won the war

National Pepper Pot Day is celebrated to remember the dish that was nicknamed as the soup which won the war. The day is marked annually on December 29. There was a very terrible and ruthless cold in 1777-1778.  The Continental Army was fighting for the newly formed United States of America during the Revolutionary War. As the soldiers camped at Valley Forge in 1997 on December 29, George Washington asked the chef of the army to make a meal which would warm them and boost their spirits.  The chef took some tripe, pieces of meat, pepper and other ingredients and made Pepper Pot Soup, which was also known as Philadelphia Pepper Pot Soup. The soup was enjoyed by the troops and nicknamed as the soup which won the war. The day can be enjoyed by making Pepper Pot Soup and the recipe of the same is available online.
