“Life goes on…” -By Sabila



It happens so, that many a times we build those picture perfect images in our minds, and believe we actually can design our lives. We imagine situations and then pre decide on how to react on them. What we basically forget is the stark reality of ruthless life. Our lives are never what we assume them to be. The moment where we thought we’re going to act like what we had decided or say what we so much wish to, is just in our heads and is never going to turn real. This difference between what we hope and what actually happens in our lives out of the cocoon becomes the root cause of discontent. The best way to be at peace with oneself is to humbly accept life as it comes.

BOOK REVIEW: CUCKOLD (By Shreya Mudgil)



 
Kiran Nagarkar’s Cuckold (1997) has been heralded as the best novel by an Indian by Khushwant Singh.
The novel is set in the early sixteenth century, in the kingdom of Mewar and follows the life of its Maharaj Kumar, the heir apparent. Historically rich in its content and showcasing the wars and political upheavals of the time, nothing compares to the personal life of the Maharaj Kumar. Married to none other than Meera, one of the biggest devout of Lord Krishna in the history of India, Maharaj Kumar competes against a God for the love and attention of his wife.
