One day I'll soar!

Penned this poetry during the recovery phase, this year (2022), in March.


Have a look at it..

Giggling on the face, 

Yet damaged at the core;

Fighting for life,  and still...

Dreaming, ''One day I'll soar!''


Eyes on the other, 

Groaning with fear;

Recalling the days, 

When they were full of tears.


A sparkling hope of new breath, 

Urging me to stand up again;

And a fire of fierce reprisal inside, 

Making me realise of my own worth - day and night.

TERRITORY : A GLIMPSE FROM BANDHAVGARH

JUNGLE LINES : ''Where the Forest Knows Who Belongs'' - Anshika Chaturvedi     Spending time with nature always fascinates me. What fascinates me is not just its beauty, but its silence, its rhythm, and its raw honesty. Actually my recent trip to Bandhavgarh made me realise the true essence of nature. The journey wasn't just a safari; it was a lesson in life, boundaries and coexistence. During my stay at the resort nestled near the forest edge, something changed within me. That evening, that guard quietly shared a story- A tiger had once crossed into the resort and stepped into the swimming pool to drink water. On another day, I heard tales of an elephant entering the village, causing panic and injuries. Yet amidst all this unpredictability, the forest never felt threatening, it felt real. I found myself letting go of past worries and future plans, and simply living in the moment. I remember sitting alone for almost two hours, surrounded by green silence, talking to...

कैलाश - एक शक्ति!

 “ कैलाश - जहाँ भटके कदम ठहर जाते हैं, और अंधेरों में भी दीप जल जाते हैं। ”  - अंशिका चतुर्वेदी Pinterest पृथ्वी-गगन के बीच ठहरता है स्वप्न अनोखा, "धुरी" जहाँ से ब्रह्माण्ड का सारा विस्तार है; समय-स्थान का संगम रुककर देता सन्देश, मन में जैसे मौन शांति का आधार है! रहस्यों से भरा है यह पावन अद्भुत धाम, जहाँ विज्ञान भी हार गया अनेकों बार; हर तर्क यहाँ मौन हो जाता निष्काम, हर उत्तर गिरता, टूटता बार-बार! एक ओर है मानसरोवर- निर्मल, शांत, स्थिर, जिसका स्पर्श आत्मा को पवित्र कर जाए; हथेली पर जैसे थाम लिया कोई चित्र, जहाँ हर लहर जीवन को नया अर्थ दिलाए! दूसरी ओर आधे चाँद-सी गहरी झील, जिसमें अंधकार और खारापन समाया; जीवन के अभाव का नीरव, सुनसान सिलसिला मानो दुःख का सागर वहीं ठहराया! दोनों ही विपरीत रूप- सुख और दुःख के रंग, मानव जीवन का शाश्वत प्रतिबिम्ब बनते हैं; एक रोशन दीप, एक अंधियारे का संग, ये पर्वत के रहस्य युगों से सुनते हैं! वह अडिग शिला, जिसमें शिव का वास है, जिस पर अरबों प्रार्थनाएँ सफल रहीं; किंतु जो चढ़ने चला, वह पीड़ा का दास है, धरती पर लौट आया- थका, और टूटा कहीं! क्या च...

WHEN TRUMP TAXED FRIENDSHIP

''WHEN ONE MARKET CLOSES,  INDIA HAS THE POWER TO OPEN A HUNDRED MORE'' - Anshika Chaturvedi Source : Hindustan Times TRUMP'S TARIFF STORY:  A TALE OF EGO AND SHORT SIGHTEDNESS The Trump tariff saga did not begin as an economic necessity, it began as a political drama. Many analysts trace its roots back to episodes like ''Operation Sindoor'', when Trump felt sidelined because the credit of ceasefire diplomacy did not go his way. What followed was less about economics and more about ego. Trump wanted to be seen as a global dealmaker, even a Nobel Peace Prize candidate in Norway’s eyes. But instead of peace-building, he chose the path of confrontation, especially through tariffs. Trump’s approach to India was deeply flawed. He wanted India to open its markets for dairy products, genetically modified crops, and agricultural goods from the U.S. But what would that mean for India? It would directly hurt India’s farmers, endanger youth health with GM produ...
