Late at midnight, when I engrossed myself in the book as it was the thrilling part of the novel, the doorbell rang, and lights flickered. It frightened me, and a chill ran down my spine. Mustering a little courage, I got up to open the door. I made sure to carry a knife to stay prepared for an attack if required.  I hid the knife behind my back, holding it in my right hand. I unbolted the door and found no one on the door. As I was about to close the door, my eyes fell on a nicely packed box with wrapping paper with a print of my favorite cartoon character, Pooh. It left me baffled, but I picked up the box to take that inside, bolting the door again, ensuring to bolt every latch and lock for safety. Instead of keeping the knife in its place, I rushed to the dining table and kept the box on it. I had an eerie feeling seeing the box because I did not find any note or card on the box. It appeared as if the box stared back at me the way I kept staring at it before deciding to open it. ...

It is the story of the person who was once an insomniac . Four years back, she was struggling with a peaceful sleep. Every night, as she went to bed, she would keep changing sides, finding it difficult to sleep.

January, the year merely started, and Avni, who was back from her much-needed vacation, found the cluttered desk unnoticed for the past month due to work pressure and her episodes of long sitting with her laptop, taking office calls, and working tirelessly. Every morning, she would wake up with a thought to clean the mess and set up her desk. Days passed, but the motivation did not touch her, and her desk kept getting more chaotic. It was the third weekend of the year when she decided to finish her long-pending writing piece. She woke and glanced at her work desk, and her face turned sulky. She cribbed herself for neglecting to declutter her favorite space.  She thumped on the floor out of the bed and walked straight to her desk instead of continuing her morning routine. She saw a pile of books, a laptop, a planner, a journal, papers, and attractive stationary items. The things she would feel proud of appeared messy to her eyes. Without taking herself on a guilt trip, she started t...

  Is the internet a bane or a boon? It is one of the most asked questions of the decade, with the advancements in technology and digitalization of all sorts. Life without the Internet seems vague. With benefits come its drawbacks.  Let me guide you through 6 ways to ensure internet safety at home, school, office, and public places: Be Cautious of What You Click These days one of the most common ways to fall into a trap is to click undesirable links received on mail, messages, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, or any other social media channel. I wonder what if it had a slogan, would it be, "You are just a click away from falling into a trap." It is the main route to cyber scams like your bank account getting vacated with one click or you registering for some loan through a malicious application that can track all your private data, including contacts and bank details. It can happen in cases related to credit cards, a loan EMI, etc.  To prevent this, instead of directly click...
