IN CHARGE WHO DOES NOT HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY

I wonder why someone is called an "in charge" when they lack social responsibility. A lovely apartment complex (Mars and Venus Apartments, Ladyhill) here in Mangalore, with more than a hundred flats, does not have a proper team of committee members to manage the association. One gentleman calls himself an authorized person or an "in charge," yet he shows no social responsibility or public interest.

In this ego-driven society, there are people who neither help others nor allow anyone else to help. Those who are clueless about management become managers, and those who lack leadership skills become leaders. The unacceptable fact is that they don’t even let capable people manage or lead.

When I had to meet a so-called responsible person to discuss my interest in raising awareness (on tiger conservation and saving nature) and sharing knowledge, I was denied permission to put a small piece of information on the notice board—a notice that wouldn’t cost anyone a thing.

There are selfish people in this world who want a tiger enthusiast like me to stop my work and instead join their NGO, which has no connection to nature or wildlife conservation. Denying permission to conduct free awareness programs on tigers, wildlife, and nature in an apartment complex with over a hundred households is something I have never encountered before. This clearly reflects the so-called "in charge’s" lack of social responsibility—not just him, but many other selfish, brainless people who don’t care about the environment or allow anyone else to create awareness.

What harm could possibly come from putting up a notice that reads, "Free awareness program for children," inviting them to a talk on saving nature and wildlife conservation? People who have no authority to block such initiatives should not call themselves "in charge" or president. They should be ashamed of denying support for a social cause.

This isn’t an isolated case. Many such people exist in our country, and because of them, our environment is neither secure nor safe.

Denying permission in one apartment won’t stop me from spreading awareness about wildlife and tiger conservation among children and the community. This is just the beginning—there’s much more to achieve.

Tomorrow, My Morning Coffee Will Taste Different

It’s been three weeks since we moved to Vadodara. Every morning since, I’ve unknowingly built a quiet ritual—coffee in hand, eyes on the sky, watching planes take off from Vadodara Airport, which I can see clearly from our balcony. There's something calming about it. Hopeful, even. A small moment of stillness as the world begins to move. But today… today was not like the other days. Around noon, news broke about the Air India crash at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Airport, Ahmedabad. And everything I felt in those quiet, breezy mornings shattered into something heavier, more fragile. It’s strange how suddenly a routine can take on new meaning and how quickly something comforting can start to feel ominous. My husband used to be a frequent flyer to Ahmedabad in the months before we settled down here. I was right there at that same airport with my dad and daughter, barely three weeks ago. I still remember my first visit to Ahmedabad and I wasn’t particularly excited. It felt temporary. ...

Journaling: A Habit That Became a Lifeline

Journaling has been an inseparable part of my life for over 20 years—almost as natural as brushing my teeth or taking a bath. It’s more than just a habit; it has become an obsession. Every day, I capture my thoughts, emotions, and moments, pouring them into the pages of my diary like an old friend who never judges. Growing up, I was an average student, often overlooked in school and college. My parents weren’t the most supportive, and humiliation became a constant companion, especially in front of family, friends, and neighbours. But amidst all of this, my diary remained my refuge, my safe space, and my most loyal friend. During my school and college days, my diary listened when no one else would. It never ridiculed or belittled me. It saw my laughter, my tears, my struggles—it even stopped me from making drastic decisions at times. If not for my diary, I don't know how I would have survived those years. Reliving the Past Through Old Journals Back then, my diary held stories of joy...
