I bunked college today, missed my presentations and assignment submissions, and went on a road trip with my friends to Fort Tikona. I kept thinking of my classmates, who are currently sitting inside four walls, learning, growing and educating themselves for a professional life ahead. But as I drove towards Lonavala, sitting amongst three Indian Naval officers, listening to their conversations about India, China and the US defence forces, I wondered if this isn't learning as well?

Self Love Doesn't Come Easy, But It's Worth Every Effort

All good things come to those who try.

Self love.

Two words. And so much to unfold within them.

You probably find these two words plastered all across the internet, in motivational paragraphs and inspirational quotes. You've probably come across several articles on all the wonderful ways to go about loving yourself. In fact, I know I've written quite a few myself.

Perhaps you're someone who doesn't quite understand what the whole hullabaloo about self love is, and see it as yet another hipster trend millenials just go on about. Or perhaps you're someone who has taken the time and patience to master it, and now devote a good amount of your time in making sure you find new ways to love yourself.

Why Falling In Love With A Not-So-Cliched Romantic Can Be A Blessing

Romance doesn't have to be complicated.

Finding an ideal life partner is tough, some even call it impossible.

And I'm not being a pessimist here, but let's face it: over a lifetime, you meet a bunch of people who turn out to be wrong choices. While growing up, I used to idolise picture-perfect couples who have been with each other for ages. But once you enter adulthood, reality hits you right in the face. What if I keep looking for a guy with my precious list of qualities and I never find him? What if my whole idea of romance is wrong? And what if there never was such a thing as a 'happy couple'?

Do you need me? Do you think I'm pretty? Do I make you feel like cheating?

Relationships are tricky and can go downhill pretty fast, especially when there are pesky little doubts in either of the partner's minds.

So do yourself a favour and just avoid asking anything related to what is mentioned below.

8 Things Millennials Think Are No Big Deal (But Our Parents Think Otherwise)

Yikes, us.

I sort of don't blame our peeps for not entirely getting us, because let's face it, we are a tough crowd to understand and handle. Having earned the tag of a generation who changes its mind in a fraction of a second and believes in living life on their own terms, our parents are bound to go nuts with some of our habits.

Their upbringing has been all about following rules, acting conventionally and never questioning the elders. While ours is completely the opposite, therefore here are a few things that I bet every Indian Parent can't stand:

10 Things All Single Career Driven Women Secretly Want But Don't Say

We just want to be loved.
http://www.hindustantimes.com
