It is necessary for every one to have a life partner in certain stages of their life. Fortunately many are luckly got their partners life long but unfortunately few have married and lost their partners due to some uncertainty situations and cause of their fate. Few young aged people are getting married after their partner is no more but many remains as same as their partner is no more. There are some privileges that are given to them by the government. Losing a partner is a great loss which makes them to feel low.

International Widows day is observed on June 23 every year . This day is to create awareness among the people about the Widows ,the problems faced by them in this society and to galvanize the support they need. It is very difficult for them to live this life. There are few widows and single parent children are suffering without the basic needs and pack of money.

According to United Nations website, there are over 258 million Widows round the world. In that , one people out of ten are living in extreme poverty. A report says that, in the eastern democratic Republic of Congo, 50 % of women are widows

History of International Widows Day

This day was initiated by The Loomba Foundation to create awareness about the struggles faced by Widows. They decided to mark this day as International Widows Day cause on this day in 1954 Shrimati Pushpa Wati Loomba who was the mother of Lord Loomba became a Widow.

So , Lord Loomba and Cherie Blair, the foundation’s president decided to launch this day on June 23. The first international Widow day was took place in 2005. Only after the sixth international Widow day , other countries started observe this day and events were held in some countries like India, SriLanka, United States, UK , Nepal, Bangladesh, Syria and Kenya.

Then this day was adopted as International Widows Day by United Nations on 21st December 2010.

Theme of this year

The theme of this year is ‘invisible women , invisible problems’. This theme highlights the problems face by the women , after the death of her husband. They are facing many problems and are ignored by their own family members who doesn’t give any importance to them .

Significance of this day

This day plays an important role in amplifying the voices of widows. It’s main aim is to create awareness about the hardships and struggles faced by the Widows and to implement many legislations to ensure their rights . Every year , this day is observed to honor these Widows.

It also insists to provide their inheritance, pension, lands and other basic needs. It also requests to provide social protection , good job with good salary to them. Widowed women should fight for their rights which is both physically and emotionally.

Widows are considered as bad omens and forbidding their presence in some happy occasions. Even in this modern century, these practices are still continuing in some countries. United Nations says that, member countries should give all the equalities, rights and pension to the Widows.

Covid-19 Vaccines and Immunization



A COVID 19 vaccine is a vaccine intended to supply or improve immunity against severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS CoV 2), the virus that causes corona virus disease 2019 (COVID 19).

India began to vaccinate from 16 January 2021 . As of twenty-two June 2021, India has vaccinated 294,639,511 doses overall, including first and second doses of the currently-approved vaccines.

Vaccine, manufactured by the Bharat Biotech, may be a Whole-virion inactivated Corona virus Vaccine which is additionally manufactured by this institution and has reduced the productions of vaccines like Influenza, Rabies and Hepatitis- A.

EFFECT OF VACCINE:

Currently, a complete of seven COVID-19 vaccines are available across the world but only three vaccines are circulated in India. However, some people questions about the efficacy of those vaccines, especially the emergence of latest strains of the virus. Vaccines must be effective at that time which significantly reduces the spread of the virus for them to achieve success .

Research has demonstrated that the fashionable and therefore the mRNA-based Pfizer vaccines are 94-95% effective, and therefore the figures have proven true even in trials, studying those at high risk and the elderly.

It is a standard misconception that this suggests 95% who get the vaccine are shielded from the disease, leaving 5% unprotected. If this were true, during a population of 100,000 were vaccinated this is able to cause 5,000 people contracting the virus and developing the disease over three months. This rate is analogous to the present UK COVID-19 case rate.

The 95% effectiveness actually means people with the vaccine have a 95% lower risk of COVID-19 in comparison to an impact group. Without the vaccine, we might expect roughly 1% of the population to urge the disease, and with the vaccine, this reduces to 0.05%. At such low rates, the vaccines will allow society to urge back to ‘normal’ and for restrictions to be permanently eased.

ADVANTAGES OF VACCINES:

The best means of staying healthy is to avoid infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. If, however, you are doing become infected, vaccination appears to limit the danger of developing severe or maybe fatal symptoms. this is often because the currently available vaccine primes your immunological system for producing antibodies without causing you to urge sick. If you are doing become infected, your body is ready to fight the disease. Vaccination typically leads to fewer or milder symptoms when you’re ill

By getting the COVID-19 vaccine, you furthermore may lessen the prospect of spreading the COVID-19 pathogen to relations , friends, or people with whom you’ve got contact.

All FDA-approved medications are clinically tested before release to the general public . The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine has been shown to be 94-95 percent effective within fortnight of full inoculation. In other words, the vaccines will safeguard 19 out of each 20 persons inoculated from becoming seriously ill with COVID-19.

As with any vaccination, some side effects are recorded. These include soreness at the injection site, headaches, chills, fever, and fatigue. within the great majority of cases, these post-inoculation symptoms will disappear quickly. they’re also far less severe than the foremost serious COVID-19 symptoms.


The virus has spread across the planet , and therefore the inflection point has yet to be reached, indicating that transmission will still occur unless the virus is firmly controlled. Thus, developing a COVID-19 vaccine which will be used globally may be a major priority.

The way to self-improvement

Everybody likes money, it is an essential aspect of our daily lives that controls society. We use it for exchanging goods and services as well as a benchmark for our success. Knowledge and health follow the same principle, we deem people who are smarter or more fit than us just as better, wanting to become better is in the mindset of all of us. It matters whether we put in the effort or not. Money making, boosting health and attaining knowledge which consists of two parts and it’s very simple structure aspect that is ‘Investment’. This is essentially investing and setting aside time money or any other resources to reach your goal, this might seem like common sense but most people say that they are going to do something but end up not doing it due to laziness or not having enough time.

If you truly care about something you will make time and think of a way to achieve that goal. Let’s take the concept of investing resources and apply it to stock market or money making concept. The younger you start investing , the less money you have to invest per day, per month or even per year to become a millionaire by age of 65. If you want to invest more, go ahead and make the million come to you faster. By investing money and time, you get to enjoy your life more slowly improving your wealth over time. We can invest our money into any company, may that be Google, Amazon, Walmart, Tesla, etc. The sooner you start investing your money, the less effort is required to reach a million and this strategy can be applied to any goal that you create. Knowledge and health follow the same principle, invest money and time and you will be greatly rewarded throughout your journey. Buy books or courses for improving your overall health or your knowledge or buy a personal trainer that can help you to change your dream body. Overall it all boils down to whether you are able to achieve your willing goal, you should actually take a leap towards your goal.

The hardest part of your journey will be aspect number two- ‘Motivation’. Motivation differs from person to person, some people want to become rich to have a great life for themselves while others to give money to organizations that make the world a better place, some people want to have an aesthetic body for showing off and others for their fitness, it differs. Motivation is the burning sensation inside of you that either one wants to continue ferociously or wants to give up because you aren’t seeing the results or it seems too risky. We have to realize that by investing into a better view, it doesn’t matter whether you might have pitfalls in your journey, whereas phrase goes “keep your eyes on the prize”. Fundamentally it does not matter what your goal is, find ways to never lose hope and motivation to succeed and you will achieve your goal much faster than you planned.

Improvement can be achieved in two parts- invest time, money or any other resources that you need and the other one is to have the pure persistence or find ways to never lose hope and motivation to succeed. This adds upto a better version of you.

BOOK REVIEW-An emboldening genre

A Good Takeaway is something essential for all human beings.

 There are only a few genres that create an inevitable impact in the hearts of readers and Autobiographies are considered to be one of the genres that stand out as an influencing factor in the lives of many people. Similarly, Most of us prefer less drama and Assertive pieces of work quite interesting, which makes nonfiction stories likeable. What could be more interesting when two most riveting genres combine! Yes, i will be writing about one of my favourite books, which is an ‘Autobiographical Nonfiction’- “Being Reshma” an impeccable life story of an acid attack survivor or to be more accurate, a warrior, who ought to overcome a traumatic experience of her life and has also succeeded, This book was written by Tania Singh and co-authored by Reshma Qureshi herself. 

This book, an inspiration, is about Reshma (the protagonist) , a girl who faced a tragic incident and was thrown acid by her own sister’s former husband as an act of revenge. Her entire face, skin and bones were damaged then she was taken to a hospital. Reshma was shunned by The hospital and the police authorities responses, which was very harsh. Despite facing many hurdles, Reshma didn’t shatter and succumb to her condition, but shone bright by becoming the first acid attack survivor to walk the runway at Newyork fashion week in 2016 which is just two years post such a terrific incident. She made global headlines by proving herself.

Besides, Reshma participated in many such events and campaigns. In one such campaign called #endacidsale which was held in 2015, Reshma asserted a strong statement which was also mentioned in her book, that is, “You will find red lipstick easily in the market, just like concentrated acid. This is how, every day, a girl becomes a victim of an acid attack.”(Qureshi 138) Which is a very bold statement that made many people think twice and is emotional, also one of my personal favourite lines said by her. Reshma never stopped campaigning against acid Attacks. Reshma also asserts that she wouldn’t stop raising awareness and narrate the ordeal of her life until the discriminatory and diverse mentality of people against acid Attack survivors come to an end. 

We all know acid attacks are not uncommon in India which is truly heartbreaking. Such inspiring autobiographies create powerful impressions and stimulate each of us to achieve big things in life regardless of insurmountable obstacles our life offers, which is nothing compared to life histories of many great personalities like Reshma Qureshi who proved herself and sets a great example for many more youngsters like me.              

In the midst of people who are very much concerned about physical Appearance, there are also people who embrace themselves with open heart and acceptance, which makes them succeed in life in unimaginable ways. 

Hence, if at all people lack confidence in overcoming insecurities I would highly suggest this must-read Autobiographical nonfiction story, “Being Reshma” A Phenomenon. 

Cuban Link Chain: Symbol Of Luxury

The mind may wither. The body may deteriorate. But the love of art and fashion is what keeps us young. The one constant thing in the world is our eternal love for jewellery.

Since ancient times, we have adorned ourselves with whatever we could find, such as animal bones, teeth of predators, bird feathers and shells and carapaces from the ocean. For years, pharaohs, sultans and emperors wore jewellery as a way of displaying wealth and power. Since then, we have come a long way, but the times have not evolved much.

Even though the reasons for wearing jewellery has not changed, the type of jewellery we wear certainly has. The Cuban link chain is one such type that will never go out of fashion in the world of fine jewellery. Yet, it could never compete with the renowned gold-coloured chains.

Cuban link chains, also known as Miami Cuban links, has a unique interlocked pattern and a thick texture to give prominence to the round or oval links. The links intersecting to form a rope-like design ensures durability and high quality. It explains why they can be crafted into large and heavy pieces while looking versatile and stylish at the same time.

Despite the many claims, the exact origin of the Cuban links is unknown. But they are likely to be the product of a hip-hop jewellery movement in the late 1970s that originated in Miami. There are a plethora of types of jewellery in the market that tend to disappear into the wind and come back in vogue a few years later. But, the Cuban link has managed to stay relevant and never went out of style till today. It has found its way to the wish list of many in recent times. The one thing we can say for sure is that it is here to stay.

The Cuban link is not for the faint-hearted. It doesn’t necessarily cost an arm and a leg, but it does cost sky-high, which is why we can see many rappers favouring and flaunting it for all the world to see. After all, solid gold and chock full of diamonds make up the Cuban links. A single chain can cost nearly $27,000. But a more valuable one could cost ten times more than that. It is a representation of all the success and hard work they have endured.

The Cuban links are generally handmade and the diamonds set by hand since they require extreme and impeccable craftsmanship. Designing a single chain calls for the skill of more than five experienced jewellers. It can take over twelve hours to create high-quality pieces that are worthy of the spotlight.

The most attractive feature is that you can style the Cuban link the way you want, like a long chain or a choker. Go for a basic yet stylish look or wear it extravagantly with other pendants. Else, you could wear it as a choker, just as Rihanna did in one of her outfits. Ultimately, the choice dwells with you.

With the legacy of the Cuban links evolving every day, it comes real close to being the best friend for both men and women. There is no reason why you should be modest about its allure. If you got it, why not flaunt it!

Education for Development

It’s not possible to predict all future educational issues, or know every detail of the sector’s current situation, but in the process of applying for teacher training some research will go a long way in demonstrating your enthusiasm and impressing potential employers.Recruiters are looking to see how much you’re engaging with current issues and are aware of the challenges that these place on a school. Your answers can reveal if you are genuinely interested in education, schools and the world of teaching.Today, education remains an inaccessible right for millions of children around the world. More than 72 million children of primary education age are not in school and 759 million adults are illiterate and do not have the awareness necessary to improve both their living conditions and those of their children.

You may have a question around recent education trends, current issues or new methodologies in education. In your interview you may be asked to create a presentation on current issues in education or asked a question around current issues in schools and in the media. Relate your answers back to the classroom – start with, ‘when I was in the classroom, I noticed…’ or ‘in the staffroom, I heard teachers talk about…’. Take a look at what other teaching interview questions you may be asked.

For many children who still do not have access to education, it is notable because of persisting inequality and marginalization.

In developing and developed countries alike, children do not have access to basic education because of inequalities that originate in sex, health and cultural identity (ethnic origin, language, religion). These children find themselves on the margins of the education system and do not benefit from learning that is vital to their intellectual and social developmentFactors linked to poverty such as unemployment, illness and the illiteracy of parents, multiply the risk of non-schooling and the drop-out rate of a child by 2.

Undeniably, many children from disadvantaged backgrounds are forced to abandon their education due to health problems related to malnutrition or in order to work and provide support for the family..

Universal primary education is a major issue and a sizeable problem for many states.Many emerging countries do not appropriate the financial resources necessary to create schools, provide schooling materials, nor recruit and train teachers. Funds pledged by the international community are generally not sufficient enough to allow countries to establish an education system for all children.

Equally, a lack of financial resources has an effect on the quality of teaching. Teachers do not benefit from basic teacher training and schools, of which there are not enough, have oversized classes.

This overflow leads to classes where many different educational levels are forced together which does not allow each individual child to benefit from an education adapted to their needs and abilities. As a result, the drop-out rate and education failure remain high.

A few problems

India has always been a country which has had it’s own issues and problems. Over the years people have may have looked to change but to be honest there is not much change among people. This is an interpretation of an excerpt about the city of Mumbai, The city might have it’s own beauty but under this beauty there are huge scams and secrets running in the city. The city has a very ongoing influx and efflux of people due to its so called name. The country of India itself is referred to the place of No’s as wherever you whatever you do, there is a huge blockage and that is of the No.

People constantly get rejected. Want an auto? No. Want a ride? No. Want some help? No. The metropolis such as Bombay usually have a huge problem of Overpopulation. In a single building there is a huge population which causes a rise in issues and lack of privacy. Indians also do not maintain their own places of living. Usually winds blow in a lot of garbage into houses which cause ailments and soon people end up in a hospital. Service providers come to do their work on their own will and own sweet time no matter when the owner calls them. People choose to do their own work according to their own desire and wills.

Another problem is how our country provides the whole world with some of the best technical brains and forces but yet we do not develop. People go abroad to study and settle down instead of working for our own country. Why is that? The chances of the population go to either the meritious or the rich. You are either smart or you are rich to buy them off. Everything done in this country falls under the quota of academics or money. People usually do not tend to see the other characteristics of an individual such as confidence or athletic capacity as sometimes these can also define an individual.

These are just a percent of the issues of the Indian population there are a hundred more reasons why our country is still stuck in the same status and rank in the case of development. While other countries are rushing their way through development, India still takes small steps just to reach a goal. The people and their mentalities are the main reason why the country is failing to develop unlike a lot of its peers.

Sentences : Simple, Compound, Complex

Sentence: A set of words that is complete in itself, typically containing a subject and predicate, conveying a statement, question, exclamation, or command, and consisting of a main clause and sometimes one or more subordinate clauses.
these are three types 
1) Simple sentence
2) Compound sentence
3) Complex sentence

Simple Sentence: A Simple sentence has only one Subject and one Predicate. [OR] A Simple sentence has only one Finite Verb. Sentence consists of two parts:   The moon was bright and we could see our way.
1. The moon was bright.
2. We could see our way.
The Co-Ordinating Conjunction “and’ join these two parts. Each part contains a Subject and a Predicate of its own. Thus, each part is what we call a Clause. We further notice that each clause makes good sense by itself and could stand a separate sentence. Therefore, each clause is independent of the other or the same order and is called a Principal or Main Clause.

Compound Sentence: A sentence, such as the second, made up of Principal or Main Clauses, is called a Compound Sentence. [OR] A Compound sentence is one made up of two or more Principal or Main Clauses. Sentence: Night came on and rain fell heavily and we all got very wet.
1.Night came on.
2. Rain fell heavily.
3. We all got very wet.
Such a sentence is also called a Compound sentence.

Complex sentence: A complex sentence consists of one main clause and one more Subordinate Clause. Sentence : They rested when evening came.
1. They rested .
2. When evening came.
Each part contains a Subject and a Predicate of its own and forms part of a large sentence. Each part is, therefore, a Clause. We further notice that the Clause, They rested, makes good sense by itself and could stand by itself as a complete sentence. It is therefore called the Principal or Main Clause. The clause, when evening came, cannot stand by itself and make good sense. It is dependent on the clause they rested . It is therefore called a Dependent or Subordinate Clause. A sentence, such as the fourth, is called a Complex Sentence.

Russia invated by Napoleon and Grand Army

On 24 June, French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, crossed the Neman River, invading Russia from present-day Poland. Eventually this resulted in disaster for the French.

To intimidate Alexander, Napoleon massed his forces in Poland in the spring of 1812, but still the czar resisted. On June 24, Napoleon ordered his Grande Armée, the largest European military force ever assembled to that date, into Russia.



Which all started when Russian army refused to engage with Napoleon’s Grande Armée of all most 500,000 European troops. Though the Grande Armée did not have enough supplies or the distribution networks required for such a long march. However french strategists assumed the Grande Armée would be supplied by wagons, or would be able to gather supplies as they went. Furthermore, Grande Armée also failed to prepare for Russia’s harsh winter. Its troops were not dressed or trained for the kind of weather they faced.



Besides the invasion lasted six months, and the Grande Armée lost more than 300,000 men during the process. On the other side Russia lost more than 200,000 too. This single battle resulted in more than 70,000 casualties in one day. The invasion of Russia effectively halted Napoleon’s march across Europe, and resulted in his first exile, to the Mediterranean island of Elba.

Health and Fitness

Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. This is the definition provided by the World Health Organization. Good health is generally the state of normal disease-free conditions. As per the report of Lalonde from Canada, the key factors of a persons health are broadly separated into 3 main categories- Lifestyle, this is usually the choices the individuals choices of day to day actions and products, Environment, which are the external factors of the individual, Biomedical, these factors are influenced by various genetic factors. Major reasons which lead to the fading health in an individual are diseases, malnourishment, injuries and lifestyle choices. Almost lakhs of people die from various diseases yearly due to lifestyle and cardiovascular diseases due to changes. There is also an increasing importance of mental well being recently. Medications of various types have been developed such as Allopathic, Ayurvedic and Homeopathic. What are these various categories of medication? Allopathic medication usually refers to the day to day medication we ingest in the form of tablets. These are usually composed of various chemical formulations and so on. Ayurveda and Homeopathy are more into the side of using natural products and ingredients. They are more focused on the usage of things directly from earth than synthesizing it.

Fitness during the pandemic has been of immense interest. People have a lack of access to gyms and other facilities due to the lockdowns and restrictions. Due to this sudden shift of schedule, people either do not work out or do too much. Both are equally harmful for the human body. There has been reports on an increase of feeding habits among individuals during the pandemic and due to the fear of body image there was also an increase in the addition of workouts on a day to day basis. Some tips to keep up with the fitness needs for any individual would be, do some kind of exercise for at least half an hour a day. This gives your body some time to move around and your metabolism to rise up again. Due to the constant sitting and doing work on our laptops sometimes we get confined to that area which harms us. We might not realize it now but over time we will as it also results in stiffness and fat deposition. Make small lifestyle changes such as walking while on a video call or a normal call with someone. These could really make a difference!

PROBLEMS OF UNEMPLOYMENT IN INDIA:

PROBLEMS CAUSES:

Unemployment and poverty goes side by side. Young people after a long time of unemployment find the wrong way to earn money.To get rid from the unemployment stress, they accept alcohol or drugs.Unemployed youths accepts suicide as the last option of their life.Lower economic growth.Unemployment means a person willing to work but unable to find a qualified job. Our country is facing many problems but one of the serious problem is of unemployment. Many graduates, doctors, engineers, scientist are unemployed or working underemployed.

Due to unemployment we are wasting our country’s human resource. The unemployed rate in between age group 15- 29 has been increased since 2009-2010. According to the Global Employment Trends 2014 the unemployment rate has raised to 3.8%, last year it was 3.7%. The International Labour Organisation (ILO) has said in the recent report that India has shown rise in the unemployment in the last two years.If the problem of unemployment is solved it will help in development of the country. With Population of1.20 billion in our country the unemployment rate is increasing day by day.

The problem of unemployment is rising but still many industries are facing the problem of skilled candidate for their company. There is a boom of software companies, Outsourcing companies in India, but still facing the problem of unemployment. Here are some of the reasons why there is unemployment in India.

There are employment opportunities in India, but the rising population problem creates the unemployment. If the population grows in the same rate the next generation will face more problems of unemployment. If there is vacancy for 1 position 100 or 1000 apply for the position and only one gets the job and others remain unemployed.InflationIndians don’t take jobs which are below their grades. Many find it difficult to work at the below qualification level job.Low wages or salary below the market rate.Many big industries look for the skilled candidate only, for their company.RecessionMany Employers give preference to the experienced candidates only and not the fresher.Not enough or new jobs: As per the experience & analysis from Get Sarkai Naukri, number of new government jobs is decreasing every year. Government is not able to create enough jobs keeping in mind the Indian population.Slow business expansion Advanced Technology: Earlier for a task hundreds or thousand people were required to do a work but now due to the advanced technology only one person can do many people’s work. With the advanced technology companies are hiring few persons to operate the machine. Give a command on computer and the work is done this has cut off the employment of many.Corruption: In Government sector and in some private sector people get the job by giving the bribe. Even though the candidate is not that qualified but if he gives the bribe he gets the job. So to get a government job give a bribe.The qualified candidate remains unemployed as no money to give the bribe. Even though the candidate is not that qualified but if he gives the bribe he gets the job. So to get a government job give a bribe.The qualified candidate remains unemployed as no money to give the bribe. The problem of unemployment gives rise to the problem of poverty. As the employed youth don’t have anything to do they start doing robbery, murder etc.Health issues i.e it affects mentally as well as physically Solutions to the unemployment in India .

1. The very first solution for the unemployment is to control the rising population of our country. Government should motivate people to have small families. Indian government has started initiatives to control the population but still the population is rising.

2. The quality of Indian education should be improved. The current education system is not upto the level. Government should keep a strict watch on the education system and try to implement new ways to generate skilled labour force. Government should select a committee to look after the schools and universities. The syllabus taught is of no use to the industries so the education should be as per the current requirements of the industries. Before completing the education a practical knowledge should be given.

3. Also today’s youth should join the institute or select the course where proper training is given and the course is as per the current industries requirements. Take the course as per your interest and which will bright your future.

4. Government should encourage and develop the agriculture based industries in rural areas so that the rural candidates don’t migrate to the urban areas. More employment should be generated in rural areas for the seasonal unemployment people.

5. Rapid Industrialization should be created.

6. Development of the rural areas will stop the migration of the rural people to the urban cities and this will not put more pressure on the urban city jobs.

7. Government should allow more foreign companies to open their unit in India, so that more employment opportunities will be available.

Caged Bird by Maya Angelou

This poem was published in 1983 in Maya Angelou’s poetry collection “Shaker, why don’t you sing?”. This was her 4th volume of poetry which was published by Random House. It contains 28 poems and they are dedicated to her son guy Johnson and her grandson Colin Ashanti Murphy Johnson. Maya Angelou has depicted the plight of the Black American especially Black Women through this poem.

In this poem, Maya Angelou tries to make a comparison between a free bird and the caged bird. The birds are used as an extended metaphor, the African Americans are compared to the caged birds and the unoppressed people compared to the free birds. The African Americans had to suffer immensely and the caged bird’s captivity depicts the same, whereas the free bird and its freedom to be able to do anything that it likes and its will to claim the sky and everything in its reach depicts the privilege and the entitlement that the un-oppressed felt

The free bird can fly anywhere, explore the sky and they are not subjected to any limitation but the caged bird is kept behind the cage, it cannot fly anywhere and it feels helpless and angered, in the same way, Maya Angelou tries to explain that the oppressed people were not given opportunities and they were treated badly.

The caged bird sings of freedom and that is why that song can be heard even on the distant hills. To the bird which is free, freedom is something which they do not think about whereas for the caged bird freedom is a privilege.

The oppressors feel that they own everything and that they can achieve more and more just like the free bird names the sky his own but the oppressed were not allowed to do anything, they were treated as slaves.

“A free bird leaps

on the back of the wind   

and floats downstream   

till the current ends

and dips his wing

in the orange sun rays

and dares to claim the sky.

But a bird that stalks

down his narrow cage

can seldom see through

his bars of rage

his wings are clipped and   

his feet are tied

so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings   

with a fearful trill   

of things unknown   

but longed for still   

and his tune is heard   

on the distant hill   

for the caged bird   

sings of freedom.

The free bird thinks of another breeze

and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees

and the fat worms waiting on a dawn bright lawn

and he names the sky his own

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams   

his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream   

his wings are clipped and his feet are tied   

so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings   

with a fearful trill   

of things unknown   

but longed for still   

and his tune is heard   

on the distant hill   

for the caged bird   

sings of freedom.”

Seclusion…

Sometimes what we need to get peace from everything else is the seclusion. Seclusion is a state of being alone and away from people or to be more precise, becoming more private with life.

People nowadays finds it difficult to find peace in anything. This world of politics, wars, betrayals, failures, demises makes a person lose faith in good vibes and they even lose confidence in themselves. Today, people goes through heartbreaks whether it is in friendship or relationship. Sometimes the heartbreaks comes from their families , their careers or their dreams. All these negativity makes a person feel completely exhausted and depressed.

This is the time when a person needs to live in solitude and seclusion. Sometimes, when the times are hard it is better to spend a few time with your own self for getting the peace. Seclusion gives the freedom to live in the way what a person would desire. Tearing apart all the boundaries and shackles of the responsibilities, seclusion gives the person to enjoy the life in their own way.

When a person resides in solitude or seclusion, they can make themselves happy by doing the things that they wanted to do for a long time, for example, they can go traveling or they can concentrate more on their hobbies that they were unable to do for various reasons. It is the time when a person makes time for their own selves and thus this helps them to know more about their own. They can explore their hidden talents. This is the time when a person completely understands what they truly desire .

Seclusion provides a way for having the idea and practicing self-love. We may sometimes feel that no one loves us but that’s not the right thing for a happy life. First we have to love ourselves and for that being away from people for a while makes us realise that. People should do things that make them feel happy with themselves. They should not feel bored with themselves or be dependent on anyone to become happy.

Seclusion gives us an opportunity to live the actual life rather than depending on the social media likes and comments. Nowadays people depend a lot on these social medias. The series of likes and comments puts a very bad impact on a person that if anytime they get less likes or comments they feel heartbroken and their self-confidence decreases. But if someone become isolated from this world of social media they can find that they are good enough the way they are.

Finding peace in own self and growing self love can only be achieved when a person gives time to themselves. It is a very important step which should be taken by everyone so that for a while they can detach themselves from this world and find peace in themselves. Seclusion is enjoyable if you start doing self-love and enjoying your own company and not depending on anyone for your happiness. Because at the end of the day it is you who is there for own self.

Edge Computing

Edge computing allows for faster response times that aren’t hampered by network latency, as well as decreased bandwidth by selectively transferring the right data to the cloud.

Edge computing architecture is directly applicable to IoT-linked devices.

A large amount of data is generated by remote sensors placed on a machine, component, or device. If the data is transported back across a long network link to be evaluated, logged, and monitored, it takes considerably longer than if it is handled at the edge, near to the data source.

Edge computing was formed as a result of the rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) devices that connect to the internet to receive information from the cloud or to send data back to the cloud.

Advantages of Edge Computing

  • Speed: Edge computing has the capacity to reduce latency and enhance network speed. By processing data closer to the source of information, substantially minimizes the distance it must travel.
  • Scalability: You can utilize the edge to scale your own IoT network without worrying about storage requirements. Also, IoT devices may be installed here with just one implantation.
  • Reliability: Edge computing excels at maintaining reliability. Edge computing provides an uninterruptible service since it does not rely on internet connections or servers most of the time. There is no need for users to be concerned about service disruptions or poor internet connections. It can also use microdata centers to store and possess data locally. As a result, IoT devices can be assured of a stable connection. As a result, edge computing is advised for usage in remote places where a stable network connection is unavailable.
  • Cost: IoT services require additional network bandwidth, data storage, and processing power, so they can be expensive to implement. Edge computing for IoT allows users to minimize bandwidth and data storage requirements, and data centers may be replaced with device solutions. As a result, the cost of installing IoT devices and applications is significantly reduced. Also, not all of the information is transferred to the cloud. Only the most relevant data will be transmitted to the cloud, saving network bandwidth. This can lower overall infrastructure expenditures.

Disadvantages of Edge Computing

  • Incomplete Data: Only partial sets of data may be processed and analysed using edge computing. The rest of the information is just discarded. Companies may lose a lot of important information as a result of this. As a result, companies must decide what sort of data they are prepared to lose before using edge computing. 
  • Investment Cost: Building an edge infrastructure may be time-consuming and costly. This is because of their complexity, which requires the use of more resources and equipment. Also, the IoT device with edge computing requires the use of more local hardware in order to function. Overall, this might lead to greater efficiency, but it will need considerable investment. 
  • More Storage Space: Edge computing requires a substantial increase in storage capacity on your device. This will not be a concern because storage devices are growing increasingly compact. It is, though, something to keep in mind while creating an IoT device.
  • Maintenance: Edge computing, unlike a centralized cloud architecture, is a distributed system. This means that there are more network configurations with many compute nodes to choose from. This requires a greater level of maintenance than a centralized system.

How to start coding? Part-1

To begin with coding, you need to first learn a programming language. A computer can’t learn the human language. A computer only understands that is in the form of 0’s or 1’s i.e binary language. So to communicate with the computer, you need to learn its language. Programming language is a sort of instructions set that is fed to the computer so that we can get the desired output. There are tons of homogenous programming languages available. Some languages are equivocal. While some are quite the contrary. One such programming language that is most popular today is called “Python”.

Every buzzword around you today is more or less uses Python. Python is an integrated high-level general-purpose programming language. Python is the fastest-growing programming language.

Some of the advantages of coding in the “most popular programming language are”-

It’s easy to read, write and learn code in Python

Python is an interpreted language

Python is free and open-source

Python supports every possible library available

Python is a high-level language

Python is an object-oriented language

Python is portable across Operating Systems

Every coin has two sides, so does Python also has its disadvantages-

Python is quite slow in execution

Python is not so memory efficient.

But, these disadvantages do not anguish its popularity. It may sound perplexing to learn all these keywords. But trust me once you get your hands dirty with coding, you will come to understand these terms.

Surge in interest for Python

There are also some analogous programming languages. C, C++, Java are some of these programming languages. They have their advantages and disadvantages. But none of them is even close in terms of usage and popularity with python.

The growth with pythons influence is steadily increasing and will surely see an exponential rise in the near future. Tech giants such as google have left no stone unturned on using python. Due to this increasing demand for python, it’s feasible to learn python. And this will be your stepping stone on your way to learn to code.
