So once again after expressing my heartfelt thanks to akshita bansal @feedsbyakshita for nominating me, I now proceed to answer the questions from her.



THE Questions and Answers–


1. WHAT INSPIRES YOU TO WRITE ?

Ans. It is life, which itself is a big question, a big challenge. It also does ask many questions and makes us react in many forms, of which one form is writing blogs. There are many mediums of expression- drawing, painting, Acting, making films and TV serial, also participating in debates for some people. I think writing is also a good option and with the availability of online platforms, it is most appropriate for people like me who don’t want to spend money in publishing books etc. and can directly reach the target audience through this.

2. WHAT ALL DO YOU DO TO KEEP ALL YOUR DISTRACTIONS AWAY?

Ans. It is a quite difficult question. Is it always necessary to avoid distractions? Sometimes while writing poems, distractions also help in being more creative and imaginative. However, concentration is definitely important in life, one can learn by practice how to concentrate and when distractions are more powerful, we can take a break for some time and resume later, sometimes it may help us to be more creative.

3. IS THERE ANY KIND OF ADVICE YOU WOULD LIKE TO GIVE TO THE PEOPLE IN PAIN?

Ans. There was one advice which some saint gave to somebody, whether in pain or being big headed, when everything is in your control. And the advice was- ‘This situation would also not remain forever‘. We can study some inspiring literature, life history of great people. In life everybody has to face ‘ups and downs’, we also do understand under these conditions, who actually are our real well wishers. More than giving advice, we should try to help such people, if we can.

4. WHAT WILL YOU DO IF YOU FIND A PERSON DEPRESSED OR STRESSED OUT? DO YOU THINK THAT WILL HELP?

Ans. Sympathy and empathy are the things everybody can provide. We should try to understand what are the things that have brought the person in that condition. When we listen to the pains of a person and try to infuse hope in him, it makes a great difference. There are many things which would depend on actual condition of a person and gravity of the problems. Depending on nature of the problem, we can decide how to proceed, whether it needs medical attendance or what?

5. WHAT ALL OTHER WAYS CAN YOU THINK OF INSPIRING OTHERS, OTHER THAN WRITING?

Ans. The real thing in society, that we can do is being a good friend, neighbor, colleague etc. We need to have a friendly behavior and helping attitude. Listen to them with sympathy and empathy. If we are in a position to do so, we can encourage people to do things, which might help them in moving forward. Let others feel that you are the person with whom they can freely share their joys and sorrows and also seek advice if needed.


Now is the turn to nominate some blogger friends and also to notify them.
