How big is your ego? We all live in a competitive world, where everyone is running behind their individual targets, to prove themselves better than others. Who actually are these others? It’s none other than our own friends, folks and relatives. However, the fun fact here is that it’s mutual. While we are trying to surpass them (thanks to our materialistic life), they too are trying the same. This has always made me ask 2 specific questions to myself: All this for what and why?
All this fuss….for what?
Over a period of time, we all have gradually learned to seek happiness in the things around us: Cars, houses, clothing, jewelry, jobs and what not. Thanks to the programming we have done to our mind. And amongst all this, we have also gradually unlearned to be happy with the moments, people and emotions we created. The loss is ours, but the choice is ours too. Amid all this, we are rearing a generation who will be more competitive, egoistic and lack emotions in the near future.
Why all this fuss?
One thing for sure…we all want to be the winner of our game in our lives. No matter what, we want to win the game as that is the only means by which we can satisfy our EGO!!! You, I and every one of us thinks that peace will only come when things fall into place as per our will. How can this be possible?? Instead, things will fall into place once peace prevails in our life. And for that, we need to give up staying into a self-created world of ours & the desires which ultimately feed the ego of ours. If uncontrolled, we make our ego bigger than our emotions, relations and us!!
Is it that BAD??
If someone negates having an ego, that’s completely incorrect. Ego is a sense of self. The sense of “I. Ego is having a passion, a goal in life and the drive to achieve the same. Ego is present in the excitement when we achieve what we sought. And we all have it. Just named differently: self-esteem, self-confidence, self-respect etc. The important thing is how we use it in our favor and create a halo of positivity around us. This halo helps us to identify our true needs from life, the emotions we need to cultivate and the hope we need to have to cherish the people and moments around us.
Why is it important to embrace our ego?
Till a certain level, ego is important to us, as it develops the drive within us to go for the ultimate achievement-Peace and contentment. It is important for us to embrace our ego, for introspection and to attain the fact of the core self. This process of self-discovery is known as self-realization, as the fact is that we are the path to our own development of wisdom, soul, and growth. Ego is a friend if you learn to use it in the correct way.
It’s the spark to our creativity, and fire to the soul and fuels dreams. Ego helps us to cherish the bonding we develop in the journey of life and hold the relations we value by being humble and kind. A person with a diminished ego is nothing more than a person living without any objective in life. Low self-esteem makes a person nothing more than a wandering soul without a purpose.
Becoming slaves to self can be dangerous
However, if uncontrolled, we are nothing more than the slaves to the self. It devastates the spirituality every human has within him/her, destroys the rationale and compassion we should have towards others and culminates the understanding about the surroundings and others.
It makes us believe in the world we create around us, which operates on our terms and conditions. A mirage we create around us, to satisfy our ego, our desires and our sense of security. We stop taking “No” to our solutions and ideas and start negating the logical understandings of others if it doesn’t match with ours. We start thinking that failure is not for us. And ultimately, we stop LISTENING to others, and LISTENING to our soul. And amongst all this, we become judgmental and start comparing the success we achieved to those of others.
Introspecting is important
Probably, to avoid all this, we should take some time and introspect. It’s good to ask questions to self, whenever we feel that we are going on a different path. This is a part of self-realization activity we can do for ourselves, to keep our ego under control. Here are a few questions that you need to ask yourself to keep your ego in check.
1. How many people will walk with me in the time of need & Uncertainty?
2. What kind of emotions currently I am having within me?
3.Has failure deterred me from trying again?
4. Is it material or the emotions: which is important for me?
5. A friend got a promotion, was I happy with this news?
6.Can I go beyond my way to help out someone?
7.How frequently I took No as an answer to my ideas, in a positive way?
8. Am I a good listener? Does my listening help others?
9. How frequently do I adjust with the ideas of friends and relatives, to retain them in my life?
10. Do I give up easily on people and relations, considering that I will meet new people in life ahead?
There may be many more questions which may help us in introspecting ourselves. The above are only a few.
Wrapping up- “Value the relationship with self and others, and the emotions we inculcate in life, and not the things we attain, because it’s the people, which keep us going and not the things.”

The craving to have a gym body is based on the stereotype that the gym body is the perfect body. The idea of body positivity says that all bodies are perfect, and any and everybody should desire to be healthy and fit instead of desiring to be a slip and of the right shape.

Review: Aurora’s End (The Aurora Cycle #3) by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
I received a free copy of this book in return for an honest review. Many thanks to Oneworld Publications and NetGalley for the opportunity.
It was a long, long wait. In book publishing time it was only two and a half years from the first book in the trilogy to the last, but in reader year it’s been a lifetime since Tyler Jones rescued Aurora Jie Lin O’Malley from a 200 year sleep in stasis, in the process missing his opportunity to pick himself a crack squadron. Instead he was presented with a bunch of misfits no-one else wanted to work with. If you don’t know what I am talking about then you need to stop right here and go read the first two books as there are spoilers ahead for books #1 and #2.
For the rest of us, book #2 Aurora Burning ended on a monster cliffhanger, with the intrepid heroes of Squadron 312 split up and left in three separate life-threatening situations. Book #3 starts with a bang as Scarlett, Finian and Zila are flung backwards in time to a point where Terrans and Betraskans are at war. Auri, and Kal are flung forward to a galaxy overwhelmed by the Ra’haam with a only handful of galactic survivors left alive. In the present, Tyler, alone, must to try to save the Aurora Academy from a massive explosion which will kill the rulers of almost every species in the galaxy and leave the defence against the Ra’haam in tatters.
Though the trilogy is named for Aurora (both girl and Academy), she has never dominated the action. Every squad member has been given page time. Every squad member has played an essential role. Even the chirpy, handheld computer Magellan, has had part to play. Aurora herself is a character of contrasts. Small but powerful, young but very old, fragile but wielding immense strength. The girl out of time, chosen among the thousands of passengers on the Hadfield to carry the power of the Eshvaren and save the galaxy but still won’t let a swear word pass her lips. Of all the characters in the squadron, though, I admit, I loved Zila the most. Kaufman and Kristoff managed to take this character from emotionally closed to heart-wrenchingly caring in so few words and details. It was a master class in character development. “I am not feeling nothing.” Five words that broke my heart.
The Aurora Cycle is all about time: time travel, time loops, the girl out of time, even Aurora’s extended timespan in the Echo, but it is also about memory, the pull of the past against the future, the Eshvaren: - long dead beings leaving memories all over the galaxy, Aurora’s memories of her family, the Academy and it’s commemorative statues of the founders and instructions passed from leader to leader, and then there is the Ra’haam. The blue flower that both preserves and destroys all those it touches, which will always be, in my mind, a forget-me-not.
And so to the grand finale. The moment we have been waiting for, the epic conclusion of a three book saga. Sadly, after the monumental cliffhanger to Aurora Burning and the literal race against time, it just felt anti-climactic. I couldn’t quite get to grips with the metaphysical nature of some of the imagery. The losses didn’t feel like deep losses and the wins didn’t feel feel like epic wins. So, though it was a perfectly good ending with all the different story strands neatly tied up in a bow, it just left me feeling a little flat. Having said that, I have thoroughly enjoy this series. I loved the characters, the romances were interesting and I’m sure I will be rereading this series down the line. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Today I am absolutely delighted to share my thoughts on The Writing Retreat, the fabulous debut novel from Julia Bartz. I was sent an early copy of the book by the lovely folk at Magpie/One World and I have to say, it’s a book that kept me completely hooked … and put me completely off the idea of taking part in any future writing opportunities, not matter how fantastic they sound. Here’s what…

The blurred lens of history… #solovyovandlarionov #eugenevodolazkin @LizoksBooks @OneworldNews
Solovyov and Larionov by Eugene Vodolazkin Translated by Lisa C. Hayden
One of last year’s outstanding books for me was a title I read and reviewed for Shiny New Books – “The Aviator” by Eugene Vodolazkin. That book was the Kiev-born author’s third novel; however, his works have not been translated in the order of publication. His second work, “Laurus” came out in 2016 and “The Aviator”a year ago.…

Weekly Horoscope: Check out what week holds for you?
Kiran Pandey Rai is back with a weekly horoscope, take a look at what all this week holds for you? Check your zodiac signs and then plan your week accordingly.
Aries: Home, happiness and vehicle will be on your priority list. Your communication skill must be improved in this period. Consequently, your relation will also be better with loved ones. Even your communication must give you gain in a different form. Eyes, teeth or in short (ENT) issue can be faced. The best part of this period will be your hard-working attitude.
Taurus: Your ego will be reflecting in your behaviour. This attitude may create a disturbance among loved ones but you will learn to take criticism in your stride. Your health may be the area of concern but an aspect of a benefic planet will keep you safe. The financial area won’t be very comfortable. Your anxiety level will be also high even for an insignificant reason.
Gemini: This week may give you a moment of an identity crisis. Such thought will definitely give you anxious moments. The financial area will be in moderate condition. The temperamental issue will keep on bothering you. The courage to make a decision and execute the same will guide you towards your destination.
Cancer: Your attitude will be temperamental towards your people. Take a decision with consciousness, do not behave rashly in it. Life will go at a slow pace and you must accept it to avoid further disturbance in life. Your seniors will prove beneficial for you. Your friends from different community may try to catch up with you. Overall a good period for you.
Leo: You will be work-centric this week. Your work will give you benefit too. Keep being honest and modest at work to get genuine appreciation. Friends or elder siblings can be the reason for happiness. Be careful in handling younger siblings. Finance will be a comfortable area for you in this period. Chances of involving in a new relationship.
Virgo: This period brings you closer to your father as well as religious activities. But, in general, your tongue would be harsh. Your goal will be extremely important for you and you won’t be able to accept other’s interferences. It’s best to stay focused on your work rather than justifying your actions before others. Unexpected income can be seen these days.
Libra: If you had been planning for a long to travel abroad or any beautiful places, this is the right time to travel. But do not forget to follow the present protocol due to corona. Even this may be the right choice of time to renovate your home décor. Changing of the vehicle can also be seen. Your mother may be the reason for concern in this period.
Scorpio: You may indulge in a dispute with some religious person or even father. Your reluctant behaviour might be the strong reason for such a situation. Your progeny will give you pleasure through their achievements or their activities. Be careful with your behaviour with your spouse. Your spouse might sound very demanding, take it as a pinch of salt and let this period gets over.
Sagittarius: You might get some negative vibes or difference of opinions with your kids. It will be difficult for you to take the situation easily. Try to keep your emotion at bay while dealing with such a condition. Spouse will be your strength in this period. The financial aspect of life looks very promising. Your opponents won’t have any reason to tease you. Overall, a good period altogether can be seen.
Capricorn: You must be very stubborn as well as determined in your planning in this period. Even though you know the facts, but avoid humiliating anybody. Be modest in dealing with your people. Do not eat anything that may affect your health. This period looks vulnerable to your digestion. Eat wisely. Avoid any argument with seniors.
Aquarius: Students of this sign, pull up your socks to get the best in this period. A successful relationship can be expected. Most of your work and planning will get a genuine path to move. Patience will give a glow to your work as well as results. Delay can be expected but hard work will definitely give you genuine success. A good time is on your way.
Pisces: Your health may be the reason for concern but it won’t turn into the worst face. You may try to connect to your younger siblings but not on a good note. It’s better to stay cool and calm rather than messing up with the wrong tone. Your inner peace can be expected, indeed. The monetary area of life will be satisfactory. Overall, a lukewarm week is knocking on your door.
