Be Heard!-

 Conformity!!

 Words are powerful. Words changes lives; Words and Idea change the world!

What is conformity? When I heard it first time, the word sounded complex to me . Here is, google answer “ Conformity is the act of matching attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors to group norms, politics or being - minded!!.Umm. still complex! Sometimes google also gives up a word where I need to go for another google tab. Well, it is not google mistake. The word is that complex.🤔😤


Here is my version of Conformity. It is nothing but to say “YES” for everything and more importantly “blindly follow” what is been told to you!  Whether it is for a good reason or for a crime! Ultimately, Reflect and Represent a group!. Here, one does not have think too much.. Follow the rule book or the person who stands in front of you..!🙅

So, is it good? Have I practiced conformity in my life? The answer is Yes!! On typical situation, esp today , on  covid lockdown period, it is better to follow the rules than being outstanding i.e being at home , wear mask and maintain social distance!!👍

Where I found this conformity is as funny as it could be or makes you to loose self -value:

Some of the typical scenario I have seen in office business meetings.😈

  • Manager says meeting at 4:30. it is 4:30..! whether you have guest or your tea time!
  • Manager says there needs a comma , yes comma is Valid! Not semicolon! Vastu problem..Huh?
  • Manager says sun rises west.. Yes sun rises west..  lol..

Well, it is so funny right? Have your voice heard!  If we keep following the rule books then there is no twist in life. if we go on that way, then RIP to innovation and creative! We may not have the great leaders like Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Nelson Mandela and many others. They did what they believed is right and created a history!  Is your history needs special edition or copy of others? Uhmm..before you get into deeper thought..let see one more side of conformity.. apart from being funny,it could be dangerous too..

Well, where it could be? At this moment, these are places where I can think of:  👹👿

  • Child marriage!
  • Social norms that does not respect the humanity!
  • Life style that cost your happiness!

 Where else you feel it could dangerous ? Please comment👇

The reward of conformity is that everyone likes you except yourself!!💁

Meet you in next blog!

Is it right??

Justice! Today the topic is,   Justice! As soon as I heard the word, I remembered Karna! Most of us favorite character in Mahabharat! It is my version. Hence I request not to compare with the epic Mahabhart and the literature written by legends!😌 His birth was impulsive act by  princess Kunti! Surya’s Son. Born as prince , he did not get the right to live the life of prince! He was not mentored by Dhronacharya. Panchali insulted him in her suyamavar because of the caste he grow up..  His guru and cow herder gave a curse, that costed his life.. Kunti confessed the truth when the life of Pandavas was at risk.. It is hard to digest the fact that the mother who gave birth does not want accept and acknowledge him as her son! Injustice!!🙍 His life was tailored to face injustice !! What Karna did towards injustice is made him today also as Hero in Mahabharat and  equivalent to Arjuna!  He embraced all the injustices given to him. He has given his best to exce...

Kanni Maadam

Kanni Maadam- Book Review.. First of all, writing the pure Tamizh names to echo the same is really tough.. However here is my take.. I must appreciate the writer for writing it so lengthy. Even though in few places the description of the situation is dragging, but is not failing to impress neither it is hurts the story line.. The storyline, takes back to the world of king and war! Once upon a time, Tamilnadu was open to dangerous. Everyone wants to rule it because of the wealth or someone gave them space to stay! The story revolves around Madurai and Nellai. During that time, the primary rulers were Pandiyas  (Madurai) and Cholas (Nellai). During the thayathi war, Parakrama pandya was killed by Kulasekhara Pandiya. Before dying, he sought help from Illangarapuran to fight with Kulasekaran. Illllangarapuran defeated Kulasekara Pandyan and made Veerapandiyan as king i.e Parakirama Pandya’s son. So it become like a joke i.e I am wearing a shirt but it is not mine.. or in same line...
