How Would You Introduce an Alien to Earth?
I don’t know about you, but I adore aliens for several reasons. My fascination with aliens is like having a cosmic crush on the universe’s most enigmatic creatures. It’s like the universe said, “Hey, I’ve got these funky, green folks hanging out in UFOs, and you’re gonna love ‘em.”

Whispers in the Mailbox
My mailbox hangs on the front door, with a rectangular hole cut into the door panel for letters to be slipped through from the outside. Whenever I hear the postal carrier's bell go "ding-ding," I hurry to open it, and a letter silently stands inside the mailbox. The sky-blue envelopes resemble a piece of the sky, while the brown paper ones look like slabs of earth, weighty and substantial. Whenever I tear open an envelope, my emotions are always eager and thirsty, uncertain whether it holds surprises, confessions, sorrows, attentiveness, joys, or pleas for help, or perhaps a fiery romance or wandering thoughts that tug incessantly. From every corner of the world, the whereabouts of my friends depend solely on these missives.

Bookaholic and God
Do you all pray to God? Who do you turn to in difficult times? Being born and brought up in a Hindu family, I was always taught to pray daily before school so that God could bless us with knowledge and willingness to be a good performers in school. Well, these small prayer sessions turned into praying twice daily, keeping fasts and visiting temples regularly as I grew up, sometimes without any reason and sometimes with the desire to get something in return. We as a family used to go on a trip to our village every year where our parents made sure that certain temples were included in our itinerary and my sister and I used to go because we loved staying in hotels, eat what we want and buy toys near temples. When we were a little older our parents enrolled us for a religious summer camp where they taught us Yoga, meditation and since we were all just kids arranged certain games etc. for us. We practiced all this at home as well daily till the time we went into college and got busy with other things.
