Dress Up!

DRESS UP



BY

“Dressing up is a way of reclaiming happiness regardless of outside factors"


Do we take all the the efforts to dress up and look good, for ourselves or for others to see?

Many of us, especially women / girls claim they dress up for themselves and to feel good.

Though it is debatable and subjective, there is no denying that dressing up well to the occasion surely leaves an impression on others.

It is laughable when actresses and Insta models claim to dress for themselves, as their whole career/life depends on looking good, and are fashion icons.


Professionaly, it surely makes a world of difference with the way you present yourself at work or client visits. More sharper you look, the respect and attention surely grows.


Dressing up surely lifts our own spirits apart from spiking the atmosphere around us.

The 2 years of downtime during Covid times when we were holed up in our homes with just Shorts and a T Shirt on, looking shabby all the time was probably one of the reason we were depressed.


The way we dress up represents our personality. Whether you make it gaudy or simplistic or elegant, each of us have our own persona that fits us.

The way we present ourselves even on regular days and not only during occasions, talks volumes about our attitude, approach towards life.


Many times the way we dress up resonates our mood and spirit levels and speaks how disciplined and principled we are.


Dressing up well and apt to the situation, not only lifts our own spirits and confidence, but lifts the mood of people around us.


Dressing up doesn't mean we have to follow trends or fashion, the daily wears, the regular office wears or night wears if chosen and worn well, can make us look sharp and smart.


People in their youth and middle age will usually make efforts to look good. But it's more pleasing to see infants, kids and elderly dress well/dressed well.


When my wife or women in general take literally an hour to get ready, though it is irritating at that moment, but when they come out looking stunning, it's worth all the wait.


So, let's dress up to keep ourselves happy, feel spirited, be confident, motivate others, impress others and fill the world with good looking people!

Humans - Subjective Subjects

HUMANS - SUBJECTIVE SUBJECTS



BY

MURALI MURTHY


We humans are subjective subjects. Our thoughts, needs, desires, ambitions change based on situation, environment and mood!

Series of Questions and Dilemmas we face everyday and the responses differ in each phase of our lives.


Are Grass Greener on the other side Or all sides?


Are Beaches and Mountains only meant for Holidays Or can they be made Home?


Nationalism and Patriotism is subjective and when native Language, Water, Land of the State is in question, Statehood pride takes precedence over Nationalism.


Should God protect us Or should we protect God?


Should Govt and Leaders defend their policies Or the Citizens supporting them?


Cricket, Politics, Movies are our biggest entertainers and actors in each industry are our Heroes and Gods.


Is Travelling and Vacationing, a break from Work Or breakout from Work?


When we always crave for Hotel Food, why do we find peace with daily food at home?


Why are always other Women/Men, more attractive than your own?


When you have to define/introduce yourself, do you identify your self with your Profession or Personality or Family?


What do you find most difficult to say: Sorry Or Thank you Or Love You?


Why do we always think we are the Smartest and others are Crazy?


We always feel our problems are bigger and complicated than others.


Why do we feel we deserve more than what life and fate has to offer us?


We want the kind of money power others have, the social life the others have, life style others have, health others have.


Why do we always become philosophical, emotional and Frank when we are drunk?


Seek inspiration from others Or be an inspiration yourself.


Do you want to gain knowledge on morality, righteousness by reading what others have written, based on their own perceptions Or learn morals based on our own life experiences?


In our line of work, do we do the job that we enjoy the most Or do we do a job that we are most efficient at Or do we do a job that the Company benefits the most from?


Why does all the oldies keep wishing for their death soon? Do they know it will be better in after life?


Nityanandas, Sadhgurus, Oshos, Modis of the world have proven that good oratory skills and holding the pulse of the people seeking, will always find millions of awestruck clapping hands.


Why do I expect you to like what I like, and see you in bad light if you don't like what I like?


Why do people put up Gyan and Philosophies (Mostly Forwarded) on FB and WhatsApp Status? Is it to indirectly convey a message to someone? Or is it to preach others based on Forwarded Gyan?


Do I also give Gyan in my writings? I think its just a space where I vomit my thoughts out.
