If you are dying in an hour, what will you do now?

It takes all my ears and laughter when I hear celebrities committing suicide; for it made me think why are they still not happy with all the money they have in their bank and upon getting golden fames. And while you are standing next to the ATM machine…

It takes all my ears and laughter when I hear celebrities committing suicide; for it made me think why are they still not happy with all the money they have in their bank and upon getting golden fames. And while you are standing next to the ATM machine, five thousand rupees in left hand and your right hand supporting the work against gravity to not let the phone fall from your right ear for you are quarrelling with your father for sending just that much bucks; you never notice that two homeless kids just walk-pass, enjoying the time of their life since they just got 10 rupees. Why so many levels? Just now I realise, happiness is the nothing but having the ability of contentment. How big you are, how small you are, until you are happy with what you have, you will suffer from emptiness in this overpopulated world till your soul departs.

When rejection is more lethal than HIV

December 1, 2017, was the year’s World AIDS Day, and the theme this time was ‘Right to Health’. Only 54% of the adults and 43% of the children with HIV are receiving Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART). The rest are out there – not diagnosed and not on ART. This is a challenge. Additionally, insurance companies often refuse to cover persons with HIV under their health insurance – even when they suffer from non- HIV related ailments. If we are hospitalised for an accident, we have medical insurances to cover our expenses.
