Makeup = Putty?


"Why are you puttying your face like this?" This was a question asked to a well dressed girl who entered her office, wearing makeup. With a pale laughter, she took her laptop out to work. Other girls beside her laughed looking at each other in a double meaning. 

I don't know since when did makeup become a so called 'putty'. Even if you think so, do you think you can ridicule or humiliate someone in the public as simple as it? Putting on makeup is never a bad thing. Girls are not usually wearing makeup to attract boys however. Its just about their personal choice and happiness.


Also, putting on makeup is not an easy task. Its not as easy as brushing putty on the wall. You should have the proper knowledge about wearing it, the cosmetic products, etc. Yes, makeup is definitely an art!

Many people are still ignorant to think that makeup is being used to 'whiten' the face. Let me ask, do you really think its so? Then why do the film actors like Danai Gurira and Scarlett Johannson wear makeup? To make their face fairer?

Scarlett Johannson


Danai Gurira

First of all, you should understand the fact that a person's skin tone could never be changed anyhow. So, stop mixing the essence of racism into this.

Even many girls are not so bad in commenting against someone wearing makeup. Everyone has their own right to do what they like which are not against the manners and laws. And the others does not have any right to question anyone's personal interest just because they don't like it. 

Also, there is no place to discriminate between where someone can/cannot put the makeup. One can wear it on whenever they wanna do, even while sitting simply in the house.


For those who usually say, "you are beautiful without makeup and why do you disguise yourself always!" ; They are not disguing themselves and its not at all because they don't have the confidence in their looks like you think. It is just their personal choice and happiness which really don't hurt or affect anyone. If you don't want to wear it, don't do it. But stop compelling the same on others. Let them do what they wish for!

Wishing you all to have a good day.

Thanking You :)

When attachment hurts

The hardest part of attachment isn’t always losing someone - it’s watching them drift away because of life. Not because they’ve stopped caring, not because they’ve changed as a person, but because circumstances stepped in. Distance, busy days, different paths. Suddenly, the friend who once felt like your everyday comfort now feels like a guest in your life. And it hurts in ways words can’t carry. The calls grow fewer, the replies slower, the laughter shorter. You tell yourself, 'they still care… it’s just life'. But your heart aches anyway, because attachment makes you sensitive. Every small change feels like a loud silence. Yet, even through the ache, you can’t deny how beautiful it is when such friendships first arrive in your life. The ones you never expected - born out of a random moment, a casual conversation, or sheer coincidence - end up carving the deepest spaces in your heart. These friends make the world feel lighter, like you’ve been handed a quiet gift you didn’t ev...

But still..

It is hard, but still… we go on. It is heavy, but still… we carry it. It is uncertain, but still… we hope. It is painful, but still… we love again. Because somehow, deep down, we know - life doesn’t stop for the storms. And maybe that’s what makes it beautiful. It’s not always easy to wake up and try again when everything inside you wants to give up. But you still do - quietly, stubbornly, beautifully. You may not even realize it, but that’s courage. Not the loud, movie kind; the soft, everyday kind that says, "I’ll face today anyway.” It is confusing - when people you cared for drift away, when plans fall apart, when dreams take longer than they should. But still… you find small reasons to smile; a good song, a sunset, a message from someone who remembers. That’s life’s way of saying, “Keep going, you’re not done yet.” It is tiring to be the strong one all the time. To be the listener, the comforter, the one who understands while silently needing to be understood. But still… you ...

The absurdity of suffering

Bad times don't just "feel bad". They feel like suffocation. Like something heavy pressing on your chest that no one else can see. I don't try to make suffering prettier than it is. Pain is real, and when you're in it, advice feels hollow. And yet, something strange happens with time. Some of the deepest insights I've seen in people's lives didn't come wrapped in joy and clarity. They came from heartbreak, from disappointments, from nights that felt endless. There's something absurd about how much we learn from suffering, how pain becomes a kind of teacher no one asked for, but everyone meets eventually. The existential lens does not sugarcoat things. Life has no built-in meaning. We suffer, often without reason, and sometimes we break. But within that absurdity lies freedom; we get to choose how we respond. The suffering may not be meaningful in itself, but what we do with it can be. That's where the human spirit becomes something fierce and b...
