In a world where validation often comes in the form of likes, comments, and nods of approval, it's natural to crave attention. We post our achievements, share our thoughts, and eagerly await the flood of recognition. However, there's a peculiar dance that happens when the attention finally knocks on our door. It's almost as if, in the midst of our yearning, we've also become adept at evading the spotlight we once so desperately sought. The notifications pile up, but we find ourselves scrolling past them, feigning indifference or even pretending we didn't notice. Why does this happen? I think it's the vulnerability that comes with attention – the exposure of our true selves to the scrutiny of others. In our quest for authenticity, we're learning to derive self-worth from within rather than relying on external affirmations. How do you navigate this delicate balance?

True. We seek attention coz we forget that our thoughts and mind is in our control. I am sharing this thought, I might get a like or not but does that really affect me? This feeling is in my control. I am the owner of my mind. It will think or overthink the way I want. People will say it's easy to say but not easy to implement but i say we already follow it but don't realise it. Do you shout in public? Now do you shout at your place? Now who tells the mind to control that emotion? You got the answer

hey guys, i seriously think it's not validation what we are looking for but sharing on social platforms does impact your skills, it helps in where you are going wrong, i feel newer generation parents are less bothered about their kids performances, due to somewhere newer generation always craves for direction and they start sharing on social platforms and if they get noticed by society then they feel satisfied and eventually it becomes addiction so does is love and affection, you cannot live without that right, so I personally feel this is why everyone is into social platforms 😂

Popular opinionOverrated things we might stop caring about since 2025 (post 3) 3. Keeping up with the Sharmas Today we have got internet under our fingertips. This helps us to find our lost bosom friends from childhood. But, on another hand, we know everything about a person we wouldn't have known in real life and that was also not needed आज इंटरनेट हमारी उंगलियों के नीचे है। यह हमें बचपन के अपने खोए हुए घनिष्ठ मित्र मिल जाते हैं। लेकिन, दूसरी ओर, हम उस व्यक्ति के बारे में सब कुछ जानते हैं जिसे हम वास्तविक जीवन में नहीं जानते होंगे और इसकी आवश्यकता भी नहीं थी These days when we open our social media accounts to see everyone's life update. And these updates are usually the good ones, about their achievements and how many years of anniversary they are celebrating of their relationship. But, the truth is nobody is having a lovey-dovey life. They do have their fair share of lemons. But, that is not something that gets updated on social media. आजकल हम सोशल मीडिया अकाउंट खोलते हैं हर किसी की लाइफ अपडेट देखने के लिए। और ये अपडेट आमतौर पर अच्छे होते हैं, उनकी उपलब्धियों के बारे में और वे अपने रिश्ते की कितनी सालगिरह मना रहे हैं। लेकिन, सच तो यह है कि किसी की भी जिंदगी प्यारी-प्यारी नहीं है। उनके पास नींबू का उचित हिस्सा है। लेकिन, यह ऐसी चीज़ नहीं है जो सोशल मीडिया पर अपडेट हो जाती है। And this makes us feel bad and mad to self. और यह हमें स्वयं के प्रति बुरा और क्रोधित महसूस कराता है। Not using any social media at all might not be a sound option for a lot us but, we can take few measures. किसी भी सोशल मीडिया का उपयोग न करना हमारे लिए एक अच्छा विकल्प नहीं हो सकता है, लेकिन हम कुछ उपाय कर सकते हैं। So, how are you planing to stop comparing yourself by looking Sharma Ji's beti's facebook and instagram profile? 😉 तो, आप शर्मा जी की बेटी की फेसबुक और इंस्टाग्राम प्रोफ़ाइल देखकर अपनी तुलना करना कैसे बंद करने की योजना बना रहे हैं? 😉 #NewYear2025 #NewBeginning #freshstart

3Kota Doria, also known as Kota Dori or Kota Masuria, is a distinctive handwoven fabric that originates from Kota in Rajasthan, India. It's renowned for its fine texture, sheer quality, and delicate weave. The fabric is traditionally made using a blend of cotton and silk threads, resulting in a lightweight, translucent cloth that's highly breathable and comfortable, especially in hot climates. Kota Doria textiles are characterized by their distinctive square-check patterns, known as "khat" or "khej" in Hindi. These checks are a defining feature of the fabric and are created through a unique weaving technique. The history of Kota Doria dates back to the 17th century when it was patronized by the royal families of Rajasthan. Over time, it has gained popularity not only in India but also internationally, appreciated for its elegant appearance and versatility. Kota Doria fabric is often used to create sarees, dupattas (scarves), salwar suits, and other traditional Indian garments, showcasing its sheer beauty and timeless appeal.more
