THANK YOU DAVID FOR THE LESSON! ๐Ÿฅนโค๏ธ Life is full of lessons. Last week, on a flight from Goa to Mumbai, I learned one. In the picture is David. When David boarded the flight, many people looked at him because he was overweight. He came and sat across the aisle from me. In the middle of the flight, he opened his bag, took out a huge collection of chocolates and sweets, and then walked towards the washroom. I exchanged a glance with the gentleman sitting next to him and said, โ€œHe shouldnโ€™t eat so much sweets and chocolates!โ€ This was said out of concern! The gentleman smiled and replied, โ€œWell, thatโ€™s probably why he looks the way he does.โ€ A little while later, David came back, gathered all the sweets, and handed them over to the cabin crew. ๐Ÿฅน I was surprised. So I told him, โ€œI must confess, I thought you were going to eat all those chocolates yourself, and thatโ€™s why you were overweight.โ€ He smiled and said, โ€œ I donโ€™t blame you for thinking like that! I have a medical condition. But I used to work with airlines, and I know what cabin crew members go through every day. So I like to bring them something sweet whenever I travel.โ€ What an outstanding human being. And what a lesson for me. How quickly we judge people. How easily we create stories about them without knowing anything about their lives.๐Ÿ˜ณ Thank you, David, for reminding me that kindness is often hidden behind appearances, and that the best people are sometimes the ones we understand the least. I asked him for a pic! He obliged! Thank you for the lesson my friend!โค๏ธ #LifeLessons #Encounters

A 3-Minute Nap Almost Cost an Honest Man His Dignity 2:13 AM โ€” Silver Oak Residency Security guard Ramkishan sat quietly at the main gate. For the first time in years, he accidentally dozed off. Just for three minutes. At that exact moment, the society chairman's son drove in. He noticed Ramkishan sleeping, smirked, pulled out his phone, and started recording. "Look at this guy," he said. "Getting paid to sleep while we're trusting him with our safety." Within minutes, the video was posted in the society WhatsApp group. By morning, the comments were pouring in: โŒ "Fire him immediately." โŒ "This is pure negligence." โŒ "People like him don't deserve these jobs." More than 150 messages. Not a single person asked why he had fallen asleep. 6:05 AM Ramkishan was summoned to the society office. The chairman slammed his hand on the table. "Do you even want this job?" Ramkishan quietly removed his cap. His eyes were red and swollen with exhaustion. Then he spoke softly. "Sir, I started work yesterday at 2 PM." "The other guard was sick, so the agency asked me to cover his shift too. They offered me an extra โ‚น300." "At around 1 AM, I chased away three boys trying to climb the back wall." "Then, at 1:45, a resident asked me to warm milk for Bruno, her dog." "At 2:10, I finally sat down for a minute... and my eyes closed." The room fell silent. "My salary is โ‚น12,000 a month." "โ‚น4,000 goes toward rent." "โ‚น2,000 I send to my parents in the village." "The rest supports my wife and our two children." "My son studies in the 9th grade." "Every day I tell him, 'Study hard, son. Otherwise, life may force you to stand awake at someone else's gate forever.'" He paused. Then he looked up. "You recorded my three minutes of weakness." "But in eight years, nobody recorded the thousands of nights I stayed awake protecting this society." "If human beings were never meant to get tired... God would have made us machines." No one in the room could meet his eyes. That evening, a new notice appeared on the society bulletin board: โœ”๏ธ Two guards per shift โœ”๏ธ Maximum 8-hour duty โœ”๏ธ Salary increased to โ‚น18,000 โœ”๏ธ Overtime paid separately Additional cost per flat: โ‚น200 per month And at the bottom, one sentence: "We can hire security, but we cannot buy a human being's life." 10:00 PM For the first time in a long while, Ramkishan was heading home early. As he reached the gate, the chairman's son stopped him. He removed his helmet and spoke quietly. "Uncle... I deleted the video." "And from tomorrow, your night tea is on me." Ramkishan smiled. Sometimes people are not careless. Sometimes they are simply exhausted. And sometimes, all it takes is one honest conversation to remind us to be human. :::

Dr @swapan55 inherits a Bengal wrecked by financial ruin (โ‚น8 lac crore debt), anti-corporate policies (7,000 companies have taken flight), and insane mismanagement (โ‚น5,800 crore for Minority Affairs versus โ‚น80 crore for Science & Tech). But if anyone can, he can. Best wishes.

The desperation of the cockroaches surprised me. Even I was ready to give Dharmendra Pradhan a pass. The man has failed. Scrutiny is deserved. But then a question appeared. Why this desperation? Why Boston? Why Germany? Why now? Why June 2026? So, I started digging. What I found had little to do with a paper leak. It had everything to do with money. A lot of money. Three decisions were sitting on Pradhan's table. All scheduled for July - Aug 2026. All capable of reshaping Indian education. Decision 1. NCERT. New textbooks. Classes 9 to 12. The new Mathematics curriculum introduces the Sulba Sutras. A dangerous idea. Because it tells Indian children something many would rather hide. Mathematics lived here. Long before Europe claimed ownership of the story. The new History curriculum goes further. The Aryan Invasion Theory. Out. The Sindhu-Sarasvati Civilisation. In. India's own story. Returned to India. Decision 2. May 15, 2026. CBSE issues a circular. 3 languages mandatory from Class 9. At least two must be Indian languages. Decision 3. K. Radhakrishnan Committee reforms for NTA. Decentralised examinations. Technology-sovereign architecture. No single point of failure. No single point of manipulation. Now ask the real question. Who loses if all three happen? Start with academia. Harvard. SOAS London. Columbia. Chicago. Departments built around the Aryan Migration framework. Annual grants at stake. ~ $500 million. Then foreign universities. UK. US. Australia. Together earning roughly $3.7 billion annually from Indian students. Around 1.8 million of them. Fix India's system. Build confidence. Restore self-worth. And that pipeline starts shrinking. Then comes the coaching industry. Manufacture anxiety. Sell hope. Repeat. Worth โ‚น58,000 crore today. Projected at โ‚น1,33,995 crore by 2028. Built on scarcity. Built on English-dominated examinations. Decentralise NTA. Expand Indian languages. And the economics begin to wobble. Allen. Aakash. FIITJEE. BYJU'S. Resonance. Drishti IAS. Thousands of smaller players. Global investors have poured billions into this ecosystem. Not for charity. Not for patriotism. For returns. Then comes the NGO ecosystem. The outrage industry. The grant circuit. A narrative that survives only if India remains intellectually dependent. Teach children their own history. Accurately. And the narrative starts suffocating. Funding follows narratives. Funding leaves with them too. Add it together. Conservative estimate. Nearly โ‚น3 lakh crore at risk. More than $35 billion. This is a business survival fight. That is what India was about to dismantle. That is why the meme factory found fresh energy. That is why the protest lands on June 6. Before the academic year begins. Before the reforms become irreversible. Pradhan may go. Perhaps he should. That is a separate debate. But the policies are the real battlefield. Always were. Most people are still watching the headline. And missing the war.

Congratulations to Praggnanandhaa on becoming the first Indian to win the Norway Chess tournament - one of the ultimate tests of endurance, intellect and temperament in the world of chess. To defeat the worldโ€™s absolute best on one of chessโ€™s grandest stages is a remarkable feat. But what makes it even more special is the spirit with which Pragg plays. Fearless - Focused - Deeply Indian. @rpraggnachess, you represent the confidence of a rising, youthful India. The entire nation is incredibly proud of you, Pragg. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณโ™Ÿ๏ธ

Esha Singh fired a world record score of 43 to clinch gold in the Womenโ€™s 25m Pistol event at the ISSF World Cup in Munich. There are many videos of the winning moment. I like this one because her eyes are like lasers. Unwavering. Unforgiving. You donโ€™t want to come in her way. But what struck me most was that she looked less like an athlete and more like a yogi in deep meditation. You can tell from the way she squeezes the trigger that this sport is ultimately not about the pistol. Itโ€™s about mastering the mind, the breath and the nerves. And what a pleasure it is to see an Indian sportsperson not merely win on the world stage, but shatter a world record while doing so. Congratulations, Esha. Records are made to be broken. Including your own. Keep pushing the boundaries. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ Video courtesy: @TheKhelIndia

Rahul Gandhi, Swara Bhasker and several left-liberal voices hailed Mohammad Deepak as a hero and backed campaigns for his gym. Months later, Deepak admits the money collected through the membership drive was spent on personal expenses like EMIs and school fees instead of gym operations and rent. Now, with his gym facing a crisis, the episode has raised questions about both the support campaign and the use of the collected funds. writes @immortalsoulin opindia.com/2026/05/mohammadโ€ฆ

Proud of you Arjun. Keep going. Best wishes
Well done, Arjun. โค๏ธ Proud of the way youโ€™ve carried yourself through this season, always believing in your ability, staying patient, working hard quietly, and remaining positive despite having to wait for your opportunity till the very last match. Cricket tests patience as much as skill, and you handled both beautifully today. Keep your feet on the ground, and continue being in love with the game like you always have. Love you always.๐Ÿ‘

Good insights on who @mipaltan should retain and let go

Shocking.
May 20
Her name was Shubha Shankaranarayan. She was 21 years old, a law student in Bengaluru. She was in a relationship with Arun Varma, her 19 year old college junior. Her father did not approve and arranged her engagement to someone else. On November 30, 2003, Shubha got engaged to B.V. Girish, a 27 year old software engineer. His family celebrated. His future seemed set. Three days later, Shubha called Girish and suggested they spend some time together before the wedding. She proposed dinner and then a stop near HAL Airport to watch planes take off from the viewpoint on Inner Ring Road. He agreed. While Girish stood looking at the runway, three men attacked him from behind with a motorcycle shock absorber. Shubha stood nearby and screamed at the attackers to stop, pretending to be shocked. Girish suffered severe head injuries. He died in hospital the next morning. His family filed a police complaint. At first, investigators found nothing. Girish had no enemies, and suspicion did not fall on Shubha because the engagement had happened just days earlier. Then police reviewed the engagement video. Shubha appeared unhappy and disinterested throughout. Her expressions did not match someone who had just gotten engaged. Investigators dug deeper. They discovered that Shubha had made 73 phone calls and exchanged numerous messages with Arun Varma on the day of the murder. When confronted with the evidence, she confessed. The murder had been planned even before the engagement. Shubha wanted to be with Arun Varma, so she, Arun, and two hired men planned to kill Girish. Girish had been engaged for just three days. In July 2010, all four were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. The Karnataka High Court later upheld the verdict. In 2025, the Supreme Court also upheld all four life sentences. The Supreme Court observed: "Shubha chose a tragic and unacceptable route to address her personal issues, which led to the loss of a young and innocent life." He went to watch planes take off with his fiancee. He never came home. Repost this. Some stories should never disappear.

Saw this young delivery boy in our society this morning, carrying quick commerce deliveries. Had a brief chat with him. He is a college student in Bhubaneswar, working part-time on a delivery platform. Sundays are full work days for him since college remains off. He lost his father a year ago, who worked in a small private company. No pension for the mother, no savings left for the family. But, this young boy chose responsibility over excuses. Today, he is managing his studies and expenses in Bhubaneswar through hard work and dignity, while also sending some money back to his mother, who lives in a village about 150 km away. Stories like these remind you how many silent fighters walk among us every day.

There is so much recent negativity about @airindia that I want to put this out. I have taken 3 flights on @airindia in the last three days. On Wednesday:Rome to Del On Thursday: Del to Bom On Friday: Bom to Del In every single case the flight was on time. The inflight service was warm & efficient. Luggage came relatively quickly (quickest in Del) The check in was entirely painless I donโ€™t think frequent travellers care as much as others about airline food but if you think thatโ€™s important then I had a very good dinner on Rome to Del. On the international sector I flew one of the older Dreamliners & I am not one of those aeroplane nerds but I thought it was very comfortable. Itโ€™s second nature for many of us to bitch about @airindia but itโ€™s one of only two international airlines I fly regularly. The other is @emirates which admittedly is far better ( & far more expensive) but it is the best airline in the world so itโ€™s better than every other carrier anyway. The Tatas need to hold their nerve. There is a lot that is good about @airindia that rarely gets acknowledged @TataCompanies

Excellent analogy
When I saw this video, my first thought was that the earth, very often, sends us messages. This tree, facing constant winds, is still standing, & has neither fallen nor been uprooted. Instead itโ€™s been shaped by it. And developed its own unique aesthetic & identity. We have to recognize & accept that tough times & tragedies are part of the journey. They donโ€™t define us, they simply give us our own unique personalities & capacitiesโ€ฆ #MondayMotivation
