from a Guardian article by Arundhati Roy about the covid crisis in India titled ‘We are witnessing a crime against humanity’. it’s a free read and it’s also an excellent good read for anyone who wants to understand the magnitude of the issue and how deeprooted it is because it isn’t just the virus it’s a number of things that’s wrong with the entire system of government. the leading party is at fault and it has been for multiple years now for more crimes and human rights violations than it’s even possible to imagine. so please take 5 mins out of your day and read it, i promise you it’s worthwhile.

you don't need to be productive all the time. you deserve to take breaks. you don't need to try and fill every small gap with something productive to do. you are allowed to just sit on the bus and stare out of the window or listen to music or whatever you'd like, there's no need for you to use every small moment for revising or learning. you are allowed to use all those moments to just relax and breathe, and you should.
my blog is, and always will be, a safe place for people who are not confident in their english speaking abilities. you will never be judged or mocked here.
“Jealousy is perhaps the most involuntary of all strong emotions. It steals consciousness, it lies deeper than thought. It is always there, like a blackness in the eye, it discolours the world.” - Iris Murdoch, The Sea, The Sea
