An Old soul trapped in a Millennial's Body 👀

• Is your music library full of songs that were released      decades before you were born???

• Do you feel like an outcast when your friends go out    

  clubbing???

• Do you have a hard time dating because you don’t            understand weird millennial dating habits like                    ghosting???

If you answered with a yes to all these questions, congratulations, my friend, you’re an old-soul... 🙃 

Many people feel like they are an "old soul trapped in a millennial's body," meaning that they have an appreciation for the past, a different outlook on life, and a desire for more meaningful connections than what modern society seems to offer.

Being an old soul means that you feel a connection to a bygone era. You may feel like you were born in the wrong time period or that you would have fit in better in a different era. You might have a fascination with history, literature, or art that is no longer valued in today's world. You may find yourself drawn to the simpler things in life, such as spending time outdoors, reading books, or enjoying quiet moments with loved ones.

But being an old soul in a millennial's body can also be challenging. You may feel like you don't quite fit in with your peers, who are more focused on social media, technology, and material possessions. You may struggle to connect with others on a deeper level, as many people seem more interested in surface-level interactions than in forming meaningful relationships.

However, there are ways to embrace your old soul nature and find a sense of belonging in today's world. Here are a few tips:

🤝🏻Connect with like-minded people: Connecting with others who share your passions can help you feel less isolated and more understood.

🕊️Take time to unplug: Take time to disconnect from your devices and spend time in nature, meditating, or engaging in other activities that allow you to recharge and connect with yourself.

💃Embrace your uniqueness: Don't try to fit in with the crowd if it doesn't feel authentic to you. Embrace your old soul nature and be proud of who you are. 

🫂 Focus on relationships: Instead of trying to make a lot of superficial connections, focus on building deeper relationships with a few people who share your values and interests. 

Being an old soul trapped in a millennial's body can be challenging, but it can also be a gift. 🙌🏻

By embracing your unique perspective and connecting with others who share your passions, you can create a fulfilling and meaningful life that honors your old soul nature.

A unique personality trait 💁🏻‍♀️

Being an introvert is often misunderstood as being shy, anti-social or unapproachable. But in reality, introverts simply thrive in environments that are less stimulating and prefer to recharge by spending time alone or in quiet spaces.

Introverts tend to be introspective, reflective and deep thinkers. They are often observant, analytical and have a great capacity for empathy. Introverts can make excellent listeners and are often skilled at giving thoughtful advice.

While some people may view introverts as lacking in social skills or being antisocial, this is not necessarily the case. Introverts may have smaller social circles, but they tend to have deeper and more meaningful relationships with those they are close to. They may also enjoy socializing, but may feel drained by prolonged periods of interaction and need time to recharge their batteries.

If you are an introvert, it's important to embrace your personality and find ways to thrive in your own way. This may involve finding quiet spaces to work or reflect, seeking out meaningful conversations with close friends, or pursuing hobbies that allow you to recharge and be yourself.

Ultimately, being an introvert is a unique and valuable aspect of your personality that should be celebrated, rather than stigmatized or misunderstood.

Chenab bridge: An engineering Marvel 🙌🏻

🚞The Chenab Bridge, also known as the Chenab River Bridge, is an engineering marvel located in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. 

It is a railway arch bridge that spans the Chenab River at a height of 359 meters above the river bed, making it the highest rail bridge in the world.The bridge is a part of the 111-kilometer-long Katra to Banihal railway line, which is a part of the Jammu-Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Line project undertaken by the Indian Railways. The construction of the bridge began in 2004 and was completed in 2019, taking almost 15 years to complete.

The bridge is designed to withstand high-velocity winds of up to 260 km/hour and seismic activities of up to 8.0 magnitude on the Richter scale.The bridge is constructed using an innovative technique called the "incremental launching method," where the bridge is constructed in segments on both sides of the river and then launched and joined in the middle. This technique helped to reduce the time required for construction and also minimized the impact on the environment.

🚞 The bridge has a sleek and elegant design that blends well with the surrounding landscape. The arch of the bridge is designed in the shape of an "M," which represents the initial of the river Chenab. 🙌🏻

🚞 The construction of the Chenab Bridge is a significant achievement for the Indian Railways and the entire nation. The bridge has not only reduced the travel time between Katra and Banihal but also improved connectivity to the remote areas of Jammu and Kashmir. The bridge has also helped to boost tourism in the region, as it offers breathtaking views of the Chenab River and the surrounding mountains.

In conclusion, the Chenab Bridge is a testament to human ingenuity and engineering excellence. The bridge is an outstanding example of how innovation and determination can overcome even the most challenging of obstacles. It stands as a symbol of progress, connecting people and communities, and ushering in a new era of development in the region.

A Feast to ones eyes 🌼

However not being a big movie or television fan; I have a very strict choice of what I watch on screen. I love to see and listen to quality stuffs.

                   🍂 Zindagi Gulzar Hai 🍂

 What a serial it was. I must admit – I fell in love with Pakistan's TV industry.  🙌🏻

Just in 26 episodes – i.e. approximately 20 Hrs; they had completed the series; but at the end of it; we never felt the story was rushed through or they missed out on anything. It had everything – a good looking Hero; a beautiful Heroine , a rich family and their lifestyle, a lower middle class struggling family and their difficulties, Love and Romance, Ego and misunderstanding, social issues around women and class/status. It was correctly paced. Even without displaying any kind of physical or intimate scenes; one can feel the intense romance between Zaroon and Kashaf. The relationship between siblings, friends, couples, parents and children – everything has been so well portrayed; that one can’t avoid falling in love with every character in the serial.

Role of Kashaf Murtaza was played by Sanam Saeed and she is a normal girl with whom one can easily relate to. Similarly Zaroon Junaid played by Fawad Khan is a character who is a little conservative despite of belonging to a rich class family; Every single person has acted fabulously well. 

After watching Zindagi Gulzar Hai; I can now believe that one can make decent non boring romantic dramas with a lot of intensity without requiring to have any pornographic shots. 

🌼Heartfelt thanks to each and every member of Zindagi Gulzar hai for giving us a memorable episode!🌼

A poet of many shades 📜✍️

Dear Readers,

The writer is a fan of Jaun Elia's writings...

A well known name among aficionados of Urdu literature of the era, Jaun is the most googled Urdu poet. A peerless poet , whose tragedies in his personal life , and unfulfilled love, migration from his home, shaped his poetry, which throbs with grief and pain till today. 

Jaun was famous for his ãñdáz-ē-bäyäñ.. "phrasing", by which he amused the masses, through his writing on various subjects. His poetry emanates from his scholarly intellect that resonates with readers who can find a heart'pining for unrequited love, all coming from the pen of one person. 

I have read most of mushaiaras of Jaun, where he never admitted that he is a poet. In fact jaun believed that poets were jesters. He never liked them much,so he never aspired to be one.Therefore calling Jaun Elia a poet or comparing him with others is actually belittling jaun. 

With this ,I bring you some Jaun Elia shayaris which have touched my heart !  

• Kitne aish se rehte honge , Kitne itraate honge ,

 jaane kaise log woh honge , jo usko bhaate honge ...

• Jo guzaari na ja saki humse, 

Humne woh zindagi guzaari hai ...

• Nahi duniya ko jab parwaah humari , 

Toh phir duniya ki parwah kyun karein hum ? 

• Yeh mujhe chain kyun nahi padhta ..

Ek hi shaqs tha jahaan mein kya ? 

{ With Jaun has just ended Urdu poetry... ✍️

With blood he has created embroidery 🪡 } 

Jaun ! Mujhe ab tera dard samajh aata hai ....🤍
