I have been asked by so many of you if I’ll take writing up as a career. Well, to be honest, writing and makeup are my hobbies. Something that I do only when I am bored or free. Medicine, on the other hand, is bread and butter for me. I will be contributing in a few books this year, might even co-author a book next … Continue reading No caption needed
Today, on world health day, I have written something that is very close to my heart. Mental illness goes unnoticed because we have associated it with craziness and madness. Any mood deviations should be brought under check, in time. People are taking their lives, because no matter how worthy they are, depression and anxiety makes them feel like a piece of trash. The worst part … Continue reading World health day.
I know people love Days, especially the ones when they can celebrate their love and support for women and boast how much they believe in Feminism. BUT. Tomorrow, when they go back to their offices, they’ll sexualize their secretaries. When the 30 year old woman gets a better designation than them, they’ll defame and question her ability to stand out. Tomorrow, when a woman will … Continue reading Let’s practice Women’s Day
The exam break made me go completely out of practice. I was lacking motivation to write. Basically, I was having a writer’s block. But I guess, sometimes it’s okay not to be okay.

Prompt writings are such good brain … Continue reading Grizzled Willow Tree.
Somebody called me fat today. And I didn’t feel bad about it. I didn’t feel like starving myself again. I sure as hell didn’t feel like crying. I didn’t feel like sweating out more.

Because I have already made peace with the parts of Tajwar that everybody sees and parts that they will never get to see. 6 long years !!! … Continue reading Hello Confidence

My final exams just got over a day before yesterday. I promise to be very very regular with my blog now. Also, I have missed a lot of works by you people, kindly comment below, so … Continue reading Back after a very long time.
Dear best friend,We haven’t exactly been what they call the ideal `best friends forever’, but we have been with each other through thick and thin. You have seen me evolve. Remember the day when that stupid boy insulted me, and I was so adamant on sticking around with him, it was you who pulled me out of that toxic relationship. You laughed when I cried, … Continue reading Letter to my best friend.
About four years ago, when the video of a baby boy sitting calmly inside an ambulance after a bomb blast in the capital of Syria went viral, I remember very clearly, I wept the entire night. I woke up and called my mother ( as I was in a different city back then ) and told her how lucky we are. How blessed we are … Continue reading What is humanity without hope and compassion?
