Do We Mirror The Diverse & Inclusive Nature

When I hear about diversity and inclusion, one thing that strikes my mind is our mighty nature. Mother Nature bestows us with a myriad of life lessons that teach humankind many aspects of living life with oneness and harmony. Nature is a beautiful example of diversity n inclusion whereby different species of flora and fauna have equal space to flourish.

The more diverse the ecosystem, the more its capability to survive any calamities and disturbances as each resource of nature balances each other.

What is the special significance of color RED on Christmas

With Christmas chimes already ringing high, the environment is filled with enthusiasm and oneness. Sparkling rows of red and green lights indicate the festival's onset. Everywhere we find various things in stores in shades of red, be it clothing range, home decor articles, or even edible items that wear the Christmas colors. We often have an implication, or to put it more correctly, we associate each tangible and intangible thing with different colors. For example, when we talk about love, compassion color red flashes in our mind, or red strawberries look so tempting. The color red also symbolizes the color of Christmas eve. Apart from red, the colors related to Christmas are gold, blue, green, and white.

Influenza: A cause of concern for both children and adults

“Health is not valued until sickness comes.” This beautiful quote by Thomas Fuller is a gentle reminder to all of us. As parents, we are always vigilant toward our kids’ health, telling them to be careful and follow hygiene protocols so they don’t fall sick. But have we ever pondered, do only children need to be careful? Shouldn’t adults be careful too? 

Because when we fall sick, the chances of our child getting that infection from us is higher. Not only do children need to #FightAgainstFlu, but adults also need to.

Before we get to how you can protect yourself from the flu, let us understand what is flu or influenza and how it can affect our health.

Best Solutions to pipes and Bath Fittings with Oriplast

Newness is what we look for after a long mundane routine, be it a new hobby or new clothing, or a new décor.  Adding a little bit of change in furniture settings or a few additions in the home can bring a lot of freshness. John Saldino aptly quoted, “A house is much more than a mere shelter—it should lift us emotionally and spiritually”. Home makes us feel the comfort we look for and lift our energy levels instantly. One of the major parts of the home is a bathroom, which requires timely upliftment and maintenance too.

With the increasing hardness of water and supplies from a water tanker, the quality of water is declining day by day, and for the same, we need to replace the bath fittings often. To have a well-fitted bathroom is not a luxury but a necessity to lead an undisturbed life.

Be it new year resolutions or any other challenge you take up in life, do it with realistic goals and approaches. Many post a message about the goals on social media and when the haze fades out we see that the sincerity towards reaching the goals was not strong. Don't take challenges or resolutions in a herd, decide what is best for yourself and then work towards it relentlessly.
