Vaishnavi reddy

 She was always insecure, She never knew if a girl wants to be her friend if it's because she likes her or if she is just a tag-along who makes her feel better, Family get-togethers are supposed to bring comfort but she was scared to go because she was always picked at for being the fat cousin and she worried that her parents might feel embarrassed, She never felt she was enough, When a boy talks to her she wondered if they wanted to be her friend or if they were trying to get to their "skinny friends", She often felt embarrassed when her friends put up her pics on social media because she thought she might be made fun of even if the friend had clear intentions, Unable to process such heavy feelings, she started eating them, and she became even more fat,  When her skinny friends complained to her about them being fat like OMG I have thick thighs etcetera she felt offended, guilty, embarrassed, and insecure. When her friends introduced her to their guy friends she felt eve...

 Not my circus, not my monkeys. But I definitely know the clowns!! I feel betrayed, I feel awful,  I feel silly,  because I trusted you, I thought you would stay loyal to me, I thought you'll make me feel like myself, I thought you were the one, I thought you understood me, I thought you knew better than hurting me. I "thought" all these, but now I know better than letting you hurt me. I thought you were my friend ,  but now you are just a clown .

Our souls have conversations words could never describe. I know that you don't know me, neither do I but I know for sure that the day we meet we are gonna light up our lives with happiness. I know that we are gonna have thousands of dates talking about hundreds of things while traveling among ten countries. Life gets tough as we grow old but it gives us the strength to face it when we are with each other. We are even going to have tough times but we are gonna resolve them because that's what soulmates do. Believing in love and holding on to it needs patience and that patience is gonna come when we meet the right person. In this generation, it's hard to find love. You are considered lucky even if you have been in love once. Love is hard to find and tough to maintain but once it's done everything falls into place. You need inspiration and a goal to wake up in the morning the same way you need happiness and hope for tomorrow in order to sleep peacefully. Love is not someth...

 There is no love and responsibility in the world as pure as a dad's. Pappa  you are the sunshine to my day, the colors in my rainbow, the reason I am what I am, the wind behind my wings. The sacrifices you make and the pain you tolerate is behind my imagination. You irritate me like a sibling,  you care enough for me that you sacrifice things for my happiness Nothing I do ever equals what you have done for me. Even when things are not going accordingly you keep a smile on your face and say that this too shall pass,  I have never seen a down-to-earth, sensible, sensitive, loving, and sacrificing guy like you. You are my idol and will always be <3 I love you more than anyone in the world and the choices you make for me are and will always be the best.

 You were there with me when I was mentally unstable, You were there with me when I felt low, You were there with me when I needed someone by my side, You were there with me in my happiness and sadness, You saw the real me when no one couldn't, You consoled me when I panicked, You made me love myself, You made me think about myself first, You showed me the true meaning of love, You made me feel the luckiest, You made me feel the prettiest, 157 contacts on my phone and I chose You to share my feelings, I wish YOU and I were WE, I wish I didn't have to hide my feelings for You, I wish WE were together forever.

This was the story I read as part of English Literature in my 10th class. Movies make us cry but this was the kind of story that made me cry. My eyes filled with tears while reading this story.  Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan, the unsung hero of the 26/11 Mumbai Attacks. He was an officer in the Indian Army who served in the 51  Special Action Group of NSG and led the other soldiers. He was martyred on 28th November 2008 at the age of 31.  He saved over 14 Hostages from the Hotel Taj Mahal in Operation Black Tornado. In the terrorist encounter, he was shot in the back which proved fatal. His last words to his commandos were "Do Not come up, I will handle them". His daring attitude encouraged the other NSG soldiers to complete the mission started by him, they successfully completed the mission. He was an exceptional person who was daring, selfless, and a leader. He is an inspiration to each and every person. His sacrifice though proved fatal, left an impression in the history ...
