According to a recent study, blogs, which appears more frequently on search engines, are between 300 to more than 1500 words long. It also says blogs of more than 1000 words are frequently picked up and shared than blogs of shorter length. I agree that this study depends more on the population of readers that share blogs on social platform like twitter. The study also said that to keep up with the word length, the writers definitely feel the pressure, and that is not a healthy option for writers. The blogging is more about sharing your thoughts and ideas freely with others, although a professional and commercial aspect is associated with most of it. Imagine, if the thought process results in a 2000 words long blog, and blogger shrink it down to make it more popular, it may end up in a different piece of work from the original. Similarly, if one produces a blog of 200 words only, he shouldn't try to stretch it to more than 1000 words, which can compromise the content and ideas. I ...

Gumption- It's really a unique word, and a fascinating one too. The word really impressed me. I heard it recently in the movie 'The Holiday', where an elder character suggested the protagonist to have gumption to live a good life. The origin of this word has been mentioned to be of early 18th century (originally Scots). The dictionary meaning of gumption is "shrewd or spirited initiative and resourcefulness". Some of the synonyms which helps to understand the meaning are "initiative, resourcefulness, ingenuity, inventiveness, cleverness, shrewdness, acumen". Another meaning or definition which I personally like is "the ability to decide what is the best thing to do in a particular situation, and to do it with energy and determination". In other words "the strong will and determination to do something". Many a time, in your life, gumption acts as a prerequisite to handle or face a situation, but not everyone is lucky to have it. If o...

As an adult, every individual is entitled to independent thinking, decisions, and actions. However, if consequences of these thoughts and actions turn up against you in a certain point of life, you land up in a situation, where guilty dominates and blurs your mind.  It makes you feel bad and you regret your actions done in the past. In short, it becomes an ugly situation. You start thinking low of yourself. You feel awkward, thinking about what the others will think of you. You start regretting why did you commit the mistake in the first place. You start thinking of ifs and buts of that scenario. It makes you feel so bad that ultimately you are disheartened and get stressed up and who knows it might affect your health. But the thought to ponder upon is, whether it's the action or opinion of others, which one is exactly disturbing. If you stop thinking about others, maybe, it will hurt any more or lesser at least. Also, whatever was the case, you are the one who thought and acted ...

Days are high or days are low So are the feelings they actually show Hard or soft, whatever life blow Sadness or happiness, either will grow But, your perception is always dying to bow You never know what life will throw But, deep inside you always seems to know The toughest part is to say yes or no Whether to take it fast or little slow Whether to keep it high or somewhat low Or it's best to go with the flow Days are high or days are low -hari-ar-cane
