My view on Language, Culture

LANGUAGE

TAMIL is my mother tongue. I am quite happy to call myself a Tamilian. But in this blog, I'm not going to talk about a specific language; instead, I'd want to convey my general thoughts.

As we all know, language is a medium through which one can express one's feelings, emotions, knowledge, and so on. For each individual, their mother tongue (primarily) or the language mastered with enthusiasm since childhood is more valuable and comfortable.

I respect all languages, because the beauty of a language is only recognized by those who use it.

My Personal experience (When I was in Hyderabad)

When I was in a place where I couldn't use Tamil, I missed it. I learned about the significance of language and its impact on us. Of course, we can express ourselves in English, but let me present it to you this way.

In general, our thoughts will be in our mother tongue, regardless of the language we use. Agreed. When we visit a place for a short time, speaking another language may make us feel more at ease, but when we live somewhere for a long time and no one speaks our language, it does not feel right. 

Because once we start making friends and want to communicate something personal, we will begin to miss our native language. Suddenly, we will fall in love with the vocabulary, slang, and rhythm of our mother tongue, among other things. To put it another way, Tamil is in my blood. As a result, I ended up teaching them Tamil.

Culture

People from all across the world follow a variety of cultures. Culture is a 'way of life' for groups of people, as we all know. Everything our family does, we do as well. We adore our culture since it has been a part of our lives since childhood and is so recognizable to us. The same is true for everyone on our planet.

I've always wanted to travel the world and learn about different cultures. We only have one life, therefore let us enjoy and cherish as much as we can.

Nandi Hills - Let's Decode India #2

Nandi Hills is the topic of this week's Let's Decode India blog. To put it in simple terms, Nandi Hills is just a paradise on Earth. This is a location that should not be missed by everyone. Nandi Hills: Nandi Hills  is an ancient hill fortress built by  Ganga Dynasty and later enlarged and strengthened by Tipu Sultan in southern India, in the  Chikkaballapur district   of  Karnataka   state. It is 10 km from Chickballapur town and approximately 60 km from Bengaluru . The hills are near the town Nandi. In traditional belief, the hills are the origin of the Arkavathy river, Ponnaiyar River, Palar River, Papagni and Penna River. Why special? When I see a sky full of clouds, I always imagine and fantasize about what it would be like to be above them, looking down on them from above. When I learn about this place, it feels like a dream come true for me. And just thinking of seeing the sunrise there makes my heart skip a beat. As a result, I'm dying ...

Lockdown Life

Due to the Covid situation many of us were forced to stay at home for our own safety. Most people feels like they are going through a worst phase of life and they are not able to do what they want. Ofcourse yes this is the worst phase but we can make this a good one.  HOW  I see this phase as an opportunity to each and everyone who are currently doing something not out of their interest but for the sake of doing it. Many of us just landed in jobs just to earn but where is the passion, that is the question we have to ask to ourselves. So use this lockdown time effectively. Even if your passion is to travel around the world, I think this the right time to save, plan and decide how to do it so that once everything is back to normalcy you can just fly high. HOW TO FIND  OUR PASSION Just take a break of 2-3 days from your actual life and do what you love the most, like watching movies series or drawing etc.. and clear your mind. Then Ask yourself the following What is Happines...

Covid 19

  COVID 19 has been haunting us around for over a year. We initially assumed it was just a little issue that would pass quickly.  Today, however, the situation is different. The majority of things are out of our control, and we are receiving awful news every minute and seeing innocent people struggle everywhere. Most of us are getting emotionally disturbed and worried because we have never faced something like this before. There are a lot of things going through our heads right now. First and foremost, we are more concerned about our family than we are about ourselves. We make an effort to keep them safe and cautious. Then we're worried about our jobs, our friends, not going outside, our future, our lives, and so on. We feel that the days of planning something new and exploring are far gone. We see the same people every day and spend the majority of our time alone. Then there's the fact that we're worrying about Covid patients all over the world, individuals we don't ev...

Life

We will realize the beauty of life once we get to know this. To me life is based on what I learned, realized, saw, felt for the past 21 years. For each and everyone life is totally different. The good in one's life can be bad in others, it's all based on their exposure culture etc. For example living together is considered to be a sin here but in some other place it's just a part of their life. It's based on their exposure and experiences.  Another key point is that we cannot understand the lives of others unless we have shared them. What is life?  Everything around us has been built solely to make human life easier. Let's give it an open thought. Pure air, food and water is enough to live here. It is that simple. But everything around us is just complicated. Life is full of promotions, discoveries, inventions, right, wrong, good, bad, first, last, gold, bronze, upper, lower blah blah blah. Life is actually not this.  There is no right or wrong in this world. It is ...
