A friend of a friend committed suicide a few days ago. From the outset she didn't seem like someone who had any extraordinary problems. We all have things we're dealing with right? The closer to her you were, the more social layers you bypassed the more you could tell that there were some real demons he was dealing with. The worst of all were the ones he fought alone at night. Suicide is like cancer. Everyone thinks it won’t affect them or anyone they know, until it does. Suicide stems from depression and there is a process of decay that takes place within a person’s character that leads to them taking their life. It’s a real problem in our society. To most of us the first thing that crosses our mind is, why aren't they thankful for what they have rather than concentrating on the negatives in life. Surely everyone goes through ups and downs. Some of us think, why are they being ungrateful to God? There's people out there who don't have food and drink and ar...

Let’s face it; any job is stressful. Money makes the world go ’round, and working to earn enough money to survive, or maintain a lifestyle, however luxurious or not, is a source of daily struggle for everyone. While money concerns are not the sole source of stress in one’s profession, they are a large one, but there are other factors that make a job stressful; long hours, high client demand, and the emotional trauma of the job. While everyone deals with stress on the job, even in high amounts, on a daily basis many people are able to deal with and overcome this stress one way or another. There are some professions with higher stress levels than others, however, and sadly, there are workers within those professions that do not deal with the stress and demands of their job as successfully as others. These are the ten professions with the highest suicide rates in the world. 10. Scientists - Perhaps a surprise on this list, but the work of a scientist can be quite ...

Let us sacrifice our today so that our children can have a better tomorrow.” – A. P. J. Abdul Kalam In this competitive era, everybody is embroiled in a race of going ahead of others, making a shining career, and securing a future. With the population going up and resources declining, this competition is further toughening. The lack of a social security system has forced most of the aspirants to become opportunists and careerists. However, we still have selfless souls that see beyond their individual selves. The world is never without people who uphold the highest ideals of human life and follow them, no matter how much it costs their personal interest. The person under discussion here is one such great being – Roman Saini. Dr. Roman Saini is an Indian educator, MBBS from AIIMS and an Ex-IAS officer. One of the youngest to join Indian civil services, Dr. Saini left his job and devoted himself to his free education initiative “Unacademy”, which is now quite popular among ...
