Mostly Mundane

Book review:

"Mostly Mundane" is a brilliant assortment of brief tales that carry a diverting turn to the regular encounters of life. Every story remains solitary yet shares a typical topic, offering a new point of view on the commonplace.

The stories are short and fresh, and the situations are significant, taking a few insane turns. The author's capacity to rear humour in the absolute most apparently common turned unusual minutes is unparalleled. A similarly particular cast of characters adds to the good times.

The stories made me feel like it was my story. Like ShantiLal any writer who gets stuck or loses money the mindset to recover and make money makes him a jack of all. His conversation with his son and guiding him in his actions was quite intriguing and thought-provoking for how parents need to diverge their kids in their teenage.

The best thing about the tales is that they all have a cut of reality, woven around circumstances you might have experienced in your own life, making them engaging. The humour is unpretentious without being excessively beyond ludicrous.

It is a short and speedy book that can be read on a solitary day. The writer's faultless story and clever composition make it a spectacular read. This fascinating book keeps us snared till the end. The language utilised is basic and straightforward.

In general, "Mostly Mundane" is a tomfoolery, cheerful read loaded with mind and humour. An incredible read for everybody.

Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness by Deekay

 Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness for Combating Overthinking, Achieving Stress Relief, and Attaining Absolute Peace  Deekay | Book Review What is turbulence? Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...

My journey of motherhood| Tips for mothers with ASD children

  My Journey of Motherhood: To date, I remember how I was rushed to the hospital as I was feeling uneasy and could not feel any movement inside the womb. I got hospitalized in an emergency and tests were conducted. I was on a regular checkup by the doctors every hour and after some time I was advised not to eat or drink after this hour. I was too dumb to understand the situation. In the morning, when I woke up the doctor who was handling my case came to check me and bombarded me when I mentioned that I drank a glass of water. His anger had no limits and he scolded the staff for not supervising me properly. In a fraction of a second, a decision was made. I was prepared for my c-section. But I was not mentally prepared for it, I started making lame excuses but to no avail. At last, I was taken in the OT and the process started. I was only able to hear the idle banter of doctors and nurses inside. After some time I heard the first cry of my child and I forgot all my pains. The doctor ...
