“बेलुन आयो, बेलुन !
लाै बेलुन आयो बेलुन !!”
भन्दै हिँड्छन उनीहरू
बेलुन आयो बेलुन भन्दै
भिडमा दौडन्छन् उनीहरू ।
उनीहरू जसबाट सास फेर्न सक्दै गर्दा
हातखुट्टा चाल्न सिक्दै गर्दा,
लुटियो बाल्यकाल उनीहरूकाे
स्कुलमा पाइला टेक्न नपाउँदै
इकोनोमिक्सको पाठ सिकाइयो ।
उनीहरू जसले परिवारको पेट पाल्न
आफू जत्रैलाई बेलुन र चकलेट बेच्नुपर्छ,
उनीहरू जो दुई छाक टार्नलाई
आमाबुवा सरहका मान्छेसँग १० रुपैयाँका लागि बाझ्नुपर्छ ।
अनुनय विनय गर्नुपर्छ ।
न घाम न पानी भनी दिनभरि
गर्छन् व्यापार उनीहरू
न धुँवाधुलो न हुरी बतास भई हरेकदिन
गर्छन् व्यापार उनीहरू एक छाककाे
आफ्नो जन्मभूमी र जन्मदिने आमा छोडी
आएका काम गरी खान उनीहरू
उज्यालो भविष्य र सादा जीवनकाे खाेजीमा
एकादेशको कथा उनीहरू स्वयं नै
दुनियाको हेपाइ र भेदभाव सहनुपर्ने जीवन
उनीहरूले सहजै थाम्न सकेका छन् ।
“बेलुन आयो बेलुन”
भन्दै हिँड्छन उनीहरू
“बेलुन आयो बेलुन”
भन्दै दौडन्छन् उनीहरू ।
The development of Artificial Intelligence has been a very intriguing topic for many people; especially in the present time, we are in a world where we are so deeply involved with artificial intelligence without even knowing it. To take a few examples, AI decides what ads we see in Facebook and Instagram, what videos we would like to see next in YouTube and TikTok as well as what we would like to purchase in Daraaz. There are even more fascinating AI-based bots like ChatGPT and Midjourney which have set a new age of AI in today’s world. Chess engines like Stockfish have grown to the stage that even the best chess grandmasters can’t win a single game against it. These are only a few of the many examples of AI, and day by day the world is being more dependent on Artificial Intelligence.
People often fear AI due to their unmatchable self-learning capacity. It is not unusual to be amazed by how efficiently and quickly an AI can learn things which human beings will never be able to match. The process of teaching a program how to stuff things in an automated way is called machine learning. Basically, machine learning is the main tool which teaches the AI how to behave in different situations and what to do. For example, the AI in a self-driving car learns when to turn right and when to turn left by analyzing various images fed in by the programmer. Machine learning simply automates this process so that the AI becomes self-sufficient to read the situation and act accordingly. Due to this whole thing, AI can learn things a lot faster than human beings can do.
But will AI really grow into a stage where it may be able to annihilate or enslave the human race? It may sound like an exaggeration but if AI is not created, developed, and applied appropriately, it may end up being harmful to people, just like Frankestein. AI systems may be able to make choices and take actions that could have unforeseen consequences for people as they become more complex and evolved. If its goals are not properly linked with human values and interests, an AI system may operate in ways that are detrimental to people in order to achieve its goals. Similarly, AI systems may have unintentional negative effects on people, such as creating biases or fostering discrimination. AI is definitely a powerful tool but criminals may use this as an advantage to harm others by cyberattacks, creating autonomous weapons and many more. But it is a relief that most people or organizations that are working on this technology are doing their best to ensure that AI is used in an ethical manner so that it will not pose danger to any group of people. So, for the time being, we are on the safer side but who knows what the future might hold…
I can hear the night crash on the shore,
What a lovely evening!
Day’s gloomy mama!
It doesn't get much more beautiful and
Lively than this.
The lovely moon walks like a holy queen
In the religious ceremony in her lone condition;
Down into the calm of her heavenly path.
The night, your mission is not lonely!
But, there was a lot of beautiful togetherness,
Mostly in toil.
It’s a bright and breezy night,
The sky is alive with stars.
Over the moon, there’s a cloud, around the home,
Home on the hills, there’s a cloud.
And I can hear the wind’s voice.
सबैको श्वासमा कसैको आशमा,
आफ्नै रहमा बहँदै छु म ।
कसैको प्रयासमा कसैको त्रासमा,
सिर्सिरे हावा म धर्तीको सतहमा ।
बतास भन्छन् मलाई,
नदेख्न सक्छन् कसैले,
न छुन नै सक्छन् कसैले
सक्छन् केवल भरपुर महसुस गर्न ।
सबैको लागि महत्त्वपूर्ण म,
देखी सहदैनन् मलाई किन ?
गाडीको चक्कर लगाई,
प्रदूषित पार्छन् मलाई किन ?
विभिन्न रूपमा उपस्तिथ म
विभिन् रङ्गमा महजुत म,
सारा प्राणीको एक मात्रै
बाँच्ने आधार नै मै हुँ ।
सुवास मेरो पहिचान रे,
दुर्गन्धमा मिसायो कसले ?
विरुवाको बलिदान गरेर
प्राणीमा प्राण त्याग्यो जसले ।
हिजो मात्र कक्षा ११ आए जस्तो लाग्थ्यो,
कति छिट्टै कक्षा १२ अन्तिम अन्तिम भएछ ।
धेरै कुरा फरक भएको छ पहिले र अहिले,
गर्ने कुरा नसाची गर्नु पर्दाे रहेछ पहिले ।
धेरै नयाँ साथीहरूसँग भेट पनि भयो
दुई वर्षकाे समय दुई दिनमै पाे गयाे ।
धेरै किताब पढेँ मैले कति उपन्यास पढेँ,
तीमध्ये कति त पढेर गए केही बाँकी नै रहे ।
नयाँ नयाँ शिक्षकसँग ज्ञान प्राप्त पनि भयो,
गर्ने चाहना धेरै हुँदाहुँदै समय पनि गयाे ।
दुई वर्ष केही रमाइलो गरी पनि बिताएँ,
समय छिट्टै बित्दाे रहेछ याे पनि थाह पाएँ ।
अब १२ काे अन्तिमतिर आइसक्दा बस्दै दिन गन्छु,
यी दुई वर्ष साथसहयाेग दिनेलाई धन्यवाद भन्छु ।
मैले जान अनजानमा कसैलाई चोट पुगेमा दिनु माफी,
अब परीक्षा आइसक्यो अङ्क ल्याउनु पनि छ काफी ।
The misty air, the chills and the rain-
The cold atmosphere, with grief and pain,
The nature of belonging, yearnings I gain
Nobody understands, leaving the poet's words in vain.
Writing these feelings, in a piece of paper,
Hard to portray, I write with blood as ink-
Lonely as the moon, in the void he sinks,
As pure as water but poison he drinks.
As vast as the ocean, he sails his boat-
Under the waves of his own words, with his quill and his coat.
His writings that he understands himself and believes
Nobody else does, he doesn't realize himself, he deceives
Lost in his own paradise, writing these stories-
Growing as an individual, he writes these words-
Climbs from the void himself, mighty he caves up;
Then he escapes from the delusion, from his dream, he wakes up.
My friend, Irene loves to stay inside her room doing something on her own or writing something. She doesn’t love going outside, hanging out with her friends and visiting relatives. She can spend a pretty good time being alone the whole day. She thinks a lot and pens all her thoughts down in her diary. One day I happened to take a glance at her diary; to my wonder, I found out that she has composed quite a few very fine poems, not less than the legendary poets. She talks so little and I often find her boring- yet, her creativity to concretise her feelings is truly amazing. That’s what I like the most about her. Next my friend, Hani, is very fond of going out and she is a good conversationalist. She is smart and charms everybody with her presence. Wherever she goes, she is always surrounded by people. There’s something very appealing about her. She is really interesting and quite practical. But sometimes, I can sense a void inside her.
Yes, the matter I am trying to raise is the issue of extroverts and introverts. Both have their beauties and at the same time their cons. Extroverts intend to fascinate everybody with their presence in every aspect, whereas introverts delve into their own selves. In my opinion, the extremities of either are dangerous. Introverts disconnect themselves from the outer world which is not practical all the time because a time could come when she could be deserted by others. They could lose contact and loneliness could start haunting them. This could also sometimes lead to depression and other mental health issues.
Extroverts seem to be happy as they delight everybody with their exposure, but this doesn’t always make a good impression. Sometimes we often need solitude to discover ourselves. A sort of hollowness could be pinching them, in my opinion. A time could come when they could face an identity crisis. They could even find themselves splitted into different faces and could fail to catch their real identities. The point which is to be noted here is introverts are liked indirectly and extroverts directly. It might be fruitful for society, but deep hollowness that could come within individuals should be handled carefully. Nobody can help to crush our emptiness or the void that we carry, unless they know the tool to crush it: we know the tools much better.
Therefore, balancing both to the expected degree can sustain us. According to me, it gives us real identity and real happiness. That’s why, to me, the middle path is the best path. Being in the middle enables us to control our nature. It enables us to reach the height of self awareness, where we could find everything to be well balanced. Our awareness makes us blissful and peaceful. We are not even deterred by any hullabaloo. We remain constant like a steady burning candle amidst the wind… and there lies the true happiness and the real goal of life.

आजकाल मान्छेमा घमण्ड भनूँ कि अहङ्कार सम्बन्धहरू कसले पहिला बोलाउँछन् भन्दैमा सकिन थालेको छ । यो कुरा ममा नै पनि लागु हुन्छ । पहिले बोलाउँदैमा सम्मान अथवा केही घट्छ होला तर त्यो सकिएको सम्बन्ध के त ? म आफैँ पहिला नबोलाउने भएकाले कति सम्बन्धहरू पछाडि छुटाएकी छु। यसो याद गर्दागर्दै एउटा मनमा आज प्रश्न उठ्यो साच्चै मेरो यस्तो बानीले मैले कति जना साथी गुमाए हुँला त ? तर अर्को मनमा छुट्टै प्रश्न आयो आखिर मैले नबोलाए पनि उनीहरूले पनि त बोलाउन सक्थे । भनिन्छ नि मान्छेको बानी परिसकेपछि त्यो मान्छेबाट लागेको बानीबाट छुट्न गाह्रो हुन्छ । साच्चै पनि हो रहेछ । त्यो मान्छे बोल्दा र नबोल्दाको फरक धेरै हुने रहेछ । यस्ताे कुरा साथीभाइ वा प्रेमीप्रेमीका बीच त थियो तर मलाई आफ्नै बाबा र छोराछाेरीबिच नि त्यस्तो ? कसले पहिला बोलाउने भनेर विवाद आउँछ जस्तो लागेकै थिएन ।
हिजो घरको बैठक कोठामा मेरा आदरणीय ठुलो बाबालाई मैले सोधेँ " ठुलोबुबा हजुरले दाइलाई फोन गर्नुभएको छैन रे त "ठुलोबुबाको उतर आयो त्यसले चाहिँ मलाई कहाँ गरेको छ र ?" यो सुनेर खै किन हो मेरो मनमा आचानक खुकुरी नै प्रहार भए जस्तो भयो । अनि यसो दाइलाई सम्झेँ त्यो बिरानो सहरमा बसेको मेरो दाइलाई पक्कै यहाँ भएका मान्छेको याद त आउँछ होला । अनि याद आयो दाइ गएका दिनमा फोनमा नदेखिएका त्यी आँसुका ढिका । मैले ठुलोबाबालाई धेरै सम्झाउन खोजे तर, खै ठुलोबुबा अझै पनि दाइले फोन गरेपछि मात्र उठाउनुहुन्छ । सायद ठुलो भएर हो कि के हो म बुझ्न सक्दिनँ।
अब हुन त आफ्नै हालत त्यही नै छ । म पनि कसैलाई पहिले बोलाउन चाहदिनँ । तर, कुनै बेला एउटा मान्छे नि हुँदो रहेछ जोसँग बोलेपछि खुसी जस्तो मिल्ने रहेछ । तर त्यो मान्छेले मैले मात्र बोलाउने प्रतीक्षा गर्छ भने सधैँ म नै पहिले बोलाइराख्नु ? कसले पहिले बोलाउने को पहिला बोल्ने भनेर भाउ खोज्दाखोज्दै धेरै सम्बन्धहरू त्यसै टुट्छन् । आखिर हुन त चाहे मित्रताको होस् या अरू सम्बन्ध होस् दुवैबाट सम्बन्ध जोगाउन कोसिस त हुनु पर्यो नि । सायद यही बुझेर म कोहीसँग पनि त्यस्तो धेरै बोल्न खोज्दिनँ तर, जुन सम्बन्धमा कदर हुँदैन झन् त्यो सम्बन्ध त खै नुनविनाको खाना जस्तै हुन्छ । त्यसैले सम्बन्धको कदर गर्नु ठुलो कुरा हो । सम्बन्ध जोगाउनका लागि दुवैतिरको साथ र सद्भावको आवश्यकता पर्छ । एउटा हातले मात्र ताली त बज्दैन सम्बन्धको के कुरा गर्नु र ?
Fashion is a way for people to express themselves through the clothing, accessories, and makeup they wear. It has been a part of human culture for thousands of years and continues to evolve and change with the times.
Fashion trends are influenced by many different factors, such as social and cultural movements, the media, and technological advancements. Some trends may last for a short time, while others may become classics and last for decades.
The fashion industry is a large and influential one, with designers, retailers, and marketers working together to create and sell clothing and accessories to consumers. The fashion market is worth trillions of dollars and has a significant impact on the global economy.
In recent years, there has been a rise in fast fashion, where retailers produce cheap and quickly made clothing to keep up with consumer demand. However, this has raised concerns about the environmental impact of fashion and the ethics of cheap labor in the manufacturing process.
Despite these challenges, fashion remains an important way for people to express their identity and individuality. Clothing can communicate social status, cultural identity, and personal style, and can be a powerful tool for self-expression.
Fashion has also been used as a means of social change throughout history, with clothing being used to express political and social movements, promote gender and racial equality, and challenge traditional beauty standards.
In recent years, there has been a movement towards more inclusive fashion, with brands and designers creating clothing that is accessible to people of all sizes, genders, and ethnicities. This has led to a growing acceptance of diverse beauty standards and a rise in body positivity.
To summarize, it seems that fashion is a way for people to express themselves and communicate their personality, beliefs, and values through the clothing, accessories, and makeup they wear. While the fashion industry has its challenges, it remains an integral part of our culture and will continue to evolve and adapt to the changing needs and values of society.
Fashion sense is a term used to describe an individual's ability to select clothing that is both stylish and appropriate for a given occasion. A person's fashion sense is often influenced by their personal style, cultural background, and societal norms. While fashion trends may come and go, having a strong sense of personal style can help individuals to feel confident and express their unique personalities.
One of the most important aspects of fashion sense is understanding what clothing is appropriate for different occasions. For example, formal events such as weddings and job interviews typically require more formal attire, such as a suit or dress. In contrast, casual outings with friends or family may call for more relaxed clothing, such as a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Understanding the appropriate dress code for different situations can help individuals to avoid social faux pas and feel more comfortable in their clothing.
Another key aspect of fashion sense is understanding what colors and patterns work well together. While there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to color coordination, certain combinations can be more aesthetically pleasing than others. For example, complementary colors (such as red and green, or blue and orange) can create a visually appealing contrast. On the other hand, too many bold colors or clashing patterns can create a chaotic and overwhelming look.
In addition to understanding color coordination, having a strong sense of personal style is also important. This involves developing a signature look or aesthetic that reflects one's personality and interests. For some people, this may involve wearing bold prints or statement pieces, while others may prefer a more minimalist and understated style. Having a clear understanding of one's personal style can help to streamline the shopping and selection process, as individuals can focus on items that fit within their preferred aesthetic.
Another important aspect of fashion sense is understanding the importance of fit. While certain clothing items may be on-trend or visually appealing, if they do not fit properly they can detract from one's overall look. For example, a too-tight shirt can create unsightly bulges or make it difficult to move comfortably, while a too-loose shirt can appear sloppy or unprofessional. Understanding one's body type and finding clothing that fits well can help to create a polished and put-together look.
Finally, fashion sense also involves understanding the role of accessories in completing an outfit. Accessories can include jewelry, hats, scarves, and shoes, among other items. These items can help to add interest and personality to an outfit, as well as tie different pieces together. However, it is important to use accessories in moderation, as too many accessories can create a cluttered and overwhelming look.
In conclusion, having a strong fashion sense involves understanding what clothing is appropriate for different occasions, coordinating colors and patterns, developing a personal style, prioritizing fit, and using accessories in moderation. While fashion trends may come and go, having a solid understanding of these foundational principles can help individuals to feel confident and express their unique personalities through their clothing. Whether one prefers bold prints and statement pieces or a more minimalist aesthetic, having a strong fashion sense can help to create a polished and put-together look.

Is it okay to not be okay?
I don't know what I've done or what I want,
But here I am, with all the guilt and stress.
People ask ‘Are you okay?’-
And I respond with a smile on my face, ‘I am okay’, even if I know I am not okay.
How easy is it to lie to someone?
How easy it is to fake it, even when you know you are not okay?
I just want myself to be with;
Be lonely, and want no one around;
Yet I want to be cared and loved-
Want someone to be there beside me-
Despite having everyone around,
Why do I feel excluded?
Why do I think I'm not okay when I know I'm okay?
I want to do something,
But here I am, trembling around with nothing.
Is this a time or phase in my life?
Where you feel like you aren't okay, even though you are.
I don't know why I'm sad, but it is making me sad-
I try to be happy, but I can't.
I think I've lost everything, even though I haven't.
I feel I don't have anything to do with life,
Even though I have so much to do.
Am I okay?
I just wanna try to be okay, even though I don't know how?
Why do I feel this void right in my soul?
हाँसखेल गर्दागर्दै बित्यो मेराे बाल्यकाल ।
कलिलो उमेरमा किताबको बोझले भयो बेहाल ।।
सानै हुँदा किताबको भारले दबेको बाल्यकाल ।
रमाइलो गर्न रोक्छ अहिले,बनेर पढाइ नै ढाल ।।
बाल्यकाल भने किताब रटान मै कति गए ।
मेरा रमाइला क्षण यादमै सीमित रहे ।।
बरू आनन्द सानै हुँदा अहिले पो बोझ भयो ।
एक पलको हाँसो पनि देखी नसही छिनमै गायब भयो ।।
धेरै साथी भाइसँग सानैमा डुलियो खोलानाला ।
कहिले भकुन्डाे कहिले कबड्डी खेलेरै गयो कैयौँ छाला ।।
कहिले चुङ्गी त कहिले भकुन्डी खेलेर नै गए ।
निराश छु आज, ती पल याद मै सीमित रहे ।।
