What a day it was,
When I tried to remove my birthmark with a knife.
A little curve dark and misunderstood,
A mark I thought was unwanted.
What a day it was,
When I put the corn inside my nose.
Unable to breathe, I began to cry,
Till suffocation took me nigh.
What a day it was, with confidence so high,
When I used to sing a song.
Lyrics flying here and there, voice cracking,
Until my throat began to dry.
What a day it was,
When I poked my eyes in a room with dim light.
Tomorrow was my birthday, a day so near,
But instead, I was found in the hospital, in fear.
What a day it was when I refused to go to school,
My loud screams echoed, breaking the school’s compound.
Returning home, I proudly told,
‘Phoebe did not agree to go to school,’ confused why people were laughing.
All the times I heard my mom called ‘Phoebe, do not do it,’
She repeated, ‘Phoebe, be careful.’
But silly me did not agree until I gave it a try.
If I did, I would always cry.
Everything made sense for me till then.
Looking now, it seems so silly,
But in each mistake,
There was a lesson to be learned.
When I remember those moments,
I catch myself smiling like a dumb person.
If I could, I would still want to go back,
But sadly, I can’t.
I miss my childhood more than anything,
The past I can never get over,
The past where I enjoyed myself, with no pain and no gain,
And the past, which began with a smile on my face.
My childhood is the best part of my life,
I have loved and cherished each moment.
A source of laughter, joy, and peace
Comes from my childhood.
यी आकाशमा भएका सबै ताराहरू
हाम्रा सपनाहरू झैँ छन्, ताराहरू
कहिले एउटा झर्छ भने कहिले अर्को झर्छ
तिम्रो र मेरो सपना आज यी ताराले भरेको
आकाशको तल छन्,कहिले पूरा हुने हो थाह छैन ।
म तिमीलाई हेर्दै रमिता मनाउँछु
तिमी ताराहरुलाई हेरी आशा राख्नु
तिमी यी ताराभन्दा केही घटी छैनौ
आकाशभन्दा धेरै त तिमी सुन्दर छौ
यी ताराभन्दा धेरै त तिमी चम्किन्छौ ।
मलाई मेराे भविष्य तिमीसँग बिताउन मन छ
मेरा सपना तिम्रासँग जोड्न मन छ
हामीसँगै जीवन बिताउने दृश्य हेरी बस्छु
हामीसँगै भएको कथा बनाई बस्छु ।
तिमी जुनलाइ हेर म तिमीलाइ हेर्छु
तिम्राे बोली बस् म सुनिरहन्छु
तिम्राे चित्र मेरो दिमागमा कोरिरहन्छु
तिम्रो आवाजको गीत बनाई बस्छु ।
यी आकाशमा भएका सब्बै ताराहरू
हाम्रो सपना झैँ छन्
कहिले एउटा झर्छ भने कहिले अर्को झर्छ
तिम्रो र मेरो सपना
आज यी ताराले भरेको आकाशको तल छन्
आकाशको तल छन् ।
कुनै एउटा गाउँमा एक शिशुको जन्म भयो । जहाँ मानिसको दैनिक जीवन रङ्गले भरिएको थियो, तर शासक भने अँध्यारो औँसी जस्तै थिए । अर्जुनको जन्मले गाँउमा एउटा खुसीको प्रकाश छाएकाे थियाे । उनी गरिब परिवारमा जन्मे पनि ठुलाे हुँदै जाँदा उनमा असमानता र न्यायको लागि अटल जोश थियो ।
त्यस देशका राजा चाहिँ भ्रष्टाचारमा डुबेका थिए । गाउँलेहरूको श्रम र मिहिनेतलाई धनीहरूलाई बेचेर राजा आफू मोजमस्ती गर्थे । गाउँलेहरूलाई दमनमा राखेर, धम्की दिएर, धेरै कर उठाएर, राजाले गाउँलेहरूको आवाज दबाएका थिए । अर्जुनले आफ्नो गाउँका मानिसहरूको पीडा देखेका र बुझेका थिए । बुढाबुढीहरूको सङ्घर्ष, गरिबीले रूवाएका बच्चाहरू, राजाको न्यायले छुट्टाएको परिवारहरू र आफूले भोगेका पीडाहरू । राजाको यस्तो निर्दयी शासनलाई हटाउन अर्जुनले आफैँले नै केही गर्ने निर्णय लिए । पुरातन ठुलाठालुले सुनाएका कथाहरूबाट प्रेरणा पाएर अर्जुनले न्यायको लागि साहसी खोज सुरू गरे । उनले आफ्नै गाउँठाउँका आम जनताबाट सहयोगीहरू खोजे । यस्ता मानिस जो परिवर्तन र नयाँपनका खोजीमा थिए । सँगै सबै मिलेर एउटा राजालाई चुनौती दिने र राजाको विरोध गर्ने एउटा समूह तयार भयाे।
राजाको दरबारको ढोकामा हातहतियार लिएर जाँदा राजाको सैनिकले रोक्ने र आक्रमण गर्न नमिल्ने भएको कारण उनीहरूले अर्कै रणनीति बनाए । अर्जुन र अरूले गाँउका मानिसहरूलाई आशा र एकताको सन्देश फैलाउन थाले । किसानदेखि विद्वान् सबैलाई क्रान्तिको सन्देशवाहक बनाउन थाले, सबैलाई आफ्नो अधिकारका बारेमा शिक्षा दिन थाले ।
गाउँमा क्रान्तिको आवाज फैलिएझैँ, राजाका सल्लाहकारहरूले उनलाई आउन लागेको आँधीबारे चेतावनी दिए । शासकको मनमा डरको भावना जन्मियो, उनले झन् आफ्नो शक्तिलाई बलियो बनाए । तैपनि यसले झन् क्रान्तिकारीहरूको ज्वालालाई मात्र बढावा दियो ।
अर्जुनले कुेरेको दिन आयो- आन्दोलनको दिन । अर्जुन र उनका सहयोगीहरूले शान्तिपूर्ण आन्दोलन गरे । राजाको दरबार अगाडि । उनीहरूले हातहतियार बोकेनन्, शान्ति र आशा दिने नाराहरू तयार पारे । ‘हिंसाले समस्या मात्र निम्त्याउँछ, शान्ति नै अनन्त समाधान हो ।’
पीडामा परेका मानिसहरू न्यायको माग गर्दै दरबार अगाडि आवाज उठाउँदै थिए । कुनै समयमा सबैभन्दा शक्तिशाली र सर्वोच्च दरबारका ढोकाहरू जनताको आवाजले काँपिरहेका थिए ।
दरबारको ढोका हल्लियो । त्यँही थिए, राजा । सर्वोच्च शासक अुनहार र मन दुवैमा डर भरिएको । अर्जुन अग्लो भएर उभिएँ । आँखाको नजर अटल राखेर । उनले राजासँग शान्तपूर्वक कुरा गरे । उनले राजालाई राजाले आफूले गरेका गल्ती सम्झाए, ती गलत हुन् भने । उनले राजालाई शासन छोड्न भने । राजा शासन छाेड्न सहमत भए ।
हप्ता दिनपछि, अदालतमा मुद्दा सुरू भयो । सबै जनताको टोली भएको कारण, न्यायधीशहरूले भ्रष्ट नभई, न्याय दिनु पर्यो । अदालतले राजाले गरेको काम गलत र आफ्नै राज्यलाई हानी पुर्याएको भने । राजालाई आफ्नो शासन छोड्न आदेश दिइयो ।
अर्जुनको गाँउ एउटा भ्रष्ट र अनुचित शासकबाट मुक्त भयो । गाँउमा स्वतन्त्रता र एकताको नयाँ भावना प्रतिस्थापन भयो । अर्जुन आफू शासन नबनिकन, जनतालाई नै नयाँ शासक चुन्न लगाए । अर्जुन निर्देशन र आशाको एउटा किरणको रूपमा उभिए । त्यसपछि, राजालाई चुनौती दिने व्यक्तिको नामले अर्जुनको कथा वर्षौँसम्म फैलियो ।
Always lived in darkness,
always alone,
could find a friend but
didn't dare to.
A ghost is all I need.
It haunts me more
than I do to myself,
always waiting at the end of the bridge.
It's a sad story, my friend,
a story that came in my dream.
The voice says, "Tell them, tell them what you did."
But I always got scared.
It's a haunted night.
He comes in my dreams
and warns me,
telling me to find his body.
The body which
was murdered,
the body whose
murderer was me.
In the past, the world of fashion and beauty was often exclusive, leaving many individuals feeling marginalized and pressured to conform to conventional standards. This historical context emphasized a limited and sometimes even prejudiced definition of beauty and style, sidelining those who didn't fit the established molds. It perpetuated outdated beauty norms, restricting self-expression, and imposing societal expectations on people, constraining their ability to embrace their true identities.
However, in recent times, there has been a transformative shift towards inclusive fashion and beauty. This paradigm shift celebrates diversity and empowers individuals from all backgrounds, body types, and personal styles. It underscores the idea that fashion and beauty should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their differences. In this new era of inclusivity, the fashion industry acknowledges the beauty in embracing all body types, from petite to plus size, ensuring that no one is left behind in the style conversation.
Inclusive beauty has also made significant progress, breaking free from outdated beauty norms and recognizing the multitude of forms that beauty can take. Makeup brands have expanded their shade ranges to cater to a broader spectrum of skin tones, promoting the belief that everyone deserves to feel beautiful and seen. Moreover, inclusive beauty celebrates natural beauty, including freckles, scars, and imperfections, conveying the message that perfection is not a prerequisite for beauty.
In addition to this, inclusive fashion empowers individuals to express their identity without being confined by societal expectations. This includes the introduction of gender-neutral attire that knows no gender boundaries. It also incorporates adaptive clothing, which is a crucial development that caters to those with physical disabilities by offering fashionable and functional clothing, contributing to inclusivity and sustainability.
Furthermore, inclusive fashion and beauty provide a platform for celebrating cultural diversity, with traditional clothing and hairstyles from various cultures being embraced and incorporated into mainstream fashion, contributing to cultural appreciation.
While inclusive fashion and beauty have made remarkable progress, there is still much work to be done. As consumers, we can continue to support brands that advocate inclusivity and sustainability, ensuring that the fashion and beauty industries continue to evolve in a direction that celebrates diversity and self-expression.
This movement towards inclusivity in fashion and beauty is not just a passing trend; it's a significant shift in the way we perceive and celebrate beauty and style. It's about recognizing that beauty comes in many forms and that personal style should be a source of empowerment, not restriction. It's about acknowledging the unique attributes and qualities that make each individual special and embracing them.
In conclusion, inclusive fashion and beauty embody the celebration of diversity, offering an opportunity to break free from the conventional molds of beauty and fashion while also fostering greater self-confidence and acceptance. These movements empower individuals to celebrate their unique identities and, collectively, contribute to creating a more diverse and inclusive world for all, marking a stark departure from the exclusionary practices of the past. This transformative journey towards inclusivity represents not only a step forward in fashion and beauty but also in societal values, encouraging a world where everyone can feel beautiful and confident in their own skin.

हिमालयको मुटुमा रहेकाे मेराे देश
जहाँ सपनाहरू आरोहण हुन्छन्
रहस्यमय सहर र सपनाकाे याे मेराे देशमा
जहाँ कथाहरू कहिल्यै समाप्त हुँदैनन् ।
याे विराट ठुलो सहर काठमाडौँमा,
बस्ने र सजाउने सपनाकाे सबको रहर।
ढाकिएको छ बूती र घना सहरले
याे सँगै मानिसका ढाकिएका छन्
अनगन्ति मानिसका रहरहरू ।
धार्मिक आस्थाकाे धराेहर पशुपतिनाथ,
जहाँ गर्छ श्रद्धाको शान्त आत्माले ग्रहण ।
बौद्धनाथ अग्लो उभिएर हेर्दैछ सहर ,
नेपाली आकाश मुनि छ यो शान्तिको स्तूप ।
हलचल छैनन् मानिस जहाँ आशा बाेकेर
बिच सडकमै खम्बा बनेर रहेका छन्,
परम्परा र आधुनिकता बिच यो घुमाउरो बस्ती
जहाँ संस्कृतिहरू मिल्छन्, सबै एकअर्कासँग।
तन, मन र धनकाे नाता गाँस्दै
मित्रताकाे सम्बन्ध गाँसिरहेछ
याे काठमाडाैँ आश्रयकाे सहर
सभ्यता र रहरकाे सहर काठमाडाैँ ।
A person works during the day,
Toils through the night without delay.
A person gives up play and delight,
In the pursuit of goals, day and night.
A person reads new books to learn,
Gaining knowledge for life's every turn.
New things acquired, lessons earned,
To be applied as the world is discerned.
A person doesn’t focus on the result,
But on health, ensuring it's not tumult.
Struggling and working hard each day,
Until the destination is in sight, they say.
Doesn’t care about people’s comments,
It's a personal journey, not a contest.
A personal destination, where they go,
In life's journey, their own path to sow.
In a small town called Woodland, there lived a curious young girl named Lily. Lily was imaginative and adventurous. She often explored the woods near her home with her best friend, Ben.
One sunny afternoon, while Lily and Ben were playing near a giant oak tree, they discovered something amazing: a hidden door under the tree! They were very surprised and curious to know what was behind it.
While their hearts were pounding with excitement, Lily and Ben opened the door and found a ladder leading up to the tree. They climbed higher and were surprised to find a small house hidden in a tree branch.
But this wasn't just a treehouse; it was magical! There were books that could transport them to distant lands and paintings on the walls that came to life when they touched them. There were also talking animals, like a wise old owl and a mischievous squirrel.
Lily and Ben spent the day in the treehouse, having amazing adventures. They visited a castle in the land of talking animals, explored the deep sea on a submarine, and even traveled back in time to meet famous people from history.
One day, they discovered a magic map in the treehouse that showed them a place called Enchanted Lake. The map said that whoever finds the enchanted lake will be granted a special wish.
Lily and Ben decided to embark on a new adventure and find the enchanting lake. They followed the map through the forest, crossed a rickety bridge, and finally reached a beautiful sparkling lake surrounded by bright flowers.
When they dipped their fingers in the water, the lake's surface sparkled, and a friendly water spirit appeared. He asked them what their wish was. Lily and Ben thought for a moment and decided to wish for happiness and kindness to their town.
The water spirit granted their wish, and they returned to Woodland. To their surprise, the town was filled with happiness and kindness. Everyone helped each other, and the whole town was like one big family.
Lily and Ben realized that the real magic was the kindness they had always held in their hearts, and the treehouse helped them discover that. They continued to visit the treehouse, experiencing exciting adventures, but they also shared their newfound kindness with everyone they met.
The Magic Tree House became a special place in Woodland, where children came to live their adventures and discover the magic of kindness. Lily and Ben knew that kindness was the most magical thing and that it could make the world a better place.
Since that day, the town of Woodland has lived in joy and kindness, and the magical treehouse continues to be a place of wonder and imagination for generations to come. Lily and Ben's adventures taught them that true magic can be found in kindness and that it can create a better world for everyone.
हरियालीले भरिएकाे डाँडा पारिकाे त्याे गाउँ
शान्त स्वभावका मानिसहरू त्याे मन पर्ने ठाउँ
वनका शान्त रुखहरूले दिने चिसाे हावा
सँगै बहने कलकल गर्दै दाैडिरहेकाे खाेला
त्याे पारिकाे सुन्दर शान्त, गाउँ
माया लाग्छ मलाई म जन्मेकाे ठाउँ
बुझ्न मन लाग्छ प्रकृतिकाे चाेखाे मायामा
र हाउभाऊ, भन्छ प्रकृति घुम मेरै छायामा
आएर मेराे हात समाऊ भन्छ ।
उता मिली बस्छन् आफ्नै परिवार
सहयाेग सबैलाई छैन कसैलाई तिरष्कार
कसैलाई दुःख परे मद्दत पनि गर्छन्
काम गर्छन् मिलीजुली
छाउँछ खुसीयाली मनमा
उमङ्ग छाउँछ याे मेराे तनमा
हिमाल, पहाड, तराईबासी हामी
सबकाे मन नेपाली
सहर छाेडी त्याे बाल्यकालमा बसेकाे गाउँ
माया लाग्छ मलाई म जन्मेकाे ठाउँ
हावापानी बेग्लै छ त्यहाँ
यता बसे पनि मन मेराे छ त्यता ।
भावना एक प्रकारको अनन्त र अमूर्त,
म त्यो कल्पनामा डुब्न चाहन्छु
म त्याे संसार हेर्न चाहन्छु
धेरै कुरा म भन्न चाहन्छु,
दुखको कुरा म सक्दिनँ।
अनुभूति शब्दमा के बयान गरुँ
भन्न नसकिने चिज रहेछ
देखाउन नमिल्ने चिज रहेछ,
वा हामी एकदमै बस्छौँ,
त्यो भावना हो ।
कठिन समयमा बुझ्नलाई
कसैलाई पाउन गाह्रो हुन सक्छ,
चिन्ता नगर म यहाँ छु।
म तिमीलाई बुझ्नेछु र,
तिमीलाई बुझाउँला।
तिमी रुन सक्छौ,
तिमी हाँस्न सक्छौ
तिमी चिच्याउन सक्छौ
तर आफैलाई घृणा नगर
घृणाले संसार चल्दैन
संसारकाे सार अनाैठाे छ ।
तिमी मेरो लागि प्रेरणा हौ,
तिमी मेरो उचाइमा साथमा उभियौ,
मेराे सहारा र जीवन बनेर
जीवनकाे मूल्य र महत्त्व बुझेर ।
प्रिय तिमी तिमी नै हाै
मन लागेको कुरा गर,
विगतलाई फर्केर नहेर,
यो पीडादायी पनि हुन सक्छ,
याे अतीतले वर्तमान बिगार्न सक्छ
वर्तमानले भविष्य सुधार्छ ।
वर्तमानमा म अझै राम्रो गर्न सक्छु,
मेरो मनले मस्तिष्कले मलाई भन्छ,
भलाइ र सहयाेग एक सन्तुष्टि
सन्तुष्टि नै जीवनकाे अर्थ
नफाल्नु खेर समय यत्तिकै व्यर्थ ।
बेवास्ता गरे
दुख्न सक्छ,
पीडा हुन्छ,
जब समय उड्छ
यो त्यसै निको हुनेछ।
